*smooch 2.0*

It's weirdly pleasant to be able to hug you like this. You used to hug me a lot. It's not the same—you were just a friend back then. So, what am I now?

“what an honorable answer.”

Thank you, Noh Shin Woo. I’m serious. If it weren’t for you, I would’ve collapsed on the street from crying. You’re exaggerating.

I want to point out something SO important about this episode…

This scene right here. Omg. I got emotional. The way Pat was originally coming over to continue their teasing, but saw that Pran was in a sad mood so he changed his tune real quick to become a more lighthearted and supportive person for Pran to lean on. They understand each other in ways even their friend groups wouldn’t understand 😭😭

i miss them like crazy

bonus:

Nanon’s acting in this scene was breathtaking.

The subtlety and nuanced approach he took to containing Pran’s sorrow and tears was incredible. He sustained Pran’s struggle to keep from crying and maintained his composure until the perfect moment.

The audience could see Pran struggling but Pat couldn’t and that was so believable. The tears are waiting to tumble from Pran’s eyes were there but were small enough for Pat to not notice, something that is amazing to see as a viewer.

There are so many layers to his performance as Pran, whether it’s his approach to the lines, the micro mannerisms and gestures he uses to show the audience how Pran is actually feeling.

This scene made the audience share in Pran’s pain, whether you wanted to or not. It wasn’t a question of feeling what Pran was feeling. Nanons performance immersed you in it and reached beyond the confines of the screen.
