Reviews and Reactions
Do you know what hurts me most? In every timeline, whenever Sun Jae expressed his happiness for Sol to exist in his world, the universe cruelly snatched him from the world altogether. It is like they are mocking him for daring to love her.
Probably the most heartbreaking love story in centuries because wdym changed his love at first sight story to something that shattered me into pieces.
What do you mean the most romantic first encounter didn't happen? What do you mean Sun Jae didn't see the light of his life? What do you mean this time it was Sol who had to wait for 15 years THIS IS ANGST FEST #LovelyRunnerEp13.
One thing I ADORE about Lovely Runner is how it shows Sol and Sun Jae's perspectives of the same situation, albeit in different timelines. The beauty of this show truly lies in its parallels.
Amid all the chaos, I'm happy Sun Jae is alive and well, because trust me no matter what life it is, THIS MAN will fall for Sol. I trust him more than me on this that's our loser bf who will recognize her anywhere!
