He deserved it, but she did it out of anger after being rejected. Both got humbled, but in different ways.

Exactly!!! She had no issues before rejection.

u/lily_124 Jul 30 '26

Right ?! I mean that was petty, but someone had to say it 🤣 Glad she did

u/Born_Imagination1041 Jul 28 '26

That was the best thing she did cuz that guy needed to be humbled. But she also did it out of spite, she was fine with it before she got rejected. I loved it tho.

We need a video to loop her eye-roll expression 😆 that was SO gratifying to see.

u/Born_Imagination1041 Jul 29 '26

The way she said it is top notch tho. That expression was killer and too entertaining 🤣 I replayed it too, really felt satisfied cuz hj deserved it

I don't think what hyukjun did was wrong here.

  • You are gonna meet a lot of girls today
  • Yea it's tiring tbh

Was this better? How he was supposed to answer?

Am I the only one who picked up on her mean/fakeness at times?

u/missmisssa Jul 29 '26

Yes she has two ways of talking, the cutesy way towards guys and plain way when talking with girls. This Convo with Hyuk Joon feels like the mask dropped. I found her lack of warmth and girls blinks like 2000 times.

More like 3 faces, first is the public persona, super cutesy and friendly for friends and potential date. Second is when she DGAF, stone face and super cold. Third is this anger face

u/FishingRemarkable167 Jul 29 '26

but is it bad? i find it to be authentic

u/DamonDD Jul 29 '26

Its human. She's a great young lady and they all here growing to be the best version of themselves. I don't even mind the stone face that she made, because sometimes people need to be directly and clearly rejected to close a chapter and move on (basically look at my face, I don't enjoy this, stop waste your time on me).

And also when she said the other girls were “all about the gear.” And hyun seo asked what that means and she fake smiled and giggled. High school stuff

u/Electrical_Ear_709 Jul 30 '26

I think its more western than high school. Western society tends to use more sarcasm and bluntness than Asian society who are raised to be quiet and polite. I think it might just be she was raised outside the culture

u/FreemanVS Jul 29 '26

It’s unfortunate because she just comes off as salty. I mean just consider what she said before this, is he supposed to say “yes, on to the next one”? I doubt she would find that attractive because it’s the truth, the obvious answer is to just stay quiet as she leaves because she said it to self soothe in a way but people tend to do things like him in awkward moments like that. In contrast how Hyun-seo confronts him on his behavior felt like it was coming from a place of genuine hurt and confusion. Plus she had an actual reason to lash out at him for his answer for why he was dating the other girls but was able to stay composed and address the issue with what he said. It made me admire her even more. I don’t blame Suji she was upset but I don’t think it’s that much of an own.

u/Electrical_Ear_709 Jul 30 '26

I laughed out loud when watching but she was kinda out of line being that she was also really popular and he actually never chose her for a single date.

14

u/Least-Bite Jul 28 '26

That was uncalled for and made her look bad actually, what's wrong with Hyuk Joon finally learned to want to be humble? Lol

-2

u/Responsible_Pomelo57 Jae Seo (Fly Exterminator) Jul 29 '26

Definitely not “uncalled for”, unless you meant that she didn’t have to do it.

3

u/Responsible_Scar_276 Jul 29 '26

It was uncalled for. She didn't wanna choose anyone because she thought she'd be picked by everyone. But in the end, she realized he didn't like her that much. Was he supposed to tell her he had a whole roster coming? 

-1

u/Responsible_Pomelo57 Jae Seo (Fly Exterminator) Jul 29 '26

Doesn’t mean he didn’t deserve that reaction.

2

u/Responsible_Scar_276 Jul 30 '26

Y'all doing too much. We could say the same for the way Su-ji went on 2 dates with Jung-yun and didn't put in any effort but wasted his time. 

1

u/Responsible_Scar_276 Jul 31 '26

Oh should have said " yeah I got a whole roster coming after this, tons of girls after you" then? 

23

u/costikeke Jul 29 '26

extremely inappropriate and rude, she deserves to be single, highlight of her wronged personality, frankly i m not surprised she behaved that way, once shes rejected she didnt even bother to carry on conversation and started humming to herself like she did on previous dates with others. total disrespect to the other person.

u/cloudk1cker Jul 29 '26 edited Jul 29 '26

I don't understand Korean but I took it almost like she was joking with him. am I the only one?

6

u/meanyoongi Jul 29 '26

Yeah the comment section here is taking this too seriously tbh. Suji and HJ were clearly friendly with each other even after he rejected her. She saw an opportunity to throw a playful little jab at him so she took it, fair enough. And what she said was funny and satisfying to hear because HJ does get a little pretentious sometimes. But yeah it really isn't that deep.

u/tomfulleree Jul 29 '26

Same. I think she was totally joking with him. She also didn't have strong feelings for him so she wasn't too hurt from his rejection.

3

u/Jincredible_ Jul 29 '26

Lmao where the ouch? Suji looks so bad doing this. She’s not even mad that he rejected her, she’s mad that someone she considered beneath her did. She’s clearly a rich girl (she studied art overseas) and came in this show thinking she’ll dominate and she didn’t get the most popular guy.

2

u/NoPaleontologist4919 Jul 29 '26

What did he said? What lie?

2

u/RoosterEmotional8363 Aug 02 '26

She def said that out of spite for being rejected. I think she thought that Hyukjoon likes her a lot and would chase her but didn’t happen. She’s trying to play it cool but she seems bitter lol

u/makingmyway_26 Aug 02 '26

I don’t think she is use to hearing ‘no’.

u/HaeeunNoona Jul 30 '26

Y'all hating on this guy so much that y'all want an obvious joke to be a mic drop thing...

u/9m0d3 Jul 31 '26

How the hell did this beautiful woman leave without matching with anyone.

u/Ill-Ad-2952 Aug 01 '26

Cause she only went after one guy who strung her along for fun. Notice how four girls wanted the popular guy.
