What a beautifully crafted scene with post-coital Joohae in the bath....everything is at it should be, the physical and emotional intimacy, comfort, playfulness and ardent love are conveyed so well! They are so joyful and relaxed, in the knowledge that they are there for each other now, and forever. Even without a full translation of the text, the facial expressions and body language really capture the mood and feelings perfectly when Joowon finally slips that elegant ring on Haesoo’s delicate finger! “Never take it off,” that is just so romantic....
Which brings me to speculate about the ending! I noticed that Haesoo isn’t wearing the ring when he is caressing and holding a sleeping Joowon, softly whispering his name. I assume this scene is after the shower, because he’s clearly wearing one of Joowon’s huge t-shirts. It could be an oversight in the illustration, but that seems unlikely considering how much thought and care went into conceiving these panels. So, I wonder if he’s going to wear the ring in his ear, because the ring doesn’t necessarily look like it closes all the way around. And, maybe this is because he has matching rings to bestow upon Joowon in a later chapter? Referring to the special gift from Spain that we haven’t seen yet and we know is not a bottle of olive oil.
Haesoo’s important visit to his mother: I’m really glad that he finally has that validation and support from her, that his feelings and happiness matter. It’s a step toward reconciliation that he deserves, even if she doesn’t (ok I still don’t like her). I noticed that she has Haesoo’s bestselling book of his “very ordinary love story” so hopefully she finally understands the depth of Joohae’s bond and feelings for each other. She needs to make amends with Joowon, too, after treating him like a monster to be scorned and reviled when he was just a young guy in love.
