Lee Hi's Song 'ONLY' Continues To Bless Everyone's Ears As It Hits 100 Million Views on YouTube!!

My favorite Lee Hi song just reached 100m views on YouTube! It's time to celebrate this milestone for her. The song is called ONLY and it was released 2 years ago, Aug 27 of year 2021 to be exact. 

I could fully remember that when the music video came out, it was during Covid pandemic. I was on quarantine for 7 days to complete my requirement for my next job. During that time, it was more like a comeback for me working again. I got burnout for 1 and a half year and then decided to come out of that depressing state of not having anything going on for a long time. It was a scary decision to leave that depressing comfort, it's almost as if I don't want to leave that state despite it being depressing. I guess that's what comfort zone is all about, it poisons your brain not to do anything, it poisons you to be scared of experiencing something new again. This is why I am so thankful that I am out of that toxicity, I owe myself to challenged and get excited living each day. 

Anyways, that was the scenario in my life when this song came out from Lee Hi. It holds a special place in my heart because this song feels like it's comforting. Yes, it comforted me during that time wherein I was doubting whether I could make it to my new job or not. Guess what? I made it far, 2 years now in that new work I was talking about.

Hmmm... I did not specifically searched for the lyrics of the song to make it special to me, the voice of Lee Hi and the visuals were enough to win my heart. Lee Je Hoon was one of my favorite Korean actors and Won Jin Ah was a familiar face as I watched her in one of my favorite story in a drama which is 'She Would Never Know'. Everything went smoothly for this music video I'd say, they perfectly made the song more memorable and heartfelt. They have great chemistry and I hope they reunite in a drama in the near future. 

Congratulations to this song, to Lee Hi and to Jay Park's agency which Lee Hi is under (AOMG Official). I hope this song and music video remain timeless so the old and new generation could listen to this masterpiece anytime and anywhere.

The Ending We All Wanted For Rowoon And Won Jin Ah In She Would Never Know Episode 16

This is it guys, the ending! We've been trough a lot with this kdrama and I honestly got attached with it. The viewership ratings of She Would Never Know in Korea may not be that well, not surpassing 2%, but I really liked this story a lot! Somehow, I could relate to the characters' story especially Yoon Song Ah and Chae Hyun Seung's. The one sided love finally getting reciprocated is one of the most fulfilling event one could experience in their lives. Chae Hyun Seung showed us that sincerity and endless efforts will all one day blossom into a beautiful outcome. The will to never give up on someone that you truly love, that may be foolish for some but chivalrous and romantic for others. Hyun Seung's love for Song Ah was real and powerful that go through against the barriers of one sided love, ending up capturing sunbae's heart. This story is really heartwarming and I feel so proud of Hyun Seung.

Won Jin Ah To Win Back Rowoon In She Would Never Know Episode 15

I completely understood where Hyun Seung was coming from with how he treats Song Ah after the break up. I mean, he has the right to be angry to her for not holding onto him while they were far from each other. But I also understood why Song Ah broke up with him too. Seeing the one you love suffering because of you is also a detestable feeling that most cannot endure, and Song Ah is one of those. 

Won Jin Ah Chose Between Rowoon And Her Dream In She Would Never Know Episode 13

I took the relationship of Yoon Song Ah and Chae Hyun Seung very challenging from the start despite them displaying sweetness all the time after they got together. It's true that the involvement of Song Ah with Lee Jae Shin was a challenge too but I do believe that the hardest one will be their maturity level. The sunbae-hoobae relationship that developed into lovers, the dreams were already set even before they got together. When Hyun Seung showed up at the last scene to stop sunbae from leaving to Europe, that was such a turn off for me. It clearly shows the difference of their priorities.

She Would Never Know Office Environment Set-Up

I really wanted to show my appreciation over this topic so I'm writing a blog post solely about it. I think it's a topic that is pretty much relatable for most of us who's working in a corporate world, or just working in general. 

I've been into many offices now, and I've experienced different kinds of working environment. I've been in a small firm when I was starting out to being part of one of the biggest developer companies in our country. I'd say that the more you level up, the more stressful the work you'll face and so I think it's really important to have an office environment that wouldn't add more stress to your work. I do believe everyone would agree to that as well. 

Our mental health is very important and just because you wanted to earn a lot of money doesn't mean you have to sacrifice that. In order to achieve that, it meant we have to choose the what we think is the best office environment to be in. If you chose to be in an office that has nothing but toxicity for a long period of time is already your fault. It's the same as not respecting yourself, you just let yourself continue to deteriorate in an office just to earn money. Think about that. 

Rowoon And Won Jin Ah's Relationship Now Out In The Open In She Would Never Know Episode 12

Lee Jae Shin finally came out from his hideout and the first person he wanted to meet was his only true love in life. I feel bad for him, but it's his fault from the very beginning. He took advantage of Song Ah, he had choices to tell the truth in the past and he chose to be a coward. 

Talking now about the present, I know that Lee Jae Shin has the very right to be sad and lonely after what had happened with his life but I think it's about time the he moves on from it. It ain't easy as the way I speak but he's already taking a step forward now by leaving everything behind that made him lose himself, so I could only hope he continues to do so. 

Won Jin Ah And Rowoon Are The Sweetest Couple In She Would Never Know Episode 11

Hyun Seung and sunbae together as a couple is the sweetest thing we can enjoy throughout the show. It's a reward to all of us who have suffered the push and pull approach the two have played in this drama. I do shamelessly confess that I couldn't stop giggling whenever the two pop out on the screen and do some couple things. They are still in the early stage of their relationship, and we all know what it feels like, so it's understandable if other viewers find it the cutest and sweetest too. That's the stage where the magic happens in the relationship anyways. 

Rowoon And Won Jin Ah Shared Their First Kiss In She Would Never Know Episode 10

Oh yes! We started off with Hyun Seung being hoobae-zoned for the first half of this series and now we're here with him finally kissing sunbae. That was the progress we've been all waiting for! Lol 

Ahh, seriously, I really like their dynamics now. Every time they are together made the whole series lighter and filled with butterflies. I love how this story is going now with them being together as a real couple. Maybe it's the real taste of sweet victory after seeing Hyun Seung getting what he had been working so hard non stop for. Pursuing his sunbae wasn't so bad at all. Rejections all forgotten now! 

Won Jin Ah Confesses To Rowoon In She Would Never Know Episode 9

So this is exactly where we are going now in the second half of this drama with sunbae Yoon Song Ah living up to her feelings for Hyun Seung. The first half was more of Hyun Seung's effort in making her fall and guess what, his hard work really paid off. I really liked the last scene where Song Ah came to Hyun Seung for comfort. Ice cream was obviously an excuse but she probably didn't expect that Hyun Seung would see through her. The warm hug was so romantic! I think this is the best move Hyun Seung did so far in the show, and it wasn't really creepy as what he's used to do. This time sunbae was the one who came to him, she's the one seeking for his presence because she's realizing that the person she wanted to spend time to feel better was with him! Wow! Talk about smooth progress of their relationship. I really like it a lot!

So far, I really am liking this drama more and more. Although I'm getting concerned with the actress Won Jin Ah for having not so good outfits. This episode she looked like a character from Star Wars, really. I hope the production team would be mindful about the actors/actresses' outfits because it really is an eye sore while watching if they don't. lol 

Won Jin Ah Misses Rowoon By Her Side In She Would Never Know Episode 8

Like I've been telling in my reviews for the previous episodes, Hyun Seung is someone obsessive over his love that makes him immature. That's what episode 8 clearly manifested with Hyun Seung's ex from the past came back. Look how irritated Hyun Seung became when the girl was pushing herself to him. Then he realized that they were the same, her to him and him to sunbae Song Ah. Phew! Truth hurts, Hyun Seung. 

Hyun Seung Got Rejected Again In She Would Never Know Episode 7

Every time Yoon Song Ah sunbae rejects Chae Hyun Seung, it really sting a lot but there's a difference this time on this episode. When she tried to explain further about where her decision of rejecting him came from, it's her way saying to Hyun Seung to give her more time and heal before attending to his feelings. I honestly read that move as a progress of their relationship. She didn't want him to leave her life, it's evident how she starts to unconsciously think about Hyun Seung's feelings and well being.

Rowoon Was Ecstatic Over His Sunbae's News In She Would Never Know Episode 6

Hyun Seung and Song Ah's separation was postponed for the meantime but I have a feeling that someday she will go in Europe to grab the opportunity. That's the best way for her, setting aside personal issues and go for her dream. But I guess that ain't easy to do especially now that Jae Shin's fiance, Lee Hyo Joo, is threateningly entering Song Ah's life. 

As of now, Jae Shin is backing off of his subordinate's love life but the damage has already been done with his fiance witnessing his suspicious interaction with her. Everything's going to be complicated starting next episode, I guess, because of this. 

Rowoon and Won Jin Ah Longing For Each Other's Company In She Would Never Know Episode 5

I'm now getting more attracted to this drama than what I've calculated before. After watching this episode, I'm accepting now that the main plot of this will revolve only to Rowoon swooning over his Sunbae and they'll develop mutual love over the time because of his undying efforts to win sunbae's heart. It may come across to viewers as shallow or very concrete but I think if the story could successfully show the beauty of love coming from a younger person then it'll definitely is going to be a good one. And now that we're on episode 5, this concept is slowly becoming distinguishable. 

She Would Never Know | Episodes 3 and 4

 

I figured out that, with how slow the pacing of this drama is executing, I should react to it every 2 episodes. For now, at least. I think the story is centered to how sunbae  Yoon Song Ah (Won Jin Ah) is coping from her failed love with Lee Jae Shin (Lee Hyun Wook). I could only hope that it wouldn't be the basis of the whole story line, though. We have to move on from it, both Song Ah and the viewers. We shouldn't prolong Chae Hyun Sung's (Ro Woon) pain for the whole 16 episodes. Unless that's his sole purpose, to become someone's temporary aid and will be thrown in the trash once his purpose is served. Aw, that's gonna be painful. Crossing fingers that this drama's story line won't promote that kind of stupidity. Because I am not sure if that really is real love or just a child's play.
