[Age of Youth Episode 9]
I love that they are doing this story with girls. The Misaeng feel is back and all my feels are twisted up inside. I think the voiceovers are masterful and do such a good job showing what the lesson and mood is supposed to be.
I think my favorite moment was Yi-Na running down the street in her slippers to give Jin-Myung better shoes for her interview.Â
Iâm so sad that the shoes apparently mattered simply because we could see her toe cleavage. Even sadder, that it was a woman judging her, but as we see with Ye-Eun, compulsory femininity wouldnât matter if women didnât help uphold it.
My second favorite moment was when Eun-Jae returned from her meeting with the insurance investigator to find all four girls had worried and waited up for her.Â
I love how they support each other even when watching Ye-Eun delete her millions of pictures was boring. They still cheered her on and made her a cake. They showed concern that she was too happy about her broken heart. They didnât just tell her to shave her pits if she was worried about single underarm hair.
My third favorite moment (yes, I ranked all of these, buckle in, I have a few more) was when Jung-Yeol tried his hardest to coax Eun-Jae into talking to him.Â
I cannot blame her for withholding, but he tried really hard to make her comfortable and safe. I wish I still didnât have to have that asterisks next to their relationship. The preview made me a little concerned that heâs going to go cold towards her. Â
My fourth favorite moment was Jin-Myungâs breakdown at work when her boss accused her of stealing the wine.Â
I am so grateful that the head chef and Jae-Hwan intervened. I was shaking after that scene. I do not understand why it is okay to physically assault your employees. I know it happens. I know bosses get away with it. But I hate it. I was glad that Jae-Hwan not only protected her but held onto her when she lookedâŠgone. Iâm glad he saw it and told her that he saw it.
And my fifth favorite scene was Bar Ahjussi giving Yi-Na what she needed to move on.
She was so lost during this episode. I kept waiting for her to stand up for herself with the mother showed up to chide her about the credit card purchases. But I guess you canât be proud youâre a sugar baby and insist you are worth the money you spent. I hope she can find out what she wants.Â
But that scene in the water? Iâm just in awe of her acting. It is difficult to emote underwater but she did it beautifully on both sides.
I guess the only one I havenât mentioned is Ji-Won. She is absolutely the heart and soul of Belle Epoque. I think we need someone like her there, someone with a boring and simple life, with a road that only goes straight and is completely flat. Someone who can see clearly and love those around her.
And I really just want all the ladies to be happy before they drift apart. I want that ten year reunion where they are have all realized their dreams.

Exactly what Shin PD wants us to know.
Why Taek is the husband (VIEWER'S ANALYSIS)
DeokSun developed feelings for both Sunwoo and Junghwan after she had other people tell her that they (Sunwoo and Junghwan) liked her. She never âfell in loveâ with either of them. She had feelings for them because she thought that they had feelings for her. When Dongryong had a talk with DeokSun about her worries that no one likes her and he said that it didnât matter who liked her, the only thing that mattered was who she likes. After that talk I noticed that her feelings for Junghwan went away because she realized that she didnât have romantic feelings for him, she only liked the idea of Junghwan liking her.
She ultimately ended up with Taek because with Taek, she fell in love with him by herself without anyone telling her that Taek liked her too.
DeokSun realized that she liked Taek when she was so bothered that Taek canceled on her. It made her sad that there was a chance that she wasnât as important to Taek as Taek was important to her. When she thought about that, that was when she started discovering that all the care and special attention sheâd give to Taek was because she was slowly falling for him without knowing herself.
And like Junghwan said, love, fate, and destiny, are all about timing. It just happened that DeokSun and Taekâs timing were right because they confessed at the right time, when both of they were mature adults and not immature teens who had no experiences about love and life. Their timing was just right, not too early (like when DeokSun tried confessing to Sunwoo), and not too late (like when Junghwan decided to show his feelings to DeokSun during the movie/concert scene)
Junghwan also mentioned that he always had hesitations while Taek was willing to act without regrets when it came to DeokSun and thatâs why they were different from each other. Taek wanted DeokSun more and thatâs why at the end, Taek was the one next to DeokSun while Junghwan was the one looking at them from afar.
