I’ll qualify that I am NOT watching Melancholia, the entire premise is wholly unpalatable for me personally and no amount of Lee Do Hyun love can induce me into tuning in. With that said, I do have eyes and when Lee Do Hyun pics and updates appear I still glance at it, and that’s how I learned that Melancholia had a time jump at the end of episode 6! That’s early enough to not mire the entire drama in high school teacher and student kinda/sorta/simmering romantic maybe and tension, you know the icky part. It brings both lead characters into legal adulthood and with it I am fine if they get together because heck adults. Anyhoo, I don’t know if I am un-icked enough to dive back in but at least for those who may be open to it it’s safe now to open your eyes and watch lol!
