Can we come to you whenever we want too, Grandma? 🙋‍♀️

"Don't become any lonelier Jipyeong" was the most heartwarming line for me. It was just WHOLESOME :((

[takoyaki]

The fact that Halmeoni immediately went over to Jipyeong's place after she found out that Do-san and Dalmi is now together because she knows that nobody will be there for him still makes me cry. And that line "Don't become any lonelier Jipyeong" it breaks my heart :((

[tsukishima]

Kim Seon-ho is a great actor his acting is so raw in this scene.

[vher]

One thing I didn’t like was that the main girl didn’t express her appreciation of him being there for her in the past.. she never had a real talk about it with him.. she was too busy being upset and confused with the main guy... I wish they got closure for their relationship with the appreciation he deserved.

[nazlan]

the fact that he's all alone in the first ep and he's still alone in the last ep i'm mad

[tulip]

His scenes were the only ones that actually made me cry, he’s a phenomenal actor

[natasyaichi]

fact that Jipyeong knows Grandma can't even see him and STILL try his best to hide his emotions, that's way too wholesome & breaks my heart a little bit. his acting was just too raw. we can feel his suffer. oh my, he deserves the world & def a better ending.

[bluebellio]

Its crazy how each of his crying scenes potray different emotions.
1. Dissapointed and feeling unfair crying, when he confessed his feelings abt dalmi to halmoeni
2. Sad crying when he discovered halmeoni sickness
3. And finally all those feelings that he has been keep deep inside alone finally poured out in this crying scene because finally someone said it to him that everythings alright. That he has someone to lean on too.
😭😭😭❤❤❤

His acting is just WOW. My heart hurts each time.

If Netflix made season 2 of Start Up with Han Jipyeong as the lead, it would be really popular. Imagine the whole series revolving around his life and having interesting things like searching for his birth parents, learning more about his childhood, actually getting the girl and finding happiness.

THE ONLY 2 PEOPLE WHO MADE ME FINISH THE SERIES

[wiwi]

Halmeonie may just be the best person we’ve met in 2020.

[dine]

Ji-pyeong and halmeoni carried THE WHOLE SHOW.

[Celaena]

Jipyeong deserves a better ending because all he did was suffer.

[marshmelloooow]

"Don't be any lonelier, Jipyeong."

This scene broke my heart into million pieces 💔

[hyunjijang]

*Their relationship is one of the reasons why my expectation about this drama is so high.* Their scenes were the most precious thing in this drama.

[hansg]

You cant deny, kimseonho’s skills are off the charts. He studies his characters well to be able to pull them off perfectly. You deserve the spotlight. Your acting was 100%

[bangtanstan]

when he starts crying, it really breaks my heart. Don't worry Han Ji Pyeong even though you don't win Dalmi's heart, you won the heart of viewers.

"Don't become any lonelier Jipyeong"

Same applies to you Kim Seonho! You've come a long way and we're so happy for you. From being one of the members of 2D1N without a single fan, you've grown into a well-loved actor! We are so proud of you. Don't become any lonelier, Seonho. We're always here for you, uri Chief Hong! <3

[itsmeraisahere]

he's such a versatile actor. I cried in every scene. He really made us feel all those emotions.
