4.10 - Episode 10 of 25, 21

Today, we’ll be discussing Episode 10 of 25, 21, the hit K Drama on Netflix starring Kim Tae-ri as Na Hee-do and Nam Joo Hyuk as Baek Yi-jin. We discuss:

  • The song With, which is sung by all five stars of the show; how are these actors so talented?

  • How Na Hee-do and Baek Yi-jin’s relationship is continuing to evolve now that Baek Yi-jin has confessed his love to Na Hee-do.

  • How Na Hee-do’s life has been transformed by Ko Yu-rim’s friendship and Baek Yi-jin’s love.

  • How Ko Yu-rim is less lonely, now that she has Na Hee-do and Moon Ji-woong, but she still carries a sadness that comes from her family’s financial hardships.

  • How Baek Yi-jin is still burdened at work and by his promise to bring his family back together.

  • How it’s probably not realistic that Baek Yi-jin would take four minors on a work trip, without a crew, and without chaperones.

  • How important it is to know how to make rice properly.

  • How adult Na Hee-do tells Min-chae that she doesn’t remember the beach trip, remarking that sometimes it’s okay to forget things.

  • The K Drama elements that we see in this episode: food, alcohol, the trip and catch, clothing, and the beautiful OST.

  • The amazing Choi Hyun-Wook, the actor who plays Moon Ji-woong.

  • The different ways that Na Hee-do and Baek Yi-jin refer to each other.
