A touching episode

Episode 9 was a episode jam-packed with life lessons even though the romantic scenes between Seo Ji Sung (played by Song Ha Yoon) and Jung Kook Hee (played by Lee Jun Young) were lovely and shot perfectly.


This episode revealed how cruel the Internet and mass media can be when the wrong information is fed to the people, and how keyboard warriors and trolls can destroy people offline through social media and and social networks. This is a very common issue today and there does not seem to be a way to stop it. However, the episode also demonstrated how the Internet can be used to silence "fake news", not by stooping down to their level but by using it to spread the good deeds of people. In these cases, we can not fight fire with fire. We should do what firefighters do, we should fight fire with water and do good deeds no matter what.


I also applaud and bow to the writer, director, and the whole cast, in showing us the heroism and dedication in saving lives, of all firefighters around the world. Majority of the more than 7 billion people in the world rarely see firefighters in action that we tend to simply dismiss them as "just another public servant", through this episode we were reminded that they stay loyal to their desire to save lives even if their own is at stake, even if they might leave their spouse and children behind.


While the romantic scenes were lovely, I hope that we all learn from this episode that [1] we should speak out and spread the good of other people; [2] in most cases we must fight fire with water; and the highlight of episode 9, [3] let us always remember and respect all firefighters, no matter their past.
