The power of the yellow umbrella wasn't enough this time around.

I don't have high hopes Song Yi and Do Hyeon will end up together, and since I firmly believe he's the better choice when it comes to boyfriend material, I'm just gonna watch season 1 and pretend like they stayed together, both became successful and lived together comfortably and happily ever after. I hated how he felt guilty and inadequate for not having enough time (due to work) or money to spend on her, and how Tae Ho unknowingly kept throwing salt in that wound.

The contrast between Tae Ho happily throwing money away to accommodate his GF and being available to play chauffeur at any time vs Do Hyeon feeling like crap for not being able to afford taking Song Yi out for fancy meals or walk her home because he had to work was so stark. Same as one of the girls expecting that princess treatment while the other only cared about getting to spend time together with the guy she liked, no matter what they were doing.

I choose to believe the struggles and growing pains SY and DH had to face during the beginning of their relationship taught them both to enjoy the little things, and even when they achieved financial stability they continued having little dates walking around having ice-cream or chatting over some cup ramen.

And these are my hopes for the other characters: Tae Ho realized he was being used by his GF (and dumped her), matured a bit, became an adult with responsibilities and found someone who reciprocated his feelings. Hoon achieved his dream of becoming an actor(/singer?) and stuck it to his disapproving father, with Ga Rin's help as his agent (she went on to found her own entertainment agency), and they eventually got together and also lived HEA.

And in time each couple got a house in that same neighborhood and all their kids also became friends. The end.
