Koala Guesses: Yoon Jae or Kyung Joon at the End of Episode 14 of Big?
Posted on July 19, 2012 by koala
Im been trying hard not to keep speculating about who woke up at the end of episode 14 of Big, despite my post-recap assertion that it was most likely Yoon Jae. But my Big love got the better of me, that and the niggling sensation that there might be proof of who it was based on clues hidden in the drama earlier. Ive loved the hands, hands, and more hands theme flowing throughout the drama, but the Hong Sisters have been embedding additional Easter Eggs everywhere IMO. I think when all is said and done, we might go back and rewatch this baby and gain a deeper appreciation and understanding for how intricate they plotted this drama. Or maybe not, maybe Im just projecting my hopes onto the writing sisters in the fervent wish that they wont sink this ship with an abominable ending. Now off to the guessing game.
When I saw the body of Yoon Jae laying in his hospital office bed, I was initially so shocked I couldnt really process all the details. After taking a step back, I realized that the person who woke up is likely Kyung Joon still. So that is Kyung Jae laying there, not Yoon Jae. My reasons? The exact laying position he was in was the exact same way Kyung Joon laid in episode 1, the first time the drama showed him resting on his kid race car bed and reaching over to play with his toys on the bedside table. See the photographic evidence below.
The sleeping position is identical, no? On the right side, with the left arm outstretched, and the right hand under the cheek. If I want to bolster my proof, check out all the times weve seen Kyung Jae resting, hes always laying on his side.
The above are all moments when Kyung Jae is resting, though not necessarily in deep sleep. I dont think its a coincidence the PD chose to film Kyung Jae resting each time in the side-sleeping position. If we look at the screencap below, its hard to deny the Yoon Jae body that is resting at the end of episode 14 is identical to all the Kyung Jae resting moments in earlier episodes.
So why do I keep saying resting instead of sleeping? Because I think there is yet another clue that this is Kyung Jae, and hes laying there with his eyes closed because hes in pain, and because hes processing the non-change back and what to do about it. Remember each of the other times there was almost a change, hes always in a lot of pain. This time I doubt he would be any different, and he seemed in pain right before he collapsed. But recall that in previous almost change backs, he also collapsed, but in the end there was no return to his original body. So the mere fact that he collapsed besides Kyung Joon is not indicative the souls were switched back. Furthermore, everyone at that hospital knows Yoon Jae is sick, therefore if he collapsed, why would he be laying in his own office bed rather than in a hospital room as a patient getting checked up.
Hello? Guy just fainted, in a hospital no less, so unless the doctors are courting malpractice, he would be examined. Therefore the only reason he was not being probed and was instead laying on Yoon Jaes office bed was because Kyung Jae collapsed beside Kyung Joons body during the blood withdrawal, and then promptly got back up. As he has done in the previous other four times his soul momentary went back to his own body. Afterwards he declined to be check up and walked back to Yoon Jaes office. Se Young just said Yoon Jae collapsed, but that doesnt mean he was still in a faint when Da Ran got to him.
He was laying on the bed resting from the residual pain when Da Ran came in. When Da Ran put her hands on his face, he opened his eyes, but with Gong Yoos amazing acting, its not immediately clear whether he was waking up from sleep or just opening his eyes because he was just resting. I think this is therefore a feint, and there was no switch back. Which then really really suggests that Yoon Jaes soul is dead. Has been since the accident. That is why Yoon Jaes body coded and he was wheeled into the morgue. Kyung Joons soul went into his body because it was the Miracle book at work, with his dead surrogate mother doing her magic to make her son find happiness.
