Subtitle Correction - Tumblr Posts

I have never been soooo invested in a drama since Law School. When I say invested, I mean the constant checking of tumblr and Instagram for anything about the show and the urge to put forward my theories. Aaaaaah, I wish I hadn't deleted my accounts I miss being so invested in kdrama tumblr.

ALSO THIS CORRECTION GAVE ME LIFE. I DID THINK THAT THE SUBTITLES DIDN'T MAKE SENSE AT CERTAIN DIALOGUES BUT I WAS NOT ADVANCED ENOUGH TO CATCH THIS SO THANK YOU OMG 😭😭

Okay so I'm watching Flex x Cop right now. And I finally watched episode 11.

(and I came straight to Tumblr to correct the misunderstanding the subtitles seem to have created.)

I know Disney+ subtitles are bad (let's not even talk about the disaster that is the subtitles for Moving). I know they are bad. But c'mon😫 atleast the easy things should be subtitled correctly.

So ep 11 has the famous scene that's everywhere right now. Isoo and Ganghyun in the villa of the cult leader.

So Isoo's subs go: "Everyone's worried about you. And I'm also your friend. Aren't I?" (This is wrong)

And Ganghyun doesn't reply. And everyone, everywhere is like, "Oh! Why didn't she reply?!?! She clearly trusts him, but he's not her friend?!?!?!"

Except Isoo never says that "Aren't I your friend?"

He says, with his hands on his chest, "Geurom Naneun? Naneun?!"

The correct translation would be(and this is actually romantic): "Then what about me? What about me?!"

See they are very close at this point. And they always move together on any case. Even though Junyoung and Ganghyun have been friends since a very long time, Isoo was the only one who knew that Ganghyun had gone away on a 'temple stay'. Ganghyun took him to her secret spot where she goes when she had a lot to think about. Isoo was the only one who knew where to find her when she was tensed about the case. Isoo thanked her because she basically gave him a place where he belonged by trusting him and not kicking him out. She can tell what next reckless thing he's planning with one look at his face. They go to work together. They have coffee together. They talk about food. This is more than romance. Familiarity. They trust each other completely now. Imagine what Isoo's going through if Ganghyun is not around. He never asks if he's her friend. That basically undeniably evident at this point.

So his lines actually go...

"You don't trust anyone, do you? Everyone's worried about you?... Then what about me? What about me?!"

And Ganghyun stays silent and stares at him because she doesn't have an answer to that. And Isoo stares back with that sad pouty face he makes. To which Ganghyun says, "that's enough".

But then she tells him to send pics to Junoung. Not for him to take it himself. Which means that she's ready for him to stay here with her...
