The hand holding stuff is kinda weird, I mean, the position or their hands didnt make sense with the position of their bodies. Or maybe Im still sleepy.
I wanted something else, we have seen them walking and holding hands before, and No-Rae blushed the last time too. I wasnt expecting a kiss but I was hoping (since like 3 or 4 weeks ago) that it will happen on chapter 66. Doesnt seem likely.
Last time they held hands, Seol-a made up this on-the-spot, super awkward excuse. This was a follow-up attempt by Seol-a (after some previous night's FAIL, for which I shake my head at No-rae). I really want to know the two questions they exchanged were this time. (I want to know if No-rae showed any signs of acceptance, obviously.) Also, given the close proximity with the FAIL, this shows that Seol-a has moved beyond her fear.
Unless No-rae is even more dense than we thought, she must've taken notice too. Hopefully, that helps her build trust in the idea of them moving into a romantic relationship. Seol-a's showing her dependability and support. This is nowhere near "square 1". Seol-a didn't know how to do that, how to be there for someone in a relationship. This is her first time. I don't think she was in love with Yu-Ji (and I can't be convinced), but I think that arc showed her immaturity in this regard (as if anyone modern is mature about relationships at that age). Seol-a is becoming more of a person that can meet No-rae's conscious and unconscious reliability needs.
