#The Confession
We obviously can't start the list without this. It would be safe to call it a superbly written confession scene. Baek Ye-jin finally says what's in his heart to Na Hee-do when he professes his love for her. He tells her he doesn't need rainbow as he is in love with her. Na Hee-do, who has been a bit conflicted about her feelings for him, seems a bit taken aback and says she doesn't think her feelings for him are as strong. Instead of feeling heart-broken and sulky, Baek Ye-jin understands it!
It's like the Indian film Jab We Met when Geet asks Aditya, "Tujhe mei bahut pasand hu na?' (You really like me right?) and Aditya replies, "Tum mujhe bahut zyada achi lagti ho, par woh mera mamla hai." (Yes I do, but that's my problem). So wholesome!
#Foe turned friends
Go Yu-rim and Na Hee-do's bitter equation also got a turn for good. In episode nine, Yu-rim looks for ways to avoid Hee-do because she knows she betrayed her online friend. But it does soften her attitude towards Hee-do. But when the latter gets into a fight with a few girls to defend Yu-rim's financial situation, Yu-rim lets the cat out of the bag. They become friends and their bond deepens.
#Beach love
TVN had teased fans of Twenty Five Twenty One with a beach trip of the entire gang. Finally, it happened in episode 10 where Baek Ye-jin plans a trip with all of them. It was the perfect bonding time where friends spoke about their troubles in life with each other. Friendships are so pure!
#No beach love?
The beach trip was obviously fun and one of the memorable moments in Na Hee-do's life. Yet the older her doesn't remember it all. In the present day, she tells her daughter she has no memory of the trip. Is she faking it or is there something wrong with her memories? We will know soon.

#The churn
Everything that happened in these two episode has set the narrative for the next. While the friends bond further and go on dates, something among these situations ruin their lives as well. The events of these two episodes will perhaps finally establish why Na Hee-do and Baek Ye-jin don't become the endgame in the coming ones. Tears are guaranteed though!
