The first episode of “When The Stars Gossip” begins with a wild combination of interplanetary drama, medical errors, and a love triangle as tangled as a ball of Christmas lights.
We meet Gong Ryong, an obstetrician with a chip on his shoulder and a remarkably strong throwing arm. Let’s see what happened in the first episode of this new space adventure.
A Cosmic Collision of Love and Revenge
His past is riddled with grudges, including a deep battle with his father-in-law, the Chairman, over a botched surgery that tragically ended in the death of his wife’s baby. Begin the revenge plot! Enter Go-eun, the Chairman’s daughter, who, in a bold move, decides to seduce her husband’s enemies.
The space scenes are a visual treat (though the CGI might need a little fine-tuning), with weightlessness adding an extra layer of comedic chaos. Gong Ryong, true to form, promptly loses his lunch in zero gravity.
Meanwhile, the Commander, Eve, proves her badassery by saving the day (and possibly the space station) while simultaneously injuring her toes.
How Did The First Episode End?
As the dust settles, Gong Ryong, despite his initial panic, finds himself drawn to Eve. Witnessing her bravery and resourcefulness firsthand, he begins to see her in a new light. He offers to help treat her injured toes, a gesture born from a mixture of admiration and perhaps a touch of guilt for his own earlier ineptitude.
This unexpected turn of events sets the stage for a potential shift in dynamics between the two astronauts.
Will their shared experience in the face of danger forge an unlikely bond? Or will their professional and personal lives continue to be dominated by the bitter feud between Gong Ryong and the Chairman?
Speculations for Episode 2
The following speculations are based on some Reddit comments too. Actual plot points and character development may vary.
The Toe Saga Continues: Will Gong Ryong successfully treat Eve’s injured toes? Will their close proximity in the cramped space station lead to unexpected feelings?
The Love Triangle Intensifies: Go-eun’s ex, Kang Kang-su, is still lurking around, determined to win her back. Will this create a dangerous love quadrangle?
The Mystery of the Dead Astronaut: What secrets does the deceased astronaut hold? Is there a sinister force at play?
The Chairman’s Revenge: The Chairman, never one to back down, will undoubtedly unleash his wrath upon Gong Ryong. Expect fireworks (and possibly some corporate espionage).
“When The Stars Gossip” is a wild ride with a unique blend of space adventure, medical drama, and a touch of the absurd. Buckle up, because things are about to get even more out of this world.
