It's the boldest decision of his life. In episodes 9 and 10 of « Make Me Tingle » («You Make My Heart Race» in French), available this Thursday, Gong Yeon-su packs her bags after a fight with her mother… and moves in with Dokgo Dal. For this eldest daughter, who has always obeyed her traditional family, this is much more than just running away: it’s the first step toward a life she has finally chosen for herself.
Warning: Spoilers for previous episodes.
From a Dating App to Love
As a reminder, Yeon-su (Nam Ji-hyun) and Dal (Kim Jae-young) first met on a date arranged by their families, before running into each other by chance in a professional setting: she as a marketing specialist, and he as CEO of a startup that makes adult products.
As their collaboration progressed, they grew closer by sharing their daily lives and their doubts. Yeon-su was the first to acknowledge her feelings. Dal, who had such a hard time opening up to others, eventually came to understand that what he was feeling, It was love.
A suitcase and a frosty face-to-face
But even before their relationship became official, things started to move quickly. After an argument with her mother, Seo Baek-hee—played by Woo Mi-hwa—Yeon-su decided to leave the family home where she had lived her entire life.
The new images show her standing face-to-face with her mother, a suitcase in hand. For a girl who has always respected her family’s wishes, this sudden departure creates palpable tension. It remains to be seen what prompted her to take this step.
A Roommate Who Changes Everything
The contrast is striking when she’s seen alongside Dal. The two are seen shopping at the supermarket and chatting naturally, just like a real couple. Their chemistry is obvious, even though their relationship hasn’t been made official yet.
Will this new daily routine as a couple finally push them to put a name to their feelings?
A Life Choice
More than just a romance, this finale promises to be the culmination of the heroine’s journey. Torn from the start between her responsibilities as the eldest daughter in a traditional family and her love for Dal, Yeon-su must now make a choice. And leaving the family home feels like the first real step toward her independence.
A conclusion that fits perfectly with the show's theme—a romantic comedy that has successfully tackled, with humor and sincerity, topics rarely addressed in K-dramas.
Episodes 9 and 10 of «Make Me Tingle,» the final two episodes of the series, have been available since Thursday, November 5, at 10 a.m. (French time) on Viki.
