The Problematic of the Unproblematic

At the half-way mark, the darker elements are starting to come out. Seo Mi-do doesn’t take her relationship with Tae-sang seriously, but she is in for a rude awakening when she finds out how it is to date someone like Oppa... Episode 9 Shuk: We open up back under the cherry blossoms by the Maisan mountains, and Tae-sang sort-of-kind-of-not-quite pops the question by asking if he would make a good husband. She skirts the issue my saying good men make good husbands, but she bolts when he presses her (a bit) for a real answer. JoAnne: Because she doesn’t have the sense God gave a rabbit. No, I don’t want to insult rabbits by associating them, however slightly, with Miss PissMeOff. She doesn’t have the sense God gave Grandpa Leeteuk, with his purple hair, questionable sports outfits, and one grey suit. There. kakashi: I like Grandpa Leeteuk more and more. Seriously. I made quite a lot of gifs of him. Shuk: On the drive back, she essentially ignores him in the car...

Opening scene. Yeo Ji-Hoon (the oh-so-delicious Joo Sang-Wook) runs after someone at night, across a room full of laundry, up some stairs, into a hotel. The man enters a room, Yeo Ji-hoon follows him, but the room (with the number 101) is empty. Yeo Ji-Hoon voice over:  "Well ...

Again outside the room, Yeo Ji-hoon sees the one he's been chasing at the end of the corridor. He runs after him anew, agitated and emotional, and finally catches up, in front of a closed door. And the culprit turns around, slowly ... and it is himself. A cold and scary version of himself, looking at him (and us) with these evil, challenging predator eyes. Yeo Ji-hoon startles awake from his...

I really, really, really miss Lee Jun-ki. It is strange, how we miss certain people sometimes, right? I don't know what it is that makes me miss this one more than others that have been absent from my bedroom for a while. Oups, did I just say that??? This could be misunderstood. But I always watch my dramas in my bedroom. Which is actually not the bedroom I sleep in ... but never mind. Oh, and correction: Lee Jun-ki isn't even completely absent from the bedroom-I-don't-sleep-in! I have postcards of his on my bookshelf. And a signed Iljimae CD. So ... he kinda watches over me whenever I watch something. Nice ... but not enough. I want this man back on my screen! Pronto!   To miss him a little less until he gets back on my screen in a few months (hopefully), I sat down to write this post - with lots of pretty Joongi pictures (credit as tagged).
