The Problematic of the Unproblematic

We're almost at the end but not quite and this episode turns out to be a real treat. Long live a 50+ episode crazy drama I will never forget! PS: Both episodes (49 and 50) of Jangbori were preempted this weekend due to sport - which means this show will air its last episode (52) on October 12. JoAnne: Which completely fucks up my mentally-prepared watching schedule for the shows on my list. You've seen the list. It's extensive. I may need an intervention.

Shuk:  Yaay! It's the final episode!  No more of this spiral of ridiculosity!

Dear Readers, I'm sorry for the delay. Subs @viki were not accessible for me (and still are not) but I'm trying other ways. Like subbing with incomplete subs. Oh well. I bet the only bits that aren't subbed are not my Kim Ji-hoon's bits so I don't care. Can he sign on to a drama in which he has more scenes and one which is not more than 16 episodes? Thank you. JoAnne: Life is hard for a Kim Ji-hoon recapper. You work very hard for your guy. I just stare at My Beloveable and croon at the screen about his pretty face and his soothing voice and his adorable butt.  kakashi: There was so little of the adorable butt of my guy in soon 50 episodes :( By the way, people - Episode 49 of Jang Bori was preempted due to - I think? - basketball. Baseball? Some kind of ball.

As Gye-pal packs his things and goes to the detention center to get the money for his fine, nerves are blank at the Manbo House. The Curlies struggles with their own financial difficulties, the Manbos have no peace, and Mi-sun can't stop pining after her Gigolo. Yoo-na feels the weight of her life and briefly loses her cool. And who is there for all of them? Chang-man, of course. Mary: Because every lost soul reminds Chang-man of his pet bird. And he wants to redeem all of them. becca: He's built a little birdhouse in his soul.

Hello! Becca, here, stepping in for a turn! And I couldn't be happier with the episode I got. There's a lot going on, as people are faced with choices and consequences. Things may be about to change, and I'm both very excited and very worried, especially as our heroine is flirting with the dark side. Somebody hold me! Preferably Chang-man. kakashi: Hm. Chang-man. He is beginning to annoy me just a tiiiiiiny little bit, you know, a microbe-sized bit. By the way, I had to get a different version to gif from, unfortunately, with subs. This feels a bit like WTFParis days, but this time, the subs are English and not German at least. Mary: Pfffft. She's flirting with the dark side, and I've a tiny little crush on Song Jae-rim. Also, hurrah for gifs and hurrah for becca and kahuna helping to recap YNS. *pushes Chang-man away to hug you both*

Gorblimey! We're all so swamped, eh? Hehehe. Yes. So how is Rain? I fear there's a drama slump ahead of me. Shinichi begs to differ. Shinichi says 'slump on THIS.' *walks in... wants to know where her picture of Dr big nose, now hunky psychopath is.* 

Shuk: Two. More. Episodes.  [reaching for the makgeolli] JoAnne:  I had a Mai Tai last night.  May it fortify me now. We are in too deep to stop now.

거짓말 , 거짓말, 거짓말! Min-jung, DIIIIIIE! Also, I'm bored. This drama isn't what it once was. Or maybe I'm not what I once was? This drama has changed me. Forever. JoAnne: Everyone's tired, let's clean up and go home. That face is not acting. That face is mugging. Let's wrap it up.

Many things are changing in my life (i.e, new semester, new home), but some things just stay the same ... We're at The END minus 6 episodes and Min-jung is going as strong as ever - if not even stronger. I did think I would be sad once this is over but now I think I'm going to be quite glad. Cause it means my life will finally be free of that Witch. JoAnne: It's just that there's SO MUCH going on these days! We won't have time to miss anyone here because we'll be head over heels with Bad Guys. And before I even get into THAT I've got My Beloved back again starting tonight! Plus, yes, a dozen other shows. (I am most excited for pictures of the new house, though.)
