Musings of the Obsessive Kind

That would be yummy fun :)

From:

lolz I saw that exact trope miles away as well. Even if they r not really going there, the writer is dangling the carrot!

I'm not more bugged by HJ, I'm more bugged by the writer for not toning her down. She doesnt get better in 3 in the humanly impossibly handicapping klutziness.

From:

I think HJ is written to be a parody of a typical heroine (my thought after ep 3) so now she works for me. Still want to drown her though.

From:

exactly. she's a walking parody, this is why i can stand her. but does she have to HURT HERSELF EVERY TIME?! ?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!

I mean she's always bleeding all over the place. Bleeding on Miri. Bleeding on Yoo Hyun. Kind of gross.

From:

I had to pause and rant and throw things <2 mins in, ep4.

Bumping into stuff and whatnot, it'll be inconsistent not writing her as such now that she's a human disaster walking...but she's also a broken glass magnet and with that rate, she shouldnt have skin covered with scar tissue and anemia.

From:

Hahahaha same here, I do pause and go,WTFWTFWTF at many moments in this drama.

And what is up with her going gooey eyed at anyone who tends to her wounds?

Why is she even thankful at the lousy ass job Miri did with the bandaid? It looks like someone chewed on her foot.

I feel the same way about HJ. She's starting to tick me off. It's not how KHJ portrays her. I think it's how the writers draws her out to be. I mean the writer does not need to put her in clumsy situations every time she appears on the screen! We get it. She's clumsy. Don't have to make her create an accident with her every move. GEEZ This writer treats the audience like a 3 year old. It doesn't help that even in the previews for e04 it looks like she'll still be clumsy and spill more stuff on Yutaka. pft!

Re: faux!incest I'm pretty sure we're going in that territory.

Hagrid here. :D

From:

I want fakeincest so badly I can taste it :)

From:

girl, you know it's faux!cest all the way. You know she will probably fall in love with her pseudobrother

anyway, I think HJ is supposed to be annoying like they play her like a big spoof of the big kdrama heroines, I end up rooting for evil bitch Miri to just topple her over. LOL.

From:

"Dad, you know how you said you wanted me to date? I finally got a gf - she's stepmom's abandoned birth daughter who used to hook for a living and now is committing a string of felonies. Ummmm...at least I am not gay?"

LOL, can you just see that? :D

Also yeah, in a "proper" drama, HJ would be the loveable clutzy protagonist who'd win the heart of the hunky hotel heir and settle down in bliss once she overcomes evil evil machinations of ambitious evil secondary girl Miri.

From:

HAHAAHAHA omg his dad will probably die quickly.

And because I watch this drama... I had a weird dream. since they keep saying MH is sterile... Miri gets knocked up by Yoo Hyun in my dream. And MH will go, "girl I have no ammo in my pistol!"

And bb comes out with a Micky bowlcut.

so wrong. LOLOLOL

but seriously did you read javabeans comparing this to Carmen? i.e. the use of the Carmen OST. I feel like since MH is so bottled up with his emotions, once he may learn that Miri is betraying him, this ain't ending well.

From:

I am pretty sure this isn't ending well even if Myung Hoon owns no firearms or kitchen knives - the beginning seemed to indicate so (best case scenario is she ditched both rich headcases and headed off somewhere). Let's just hope neither MH nor Yutaka (who should have let her know his real status if he wants some headway, poor guy) have watched Something Happened in Bali. :p

Hey, I can't blame Miri if she ends up preferring English-spouting hottie because I would too, but she should know MH is shooting blanks due to their convo in ep 2 :p

From:

if they follow the original script, Miri will bait MH into fake love, seems like it is following that trend... also looks like, just speculating that Yutaka and Miri will be living in the same apartment again after they move out of their crash dorm. Because it's a small world after all. Hee Joo knows Yutaka's bff, they all live together.

And I like that she doesn't know who he is yet, I want her to somewhat fall for him without knowing who he is.

From:

Yeah, I am pretty sure she is going to use both MH (who she is going to ber verrrry careful with seeing he fired her in ep 2 - fellow feeling for him is pretty much dissipated and he's another mark because he seems to prove to her he won't support her) and Yutaka, though will probably fall for the latter for real eventually (hhhhmmm - I agree, I'd prefer for her to like him a bit first, beefore knowing what he could do for her - maybe she is going to start to like him a bit then sublimate it all once she finds out she can use him on her felonious road to success and then realize she does like him after all? Hhhmmm). Whiever way it turns out, and whoever ends up being her true love and not just sugar daddy, this is going to be one giant delicious heaping of angst pie. Mmmm.
And whether Miri gets Yutaka or not, I don't want HJ to get him. Mainly because she's too stupid to be allowed to reproduce - those genes must be eradicated :)

From:

I feel like HJ may get him... but it will be a cold marriage if ever. LOL. I mean they would be such a boring couple... all they will do is squeak and bounce together like those puffy shoes babies would wear.

From:

It's OK, she'll probably accidentally spill acid on him or push him off the balcony. She's a walking hazard.

From:

I'm actually hoping HJ to go a 180 and be the evilest scorned bitch of them all. At least it'll make me very happy to watch.

From:

I may actually start liking her by then.

I do have a feeling that it's Myung Hoon who may be the real dangerous one. He is so closed off with his emotions. Ain't gonna be surprised if he strangles Miri ala Don Jose to his Carmen

From:

I'm hoping he's also putting up a deceiving act tete a tete to Miri's. I'm having a very hard time convinced MH fresh off the divorce will be opening his heart this easily. I know that is explainable if I consider many times guys use another body part to think, but it'll be a waste of his character.

From:

I am actually so pissed off that he fell for her that quick. I was screaming like a lunatic going, "REALLY DUDE, she lamely sprays water on you and talks about your loooong fingers---- and wut. you are making out with her already?"

After he saw her LIE with a straight face in her lesbian charade? Srsly. Imma disappoint, Mr. Duke.

But I think he may be going through a depression and a major midlife crisis. it may be the crotch doing the talking at this point. it seems like aggressive women (like his wife) is his main weakness.

From:

WORD. I was so pissed!! I'm not a loyal shipper, whatever the heroine wants, heroine gets. Fr the first 3 eps I'm leaning MH/MR, so I shouldnt be annoyed by more of their scenes in 4.

My prob with the progression of the MH/MR ship atm is when they made their initial opening of heart in ep2 I genuinely feel a connection deeper down, and now things r regressed to shallow superficiality. Adjusshi, you r freaking pushing 40, you of all peeps shouldnt give a care if ur fingers r LONG and PRETTY, unless u r totally jumping she's hinting on ur other body part..but that is EWW! I do appreciate the flashbacks of Miri towards MH right before she steps out of car, it's clear she has some feeling may it be gratitude, pity towards him, but is hit by a bolt of guilt by the deception of what she's about to do.

And it's not just a making out, I can totally factor in his crotchtalking/midlifecrisis/divorce/depression sparked by Miri's physical vavavoom pushing him to pure uncontrollable lust. He's thinking way ahead towards a real relationship, a future with her when he's saying what he's saying with that end 4 scene. I'd rather it be a hot losing-it assault of her lips than seeing some 'sensible' thoughts fr his part.

From:

Mayyyybeee she was hinting at another body part! Hahahaha gross!

I did like their dynamic a lot in the first two episodes, Miri genuinely felt sorry for him after the divorce and showed concern. I understand her switch in motivations, being that she is a sociopath and he will be disposable once she learned that he was checking credentials...that was when she started seducing him.

I guess, his motivations are more out of character, but I am leaning more on lust/ego with this one, but of course they cannot show a passionate,fiery seduction being that I don't thinkKdrama is ready for that yet. So they settle for him actually thinking it is love and his very clouded misconception of a relationship.

I do have a feeling that YH might not be as naive as MH.
