Translation for Ep. 12 Written Preview

With Nana getting hit by a bullet, YoonSung in a state of urgency takes NaNa to SaeHee's but SaeHee does not have blood which makes her think of having Nana moved to a hospital but as that is not possible in the present situation YoonSung yells that he will give his own blood.
On the other hand, with KyungHee (YS's mother) gone and JinPyo knowing this, JinPyo must find her before YoonSung knows this...

OK, I am using Russian swearwords now, out of sheer insane overload of everything. YS is going to give his blood to Nana? This drama is truly written by my id. Also, it's reminding me of the infamous scene in Fushigi Yuugi with Tamahome and Hotohori dripping their blood from their veins literally into Miaka. Ahhh, good old time memories :)

Video preview (thanks Anon!):

Translation of dialogue, also from soompi:

Shik Jong Ahjussi: How can she be that pretty! My heart is going to burst!

Seems to be Kim Jong Shik's secretary's voice: There is someone who want to donate for the scholarship anonymously.

Kyung Hee: My name is Kyung Hee and I don't want my name to be known.

Jin Pyo: I'll take care of Kim Nana. We need to get rid (of her).

Yoon Sung: Save Nana!

Young Ju: It's not to late. Confess please.

Kim Jong Shik: I do not want to.

Young Ju: What if I bring to you the law's stance?

Yoon Sung: Why did you do that?

Jin Pyo: because it is our fate.

Yoon Sung: You ruined my life like this...I will never forgive you even if I die.

1. Undaddy, now you want to kill Nana? I want you to fucking die. You do realize YS will end you if you do that, right?

2. No, YS' Mom is donating to shady guy's college. Poor desperate ahjumma.

3. It looks like YS has learned the truth about his Mom (that's what I am extrapolating from the conversation, I don't think it's about Nana). Oh God. Oh God. Oh God.

HE'S GIVING HER BLOOD!!! I...I can't even express how into that I am. Seriously drama, there's making me obsessed with you and then there's making me crazy. DON'T EVER LEAVE MY LIFE, DRAMA.

I really hope YS finds out about his mom in ep 12 because I really just want him to get out from his father's control.

is it weird that today's episode + preview made it hard for me to breathe?

this drama hurts, but hurts so good.

[junmaolove.livejournal.com]

NEVER HAD A DRAMA BEEN THIS GOOD!!!!! Making my heart swell with happiness then break it into tiny little pieces yet I'm coming back for more.....

[sanaenam.livejournal.com]

I'm disappointed that they made Undaddy such a flat character. There has to be a more interesting way to show how revenge can thoroughly warp a person's perspective and thereby the person. Him being just evil... It's such a waste of Kim Sang Joong's talent!! Meh.

Just when Nana's character is finally what I imagined it ought to be.

That said, did anyone else think today's episode would entail a farewell to Shikjoong Ajussi? Jomjomajomajoma... Whew!

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

I am not sure how it is possible for a drama, instead of hitting middrama slump, to get better and better with each ep?

And Nana. So my heroine of the year. She is like Secret Garden's Gil Raim only tougher.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

I am also into it to an unhealthy degree. Please please let them show it.

I am not sure what I will do once this drama is over. I have not been this obsessed since Secret Garden or, more accurately, SKKS.

I really want YS to find out everything - I want him to fully realize what a monster Undaddy is and go against him, no holds barred.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

It is the most perfect thing I've seen in years.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

I am so glad Shikjoong is OK. He better survive the drama!

I actually like that Undaddy is a bigger monster than the men they hunt. That's about the only revenge kdrama I've seen take that tack and I find this corruption of the soul more realistic than weary but noble avengers kdramas are so fond of.

Plus, it sets up an interesting conflict for YS - sure, Undaddy is evil, but the targets are evil too.

[lysblack.livejournal.com]

honestly, if this was any other drama i would be worried, how is it possible that it gets better and better by each episode? HOW?! this actually scares me, makes me afraid about the last episodes, i feel like they'll ruin it.

she really is! my love for her only increased! she was such a ninja monkey woman made of ‘badassness’ and heart!

i feel like kissing the writers.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

I don't know who the writers are, but I am watching their future work.

Nana is so amazing. Warm and loving and steel-tough. Undaddy better beware if he crosses her.

[seven-trees.livejournal.com]

Oh please show, I NEED TO SEE THAT SCENE WITH MY EYES. PLEASE. That would be my new screensaver.

I was pretty obsessed with SKKS, but this is a whole other level of obsession for me. I was maybe this obsessed with Coffee Prince, but I think I'm into City Hunter a lot more. Probably because CP didn't have the heroine shooting the hero and then a few episodes later saving his dumbass and taking a bullet for him.

[lysblack.livejournal.com]

i'm so scared for her as badass she is she is like YS, she has a heart and a soul, unlike undaddy who pretty much is a monster, i'm afraid of what he's going to do with her.

god i feel so tense! my body is stiff, i'm way too into this drama! which is funny that last night, before watching any previews, i had a dream about both YS and nana bleeding in the vet's office and she was giving them both iv bags. that is how into this drama i am, it's ridiculous, really.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

That would be a whole other Coffee Prince. Maybe they open a shop in a really bad neighborhood? :P

I am begging for that scene to be shown, as opposed to the "he says it, it cuts away, later we see her bandaged." I need it with a sick, unhealthy, unholy glee.

Also, that means they will literally share blood. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh.

Yeah, I was obsessed with SG and SKKS but this is another thing entirely. Not like this since Chuno.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

OMG, you are psychic. If you have any more NN/YS dreams, you must share.

True, both YS and NN are handicapped in any battle against Undaddy because they have feelings and care for others, while he does not.

I want to see this blood transfusion thing asap. Though if I were Sae Hee, I'd start charging for all the extra work YS makes her do :)

[seven-trees.livejournal.com]

Maybe they open a shop in a really bad neighborhood?

LOLOL

I need it with a sick, unhealthy, unholy glee.

GIVE US THE DAMN SCENE, DRAMA. The messier the better.

[lysblack.livejournal.com]

i can't lie, when i woke up and saw the spoilers i was freaked out.

also, how poetic it the whole thing? she was shot in the same place she shot him, the same place his undaddy got his dad's bullet. it scares me, it's like his nightmares are becoming truth.

if he doesn’t pay extra he'll definitely own her a life time of dinners.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

You never know what I some people will do for coffee :)

So far this drama has not disappointed on either h/c or fanservice so I have high hopes.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

It was incredibly poetic. But I hope no more gun wounds for either of them, my heart can't take it. They can stick Undaddy as full of them as a pincushion though.

LOLOLOL Sae Hee can't take advantage of the dinners because Nana would murder her :P

[lysblack.livejournal.com]

that is true love my friend, who needs couple rings when you have matching battle scars? and i want undaddy gone, i wouldn't mind doing the job myself.

and lol, i don't even see saehee as a threat, to me she is the alfred to YS' batman. but sadly poor nana doesn’t know this.

now tell me, how can i go to bed after watching this? i'm too agitated for it!

[amandioka.livejournal.com]

At this point, I just want undaddy to be killed by YS. WTH is wrong with him!???

I'm so happy because there's no way YS can ignore Nana after this, even if it's to protect her.

This wins best drama of the year award for me, period.
I just wish I'd waited until it finished airing so I could watch it all in one go... I gulped down the first 6 episodes in one day. Now I can't help but watch it raw when it's available... damn those cliffhangers. I'm almost afraid of how episode 12 will end... how will I survive one week of waiting??

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

I know, I can't sleep, can't watch Heartstrings (which I was really looking forward to), can't do anything but obsess over CH.

Can you imagine explaining the scars to their kids? :P (OMG, they will be the most overprotective parents ever).

Yeah, SH is not a threat at all - YS doesn't see her that way and she doesn't see him that way either but poor Nana believes he likes SH and I see him using it.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Undaddy gave away all of his humanity - he's completely lost sight of what revenge is for - does he think his dead friend would be remotely OK with what he is doing?

A part of me wishes I had the entirety to binge on but the other part likes the agony of anticipation.

[sanaenam.livejournal.com]

I too like Undaddy losing his humanity as a result of his desire for revenge (and the challenges it poses for YS).

But I no longer see the motivation. I don't feel the corruption of the soul itself. The metaphor of the train/car with broken brakes carries only so far. The show is telling rather than showing me that the train/car's brakes have gone awry. Something's missing to make his bloodlust meaningful. A logic that has internal coherence, but so thoroughly and obviously warped the moment one looks at it from the outside.

I'm trying to think of past kdrama villains who were so thoroughly rich - a bit of President, a bit of Giant, definitely Story of Man - or even non-kdrama villains. I've definitely come across such characters somewhere, but I'm too tired to recall any easily.

All in all, given the talent portraying Jinpyo, I feel that this could have been another rich vein that the drama could have tapped to make the show and YS's travails even more meaningful.

[amandioka.livejournal.com]

Didn't YS tell him at some point that he's not taking revenge for his father anymore, but for himself? I think watching his friends die in front of him knocked something loose inside his head... not that it's any excuse. Either he's going to see the wrong of his ways and die protecting YS, or YS will kill him to protect Nana... My predictions are so cliche, I'm willing to bet this drama will surprise us with this resolution too.

BTW, I don't think there is any woman out there watching this episode that didn't love the scene where Nana came to the rescue. She kicked some serious ass!!

I know! Sometimes it's just as much fun to watch it along with everyone, even if it means agony.

[lysblack.livejournal.com]

are you me? that's both my problems too, damn you heartstrings for not being available in my area.

lord, the kids would leave the house with medieval armors and they would scare them to death "never ever do anything wrong to anyone else! not even steal their crayons!".

my heart already hurts for her, poor kid. YOON SUNG, DON'T PUSH HER AWAY, HAVE 'OMG YOU ARE ALIVE' SEX!
