OMG, Lovers. Stop being so darn good.
I am on episode 7 and this is that rare drama, one where I really love the ‘other’ characters, even as I root like mad for the OTP. In fact, Yu Jin (Kang Jae’s girlfriend) is pretty cool in her own right: she is warm, strong-willed and pretty. (The mob boss’ son is alswo awesome but he isn’t on evidence much in ep 7).
In fact, as of now, I cannot possibly see how the OTP will ever find its way to each other as even though Kang Jae is attracted to Mi Joo, it is totally subconscious and he does love Yu Jin and he has just found out and is happy she is pregnant with his child. (I was so curious how he was going to react to the news, and I loved his reaction. I wonder if it’s a result of mix of wanting a family of his own and also not wanting to abandon his child or Yu Jin the way he was abandoned).
He is not the type of guy to walk out on a pregnant lover (especially when she is so decent. I love that she isn’t really jealous of Mi Joo). Mi Joo is not the type of woman to let him (I love that she is further along in realizing her feelings though). I really see no way out for the OTP to actually hook up short of Yu Jin dying in childbirth but that would open a whole other can of worms.
And the cool thing? I like the characters and their interactions so much that I would not mind if Kang Jae stayed with Yu Jin who is almost good enough for him, or Mi Joo hooked up with Mob Boss’ Son who is almost good enough for her.
But if the OTP got together, I’d die of glee.
