Actually, I want him to suspect, but then figure it out like..within the same episode (ok, or the next, give/take). And then they can proceed to a proper night in together. I think they need to have a true fall out before they can learn to really trust each other fully. Jae Ha especially.

I still can't believe they had sex... I mean, the scene certainly points to it but it seems totally inconsistent with what we've seen so far from this couple. Come on! Hang Ah is completely inexperienced, she blushed when their hands touched, their "refrigerator" kiss was SUCH a big deal...

... if they indeed did it then I want to slap the writers. How lazy of them!

This episode already had great scenes, there was no need to rushedly slip this under the rug. It could have been a great moment in an upcoming episode!

SO FRUSTRATED!

I don't know what's parcheesi but it made me laugh.

Made me laugh, too. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parcheesi - it's a board-game.

And a reference to an old film: Paris When it Sizzles. The main character is a screenwriter. He writes a kiss and fade-to-black scene, and then explains to his secretary that the dirty-minded audience can imagine whatever they want but he as the writer knows that they were only playing parcheesi.

I agree they need a true fall-out. But this would be too much, too soon after ep 4. And it's too similar. It needs to be a different kind of fall-out. (Is that enough "too"s?)

As much as I would love for it to be otherwise, I think it's pretty clear they slept together. And I agree with algelic, it does seem inconsistent. A platonic hurt/confort scene would have served just as well and wouldn't have cheated the viewers of a semi-hot scene.

I remember seeing a close-up photo of Hang Ah's SK passport and IIRC it was issued in 2008. If my memory doesn't fail me and the date wasn't a typo, couldn't that mean that there will be a rather big time jump at some point in the drama? And maybe as soon as episode 10. Hang Ah will probably be sent back to NK. Jae Ha will either distrust her or more likely be powerless (and unwilling to risk too much at this point in the drama) to stop her departure. Cue Surprise!baby, Hang Ah stoically keeping silent, time jump and meeting Jae Ha a few years later.

I REALLY hope that it doesn't happen that way. The fact that they slept together so soon and in such cirumstances was the first misstep the drama made as far as I'm concerned. I still love it and am willing to overlook it but if my little crack scenario happens, I'm bailing as fast as I can.

Hang Ah doesn't have a South Korean passport yet. She's holding her North Korean passport to show off the special visa she was granted by the South Korean government to come live there and do her Princess training. After she gets married she'll be granted citizenship, and will be the first person to hold dual citizenship in N and S Korea.

Thank you for the clarification! That's very good news.

Even tough I think he'll suspect something I hope it doesn't go that way because, for me, that kind of doubt will hurt their relationship a lot.

I'm just glad that this Frame-the-NK-Heroine! Arc is playing out in episode 9 instead of 19. At least this is not the Big Sabotage ala Climatic Conflict!
