Arang and the Magistrate - episode 14

[dangermousie]

First off, let me get this straight - the Chois called off the engagement because Demon was pissed, then tried to sacrifice Lee Seo Rim, it went wrong, she ended up not soul-sucked etc. Hmmm.

Throughout this whole episode I love how EO does not back off from his feelings - he is utterly open and forthright about them, but he also tells her he will wait for her to come around on her own time. And I love that it's out between them - that she doesn't reject him because she doesn't care, but because there is no time. I love it when she tells him JW confessed and then tells him 'if I didn't accept you, how would I accept him.' Oh, Joo Wal, you never had a chance - how ironic. You like the woman who you could have married earlier if you weren't evil.

Let's see, other things - the backhug. I love it when he tells her he will hug her. OMFG. And I love that the shaman screwed Arang's head straight on about love and loss. Now confess to him! He will need it in the next episode, what with discovery the demon is in his mother's body! His face when he sees 'Mom' - ohhhh. He is going to break next episode, you know.

Other things - so we know Jade trained him and now EO is beginning to wonder. Also, isn't using Arang as bait insanely dangerous, if a demon can use her to be immortal? I guess Jade is desperate because if they don't catch Demon, the world will eventually be utterly out of balance (plus, I think Jade is a bit of a gambler).

Other things - love EO protecting Arang from that demon, love that she told him that she found out demons want her body (yes, partners, like Faith would say!). I love how she is scared yet brave and he comforts her.

Oh, and now they are working with the reaper. Hmmmm.

Demon lady is so far out when she thinks Arang wants revenge - I think it's clear Arang wants to live and/or Eun Oh (also, how would she give it to her if she did - even if Chois killed her, they did it on demon's orders and giving demon lady an immortal body wouldn't be much of revenge).

OK, now I have a horrible theory of Demon threatening EO to force Arang to give her body up.

Some caps...





































































































































































































Need next week now!

This made me die laughing. It should be on a shirt or something.

I also think that Jade is a gambler, and on a side note when we are talking about the two Gods- I love that Arang calls them the perverted old men. HEE!

I am kind of getting sick of the crazy wide-eyed look that the demon always has on her face. I know that most Kdramas have at least one actors who over-acts...but still.

I am so happy that they didn't follow down the same path as a lot of other kdramas and have the magistrate actually beleve Arang and then try and give up his feelings. I was scared that it was going to happen and then we were going to have to sit through all the "i'm pretending that I don't really like you" crap.

I NEED NEXT WEEK NOW TOO!

There are not enough back hugs in this world ... strangely back hugs are only happening in Asian dramas or so I think LOL

Eun Oh is so comfortable with Arang and I love the fact that he doesn't retract his confession but boldly confronts her with it. It's fact, take it as such!
And his face killed me when he said Ommonie at the end ... the next two eps will kill him for sure.

People usually hug face to face elsewhere :)

Poor EO, he is heading for a massive breakdown...

To be fair, I think this actress overused the Botox - I've seen her elsewhere with that loook.

I am so excited (yet scared) for next week.

Oh noes - I hadn't thought of that! That would do it, too!

You just know this drama is going to stomp on our heart somehow.

Btw, your icon is amazing!

[ladysaotome.livejournal.com]

Until (if) we gets more kisses - this is my favorite icon for now. ;) It's a simple crop so help yourself if you want!

Thank you!

I'm glad we finally have confirmation on what happened to Lee Seo Rim, even if we suspected all along that Evil Choi and Demon Mom did away with her (and Choi doesn't even remember the face of a girl he murdered, at the moment of her death? Damn that's cold.)

EO is just killing me, this episode, and Arang isn't far behind there either. I was just about ready to swoon when he told her he wasn't just going to sit by and accept her lies re: her own feelings, but at the same time he said he was going to wait for her to acknowledge it and come to him, instead of forcing her to change her mind. And the hug...for a moment there I almost thought she was going to hold onto his hand instead of pulling it off her, plus I love her talk to herself the next morning and with Bang-Wool (whom I've decided I like quite a lot, here - listen to the wise shaman lady, Arang!) Shin Min Ah is one of the very few actresses who can match LJK for sheer beauty, and I'm so, so glad they are living up to my expectations and more.

(also, awesome fight scenes are awesome - praise be to LJK for those - Moo Young is quite the deadpan troll, and EO's face at the end just about kills me)
