dangermousieAnd yes, this query goes for both the drama in general and the amazing Bong Do.
I just finished ep 6 (I am hoarding episodes) and it's official - together with SUFBB, this is in the running for my favorite drama of the year. I have a ton of caps and thoughts (the OTP is so ridiculously functional - their obstacles are not from within and it's so refreshing) but I have to run, so for now have only the incredible ending scene:
In the scene, he gets apprehended by the airline and is about to be handed to the police, on the instructions of the dopey Han Dong Min, and as he's about to be taken away, Hee Jin stands up and declares he is not a stalker but her boyfriend. It's such a huge thing for Hee Jin to do without any hesitation, especially since they are not really dating - she is only starting on her career and we all know how well dating is viewed in k-ent world. But what gets me even more is Bong Do's face - it hit me that this is the first time when he's been dragged to jail (and usually in a lot less salubrious and more torture-happy environs of the 17th century) that someone spoke up for him and put herself on the line.
Ahhhh, my darling darling OTP, I love you to insanity.
P.S. How perfect was it that the first time he realized she was beautiful (and was gobsmacked by it - such a glorious moment) was when he saw her in period dress. Of course, because he's a 17th-century man and her hair and outfit in modern get-up must really look like a circus show to him.
I promise to get to all replies and PMs by tomorrow latest :)
