dangermousie | Stairway to Heaven eps 5-6: I have more caps of Kwon Sang Woo than is probably healthy

I adore the OTP so much - with the ridiculous chemistry and old wounds and tongue-in-cheek teasing and utter desperation and everything else about them. I really want them to have a happy ending. Which...yeah.

I think by now it's official - it's the most romantic kdrama I've ever seen.

Also, amount of caps I take seems to increase exponentially.

Anyway, without much further ado,

Angst, Sexy Hero, angst!

Sister Luster gets cheered up by Heroine. Ugh - I want someone to punch him in the face. Poor guy, you are all sad because your monumental lie just might get exposed.

Guess who she is thinking of when Sister Luster tries to get frisky. To be fair if I had to make out with Sister Luster, I'd be thinking of someone else too - anyone else.

In a priceless scene, Psycho Bitch tries to commit suicide because Sexy Hero didn't show up to their engagement party. Sadly, Sexy Hero is no killer and stops her. Whyyyyyy?

She has the nerve to complain about how much he hurt her. Dear, are we forgetting the minor point where you tried to kill his girlfriend and then lied she died?

Stepmonster is just as good. Lady, Sexy Hero's biggest problem in life is that Psycho Bitch has fixated on him and his bank account.

So am I unfortunate, having to watch you!

Here for the sexy. And the fact that Song Joo may be quiet but he doesn't seem to give up what he wants at all - he calls his assistant and asks him to find information on "Jisoo." He isn't going to be deterred.

This was so cute. He is so flirty and she is so spunky and the chemistry just burns. Especailly when she asks him what he's looking for and he points at her.

Harsh, girl!

This? This is even cuter. They are ADORABLE.

Ahahahaha (he tries to get a look at her necklace. But I find it interesting he doesn't try too hard. I think because he prefers being in a limbo of possibility to certainty of this girl not being Jung Suh).

Bwahahaha, she steals his ticket so he couldn't follow her.

He means it in a concerned way to Psycho Bitch but I still loled and loled.

Awww. I love how he changes the topic right after he finds out Jung Suh is cohabiting. Woobie!

Ahahahaha, in your face, Sister Luster!

Have some crazy bug eyes.

In crazy world, it is all somehow Sister Luster's fault and not the fault of Psycho Bitch who, you know, ran Jung Suh over.

I really like that Sexy Hero is smart and not easily fooled by Psycho Bitch. He may not suspect she is responsible for all the bad stuff but he just does his own thing and isn't swayed easily.

Awwww.

He arranges for her store's current lease to expire so she will have no choice but to move her shop to his mall (she doesn't know it's his, she just knows someone offered a space). I rather like his quiet ruthless efficiency. In his own way, he is very very messed up. Mmmm.

He does a hell of a lot of staring from the distance.

This scene, where he gets a bunch of ahjummas to buy all her stuff, is priceless.

Priceless! Psycho Bitch sees who the new fashion consultant is.

And Jung Suh finds out who the owner of the mall is.

Seriously, their chemistry is ridiculous. And I love the uncertainty he has - because he isn't sure she's Jung Suh, not at all, but on some level he doesn't care. So dysfunctional and sexy. MM.

Yeah, not very functional.

I love how nonchalant he is with Psycho Bitch.

This teasing was total cuteness. Oh God, I want them to have some happy times before rocks inevitably fall.

You guys, this scene just about did me in. Because he's pretending to look at sketches she brought him but instead he is looking at her and with such a look! His playful manner really is a put-on protective cover for his desperation, and also not to spook her, but that is one messed-up guy.

Oh, it was so very sweet to see Psycho Bitch go nuts. So sweet.

Mmmm, intense.

Ahahahaha, Sister Luster, suffer suffer suffer!

Best translator's note ever (yes, it's the hellspawn siblings, unsuccessfully chasing after the OTP).

This whole sequence was so to die for I have no commentary to add.

(Thisi is what she used to say to him)

I love the way he still holds his hand open after she has touched it.

He has a brief bit of hope that she remembers the house, but no luck.

I was hyperventilating the entire time during this scene btw - it's the most romantic thing I've seen in a very very long time.

The tentative way he is asking for this, as if it is a great favor. My heart. It is broken. And I love that both of them cling and that both of them are crying, even though she has no idea why she is feeling so deeply for the hurt of a stranger.

And then she breaks away, terrified by her own feelings.

I just love this shot:

Hussy, how dare you feel something for your best friend and boyfriend from whom I stole you after I lied to you about your true identity and past in order to get in your pants? Ahh, Sister Luster!
