Rooftop Prince ep 3

RP continues to be a breezy, hilarious delight (which, nonetheless, knows when to go for the emotional jugular - that last scene, ouch!). It's not a particularly meta-able drama, but it gives me a couple of hours of pleasure each week.
Yoochun continues to rock his role and is, by turns, funny and oddly vulnerable (I love that he fit so well into his society and was so sure and alpha but now he's utterly befuddled and often cowed by tiny tiny Han Ji Min). His chemistry with HJM continues great (the scenes at the fair were to die for).
My one problem is the bad guys. About the most exciting thing I can say about them is that Tae Mu is kinda hot for a murderer. I don't mind hissable villains but I do mind when they are dull. Of course, if you remove the chaebol family plot, then this drama would be a pure sitcom like a much much MUCH better version of Vampire Idol, so I suppose that's OK.
Anyway, it's adorable, it made me laugh repeatedly, I got misty-eyed a time or two, and it's fully subbed on viki. What's not to love?
