Pinocchio Episode 5

Oh, no!

Oh, no! I did not want things to go that way for Dal Po's brother. Jae Myung you sweet, sweet man. I really hope you didn't do what I thought you did! Maybe the first part was an accident when he confronted them. Maybe. Cruel drama to play with my feelings this way.

Cruel Dal Po! The boy has lived with In Ha for most of his life, he should be able to see her. I'm disgusted by what he did to her and I'm really ticked off that he claims to like her. When at any provocation he only sees her as her mother. Ugh. I get that he was riled up from what he just saw. But still.

And I'm wondering if this love triangle will be more of the love and the friend? Honestly at this point I can't seeing it be as intense as I Hear Your Voice's triangle. Bum Jo is so adorable! Ah!!

Events are unfolding fast and I'm loving it. I'm curious if the first story In Ha and Dal Po will work on is going to be one involving his brother? Or if they'll do a few smaller stories and work up to it? It's going to be painful waiting for the two brothers to reunite.

Manages to escape mundane tropes....just about.

Every-time, PSH has to act sad, I'm not going to lie, I do keep getting fearful she will revert back to "hysteria-mode" and go OTT. So far, she's managing to not go too OTT, but I much much prefer when she is being smiley, or sassy, or sneaky.

Also, I'm not the biggest fan of love confession scenes, and I kept getting worried they'd be staring at each other on the rooftop, whilst every angle is repeated numerous times, but they managed to rein it in...just about.

What I like best, is the drama is still striving forward, in a linear fashion with lots of things to think about. Beom-jo, or whoever that guy is, is not winning me over, so I'm still Dal Po's fan, but I hope he isn't pigeon-holed into the typical "second love interest pining from afar, with slightly stakerish tendencies*...even PSH calls him out on this, so you know, he's really falling into the "stalker brackets"

This episode is interesting, can't wait for the next one..
which is up, great!
