Dear My Friends Episode 3

We all have a time limit.

There had better be a better reason why Park Wan is doing this! It can't just be her mother's wish to not date/marry a married man or cripple. Because she's definitely doing something with both. But why is she hurting? I know only part of the story is being revealed but Park Wan and Yeon Ha are a couple I am already rooting for. They're has to be more to the story.

Jung Ah and Hee Ja's friendship is so moving. Especially as He Ja goes and helps Jung Ah out. This episode is a roller coaster ride of their friendship and I love this whole group of older women.

Oh, and the music is so on point. Especially during some of *cough* Hee Ja's desperate/foolish attempts. Not to mention that big "bebopper" music as the guy tries to put the moves on Hee Ja! Especially as she asks herself "That's gross. We're old what does he think is going to happen?" Ha!

Nan Hee is really becoming unlikable. To hold a grudge that passionate for that long against Yeong Won is tiring. Especially since her husband stayed with her. Yeong Won didn't have the affair. Sadly she's truly naïve.

Choong Nam is a mysterious character, and I'm actually starting to become curious. I'm looking forward to more of her. Min Ho finally starts to understand his mother, and the scene with him and his wife is moving. Especially as he cries for his mother. Realizing how precious she is to him. Jung Ah not realizing that her daughter is also suffering from abuse baffles me. She should be able to see the signs. As an abused woman. They both might be abused to varying degrees. I just hope the abuse Jung Ah's daughter is suffering is not brushed off, or simply a "gimmick". It should be addressed properly.

This was a wonderfully moving episode. Though that ending. I kept wondering how the Thelma and Louise stuff would come in. But I don't think--no--I don't want THIS drama to go that way. Hmmmmm. The previews make me excited for all the other story threads except for Hee Ja and Jung Ah's. Which is no good as they are such a great treat in this drama. We'll see.
