Don't Dare to Dream Episode 9

Jealousy Makes the Heart Grow Fonder

Oh, I really liked this episode. All it takes is a bit of jealousy, or a lot, to make the heart grow fonder. Some characters took the initiative to move forward while others sidestepped what they realized they really wanted.

I've never been a fan of jealousy used as a plot device, but it is the name of the drama. I was ridiculously excited the article about Jung Won's engagement was going to come out; I needed him to make a decision. All of this playing footsie under the table, "No it's not cheating," "Yes, I think I am cheating," was driving me up a wall. If for no reason than it continues to pull Na Ri further and further away from Hwa Shin. I'm also excited to see a shake up in the station this news brings. Those weather girls are dangerously catty.

And this was the episode I got a little second lead syndrome tugging at my heart. (I'm curious to see how Hwa Shin will continue to squash his feelings for Na Ri. Hopefully not by becoming a bully... again.)

I didn't realize this was 24 episodes when I started... So we still have a lot of self-discovery and couple shuffling to do.
