My Father Is Strange Episode 31

Four Stars

I feel like Mi Young has had it the hardest in this drama, between her high school bully marrying her brother and moving in, and finding out her temperamental actor boss is actually her half brother, and falling for said half brother, and then being confessed to by a top star that would be more trouble than its worth. Why does Sung Joon even like her anyway? I was half convinced he was just lying to try and steal something from Joong Hee, but it seems like maybe he really does like her. They've had a handful of pleasant conversations, but I haven't really seen anything to make him fall for her, especially since he must be surrounded by beautiful women fawning over him all the time as a top star. Also, poor Joong Hee. He must feel so guilty and ashamed and uncomfortable, all the more so since it's his first time being in love, so he probably is dealing with the novelty of that situation as well. Good job on Hye Young for being polite but insistent on her points. I feel like daughters-in-law always have to completely subjugate themselves to their mothers-in-law's will, to the point where I wouldn't want to get married in that kind of society either. So I really appreciate her standing up for herself and insisting on measures to keep appropriate distance and privacy. I bet Jung Hwan's mom will try to use her getting hurt as an excuse to make them take down the door. Ugh I'm pretty sick of that character.
