My Father Is Strange Episode 42

Ahaha I had so much respect for Ra Young this…

Ahaha I had so much respect for Ra Young this episode. She knows herself and knows she wouldn't make a good secretary. It could be that that was just an excuse, but I think there was some truth in it honestly. At the beginning of this show, I thought she was a brat with no redeeming qualities, but she's really grown on me. I love how honest and direct she is about her thoughts and feelings, and I love that she has a sense of righteousness and isn't afraid to stand up for it. And I love that she isn't swept up by her love for Cheol Soo and knows that she isn't ready to get married yet. I mean, this guy has only dated anyone for 6 months ever in his life, yet he's already jumping into marriage?? You're only 26, slow the heck down! Speaking of unreasonable, Jung Hwan needs to calm down. He's upset that Hye Young called Moon Ji Sang right in front of him, but isn't that way better than calling him behind his back? That makes it clear that she doesn't think it's an issue because she has no conception of him as a man -- just a sunbae and useful person. And when he sees them meeting up, what is he worried about? The way they shake hands shows they're not particularly intimate and that they're meeting more for business reasons than personal. The only thing I KIND OF get is when he's suspicious that Hye Young is being secretive about what she met Ji Sang for. But up until that point, there was really no reason for him to be upset with her.
