Tempted Episode 12

My first impression of Tae Hee was broken…

My first impression of Tae Hee was broken in this chapter, and I started to see more in other characters. I thought that she just will be a innocent girl with enough bad luck to cross into Soo Ji's destructive road. But I was wrong. These girls collided in Shi Hyun's heart, dragging See Jo at the same time.

Who would believe that SHE would break up with Shin Hyun in those terms? I hope that Tae Hee stays true to her decision, it requires a lot of courage to accept that you are not enough for the person you love.

Tae Hee's introduction declared her like the good girl, or the natural opposite of Soo Jin, who is an extraordinary bitch-queen. We love them, even a little, because we know them  through their relationships with Shi Hyun: while Tae Hee is like a fresh air in his life, Soo Ji is like a icy wind that never stops. His feelings (clumsy, confused, toxic...) around them fill every moment with pasion, and we just fall for it.

However, behind romance/obsesion it is a huge and sad complex (of Electra). Their mothers left them terrible scars and made them incapable to trust in people for real, what perfectly explains why I hate their scenes so much (can someone kill Shi Hyun's not-daddy?).

The verbal exchange between Soo Ji and Tae Hee, in front of the pool where a few minutos before Shi Hyun begged her to stay by his side, was the best scene of the last four chapters. There, without witnesses, they drop the masks: we see the fragility of Soo Ji through his jealousy, and the fierceness of Tae Hee because of envy. For one moment, each one want the other's spot in Shi Hyun's heart. How hard to handle.

Now, I have to say because is making me crazy: I absoluty love shipping Tae Hee and Shi Hyun. I have to admit that the firts chapters the comunication between him and Soo Ji was too sexy; but with the inclussion of Tae Hee, the lies and manipulating actions pulverized the illusion. The sky where are dancing Shi Hyun and Tae Hee is lit with millions of fireworks; and while their relationship represents a virginal landscape where everything begins to be born ... their friendship (love not realized) with Soo Ji resembles more a withered field.

I curious about next chapter. The trio expected to play easily with Tae Hee, without suspecting the effects that her presence could have. Who is really playing here?
