My Unfamiliar Family Episode 4

I wonder whether Eun Hee knew going into her…

I wonder whether Eun Hee knew going into her conversation with the VP that she'd end up agreeing to date him. He was right that they had the 9-year relationship in common, but he was wrong that she would understand him or had had a similar experience. She was the one who was betrayed by that 9-year relationship, even if she had practically already given up on it herself. She of all people should know how his current girlfriend would inevitably feel when the shit hit the fan. But she probably just craved the attention and intimacy that comes with the beginning of a relationship. They have similar taste in books, have good rapport, and he's super smooth, which makes things easy. I can't say I don't understand it, but I'm still disappointed in her. However, I anticipated it would go this way because it's that kind of show lol. But also, when the girlfriend of 9 years comes over, we see how awful their relationship is. Why are they still together? Why don't they just break up? Though I guess if he has no problem with two timing her, he doesn't really care whether they're together or not, but I'd prefer to just break up with her to be with someone new if it were me.When Eun Hee is talking to her brother in law, I realized why I get frustrated at Eun Joo so easily. Eun Hee says that no matter how much they fight or don't get along, if something happened, she'd definitely be on Eun Joo's side. And I think she would, even if it took her a little while to come round to it. But back when Eun Hee had been betrayed by her long-term boyfriend, I'm sure Eun Joo was on Eun Hee's side in her own way, but she didn't show it at all, and she didn't make Eun Hee feel it. Sure, Eun Joo's criticism of Eun Hee might have been correct, but was that really the best time to be saying things like that? Is what she needed at that moment criticism? Of course not. Obviously nobody's perfect, and a lot of troubles people find themselves in are of their own making, but that doesn't mean they don't deserve a little sympathy or empathy when they're going through a tough time. The criticism and correction can come later, but what Eun Hee wanted and desperately needed at that time was just someone to be on her side. I don't know why everyone blames Eun Hee for that falling out when it's not like Eun Joo reached out to reconcile either or made any efforts to make Eun Hee feel better.
