Sh**ting Stars Episode 5

9.0/10 - Pretty fabulous.

Confession. I freaking adore Lee Jung Shin. Not just because I'm a huge fan of CNBlue. Or him. Lee Jung Shin as Do Soo Hyuk is so adorable!!!! I already have severe second lead syndrome so bad!!! Not to mention how cute he is with Oh Han Byul and that Gong Tae Sung clearly feels threatened. The lawyer flex was great.

I love how the two newbies are friends. The newbie to the PR team, and Gong Tae Sung's manger. He's so thoughtful to work out with him, he's gonna be ripped. Plus, I think there could be a very sweet romance between our two newbies.

Gong Tae Sung clearly needs Oh Han Byul. He's interested in her, I always give points to a drama in which the ML is clearly interested in the FL, but I wonder if he's fully aware. Being unaware is a no for me. Cause his actions are fairly childish. He needs Oh Han Byul attention all the time. He's clearly affected by the rumors. It's painful to see that. It's tempered with humor. That's the best thing about Sh**ting Stars. Especially seeing Gong Tae Sung just immediately fall asleep while getting his hair done and it's totally normal.

Oh, this episode though! It totally let's us know that this new writing duo means business. We're already getting so much back story reveal! I hate how some drama's writers handle it, but to get it now really helps me to like Gong Tae Sung. Cause if they didn't he'd just be an annoying ML. It's interesting see the backstory about how the rumors of Gong Tae Sung and Oh Han Byul being a couple just grew and blew up. Ruining her life. It was sweet to see that he went back and had them pulled and then paid for the shoot and them destroyed. Even promising that hew would be in future brochures.

It's hilarious seeing all the employees gossip. Not to mention the shoulder sleep moment and the reveal that Oh Han Byul has been there for all of Gong Tae Sung biggest moments.
