Why Is He Still Single? Episode 14

Growing pains

I loved the book swap challenge between Dr Gu and YuYu. Lin is struggling because she feels unappreciated where she is and she is not sure about leaving all behind for Beijing. Wu and YuYu argue over Wu going solo. YuYu recognizes that his apprentice needs more experience and this is brought to light when YuYu is criticized harshly over Wu’s design. His girlfriend is annoyed with him pouting over games and she finally shows him the comments and tells him Lin is also leaving. They have some serious words but do eventually make up. I love that he asks Dr Gu’s opinion in what to wear for the interview. To be honest, I thought he was going to get grilled over Wu’s design and criticism of it. I loved that he went back to Wu’s interview video and remembered why he hired him in the first place. The respect and support he offered Wu in the interview made me tear up. He phrased it so fatherly and correctly. Wu admiring his penmanship with sign.😂🤣 It was interesting to see English garden take over the office.🤣😂 YuYu is taking it in stride. Dr Gu has become the heart and advisor of the group. She wisely counsels them all as they need it. Lin’s bday party struck a chord with the group and as usual YuYu had to be the dissident note. He has an interesting gift to wish her longevity. It is funny how he corners Dr Yu at the bookstore when she left office early. She gave him very sound advice for dealing with Lin. Whether or not she chooses to go, he should talk to her and let her know how he feels. They should stay together as partners or part as friends with no heart knot between them. He remembers when they first became partners and what that meant to him as he reaches for the phone to call her. This episode presented the heart of the group. It is sweet and sentimental and messy and sorrowful as life brings change in understanding and/or location. I like that this drama does this. It shows us their slice of life circumstances and all emotions are embraced and shown. This is not a comedy but their life circumstances including humor. I really appreciate how the writer and actors evolved this story. It is funny and heartfelt and relatable. I am glad there are still two episodes left because I find myself reluctant to let this group go. I have found every episode to be a solid 8.5 or better for me. I hope more watch this gem because it really is just that good. 😄
