Did anyone else catch this? Mr. Kwon MADE THE MAYOR RUN A MARATHON in the morning, and then Mr. Kwon kept the mayor in meetings with businessmen and the public all day and half the night. I think Mr. Kwon is punishing the mayor in a way that just looks like Kwon's doing his job. Mr. Kwon seems to be on SY and HJ's side.
Random shower scene. Can we just have an entire episode of SY in the shower, please?
Thank goodness they finally killed the potted plant. At least NY knows she's in the shit house now.
Seriously, this whole episode could have been solved if people just answered their damn phones.
I went back and fast forwarded through the entire 16 episodes to just watch the Shaman's scenes. Oh, wow.
When OK tells Bong to go to the Shaman right after getting her powers, he tells Bong she should become a Shaman or MANY PEOPLE SHE'S CLOSE TO WILL DIE!!!!! OMG. He's not just fleecing her for money.
All his fake crying really was fake crying. It wasn't bad acting for the actor. It was good acting for the actor, and bad acting for the Shaman.
Every time the Shaman finished talking to someone, especially SunWoo, but other people as well, as soon as that person left, the Shaman's face changed. I always assumed it was because he suspected that person as being the serial killer. But it was because he suspected that person was thinking he was the serial killer, or he was thinking about what he just read in their mind.
The scene in the park when the Shaman announces "I know who killed me. They're here at this gathering." Well, duh. Way to deflect from himself and put the suspicion on the rest of the town. And then he goes and predicts more murders.
But we don't actually get the shining eyes until he meets with Bong while preparing for SunWoo's funeral. I thought maybe the shining eyes might show up earlier and we just didn't notice. But what we did get was, I don't know what to call it, the Shaman's head being made bigger and smaller very fast camera motion thingy. I always assumed it was to show he was being fake possessed by General McArthur.
We do get the Shaman leaning in towards who he is talking to, and guessing correctly what the person just did. Creepy.
And The Butt of Truth. The Shaman just sitting there fanning himself, and not saying a word unless Bong tells him what to say. Way to deflect suspicion, and find out how well Bong can see into people's minds.
The Shaman really had the best superpower of them all, since he only had to look into their eyes. If I could read people's minds by looking into their eyes, I have a bad feeling I'd want to kill most people I met, too. Hangs head in shame.
I think I'm going to rewatch this on 3X speed, and stop at all the shaman scenes to see if I the show gave us more hints that he was the killer, and I just didn't pick up on it fast enough.
They did not need to get Shaman out of the police station. The whole "looking for OK" could have been done with Dr. Bong concentrating on the sounds. What a waste.
So ganster and his minions beat the crap out of Det. Moon, and yet somehow, he and Dr. Bong are able to beat the crap out of the whole group and the group just sits there waiting to be picked up by the police? Nope. I don't believe it.
And I really didn't need the final sequence of Bong in prison. That was stupid.
I'm glad that the 3 romantic couples finally coupled up, but it was done in such a stupid way. OK was very abusive to French Teacher. That's not right. 51-55 couple had the policeman just announce they were getting married and didn't give Bong's aunt any say in the matter. Yes, she was up for it, but that's such a red flag in a relationship. And Det. Moon putting Dr. Bong in a prison. Couldn't they just bring her in and and give everyone Vitamin B12 shots in their butts? Dr. Bong could have touched butts without having to fake being an inmate. I would have preferred the last 15 minutes or so being the couples having some romantic times together instead.
I did enjoy this show, but I always feel like the Korean TV shows don't know how to nail the ending.
I'm probably imagining this, but I swear we've seen the Shaman's eyes light up in earlier episodes. I haven't had the time to rewatch and check. Anyone else notice this?
It was like Checkov's Gun. Why introduce Justin and then do nothing with him? What was the point?
UPDATE: OK, I just finished episode 15, and now it makes sense. He killed his wife so he had to bring his kid back with him. Now, the loose ends are starting to get tied together.
However, I hate it when the bad guy suddenly gets "evil voice." There's a British comedy short I watched recently, where all the characters have innocent voice, until the "killer" is revealed, and then they suddenly have "evil voice" and the detective even points this out.
OOOni bro better show up to save OK.
Also, SunWoo, NEVER run with a knife pointing up. I was thoroughly expecting him to trip and impale himself.
I hope Mr. Kwon decides to help out SY with the lawsuit against Haum Construction, instead of taking the bribe offered him by the mayor.
I'm still waiting to know what happened at the Nursery when SY and the gardener confronted each other in the dark, and SY was taken to hospital. And I still want to know what curse that potted plant with the bloody shirt has on it.

I wanted SFL's Schadenfreude to be better than that. Dinner at a nice restaurant? Really?
HJ seizing SY and then passing out was the cutest thing in this episode.
WTF is wrong with Dad? Does he need some sort of in with the Mayor so one or both of them don't get sued for fraud?
