Did you catch the one from Another Miss Oh? Or is there another one I didn't catch? :)

Be still my heart!
If they hold this level of writing and acting up for the rest of the show, I think this is going to get a perfect score from me. It's going to shoot right to the top of my favorites list and will be immediately rewatched.

thank you! was just about to make the same comment!

I'm shocked that tonight's episodes finally left me anxious to see what is coming next.
I know that it's wishful thinking to believe that maybe Jung Woo may have even a sliver of a chance now that she's finally (took her long enough!) to notice the kind of care and attention he gives her. I know I'm being overly optimistic about it....Jung Woo just looks so darn lonely though, that I can't help but wish she would open her eyes and SEE him and how he's been there for her while she's over there feeling lonely even in her love for Jung Seon.

I adore this show. And my heart is squeeing so much over the ending of episode 11! I think I teared up as soon as he called out her name.
But that smile that broke out on Se Hee's face when Ji Ho showed up made my heart flutter! He was so happy to see her.

I like this analysis. I think the mother/father figure thing is spot on, and I didn't see it until you pointed it out. And I think that's why I'm not feeling connected to their romance as much as in the beginning episodes.
The writer also only just gives little flashes into how much JW was there for HS when JS was in Paris. So not only do we not get the background of HS and JS's interactions before their face-to-face meeting, we also don't get to see the relationship between HS and JW for those 5 years. We know from the brief glimpses that they had to have been closer than they seem to be now.

You need to delete this review. Post this in the comments if you must, but it's against the rules to REVIEW a show before it's completed airing.

I did get to read a couple of the posts by GoodSoup. In case I missed something, I clicked on the name and it took me to all their posts. :)

Wow - so the book was very different then. Just for the record, I'd be totally ok if HS and JS did not end up together. I don't think they suit each other, honestly.

thank you! :)

I didn't realize it was based on a book. Can you let me know how the book ends? PM is fine if you don't want to post it here. I don't care if it's spoiler-y.

Thank you. By that reasoning, I can understand why you feel that way. :)

Oh my! I didn't realize it only had 12 episodes either! They are going to need to step up the action if it's that short!

For real! :)

totally agree!

Ho Rang is probably the only thing that is annoying in this whole show, and I think I agree with you that I wouldn't feel guilty if Won Seok ended up going to Bo Mi. What a twist it would be if HR ended up letting him go. I feel like he's given up his dream to make hers come true. I know he got a reality check because he's invested so much time into something that isn't going anywhere, but she's done the same thing. She's invested so much time and energy into her dream also, and the two of them just weren't matching up. One of them will be miserable if they continue together.

That's one of the things I really like about Ji Ho. Instead of the typical drama girl that would be hurt and cry and wallow in her self-pity. She takes the bull by the horns and DOES something about her hurt. She is proactive.
When the guy sexually assaulted her - she was hurt, but she stood up to him and didn't just sit back and take it.
When Se Hee hurt her feelings and told her he was uncomfortable with her behavior, she didn't just withdraw and be hurt. She spoke up, apologized for making him feel that way, explained her feelings and then DID something. She withdrew, but not with her tail tucked between her legs.
In the phone conversation from their respective beds - She didn't just accept the money and let it discourage her. She counters his offer of money.
I REALLY like Ji Ho. She is smart, too, and capable.
I just love everything about this show.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by this:
"She views the CEO as the better choice for her daughter. Which is laughable considering HS's mother's own life choices. All very hypocritical."

Why is it hypocritical? What "life choices"? Do you think that she thinks the CEO is better because he's wealthy and she chose a teacher? Is there something in particular that makes you think she believes the CEO is better due to his financial status? Maybe she's seen how he's taken care of HS for the past 5 years. Maybe it's because JS is younger and hasn't established himself securely. There's nothing wrong in wanting a secure future for your child. Even if JW wasn't weathy, he's established.

(Just asking as honest discussion - not in an antagonizing way at all. So I hope you read it the way I intend.)

And I appreciate hearing Jessica's views because she is seeing a LOT more in this drama than I am. I still don't see a real love between HS and JS - I see them *trying*, but it doesn't feel genuine to me. Like they are trying too hard, wanting it to be real, but there is something missing between them. And I hate how HS is always only telling JW "I'm sorry" and "Thank you", just like he hates it. But I do enjoy reading your thoughts because it helps me see if from a different POV.

You have a talent for writing Special Pumpkin! :) Please keep it up! :)
