Can’t stop laughing at Choi Ban Seok’s expression when he saw the photos in the tablet 😂One lesson learnt…
Absolutely. I've always been careful with emails but had gotten a little sloppy with Slack—particularly since most of my colleagues are still working from home.
My team was using Slack for our more heated rants but, just a few weeks ago, I was sharing my screen while looking for a link in an older Slack thread. I was scrolling very quickly but winced when I saw an F-bomb I'd dropped in an older (unrelated) message. No one commented but it gave me pause.
So, no more rants in official channels. My team now uses personal texts and (unrecorded) video calls for venting.
Omo ... I think I may have developed a new kink. I find myself rewatching that scene where Ja-sung effortly closes the tall cabinet door for Young-won and they have a *moment* (Ep. 8, 36:28). WTF.
Reminds me of comedian Kevin Hart's bit about discovering his wife's porn fetish—watching tall men doing chores around the house and getting things off high shelves. (Irresponsible, 2019).
There was so much to love in Ep. 8. But can I just say I much LOVE how this series constructs its fake-outs? Young-won's Sherlock effect was [*insert Korean gutteral sound of approval*] DAEBAK.
That’s exactly what I was thinking!!! Lol but it was so cute I accepted it as “ absolutely possible” hehe
It's a wonderful dream. Everything's in stock—in the color and size YOU want! Plus, Ja-sung doesn't have decades of crap to sift through (excluding his emotional baggage.) ;D
Ep 8: I love, love, love this show but you know what really stretches my credulity? There's NO way you can walz into a store mid-morning, go shopping and have a fully furnished living room by lunch time. Even if you buy everything from a single store (yeesh), it's still not possible—especially with high-end furniture. Anyway, Ep. 8 had me swimming in good vibes.
Ep. 5: This is one of the best workplace dramas I've ever seen. So much of this (painfully) relatable but it never feels like "work" watching it. Han Se Kwon is becoming a surprisingly delightful character—he's an absolute buffoon, a prick and very, very funny.
Ban Seok's advice on sustainable innovation was fascinating. While my best friend embraces everything that connects to the internet, I'm a late adapter who simply wants a dishwasher that cleans peanut butter off a spoon. Is that too much to ask?
Young-won's sweetness is undeniable but it's quite painful watching her contort herself to avoid confrontations…
[Thx—I edited my post to clarify I was referring to her *first* trip back home.]
I was referring to the escalations following her I'm-doing-something-with-a-friend-actually-she's-going-home-Mom-doesn't-like-spicy-chicken white lie to her Unnie.
Funny how one white resulted in a long bus ride, two disappointed souls, and cake & champagne in the garbage.
Ep. 7: Whoa ... Last week was great but today's episode really intensified the feelings all around. The episode…
Young-won's sweetness is undeniable but it's quite painful watching her contort herself to avoid confrontations (including her inability to say "no thanks" to well-meaning kindness.) I hope the absurd escalations following her little "white lie" to Eui Joo about going to her mother's house marks a shift towards being more assertive.
I appreciate that the show allows for the complexity of emotions. Anger, hurt and sadness often get wrapped up together and can be hard to tease apart.
Ep. 7: Whoa ... Last week was great but today's episode really intensified the feelings all around. The episode delivered a perfect combination of hard laughs (Ja-sung's "crisis management skills"), frustration and achy yearning for someone at your side.
Notes in spoiler regarding Young-won's potential growth:
i must say the cast apart from the Main leads were picked wisely. Scenes without the leads were equally entertaining.…
Aigoo, I envy people in the future who will be able to binge this marvelous little show in one sitting. It's quite beautiful how each episode peels back another layer of each character.
Ep. 3: The office shenanigans are delicious, on par with a palace drama. This series is much more intriguing than I would have expected. Han Se Kwon is a fascinating villain—he's cunning enough to exploit his colleagues but too stupid to appreciate real talent. Will he gain redemption or will his hubris destroy him? If this were a saeguk, he'd be exiled to Jeju Island.
