Sorry for not posting last week, I was really busy and I did watch episode two, I just forgot to post about it.
Ok, I need to start off by saying Shin-ae is a HUGE jerk. First she forced Eun-suh to go live at her house, in her rightful place and basically kicked her out of the house. True, I guess Eun-suh didn't have to go live with her real mom, but Shin-ae didn't have to be so mean. She definitely deserved the slap she got from Joon-seo. Secondly, she said that Eun-suh stole her watch, which was EUN-SUH'S to begin with, and made Eun-suh look like a liar. Thank goodness for Joon-seo taking Eun-suh to the beach to cheer her up. What is sad is that Eun-suh didn't even know when they were leaving and "just missed" them. Ok, but who in real life would not see her running behind your car. Korean dramas, they just don't really use logic, haha.
Really the only main problem I had with this episode was that they didn't tell us about the time jump. All of the sudden, there were just random adults and flashbacks were the only way of telling us that they were the same people. Also, they introduce characters without telling the viewers who they are. Joon-seo's girlfriend? We didn't even know they were getting engaged until later. I guess that would be more evident in Korea, since it's a custom there; we Americans aren't used to formal engagements. There's the ever-present, "Oh, I didn't see you even though we passed right by each other" cliché. Those are probably the funniest, because that is so unlikely.
All-in-all, the episode was pretty good, though very cheesy and a little confusing. The scenes seemed very unrelated. It jumped around a lot. I'm still excited to keep going! I finished Gu Family Book and Oh My Venus, so on Thursdays and Fridays I will start posting about Full House and My Lovely Sam Soon. See you tomorrow for Sang Doo, Let's Go to School! episode 3!
