ep 4 spoilers ahead

spoilers!

1.Dal Peng (In Ha's father) observes In Ha and Dal Po decide to become reporters together (I won't comment on how odd it is that he followed Dal Po here). He later speaks to Dal Po very candidly about his feelings for his daughter. Essentially he states that no guy will be good enough for her and that he wants someone to spoil her. Dal Po admits he doesn't know when he started liking her but he's liked her for a long time and won't share his feelings because the family comes first and he doesn't believe he is good enough for her (may I remark that when someone comes straight out and says all the things you want to say, then it is impossible to criticize them?)

2.Afterwards, In Ha and Dal Po practice together their reporting/fact finding. Later, In Ha's grandpa takes Dal Po out for a new suit (they love their makeovers in these dramas) and he emerges transformed into a model (and without that awful wig). Grandpa tells Dal Po that he has, for years, known that he is not his actual son. He admits he knew within a year of his arrival, but pitied him and let him stay. Later, he realized he wanted him to stay and did not tell him that he knew because he was afraid Dal Peng (In Ha's father) would make him leave. He tells Dal Po to not hide anything anymore and that he is basically proud of him/loves him..

3.Dal Po returns home, and In Ha (in sweats and snacking) is amazed by his transformation. Her father keeps thinking back on how he wants his daughter spoiled and how her appearance/behavior is less than desired (I assume he thinks she isn't what a well to do nice guy wants) and scolds her for not taking more care with her appearance.

4.We learn that a major network is having a competition to find fresh talent to compete with In Ha's mother' network. The unknown wealthy guy shows up as well (he is a bit ostentatious for my tastes). In Ha and Dal Po both made it through the written and blind interview. (They are both extremely good looking how could they not make it through?) The girl who was also interviewed alongside In Ha when her mother's network was looking for a reporter is there (she views her as a competitor, of course, because girls can't get along) meanwhile Dal Po shoots daggers at the rich guy who is studying out female lead intently (he might have money but Dal Po has smarts and looks.

5. I He creepily follows alongside their bus. She thinks he is odd, especially when he winks at her, and Dal Po is jealous and hides her behind him (I like his angry face) (the wealthy guy strikes me as clueless)

6.We lean in a flashback that one of their interviewers is Gyo Dong, the reporter he agreed with him in highschool. The show tries to replicate what an interview might look like by having the candidates observe videos in real time and report on what happens. They must speak clearly, sound interesting, and also use words that engage/interest others (all in the flashback)

7.One candidate makes up lies during his presentation using events that they have no knowledge of i.e. the bird is protecting babies (there is no evidence of this). In Ha admits she admits she can't lie because....(Dal Po interrupts and answers it's because they are reporters and they validate truth)

8.The final candidate refuses to do the report because he believes that they need to verify everything before delivering faulty information. (He clearly did this to support In Ha. She is magical. Because wealthy bajilliionaires who somehow have info on her fall in love with her. Only in a drama does this happen...)

9.Apparently only two candidates can be selected. They know that someone used to be a taxi driver, one used to be a spy-fan (stalker of celebrities) and another is wealthy. Outside, the girl with short hair is rubbing her face against the glass (she is rather eccentric) like she is trying to hear. In Ha is nervous ( sadly, it makes me think she would not have gotten this far without the help of Dal Po). She admits that if one of them passes it is better than nothing but he admits it is meaningless if they don't both pass. In Ha seems to be visibly aroused by Dal Po's somewhat domineering behavior but it could be attributed to anxiety over the test as well.

10. We learn they both passed. They must do an assessment test (they phoned grandpa who is happy but Dal Peng seems to be acting odd....but then he always acts odd...I don't understand why he doesn't want them together he is such a nice guy. He is so weird, imagining them behaving intimately.....What a weird dad......who thinks of stuff like that? Most parents try to NOT think of those things. I don't get this dad)(sometimes I wonder how reflective these shows are of Korean society....if we gauged American shows then it would be mainly made up)

11.Rich guy-Seo Bum Jo, stalker girl-Yoon Yoo Rae, and our leading people make it to the final round. It will be a topic from the past, and an open discussion to gauge their skills. It happens to be the awful event that involved the factory explosion that killed his parents (Oh come on) Dal Po looks like he is about to burst into tears.

12.We learn his skeletal remains were found a few days ago in the factory. It seems the news made a big SNAFU. (no one notices how upset Dal Po is?) In another scene: At the scene of the remains is a construction worker....and Dal Po's elder brother....he bursts into tears (naturally) and walks away for some alone time. Can people sue for this kind of slander in Korea? In the U.S they would be suing. But Asia is different.

13.In Ha (alas) calls it an unfortunate accident but blames the reporters and others for not being more responsible since they didn't take into account that people blindly believe what reporters say, and in doing so destroyed a family. She maintains that the Pinocchio can't have accepted it, and he coldly states that a Pinocchio can't be a reporter if she believes a person can report truth on groundless assumptions . He puts her in an awful position because she must admit she is a pinocchio. Everyone believes she will be eliminated. In Ha storms out with her things but she cannot. Seo Bum excuses himself from the competition to accompany her, leaving Dal Po there.

-the music for this scene is good. no lame popsongs (sorry, many of the songs chosen in Kdramas, I think don't match the setting, in my opinion

14.Gyo Dong, who remembers him, is putting the pieces together. He at the very least believes that a news report has impacted Dal Po's life. On the other hand, if she knew who Dal Po was, I don't think she would have made that kind of comment (If I were her, I would be wondering why he said that.) she tries to reason in the elevator that he did not mean to hurt her (wrong) We learn that she likes him in the elevator because she hiccups when asked if she likes him (awwwww)

15.Dal Po vomits in the bathroom (aww) (can I say how the add some realism without removing sentimentality?) (He has just been dealt a BIG blow.)(he wanted to believe he was alive all this time....)

---A very good episode. Will these two be friends again? will she be a reporter? What about his older brother? I have a feeling that somehow, In Ha is going to get hurt in the end.

Male makeover.

Male makeover. Be still my heart.

Speaking of hearts, that scene between Dal Po and "father" was moving. I knew! He knew! I love the confession and adore him and Dal Po together.

Well I'm confused by what this love triangle will reveal. Bum Jo is a nutcase! But he's so cute and I couldn't help smiling when ever he was on screen. Especially during the "tests". It doesn't hurt that his mother and him are clearly warm people. But if he already knows she likes someone else? Like I said I'm very interested in how this will reveal itself. Maybe it's not even a love triangle.

This episode was pow-pow-powerful! I was having so much fun! The tests to become the new reporters were amazing. Of course Dal Po's story had to work it's way into it, and when it did it packed a wallop. I was a bit disturbed by Dal Po's misplaces anger yet again. But I thought In Ha was amazing in this episode. Though I am annoyed that she ran out instead of standing strong. But that's all minor.

Because this episode rocked! I had a smile through most of it, and then the powerful drama moments were perfect. It's also nice that the plot is not slowing down, and the official word on what happened to Dal Po's dad is making it's way out. Who knows if the truth will be revealed, or twisted again to suit the needs of the media.

It's episode 4, and while I knew from the get go, I'll make the official call that this is a drama I want to see to the end.

In Ha's dad steals the show!

So it turns out In Ha's text messages to her mom (13 years worth!) is being intercepted by a rich chaebol, who probably thinks he knows In Ha inside out now. Upcoming second love interest? Well, In Ha could do a lot worse. At least, he knows her "inside out", though the same can't be said in reverse.

Episode 3 + 4 were very good! Didn't drop the standard at all. I laughed at the beginning of ep 3, when Dal Po starts feeling up In Ha's lace skirt, and she socks him one. Absolutely brilliant! Another laugh out moment, was in ep 4, when In Ha's dad, starts visualizing Dal Po and his daughter getting ready, and them taking out a bite of the same toast....it made my day ! lol, then he threw that pillow and it hit ajussi's back! ROFL.

These two have chemistry. Also my heart goes out to Dal Po's bro, but at least the two brothers definitely know what happened to their dad!

And just to refer back to second love interest....just how long as he been reading In Ha's messages? Blimey, I'm totally invested, keep it going guys, and thank you for Dal Po for getting his hair cut. I can easily write three more paragraphs, about stuff I found interesting, but then I'll be giving you a synopsis!
Go watch, go watch :D
