SPOILER ALERT! [10/10]

A beautiful and heart-wrenching pilot episode that makes me yearn for more. You won't see Park Eunbin until the last five minutes of the episode, and it's not a problem because the actress and actor who played the younger version of our main characters, Mokha and Bogeol, did very well. I could feel their hurt and longing for freedom lingering from the screen. In this episode, we are introduced to Mokha, who is full of sunshine, and Bogeol, who is seen as a money-obsessed jerk. Bogeol is most likely Kiho who changed his identity once he left the island. If you pay attention, you'll realise that these two are the only students who are wearing their winter uniform when the summer heat is taking over the island. Mokha and Bogeol have good-for-nothing fathers who physically and verbally abuse them, and the more pain they give their children, the more they're satisfied. Especially Bogeol's father who took joy in manipulating Mokha into thinking that her father wasn't abusing her and that she should apologise for what her abusive father did to her. Trash adults. If I were Mokha, I'd never forget everything that Bogeol has done for me. I teared up when Bogeol jeopardised his life to protect Mokha. Although in the end, he couldn't stop Mokha's father from getting on the ferry, he did everything he could, and that's enough. He probably feels guilty and thinks that he's responsible for Mokha's disappearance. Mokha and Bogeol don't deserve what their fathers did to them. I hope now as adults, they both can pursue their dreams. I can't wait to see Mokha shine on the stage and become the diva that she has always wanted to be. You know what'll be a cool but meh plot twist? If Bogeol isn't Kiho, and Kiho is someone else.

She's getting close to know the truth

Finally Soo Wan is getting closer to know the true identity of Dylan Park. It's adorable she still misses him after twelve years, he had such a great impact on her life that she can't get over him and his mother because they "showed" her real life and happiness even if she wasn't able to see with her own eyes. The second male lead is also cute... and a little submissive. He looks like the type of guy you can order around and won't budge. This is probably why even if SW's dad seems to like Dong Joo a lot, he is scared of having him as a son in law. Maybe he also has an inferiority complex because Dylan Park will surely become a better doctor than he is? He is also reminded every day of the fact that he didn't save DJ's mom, which is painful. I hope for DJ that he will find out about this, probably from SW's cop friend. It's also possible SW's dad is the one who got DJ's mother killed as an excuse to find someone kind who would donate their eyes to his daughter. He is so fake, ugh.

Snooping around in other people's affairs just to satisfy one's curiosity?

Somehow i didn't really like this episode...

--Don't get me wrong i loved the story (!!) but something was wrong.



I think it was the way they began the episode. The suspicion about the guy being a escaped prisoner. They all talked about this like they were some bored villagers who don't have anything else to do. And because they want to still their curiosity they have to find out what's behind this.

The scene at the end strenghened this. It was where the husband told his wife that he has an illness and is going to loose his sight. I think that scene was too personal. The other three perosns (Daisuke-kun, Shioriko-san, Shida-san) were totally 'moved' and stood in the background... (I don't think that made it better) The last episode was done much better. They heard the story but only Shida-san was right there and talked with her. They gave her the privacy she needed.



------

Maybe i'm a bit too oldfashioned ^^; In the century where everyone knows everything thanks to facebook & Co it's maybe wishfull thinking that there's something that belongs only to a couple.



The lovestory between the married couple was really sweet and had everything to get wonderful moments (Those "Awwwwwww..." Scenes everyone wishes for in romance stories *.*)

Conclusion: I liked this couple but how they snooped around in their affairs wasn't really nice. I hope the next episode is going to be better.
