I'm currently studying fear...

I too think the WOC was dragged a little, but I personally like the setting - I love military oriented films/dramas - so that wasn't a problem for me.

The restroom incident served the purpose of showing us one of Club M moles: the american guy who insisted on having the king's official apology. This is the kind of requests John Meyer would do: humiliate before killing. And he was disappointed when his own officers accepted Kang Seok's instead.



They sure wasted a lot of time planning their strategy, giving the Americans plenty of time to ambush. I wrote elsewhere that the whole "asians are made different" speech made me cringe. But unfortunately it's very realistic (I'm not referring to americans now, they just symbolize westeners in general).

I can't wait to see how they are going to get out of that island with the us key, because they will, I have no fear.



Jae Ha and Kang Ah's bond is put to the test once more. I expect more heartbreak, but the masochist in me likes this: it makes the make up all the more satisfying.



I watched the episode raw and didn't read any recaps, so I can't truly comment on Shi Kyung's meeting with Bung Gu, but I have no doubt in my mind our Shi Kyung's a hero in his own right. He's so loyal to his king, his princess and his values, he would sooner sacrifice his father or himself before consorting with any of them. I prey the writers are not friends with the one who wrote City Hunter. I couldn't digest if they got rid of Shi Kyung like they did with the prosecutor.



As hateful as she is, I like how the character of Bon Bon is portrayed. It's a very well written character, she truly gives me the creeps.

Bung Gu's right hand man, on the other hand, is horrid. What's that frown he constantly has on his face? Ugh.

Cry Cry~

Seriously! I found it so hard to not cry... the predicament Seo Joon, Ha Na, In Ha and Yoon Hee is in is just beyond words... so sad :( As much as I loved In Ha and Yoon Hee in the old days I reeeally love the relationship between Joon and Hana... they're so cute together! Although Joon is being mean to Hana the one I feel the worse for is him because it hurts him even more than it is hurting her :( His mom keeps saying how Joon hates her but she doesn't even know how much he loves her... that he's willing to hurt his dad, Hana's mom and even Hana. Wonder what will happen now since it seems that everyone is going to find out soon!

Eun Shi-kyung is the MAN!

I found this episode a bit draggy. I kept thinking that they could have used some better editing on the WOC part of the story. But, THAT, does not matter. Eun Shi-kyung confronting Bong-gu was a scene stealer. I wanted to grab him through the screen and kiss him. I was rooting and so proud of him, like there was no tomorrow. This had never happened to me before. I had goofy smile when he was done.

Over I feel this was Eun Shi-kyung's episode to shine. It was brilliantly done. The smart and logical way he is investigating the baddies, confronting them, not letting them get under his skin. Serious He is the man! Can't wait for next week's episode. Love this drama.

saved by the ending

This episode bored me until the last 5 minutes. They made me hope for some spark which I truly couldn't see until now.

I'm glad Park Ha regained her memory and I can only hope she will keep this kind of behaviour towards SeNa, and not have one of those forgiving moment that would turn Park Ha into Saint Parka.

I don't think adding a meddling stepmother who conceals the real one to the recipe is a great move. This plot is already overly-complicated as it is. There are so many plot lines I need a navigator.

The reason why I go on watching is... Mikey Yoochun. He's the only character whose arc in the story I'm truly interested in, and I honestly think he's the one showing the best acting.
