Slow, but sweet.

Usually I'm the first to be bored by slower episodes. However episode 9 had such strong writing that I enjoyed it. Sure I still feel so horrible for Seon Woo being molested at every turn by Sun Ae. She's lucky he fell for Sun Ae/Bong Seon. I enjoyed how the writers talked aobut what a great guy does about sex when he truly likes a girl. Not to mention that it showed how much Bong Seon get Seon Woo, and I feel like they are both truly in love with each other. Sun Ae may have broke the ice, so to speak, but I think Bong Seon is the one he truly fell for.

This episode also highlights Bong Seon's compassion. She agrees with Seon Woo, such things shouldn't be rushed. Yet she cares enough about Sun Ae to let her have sex with her body so that she doesn't have to become an evil spirit. Because Bong Seon has chef, she doesn't need Sun Ae anymore.

This did an excellent job of showing Seong Jae past. From what I gather I think he already had a darker side, but the evil spirit possessed him. Not sure if the hint is the real Seong Jae died and the spirit took over, or if he was just weakened and that happened. The suspense! I'm so curious as to how he was involved in his wife's accident and Sun Ae's death. I have know doubt about it and I LOVE how the suspense is building. Not to mention that someone is now clued in that Seong Jae may be evil.

Overall I loved seeing how much the characters and storylines are growing. It would really be great to have more Bong Seon and less Sun Ae. Bong Seon has grown, but I lfeel like she's not getting to experience the live she's striving to achieve. AND! She still has no interest in using the resources in front of her to figure out how to avoid spiritual encounters. After all Sun Ae is friends with a real shaman! Either way I'm really happy with this drama and now that the issue of Sun Ae jumping poor Seon Woo's bones is addressed I hope they can leave that underwhelming storyline be. Though Sun Ae is on a time line here, but I would think she'll realize she wants justice for her death.
