So romantic

Such a romantic scene there, it's rare to have life live up to something like that.Don't even expect that to happen in real life (expectations versus reality), how is that even possible?Beautiful.

10/10 - Perfection!

So Dong Baek’s mom tries to give her money. Then Dong Baek hires her. Yep, I get the feeling that her mom is gonna get murdered. I mean they’re keeping the face of the real murder victim covered. It would be an epic twist if it really was Dong Baek.

I was so worried about this episode. I just thought it was going to be about Dong Baek pushing Yong Shik away. Which she does attempt to do. She decided she’s too pitiful. She even convinces herself that he’s better off without.

Her words about dating again when she can start anew with a man that knows nothing about her is impposible. She’d have to give up ties to her kid and live a lie. But she believes she doesn’t deserved to be loved by Yong Shik.

Yong Shik’s romantic gesture after Dong Baek does what she can to get rid of him only proves how right he is for her. Dong Baek realizes that Yong Shik’s determination to make her feel proud of herself. To live with her head up not down is the kind of love you want. Someone who knows everything about you and thinks you’re amazing.

This episode made so much progress. To Dong Baek coming in to defend Yong Shik, and in his words she “protects him.” That scene where they’re both crying at each other was beautiful. It’s also a relief that (no longer calling him Mr. No as my subtitles finally corrected themselves) Gyu Tae’s wife now knows that Dong Baek never had an affair. I hope she realizes that she’s got a pig sexual harasser on her hands.

This episode was perfection for me!!!! Everything and all the key characters come to the perfect build and resolution!!

Hyang Mi. That girl meant business. Idiot Gyu Tae never stood a chance. She saw him. Probably the smartest person there to know exactly what she needed to manipulate him. She better hpe Gyu Tae doesn’t take anymore of those pills and drink with his evil thoughts on her.
