2018 Something in the Rain 16 Seo Joon Hee Pretty Noona Who Buys Me Food
2017 While You Were Sleeping 32 Han Woo Tak
2015 Blood 20 Joo Hyun Woo
He has a way of drawing you in. Something about his smile that makes you want to cry. This is a new drama on Netflix. I’ve paid for Netflix in New Zealand. What I like about it it is that the quality of the product for the viewer is outstanding, perfect colour and clear crisp picture. Sound doesn’t affect me because I’m a bit deaf and I’m watching the subtitles anyway and I can read fast. If I need too I can stop it and rewatch it. Music yeah its there in the back ground sometimes I turn it down anyway because in interferes with my enjoyment of the story or stresses me out. I just started it.
I have discovered there are three sisters, Han Ji Min/Lee Jung In lead actor, she a librarian. She has a long term boyfriend Jung Hae In/Yoo Ji Ho but the glow has come off her relationship and she doesn’t want to marry him. Im Sung Eon/Lee Seo In [Jung In's elder sister / News Anchor] not happy in her marriage wants a divorce. I think he’s abusing her but she’s keeping it hidden for her families sake. Joo Min Kyung/Lee Jae In [Jung In's baby sister] bit of a roaming, attractive woman and just come back from France where she was stalking a guy. She said France has got tough laws on stalking so best for her to come back to Korea.
Han Ji Min/Lee Jung has met Jung Hae In/Yoo Ji Ho a pharmacist who is single but has a young son. So far just sparks are twinkling between these two.
I know I said thematic doesn’t move me but somehow it playing on my deep psyche. It because they are thinking about each other and I here the music soft and serious. Is it in English? It is moving words and music in English.
Jung Hae In/Yoo Ji does these sad crybaby roles so well. He doesn’t cry but us the viewers do. His face tell the whole despondent story. You just want to hug him and say keep going baby its going to be alright. He was like that in “Something in the rain”. I love his words ”If you come to me now they’ll be no turning back.” So exciting so final. So irresistible to me anyway. Wasn’t he having a secret love affair in “Something in the Rain?” Oh man he’s going to be typecast as the guy who has secret romances and breaks his own heart. Forbidden love is so exciting.
The Three Sisters are so good to each other supporting and watching each others back. But Korean parents just drive me crazy. Let your kids make their own decisions and who cares if your girls don’t ever get married. Why do they need to get married? If they have got a good job that is all they need. Don’t they have family support and old age pension in Korea. My sister’s and I are good to each other but my grand daughters are the best supporters of their nana.
That Kim Joon Han/ Kwon Ki Seok is so patronising. Acts like women don’t have a brain to think for themselves. It makes me annoyed when he says what did I do wrong? I did everything right by her. Yeah! Nah! Bro, you took her for granted. Went off with the bros every night. Forgot to get in touch when you were late. Your motto was bros before hoes. You only got in touch when you felt like sleeping with her. Not cool bro.
It annoys me so much when I get into these dramas and I realise that the next episodes not until next week. I start surfing the next and trying to find the continuation.
Get over it move on. In real life these things happen. She had already told him she wanted to finish with him but he just wouldn't accept it. So when a new guy comes into the picture. Get on it grab it with both hands. He might be the one who going to make your dreams come true. Test out the waters. He hadn't even given her a ring. He hasn't made a commitment to her. They don't live together. Just sleeps with her occasionally when HE feels like it. No way is this love. They are just dating. Going steady maybe. His parent don't even like her. Dating is the time for testing your feelings. For sure its going to wake up the ex and maybe he'll make better moves. Thing is though in New Zealand it can be a dangerous thing to do. Many male ex's have killed the female ex for less. It so annoying and frustrating that they are not accepting that she has broken up with that Kim Joon Han/ Kwon Ki Seok. She doesn’t want to be with him. Its only episode 11 so anything can still happen. I couldn’t stand it if my parents told me to stay with the two me I had children too. When its over its over. One I had a baby to when I was young and the other one I married.
Then there is the old sister who pregnant with an abusive spouse. Her parents still want her to stay with him. No way Jose carry on and get a divorce from that maniac. She showed her mother pictures of her injuries. The other finally understood and wanted to deal to immediately.
I have spent a lot of time infuriated and angered by the behaviour of some of the men in this drama. Arrogant, dictatorial, controlling, selfish, and indifferent to the feelings and needs of the women in their lives. Why would you force marriage on someone - making everyone's lives miserable? Why would you demand your daughter stay in an abusive marriage and forgive her abuser? (With hints he is also a rapist). Why is their father supporting and enabling the subjugation of his daughters?
Stupid woman she took his ring. That is going to cause a problem. Now his(Jung Hae In/Yoo Ji Ho) heart is broken. How can a woman be so stupid. She even let Kim Joon Han/ Kwon Ki Seok hug her. How she going to get out of this one. Its getting more and more like “Something in the Rain “. So pitiful! She finally gave it back to him and he threw it into oblivion and she just walked away.
These Korean Fathers are so horrible to their daughters. They just want them to marry rich men so they can be comfortable in their old age.
Jung Hae In/Yoo Ji Ho is such a sook and they are both crying. What is the problem with a man having a child, in New Zealand about 1:4 single men have a child and many New Zealanders live together without marriage. Don’t tell me he’s going to cry again after she ask the son if he’d like her to be his mum. He suits these romantic roles so much.
Seo Jung Yeon/Wang Hye Jeong [Ji Ho's colleague] she is the owner of the Pharmacy that he (Jung Hae In/Yoo Ji Ho) works at. She must be a relative of Yu-mi (the mother of (Jung Hae In/Yoo Ji Ho) son. He is very close to his child and worries that his mum will turn up and take him away. When she tells him that she had married and has a child (Jung Hae In/Yoo Ji Ho) has a bit of a break down. Gets drunk and says a dumb thing to Han Ji Min/Lee Jung. She doesn’t take it that well but gets over it. Just analysing his reaction to this news. He was probably upset because she just proved to him that she really just didn’t want him or his son. He should be grateful she left and both him and his son can carry on without a woman who doesn’t love them. They’ve got Han Ji Min/Lee Jung now and she is going to be a great mum to the son.
Jump to the ending its a bit ambiguous to but I think they are going to be together but nothing is really solved with their parent relationship (her dad). Lots of loose ends not tied up. I don’t think I understand the subtleties of Korean courtship.
