Continuity in these shows always leaves a LOT to be desired.

I know. :-(

They need to resolve the HY situation SOON, within the next 10 eps, or else I'm afraid we're headed into Apple of My Eye territory again. I HATE the way they are writing her.

I'm trying to convince myself they have this all planned out. But I'll admit, my doubt is growing weekly.

Too many characters, too many storylines, not enough air time. This is one of those situations where "less is more".

I kept thinking, it would be a good thriller mystery for an evening drama.

I can NOT believe EH didn't hug HY at the beginning of the show. He lost a lot of stock with me: Dude, here's the woman you love, upset and sobbing, and you just STAND THERE????? I wanted to tear my hair out. He can go and buy her a drink and let her spill her guts out later, but at that moment, in the cold, with her breaking down in front of him, and he just....stands there.
That does NOT compute.

(And I'll say it again, the actress playing HY is doing a stellar job. She's just terrific.)

Woah, let's not go there, Sher.....these early-evening dailies don't go that dark. Although, it WOULD be a heckuva twist for EH.

You know, what's funny is that I kept thinking "What if SJ is right, and this place needs to be remodeled?" Both of those establishments NEVER have any sit-in customers (I know, it's a k-drama thing, but still.....).

I love that they used the pose from the Korean version! Really looking forward to this.

This reminded me of my biggest disappointment with Ep 47: SW's lack of reaction towards HY's confession. I kept waiting for the polite yet FIRM response to tell her to back off (or else), yet we got nothing??? What kind of mixed messages is this guy sending? Did I miss something?

I get the feeling the writers feel the domestic audience simply doesn't want anything different in their early evening dramas.
I can't help but think how much better Apple of My Eye would have been if there had not been a 'happy ending', but something more bittersweet where the ML lead loses the FL, due to his unassertiveness (for lack of a better word).

Do we know for sure if SJ is indeed JA's daughter? I get this feeling that they aren't that close....there seems to be distance between them. I realize that SW isn't her son.

Sher, he won't move on. He is beyond crushing on her. What's his reaction to her spilling her heart out about her unrequited love for SW? He doesn't push her away or finally just give up...he feels sorry for her and wants to help. He's a goner, head-over-heels in love with her, unfortunately and will be by her side, completely blinded by love, until he finds out about how she's been treating ES. We've seen this formula too many times - this (HY vs ES) will be the test of their relationship.

At this point, I'm absolutely convinced the serial killer subplot will be the catalyst. They will then all encounter each other (EH/HY/ES) at the hospital and figure things out. I'm just not sure which way they'll go: HY hurt and ES runs into EH at her bedside or EH hurt saving HY and ES runs into her at his bedside?
HY needs a big dose of reality to see EH is her Knight in Shining Armor...this will be it. I'll guess in 2 weeks this will all happen...3 weeks tops.

Well.
47 was a really strange episode. Starts off great, with SW putting the pieces together and figuring "who-dun-it".
But then.... ES STUPIDLY tries to take the high road and is willing to forgive HY if she will apologize to her. But HY is defiant as she is delusional. So, ES does not get her apology, and thus is free to turn in HY. The only good thing here is SW is there as a backup for ES, so there is no way she's getting canned.
Then they throw in the SJ/MG scene at the cafe, which makes no sense to me, even given MG's clueless-ness.
The episode ends on a whimper: Who else does a distraught HY turn to? The guy she keeps in the "Break Glass in Emergency" box, her 'friend'. The ONLY guy she KNOWS who has feelings for her. OF COURSE, she calls him (this was probably the most realistic scene in the whole show). And like the fool that Grandpa said he was, EH is off on his stallion to rescue the Damsel In Distress. And we all know that his feelings for her will intensify after this....he's a cop, it's his nature to help people.

SIGH. But, what else did we expect him to do? Will he hug her? Wait til Monday, folks.

I think GaRam will push MG towards EA. They already have a bond, something MG is too dense to see. I can't see SJ being ANY kind of mother-figure to GR. What will be interesting is the upcoming conflict between EA and her Mom, who thinks MG is not good enough for her, while EA's attraction to MG/GR grows....add in the truth about EA's lineage, and it is going to get really messy with her family.

sorry, senior moment - LOL....the "MOST likely ALMOST" cancelled each other out in my brain.

Sher, you mean "almost" lose his life? That might be interesting, seeing them (HY/ES) at the hospital, with a "what are you doing here?" scene.

Well, heck. If you saw 'The Love in Your Eyes', Ep 46 should have been familiar, as they cloned the coffee truck order scene almost exactly...sigh. The only difference was that the production company didn't get praised in the media for contributing to charity.

I haven't checked the spoilers below, so maybe they can close up this pointless mess and get back to good writing as we had before. The only positive I can think of at this point is that HY gets the reality check she needs and drops her stupid obsession. (I can hear everyone in the forum saying 'FAT CHANCE').

Subtlety is not the writers forte here, however. We can pretty much see they are setting up the HY/EH relationship vis-a-vis the serial killer subplot. This should be interesting (I think).
