Drawing lines in the sand.

This episode had some clear lines of opposition drawn. First by Jin Seo U, telling everyone explicitly that she was going to be a bad bitch because the world doesn't go her way. Then when ML's father, Director Hong Du Sin, outright slaps her grandfather, Jin Seong Jong when it becomes clear that he is part of the cabal plotting to take over the hospital. In addition, Dr. Eyebrows continues to be just bizarre and unlike normal humans and lets ML know he is going to pursue Hye Jeong, formally setting them up as rivals for her affection. Finally, scattered throughout the episode and especially near the end, the surrounding cast of 'doctors' continue to act like 12 year old idiots in various ways that aren't really funny. Leading up to one of the idiots crashing FL's new car. I guess the writers consider this to be 'humor'?

I LOVED THIS EPISODE

Since gukdoo was having a sleepover at min hyeok’s house to protect bongsoon, minhyeok and gukdoo get drunk and play games until they fall asleep on a pool table WRAPPING THEIR ARMS AROUND EACH OTHER, AND SO BONGSOON HAD TO CARRY THEM ALL THE WAY BACK HOME. AND ONCE THEY WOKE UP, BONGSOON PUNISHED MINHYEOK SINCE SHE COULDNT BRING HERSELF TO PUNISH GUKDOO, BY PUTTING LOADS OF SPICE IN HIS HANGOVER SOUP. Afterwards they went to work, and min hyeok found a lead on the motorcycle of a man that was blackmailing minhyeok, but find out the person who owned the motorcycle didn’t have it since it was stolen from him. So as they are driving back, a disrespectful man crashes into another woman, and he treats the woman as though it was her fault and bongsoon sees all this and steps out of the car and argues with the man BUT THE MAN WASNT SCARED so min hyeok came out AND SINCE HE LOOKED RICH, THE MAN BECAME W COWARD AND DROVE OFF, ONLY FOR BONGSOON TO HIDE IN HIS CAR AND MADE THE MAN PARK INTO A QUIET AREA, BECAUSE HE THOUGHT THAT BONGSOON WAS GONNA DO FREAKY STUFF WITH HIM, ONLY FOR HER TO PUSH HIS CAR ROUND AND ROUND WHILST HE’S IN THERE AND MINHYEOK SEES ALL THIS, AND QUESTIONS BONGSOON’S STRENGTH WHICH IS WHERE SHE REVEALS THAT HER POWER IS PASSED ON AFTER GENERATION ONLY TO WOMEN. SO NOW MINHYEOK OFFERS TO TRAIN BONGSOON SO SHE COULD GET JUSTICE AGAINST THE ATTACKER IN HER NEIGHBOURHOOD, ONLY FOR BONGSOON TO ASTOUND MINHYEOK AND SHOCK HIM WITH HOW WELL SHE WAS HANDLING THE TRAINING. And heeji dumped gukdoo, because she got feelings for bonggi, and HE ADMITTED THAT HE DIDNT FEEL ANYTHING SINCE DEEP DOWN HE KNOWS THAT HE LIKES BONGSOON. Afterwards minhyeok takes bongsoon to his family and introduces her as his girlfriend and future wife and EVEN DAYS HE’LL HAVE KIDS WITH HER so his dad would stop telling him to get married. AND BONGSOON’S GRANDMA CAME TO VISIT BONGSOON’S FAMILY AND SHE HAS SUPER STRENGTH AND EVEN BEAT OFF THE THUGS FROM THE REDEVELOPMENT COMPANY THAT WANTED TO REDEVELOP THE AREA AND WERE FORCING A WOMAN TO GIVE THEM A SIGNATURE FOR A PETITION AND THE THUGS WERE FROM ONE OF MINHYEOK’S FATHER’S COMPANIES. And as minhyeok and bongsoon were sleeping soundly, BONGSOON LOCKED HER DOOR THANKFULLY SINCE GUKDOO WARNED HER THAT MINHYEOK WASNT GAY, AND SOMEONE WITH A KNIFE ENTERED MINHYEOK’S ROOM WHILST HE WAS SLEEPING AND PUT A KNIFE TO MINHYEOK’S THROAT AND HE WOKE UP.

Another roller coaster

Thus show just goes way up and way down, both in terms of emotions for the story ... and in story quality. This episode kicks off with the tragic ending of the last episode, with Kim Su Cheol having wiped out in a really bad motorcycle accident (_totally_ his fault) and needs immediate surgery. At first FL is reluctant to do it for her friend but he insists that he only trusts her so she directly assists Hong and they both successfully save him, though it's clear he will have a long, long recovery. The whole incident, of course, feels very contrived by the show for cheap dramatic purposes. In fact there are LOTs of moments in this show that feel just like the laziest of plot writing. And that's getting disappointing. On the good side, I like that the relationship between the FL & ML seems to be progressing at a realistic and mature pace independent of all the noise around them. That part of the writing is solid. Ever since the ML messed up when he was dismissive of her request for Granny's records, he has really turned it around and consistently respected her choices. He is letting her set the pace of their relationship. He has not tried to make life decisions for her and he clearly respects her as a doctor. All that is very refreshing and mature. Surrounding that, there is all kinds of disappointing junk. The continued bizarre, clownish mis-behavior of all the hospital staff is more frightening than humorous. I don't know what the writers are trying to achieve with all that. That reaches a low-point with frat-house-level heavy drinking at the welcome party near the end of the episode. It was, frankly, disgusting to watch. This show seems full of characters who are either just plain bad, awful humans or at best broken adults who act with the immaturity of children. It's hard to take a lot of this seriously, but if it's meant to be comedy, it's not really working either.

well the mislead was whack & not logical…

well the mislead was whack & not logical considering Shin's behavior & attitude towards Apo, but as this almost at the end... whatever. but who would've thought that the bad-guy would be Su's father & not his mother (well the bad-guy behind the attempts at Apo's life is Yi or so i think, unless that's another mislead) but the father's reasoning behind his wanting the marriage to go forward is so weird, he wanted his son to marry someone he didn't love cause Apo was a spoilt brat ?!? how that make Su goal oriented? didn't get the logic behind that. well he himself is living in a loveless marriage according to his wife (or she is) so i guess that means he didn't have to divide his attention? is that what he means? whack all the same. ******************but Phop was a moron & reminded me of his stupid self at the start of this, even if he got a new neckless from his father-in-law, why would he remove what his husband/the man he loves gave him?!? it doesn't matter that it's an amethyst, it's the sentiment that matters. but i guess this all for all the drama that will get resolved by the end - i hope. but there's a lot that needs to be resolved, hope nothing get's left open. **********************************************************************************************glad at least the 2nd couple is fairing better & have finally resolved their minor issues, which am really glad for the talk between Phop & Tail - that was sweet & wholesome & needed so they can become true friends. **********************************side note: i didn't notice the chemistry between the mains & this the 1st time where their kiss surprised me - it was hot as hell & u could easily convince me that they actually attracted to each other - but the NC scene was too much for me lol the kiss was enough, so skipped the rest as i felt like i was intruding on a very private moment.
