Keping the Faith

So happy this drama hasn't failed me yet. We are still on episode 3 so I'll hate to speak soon, but hopefully it will keep going where is going so far.



Okay so we know Yoon Jae was in a complicated relationship with his friend, but this episode also showed us he did love his Gil Da and so there is a bit of hope that he was actually going to tell her he loved her before he got into the accident. What I like about this discovery is that it shows something that happens to a lot of relationships. I think Yoon Jae really liked Gil Da, but might have felt burden by her overpowering love later on. It's natural. Not to excuse his cheating, because Im not, but I could totally understand his feelings now.

Kyung Joon continues to be adorable. I love the message this story is trying to give out. I remember when I was a teen and heartbroken, some adults would say "what do you know about love?" and laugh. I think love knows no age, its not wise, its not smart, its not mature. Gil Da, although the adult in the relationship between her and Kyung Joo, will learn this from a kid. What better experience than that.

I agree that her character is not the most likeable, she is too naive. However, I do buy her naiveness. I have met people like her. My best friend's grandmother would let a thief in the house and she wouldn't see it coming. Really, she was that dense.

I loved this episode, but it was a bit slow in some parts, so it takes a 9.

Good parts/bad parts.

Yay finally Suzy is here. I am liking her character. She is actually not doing a bad job w/ this character. Crazy, obsessive, psycho teenager is exactly the character I think she will be good at developing.



OMG! Can Gong Yoo get any more AWESOME! Every scene was amazing. He is so like a kid in his expressions. I love his back & forth behavior w/ his teacher. I swear he is good at being oppositional, but making up for it. He is a little bit over the line w/ the whole "How far have u gone w/ Seo Yoon Jae" question there @ the end. But when u look at it he is technically in an adults body......SO! I'm not sure what my feelings should be on that issue. So I will just watch to see how that part of the story develops.



It is very entertaining, & Gong Yoo's acting is amazing. There is some good comedy despite & b/c of the serial issues. In all it's a good mix. I am enjoying it.

So naive

Gil Da Ran is getting on my nerves. How could she think Kyung Joon is too young to tell the difference between a regular friendship and a lover relationship. He is 18 not 8. What I do like is that Kyung Joon goes out of his way to get back at Se Young for being Yoon Jae's mistress. It gets on my nerves how obvious she tries to make their relationship.



Also finding out Yoon Jae was attracted to her well before she fell was a surprise. I think the reason they did not work out was because she has a totally different personality when she is with him. The whole cutesy act is annoying.



Definitely looking forward to the next episode I hope Gil Da Ran finally finds out the truth about her precious Yoon Jea.

A decent episode...

...goes a long way when the main actress is really annoying. For example, I think that parts of this show are written well--particularly Kyung Joon/ Yoon Jae and Choong Shik, but I'm not sure if I like Gil Da Ran's annoying and naive behavior.



In episode 3, we are introduced to Jang Mari, (Suzy's character), who, like Gil Da Ran, is obsessed with her "boy" Kyung Joon, so much that she stalks him. I don't know if I'm supposed to like or dislike her character yet. Her chemistry with Choong Shik is cute though.



Right now, I'm at an impasse. Part of me thinks they are moving a little too fast if they are going to have a Da Ran/ Kyung Joon OTP. I don't hate the idea of teacher/student, but I think this drama is delving into dangerous territory rather early on.

On the other hand, I think the drama is moving too slow with the whole "cheating" (or maybe that's the feeling I get from Da Ran's denial).



Overall, I'm still enjoying this show, and I can't wait to see episode 4.
