Hi here.

Hi @WE!

HS is going to get a red cheek by being so insistent with Do Yeon.

It never miss any occasion to add a booboo scene.

One thing I notice about Writer Park is that she ensures that even small bit characters will have connections and reappear meaningfully in different parts of the series. Take the 2 policemen who are keeping watch over HS and SH day after day. One of them is the ex-colleague of Cha.

I’ve rewatched While You Were Sleeping and noticed the same thing there. She create a tightly knitted group of characters, who will have something more to do with each other than is obvious at first. And they play usually an important role in some way.

Min trying to put mess in the main couple…

@GB, yeah, it’s good for the story, but also, I think it’s maybe a way to not put too much characters and reuse the actors.
I was confronted with that while writing W2. For good reasons, I could re-use characters and create links, but also: it was painful to cut screenshots of too many characters, what is close to a production budget problem somehow.

@WE, that’s true too. No point having too many extras acting if a few actors can be made to do more in their roles.

The other thing that Writer Park includes are unexpected parallels. Here we have the parallel between SH and DY who can’t accept what their father’s may have done. SH can read minds and so is more understanding towards DY since he is in the same situation.

So HS gets angry with him now.

I’m rewatching the scene with the slap, so I’ll be late. Lot of emotion coming from Do-Yeon.

OK, I can slow down as I’ve watched these recently and can skip ahead whenever.

I’m at the point of another bit of comedy as HS remains angry with SH and hides her eyes with a ridiculous sun visor. She can’t even see through it enough to pay her bus fare.

Lol, she took out a “anti telepathy” helmet. ^^

She became Darth Vader! So cute. I like that she’s one odd person without the same self-consciousness that is more common.

Soo Ha woke up with that punch. He was being such an ungrateful brat towards Cha who has been wonderfully fair and generous with him.

This episode we find out that SH does not mention his mother although he keeps the photos of her in the locket hanging on the phone. He probably did not know exactly how his father got his mum the heart transplant at the expense of Min’s wife, but he may have guessed something?

@GB, I don’t know how Soo-Ha could have guessed. I think his telepathic power comes from the car accident, and it’s just the moment when his father dies, so he couldn’t have time to read his mind about that.

I’m just wondering why SH does not speak of his mum. But perhaps he also does not mention his dad who was murdered in front of him. Might be that recalling them brings the bad memories.

Now here’s Seo as usual being fakely self-righteous and blaming others for what he failed to do after the trial.

Again SH and HS with that Darth Vader cap to lighten the mood. SH takes the opportunity to get her to promise that she’d not be disappointed in him… his main fear now.

I wonder if having Min use the fact that no one listened to him as the reason for kidnapping and killing is a strong enough reason.

We get a Redoxon PPL.

Each time a character fears something and can’t reveal it, we have room for drama. AND, “in the tips” of screenwriting, what they fear is also what prevent them to get waht they need or really want.

DY still in denial in public but not in private. How can she prosecute her own father who had been wronged by her fake father and be alright. Writer Park also likes to create these great super ironic situations and pose difficult decisions for characters.

Now we have a scene on how others see the same situation that the prosecution, lawyers and jury are to argue over and ‘judge’. At the same time we get the growing relationship between Sung Bin and the mechanic friend.

Yes, so cute the way she says all the nines.

DY cannot even look at Hwang during the trial.

She’s doomed to cry like hell at a point.
She put herself in this situation.
Maybe because she’s too stuborn and it was her only solution to let explode her real feelings.

Here we get another of those juxtaposed scenes where the argument in court dovetail with the arguments of Sung Bin and Mechanic. We get one of these in While You Were Sleeping as well.

In the end DY could not carry out her full interrogation… her father had words for her to hear. So DY let the trial go to everyone’s surprise and the lawyers could definitely win.

The korean numer 9 is pronounced goo, as we can here. We just did numbers in my Korean class.

@MM, it’s cute to pronounce goo many times in a row like HS did.

It’s like the writer has an unknow but effective scientific method to make audience cry. 😀

@GB, Ah, so it’s me. I love pretty bad girls breaking down… 🙂

@WE, perhaps if she was a good girl, I’d cry with her or for her. I felt a bit bad for her, so the writing still works.

I forgot to say good-bye last week. Sorry. But I do it this week.
Have a nice weel everybody.
If I can, I’ll write in “what are your watching”.
See you soon, bye bye.
