Episode 12 wouldn’t be complete without my highlights. 1. MaGo4’s encounter with Manwol Most people find her harsh but I like her. I don’t put up with nonsense and I’d rather tell Manwol that she’s an ass to her face so she’d shape up than sugarcoat the terrible truth about her death. The other MaGos […]
Hotel del Luna: Ep 12 On Schrodinger’s Firefly pt 2
As a follow up to the Schrodinger’s Firefly post, I think we also should be open to the possibility that Chansung is the Captain reincarnated. For a few of reasons. 1. No touch. It’s dawned on me that Manwol never actually touched the Captain. Unlike the Blind Woman who fixated on the Baker’s touch, and […]
Hotel del Luna: Ep 12 On Lifelines
I’m posting @growing_beautifully’s comments here. Reason for Dying Besides the grief and letting go theme, another theme for this episode is choosing to die. Malevolent Seol Jin Woo chose to die out of spite, to curse CS and bring a host of curses upon him in the process. The doctor’s son chose death when he […]
Hotel del Luna: Ep 12 The Hairpin
@flying_tool commented: Yeonwoo: “You should live as a traitor, then Manwol can live.” I thought this was the Captain talking to himself because YW saying it doesn’t make sense to me. If YW said it to the Captain, when/why/where did he say it? If after the raid, the betrayal has already taken place, and the […]
Hotel del Luna: Ep 12 Schrodinger’s Firefly
Be honest now. You’d be bored silly if I think like other bloggers and recappers. You’re here for a different perspective, my bitchiness and Schrodinger’s firefly. @flying_tool wrote: Some heavy hinting at how Schrödinger‘s firefly will be resolved. Heavy handed pointing at the Captain being the firefly. But there is a sentence by Mago 1: […]
Hotel del Luna: Ep 12 Post Spoilers Here
Please post your spoilers and comments for Episode 12 here so they’re easier to access. Thanks! My lunch today: lobster roll. No mayo and no butter. Just lobster meat on bread. My kids had the fries and coleslaw. I had to eat well for lunch because dinner was your typical boardwalk fare: hotdogs, funnel […]
Go Go Squid! Eps 13 & 14 Review
I’ll combine two episodes because they deal about the break-up. Plus, I’m a firm believer that band-aids, and most things painful, should be ripped off as fast you can, so the discomfort is over fast, too. 1. She thinks/He thinks Their break-up hinged around this moment: It amuses me that such an innocent hug could […]
Hotel del Luna: Ep 11 Put Spoilers Here
Please put your spoilers, rants and raves here. Thanks. We’re heading to the beach again this weekend. This time to get in touch with my inner lobster and to feast on crabs. My sons and their girlfriends are joining us so I’m excited. I recently bought a mahjong set which I’d like to play with […]
Hotel del Luna: On Ariadne’s Ball of Thread
@barbrey’s been enlightening here about the connections between Greco-Roman mythology and this Hong sisters’ kdrama. Now, I don’t know how many of you, bitches and lurkers, dismiss her posts because ~~ ooooh, it’s not “canon” and it’s largely interpretative ~~ but I, for one, think that great screenwriters gather inspiration from many sources, and great […]
Hotel del Luna: Ep 10 @GB’s Thoughts on Attire
I’ll respond to your comment here, @growing_beautifully. 🙂 Thoughts on Attire Back to this show over here and the mystery of the missing button from CS’s cuff. CS did not realise his suit was incomplete. MW had pulled so hard on his sleeve that the button had gotten loose (it looked like all 4 buttons […]
Hotel del Luna: Ep 10 On Ghost Eyes and Blinking Eyes
@flying_tool asked a question. This is *my* interpretation. Nobody needs to argue with me. Bitches, please feel free to add your thoughts. Question on the meaning of the conversation between Mago 2 and Mago 3 in episode 10. Viki Mago 3:If Gu Chan Seong hasn’t taken the medicine, he should be able to see the […]
Hotel del Luna: Ep 10 In Memory of the Living pt 2
Part 1 is here. The third dead person is Chansung’s mother. Now, she’s a pretty interesting character because the Hong sisters don’t come out directly that Chansung was an unwanted baby. See here: compared with the CEO ghost and Manwol, her links to the living should have been the closest. After all, the CEO ghost […]
Hotel del Luna: Ep 10 In Memory of the Living
To me this episode showed three ways the dead regarded the people they left behind. The first dead person is pretty obvious. The CEO ghost cherished his granddaughter, Sulli. (I don’t care what her character name is, she’s Sulli to me.) A kiddie photo of her with her grandpa was kept in a children’s book […]
Go Go Squid! Episode 12+ Highlights
I’m convinced that Shanyang is a lying liar. And I’ve got the proofs! Aside from his actions at the amusement park, I’ve got his stepmom’s words and his conversation with Nian’s nosy friend Meimei in Episode 13, to back me up. This is one long review because I’ll cover one and half episodes. Warning: this […]
