1. On the red candy @nrllee says: Yeah I am not sure about the candy… The red I got when LA was stabbed and the candy rolled down into the shoe that LA gave her? But the others I am not sure. It’s featured so often it has to mean something… All I know is […]
He’s Psychometric: Ep 6 Notes
What do we know so far? A. 13 years ago fire in Yungsung Apartment was staged to cover up the death of the woman in the suitcase. 1. SungMo and his mother were being chased by the Killer #1 with a Suitcase. Mom felt that she had to die to end this all. SungMo hatched up […]
He’s Psychometric: Eps 5 and 6: Cuteness Overload
Just because I got caught up with the thriller “theories” of the show doesn’t mean I was blind to how cute Lee Ahn had been in these episodes. I’ve currently no room for the actor Park JinYoung in my top List of Top 4 Idols-turned-Actors, consisting of Do Kyungsoo of EXO, Siwan of ZE:A, Yoon […]
He’s Psychometric: Ep 5 Notes continued
The second installment. I think I’ll have to add a third one. 1. The new passcode = Lee Ahn’s birthday = his parents’ death anniversary Sungmo changed the passcode on the day before Lee Ahn’s birthday. 051203. But I don’t think Sungmo thought this through. Would Lee Ahn really want a reminder of his birthday […]
He’s Psychometric: Ep 5 Notes
I’m breaking up my random notes in two installments. Second half here: He’s Psychometric: Ep 5 Notes continued *********************** 1. Dec 3, 2005 Timeline I want things organized in my head. But it’s beginning to be difficult to keep track of the sequence of events because the director replays the same night while adding more details […]
He’s Psychometric: Ep 5 The Painting
The painting in SungMo’s room is the “Allegory of Prudence” by Titan. It’s hanging in the National Gallery of London. The three male heads represent three ages of man: old age, adulthood and youth. In the upper part of the painting there’s an inscription which explains the painting. “EX PRAETERITO PRAESENS PRUDENTER AGIT, NI FUTURUM ACTIONE […]
He’s Psychometric: Episode 4 Random Notes
As much as I like the relationships between JiSoo and Prosecutor Kang SungMo, and Lee Ahn and his classmate JaeIn, I’m keeping tabs on the cross-relationships: Jisoo+Lee Ahn and SungMo+Jaein. If I didn’t suspect SungMo of hiding a dark secret about the apartment fire, I’d eye his preoccupation with Jaein as reminiscent of Reply 1997. […]
He’s Psychometric: On the Use of Props
As Gertrude Stein wrote, “Rose is a rose is a rose is a rose.” To me, this line means that a word may APPEAR to be simple and common enough to be understood by all when in fact, it brings to mind many possible and different meanings, imageries and associations. Thus, it’s best to examine […]
He’s a Psychometric: Ep 4 On Kang SungMo
Everyone and their mother has a secret. That’s the great secret this show has been trying to reveal to us from the start. All has skeletons in the closet. Take for instance, Lee Ahn. His secret is the obvious one. He’s psycho. Or psychic. It’s understandable that he wants this gift/curse of his kept confidential. He’d […]
He’s Psychometric: Episode 3
Okay, if you haven’t started on “He’s Psychometric” yet, I’m suggesting you carve out time this weekend to do so. It’s fun to watch. I’m going to give you a few spoilers on the first 30 minutes of Episode 3 to show you how high school romance, work romance, mystery and fantasy all mixed together […]
He’s Psychometric: Eps 1 and 2 First Impressions
I’m down. I’m watching this kdrama because it’s entertaining. 1. The Male Lead, Lee Ahn, is a funny dimwit. I don’t know who this actor is and I prefer to remain ignorant of his biography. I read that he’s kpop idol of the group “Got Milk?” but I’ve already reached my maximum number of idol […]
