I’m perplexed 😐

    Yup. There I was, cheering madly cos Joo-in and Hae-jin manage to save Bi-soo and give him his voice back. Then Little Grim Reaper has to pop up with his mad glaring eyes and pour cold water over everything.

    I think I said, What the heck, one too many times at the end. Still watching and loving it though, lol.

    I’m exhausted. This drama started out light, sweet and fun. It had plenty of elements already to add the required storytelling tension (different personality types, creative differences, mom illnesses, etc.). Now they’re just throwing the kitchen sink in there, too. I still enjoy it, I’m still watching – but primarily because when JooSoo are together, they blast off my screen electric. The first half of ep 9 was angst; then we got some catharsis; and now we’re set up for more angst? I’m wondering if I should pause and wait to watch the rest until it finishes.

      The writing is so messed up… 😕

        I thought the linking of the birth secret and the love triangle was done quite sensibly and even economically. In a single episode, Bi-soo and his mum reveal all to each other; his mum promptly shows the stepdad the door; and on witnessing Bi-soo’s suffering, Joo-in realises and confesses just how much she cares about her “cat”. And Joo-in was also admirably resolute when she rejected the ad campaign with Yoo-jin and came clean to her manager about being Bi-soo’s housemate.

        And then the writer spoils it all with Mad Glaring Eyes.

          The second half of ep 9 did pull itself back on track, I thought. I really liked how he just told his mom what happened with the stepdad – 100% took the venom out of his threat. I was so happy the drama did that vs having Bi-soo keep it to himself.

            Episode 10 is bloody awful though. Not just because of what it’s about, but because it pointlessly repeats ep9’s pattern. When the LUCA characters were pursued and beaten up over and over again, at least there was a good reason for it. Oh Master Ep10 felt like the writer either had a fit of absent-mindedness, or decided that the audience would appreciate Joo-in’s steadfastness only if she endured the same crap twice.
