I particularly enjoyed the acting in this episode—everything felt real & genuine, not forced. At the end of the quarrel, they both acknowledge they “do not understand” each other; which may be true to some extent, but the plot flow is not adequate for me to make anything of this statement, hence I shall not comment much on it.

Moving forward, HJW proclaims he was “lonely” in the relationship, probably having not gotten enough attention due to KSJ’s busy actor schedule. However, the drama also explains that KSJ deeply sacrificed for HJW (going to him on his birthday instead of attending a birthday party, even driving back 1h30mins just for a 2h rest for HJW before he has to go for his next shoot again), which illustrate the idea of how KSJ has this deep and pure puppy love for HJW. Notwithstanding, this does not flow with the “lonely” argument that HJW mentions of, and it is rather confusing to me. Does he want more attention and love from KSJ…? Even when he is not explicitly reciprocating (his love)? It’s hard to pinpoint HJW as he is a complex character, hard for me as a viewer to make of; and it is the drama’s duty to make characterisation clear for the viewers. Hence, I definitely had to take down some points for this.

Moreover, I did not thoroughly fancy the portion where the director and writers try to make sense of HJW’s behaviour and painting it off as a “bad childhood experience/trauma”. To me, it is no excuse to justify one’s behaviour—as I do see people with trauma from their parents still behaving appropriately in society, some even going to the extent of lending a helping hand when in need. Not that HJW does not lend a helping hand, but his sucky attitude towards KSJ is largely unacceptable and at times, infuriating as a viewer. The focus of the episode has entirely shifted, which makes me saddened as I am now seeking ways to justify this drama’s scoring. What seemed to be a 9/10 drama is now beginning to look quite like a 7-8/10.

Though, I particularly liked the scriptwriting of this episode too (other than acting). Mr Kim, KSJ’s manager/boss/honestlywhateverroleheplays, is rather wise, giving KSJ truth and only the truth—that his effort appears to be futile, and that he should leave this relationship especially if it is such a toxic one as depicted in the drama itself.To add on, I could see some chemistry in this episode though. For instance, the restaurant’s name is further emphasised that HJW is “waiting for KSJ” (supposedly, and this is how I interpret it since KSJ thinks about it for awhile before he is interrupted). Hopefully this naming of his restaurant will be explained in the next few episodes, or the effort in placing emphasis on the naming would all come to naught.Last of all, HJW also proceeds to start giving KSJ some advice such as “don’t be too friendly to the villagers… no harm in being careful” which all tell me that he struggles with trying to push for ways to express his love, and does it through little instructions like these. I do find it a bit too late, unfortunately.

Last of all, the ending to this episode was so abrupt. The ex girlfriend and HJW were talking, and the conclusion KSJ makes is that “he has been through tougher pain” ( than his current one with HJW). What on earth are the writers thinking? The conclusion should have been: Perhaps it is time to sympathise with HJW for he had such a painful relationship with trauma that he brought on to the relationship with KSJ, NOT the fact that he has been through tougher pain so that his own toxic love is disregarded for. The writers should all the more realise that KSJ needs to act as a mediator; to tell HJW what and how he should behave before he spirals out of control with his nonchalant behaviour. Also, the whole talk made me feel pissed off for KSJ, but I didn’t deduct points for my personal feelings.

Overall, this episode was not my cup of tea. It only produced even more questions, but with no answers for them. It is hoped that the drama stops narrating and inducing suspense by getting on to the actual issue of the drama: their love, and why/why not they fit one another. Overall, it gets a 7/10 for me. It falls below the average as there were many scenes that did not have explicit, clear links to the plot digression.
