Ep. 4: We just keep rolling a long....

This episode was filled with such ups and downs. I still love how straight forward these two are here.

...and let's all give props to the 2nd leads love story. That one is as epic as the main's and they were the ones who had me giggling and crying throughout this episode.

Let's be honest here, other than the foreign actors, everyone is doing such a great job. But I have to say, with all the $$$ being thrown around here, couldn't they get legit quality foreign actors for these parts??? Heck, hire me and fly me over. I'd do a kickass job compared to these fools! I got an Intl Bus BS degree with a minor in Finance... but I still managed to get the part of Elvira in my University's production of the play Blithe Spirit. You don't need a full fledged actor to have someone do the job decently. Come on, folks!

Anyway....

All I can say is... THE KISS... I knew when he got back that this was were that scene was gonna come in, thanks for all those trailers, 1/8th of every episode I have little ability to predict. I'm not complaining because I like the fact that skinship happened at this point. It was truly right on cue. Mo Yeon & Si Jin are both just having an emotional crisis, but Si Jin is the first to fully lose control. It's hard to constantly rein in all this emotional energy flying about and in that lighthearted down time, and all her flirty talk, it was just the right move. I'm not even gonna blame him for it and, GOD, I hope when ep. 5 comes out she doesn't slap him for it in the end. .... I'm just gonna expect that confession scene.

Lastly, I just want to say that SJK's voice is all sorts of manly. I think it's the thing that floors me about him. Joking or serious, he just exudes manliness with that deep gutteral tone. If I ever had the opportunity to meet him, I'd hand him a book like War & Peace or Shogun and say, "just read for me, will ya?" .... that's it.... Just read. lol.... He should seriously consider doing Books on Tape for a side career. I'm sure he'd have a major fanbase.
