Starting to Get a Small Case of the Drags

I'm not enjoying the last couple of episodes as much as the rest of the series, but as I absolutely adored every episode up to this point, I'm still enjoying them to a degree. Things were starting to drag just a tad, there were some unnecessary scenes, but not too bad at all at this point, especially for Kdrama rom coms. They were still full of great moments.

The timing was right for some light to be shed on Yi Soo's problems. I absolutely loved the scene where the gentlemanly F4 came to her rescue. It was hilarious and heartwarming.

Very much liking the blossoming of relationships between Yi Soo and Colin and the rebel kid and Colin. And finally a very sweet moment between Rok and his wife! And the ending was very cute and promising.

I think the main reason it's felt rather draggy to me is I'm experiencing major culture gap here. I just can't wrap my head around why it is SUCH a terrible thing for a woman to date a man with a child. That makes zero sense to me no matter how I try to put myself in Korean shoes. I would think of that woman as rather admirable and "wow, she really loves that guy". That people would think there is something wrong with her is just not something my American brain can understand. So the apparent conflict between the leads is rather dull, to me.

Also I really don't see how they can keep this story up for four more episodes. Two more should do the trick.

So, 4 more eps to go.....

They finally let us in into the story behind her dislike for her mum....... This ep was basically about Colin, Kim Do Jin, Seo Yi Soo and Im Meahri

Hong Se Ra is beginning to lower that pride of ours.....it wasn't getting her to nowhere in the first place....an she has added something she and Seo Yi Soo shares on the list of property she wants to sell to solve her money issues....

Colin needs to school.....the ''best school'' was none other than the school where Yi Soo teaches.... I guess you know what class he will be placed in already.... and that just makes the relationship between Yi Soo and Do Jin more complicated....

We got to see the mother of Yi Soo and those 2 grown men from ep 14 I think, are you not giving Yi Soo any breathing space.....but not to worry her ''oppas'' sorted it out.....

Im Meahri has definitely.....should I say lost it?? She was shown crying her heart and soul out during the memorial of Jung Ah, Yoon's deceased wife, begging her to make Yoon like her.....in the presence of Yoon, her brother, Rok and Do Jin.... not a good sight.... now the atmosphere is reallllly tensed between the four friends...

What do we call the relationship between Yi Soo an Do Jin?? Push and pull?? or is it a situation, where we say the table has turned.....

There are still more 4 eps to go.... So far so good, I've enjoyed every bit of it.... I only wish they resolve their issues any little, just a little bit quicker......

Stretchy...

I actually loved this series until the last 3 episodes aired. Starting from episode 14 and onward (till now), I thought there were way too many fillers.

The character dynamics are being rehashed. I honestly feel like the last 3 episodes could have been condensed to 1 episode.

It also seems like they've dismissed Do Jin's illness. The last time that it was prominent was when Yi Soo found out about it. After that, they just seemed to ignore it.

The addition of Colin feels out of place. Perhaps, it's just me, but I feel like it's lacking any excitement. The characters feel like they're on a stalemate.

I can already predict where the story is heading. I loved how our OTP started off, but now they've become so dull. I'd rather watch the other couples.

The development b/w Yoon and Mea Ri keeps on going around in circle. When the heck is he gonna let their love course flow?

Some of the typical Korean elements are surfacing from these last few episodes. I thought they'd be able to escape it due to the unique characters. I guess not...
