MISA: somehow it began to totally own me. Oh no
Somewhere in ep 4, it's like a switch flipped on and I fell madly in love with Sorry I Love You. Which, seeing that it's very upfront about its lead eventually dying in horrific fashion from bullets in brain, is probably not good.
I've gotten to the point of really really hoping for a miracle cure even though I've seen the ending, and also writing AUs in my head.
Not good at all.
On the plus side, I have rarely seen a kdrama which fetishizes its leading man as much as MISA does So Ji Sub (who does fully desrve to be fetishized. YUM).
We'll see how long I last unweepy.
Oh, and the slash continues to give. Of course, Secondary Male, the thing to do with this drunk passed out guy you showered with is to bring him home to sleep it off. Not really too indicative, you say. Hah! How about the fact that when you bring said hottie home drunk, to your gigantic house with tons of extra rooms and extra sofas and beds, you put him in bed with you. WTF, oh Secondary Male?
Also, I totally HATE Male Lead's mother with a passion of a thousand suns. Shut up, you whiny *****!
But oooooh, Eun-Chae, the heroine, is adorable. If a total goof. Every time the OTP is together, I swoon a little.
EunChae leaves the room where Yoon (Secondary Male) has straightened things with his gf and was also horrid to her. She is falling apart.
So Ji Sub is incredibly good! (Despite the emo hat). You can tell the precise moment when he starts liking EunChae, without him speaking a word (it's good he is so expressive as MooHyuk is a pretty silent guy). I wonder if it's because he recognizes a kindred spirit, someone who has been cast aside by someone who should have loved her.
I love this whole scene, where he just trails her quietly. To make sure she is OK? To see what she will do? To be in her company? I don't think he knows himself. It's rather instinctual for him, almost unconscious.
OMG! He sees her stop, in the middle of all her misery and notice the crying child on the street and help her, and quiet her, and find her Mom for her. I bet this pushes all the buttons he has about abandoned children.
LOL. This is not theater, you doofus.
Secondary Male trying to prove he is straight. Nope, still not buying.
And MooHyuk quietly comes to stand by EunChae's side:
And stops her from accidentally being run over:
She asks him whether he is demented. And tests it by asking him capitals of Australia and Korea. LOL. He looks so young around her.
And then she all 'you are not demented, so let's go out for a date.' He almost chokes. LOL. Ohhhh, OTP!
Because I have a thing about bottles (btw, I am impressed by all the heroes and heroines who put this away by a ton, soju is way stronger than it tastes, IMO).
Drunk adorableness:
Seriously I ship them like mad. I am going to get my heart broken, won't it?
He is in pain, but she misinterprets and tries to feed him:
She is singing and he is in so much pain and emo and everything, I think she becomes merged into his ex for him. Funnily, at first (in first ep), I couldn't see why he was so desperate when his gf left him. I mean, broken heart after such a long-term relationship or all, but he was so fixated on her. And now I understand. It's the abandonment issue. It's like he is unworthy of love and loyalty, everyone is leaving him.
My God. I think here is where I went from liking it a lot to 'dling all the eps and staying up late to marathon' territory.
And he kisses her and they both collapse:
But are still clutching each other:
You are telling me Secondary Male is straight! he picks up an unconscious guy to bring him home to his bed! In a house with dozens of empty beds!
MooHyuk shares my WTF:
Oh, So Ji Sub. He has such an incredibly expressive face!
I love this shot. He so badly wants to be accepted as his mother's son, to 'replace' Yoon:
Stupid $^##@@ mother of MooHyuk cuts her feet on some glass and MooHyuk instinctively picks her up and bandages her foot. While the stupid woman keeps bleating for Yoon. *stab* Why, yes, I am getting irrational.
Did I mention he used a piece of his own shirt? LOL, oh fetishization, never leave:
Poor thing. His mother is all 'want Yoon blah blah, you are weird, I want my son' ugh. So MooHyuk decides to indulge in a little self-harm to make self feel better.
LOL. Pissed-off after last night EunChae is after him. Heeee.
Poor woobie!
Mmmmm.
You know, that is why I only watch the tragic dramas in strict moderation. I can't detach and snark. I get emotionally drawn in and thus eviscerated.
village, you were right, MISA is amazing.
Oh, and here is EunChae and MooHyuk shippy vid:
Also, I am a bad person. I am eagerly anticipating MooHyuk seducing Secondary Male's gf away from him for revenge.
