My Girlfriend is a Gumiho - more perfect by the second
These two scenes below the cut in ep 7 just killed me. They are so sweet and ridiculously young (because Mi Ho is young, despite being a spirit that is hundreds of years old) with the immediacy of children. And yet, parodoxically, they are not immature (Woong used to be but is not any more) and I love that.
He buys her a cellphone and she hugs him because this is the kind of present you give to humans. I just love the stunned look on his face, like his brain freezes utterly and he has no idea why. Oh darlings!
There is the whole thread in this story with Mi Ho wanting to read/watch things about supernatural critters who turn human but all these stories end badly. And to top it off, Fox Hunter gets her a copy of Little Mermaid, which is the most depressing story in existence (scarred my childhood) and will, unknowingly to Mi Ho, mirror her future dilemma - die or kill the person she loves. And I love that Woong doesn't want her to read it and tears out the last pages and lies it ends happily. Only Mi hears one of his friends talk about how it ends with the mermaid dying and goes to buy a proper copy for herself. This is such a beautiful scene, when he chases after her, and closes the book and tells her to believe him, they live happily ever after.
The thing that freaks me out is when she's floating away on an elevator in a sea of bubbles (bubbles courtesy of schoolchildren). Please don't be foreshadowing!
