Off I go to a suicidal mission, hey-oh!
*iz ded* Korean TV entertainment is pure crack ... either hilarious or it brings you to your knees. FAITH definitely goes into the latter category! Eps 10 and 11 kill me (ep11 - from yesterday is already out and subbed)!!!!
As dangermousie put it so fittingly: Choi Young and Eun Soo, even the bad guys are shipping you!
And how can you not ship a 14th warrior with a profound death wish who does everything to protect a 21st century doctor who in turn asks him to return with her to her timeline so he doesn't have to kill ppl anymore???!!! And then lying to him she doesn't need him anymore and him going all suicidal again ... OMG! Can't wait for ep12!!!
I just loved everything about ep10 and ep11 ... I don't know if it is intentional or not, but I love the fact that they from time to time use the bad guys as comic relief. Ki Cheol is hilarious when he tries to figure out something Eun Soo said (he is still thinking she cursed him with her 'Fuck Off').
And Nogook and Gongmin-ah!!! Make babies for Goryeo already!!!! That should be your highest priority right now (well that and getting rid of Ki Cheol).
I love that the ice warrior is gone, that he by instinct knows that Eun Soo is in trouble and he faces his enemies with a nonchalance that is both suicidal and brave. And Eun Soo slowly, almost unconsciously realizing that she has a very soft spot for our suicidal warrior and does everything (even lying to him) to protect him. You so need each other ... not only to get Eun Soo back to her time line but also to heal both of you. Choi Young, I wonder if you would ever forget Eun Soo's face - I doubt it.
This drama is so good! It has been a long time a Korean drama gripped me as this one, and a historical to boot. Heck any drama atm. Need to d/l it asap!
Arang and the Magistrate! Even though I said I only watch it for the awesomeness that is Lee Jun Ki, I really loved the last 3 eps. Character development. I guess Arang finding her heart is as important to all (esp. the Jade Emperor and Eun Oh) as it is to find out who is responsible for her death (and the impending entrapment/killing of demon lady). And poor Moo Yeoung - our favourite Grim Reaper is at the end of his tether. 'Come one, Old fart, tell him already so he can prepare himself!!'
I loved the scenes between Arang and Eun Oh - whether they are bickering at each other, full out quarrel or find themselves in these little awkward silences where they just look at each other. And LJK hasn't lost his hand at martial arts, that fighting scene with the ghouls?! RAR RAR RAR!!! But what is it with this fan? The writings .. is it some heirloom from his mom? Is his mom's soul still protecting him even though she was pretty gaga to begin with without a demon taking her body?!
And that Magistrate uniform???? Never thought it was so hot!!!! Omo, omo, omo - I already thought that guy in Sungkyunkwan Scandal looked good as a magistrate running around on roofs, but here? Aigoo!!!
And though Dol Sae really got on my nerves with his Young Master here, Young Master there bit, I love the fact that he might hook up with shaman woman, these two are just hilarious together.
And Jul Wa ... damn shame you are a serial killer from an early age (when he was eight? WTF!) If not for his adoptive father and that demon, he would make a very decent human being.
Can't wait for ep11!!!
