Quick Thought On Mary Stayed Out Ep 6 - (Plus Giant MW/Miju)
- We have achieved jealously! MK is so jealous he doesn't know what to do with himself. He's so angry that he's yelling at people and losing his cool. I find it oddly sexy. And that ending! I'm so glad we don't have to wait until week to find out what happens next.
In other news: all three parents piss me off. MK's mom is immature and selfish. MR's dad is immature and an idiot. JI's dad is creepy and emotionally/mentally abusive. It makes me wonder about SJ's parents.
After six episodes, I've decided the show's strength is the MK/MR stuff. I love that in any other drama, JI would be the Hero - with his aloofness and coldness and richness. And MK would be the artist/musician Bohemian Secondary Lead; the guy MR would lean on, but ultimately dump/break his heart. But not here! Here it's the other way around. I love that! I was thinking about something have feelings for JI. This was said in the character descriptions. Honestly, I think if she does start to have feelings for him it'll be for two reasons: a) she feels sorry for him. It's clear he's dad is creepy and demanding and b) he's the perfect K-drama Hero and MR sometimes confuses reality with her love of the Drama. She may think he's for her because he's following all the rich, cold-hearted-in-need-of-poor-plucky-girl-to-melt-it guy cliches with her: the makeover, the job, etc; but, she'll see that the Heroes in Dramas don't really make for good husbands in real life. Because, honestly, you may love and root for Min-woo or Kang Suk or Joo Won or In Soo or whoever - but, would you really want to deal with their issues and BS for the rest of your life? Would you want to attend their therapy sessions and calm them down when they get too serious or upset or claustrophobic? I think not.
As for Giant - I can't believe there are only three episodes left. It's so great to know (thanks to an ann. comment) that MW/Miju are THE couple the Korean fans care about. It's no wonder the writer is milking the angst for all its worth. But, seriously, it's time for that to end. I won't go into it, as I've harped on it enough.
