I really hope that SM goes the revenge route but I'm not sure she will. Why did she ask her father to not tell SW about JI's father being the murderer? And all those drawings of JI on her wall? Yikes.

JI needs to pay. It doesn't matter that he is sad that he "killed" his friend. He still committed the act! And for such selfish reasons at that too!

Have you seen ep 4? I hate JI even more now.

The synopsis said something about SM using her knowledge to control JI which - yesss! I don't care if she uses it to fulfill her stalker fantasies and make him hers, because I know that will make him miserable and thus me happy.

Yeah, that mirror scene in ep. 4 was... something else.

Hello there, future serial killer! It freaked me out like nothing else.

And when he's all "I am going to have everything I want and feel guilty for your death. is that enough?' Are you kidding me? Ugh. That's a new level of sociopath.

Btw, the actor playing his father's friend is very familiar but I can't place him.

Hard to miss him for anyone watching k-dramas. Currently pulling double duty, his role on TEM + one of Jung Bo-Seok's generals in God of War. Best known for his role as Bidam's teacher in Queen Seondeok, but you watched most of his dramas so it could be any one of them. He also does cameos, eg. he's the guy who interrogated Hyun-Joon in IRIS after he neutralized the terrorists' attack.

The drama's cinematography continues to be gorgeous and the music has finally toned down.

To the point of disappearing :) but no complaint there.

Having seen ep. 4, I miss the alluring quality that the child Soo-Mi was able to convey, Im Joo-Eun feels a little too ordinary. But we'll see.

It's interesting to me - I had a very easy time transitioning with the two male leads - LJW looks a lot like his child version, so that helps, and has the same ticks. And while I am a fan of UTW so I am sure it helped, I think he's got the certain wildness child SW had down. I was never particularly invested in SM so I wasn't paying as much attention to her.

Yup, I've seen this actor in a ton of stuff, thanks!

Oh I loved it when UTW was muttering to himself, his 'f*ck the diagnosis' moment. That was so very much the kid Sun-Woo, it really helped me make the connection. Soo-Mi is supposedly a femme fatale character who could not only bring down Jang-Il but also gets him like nobody else, and I'm not getting that vibe from the adult actress. Doesn't help that I keep picturing Park Si-Yeon instead (she turned down the role).

Had they had Park Si Yeon in this role, I would have continued to think of A Man's Story (The Story of Man aka Slingshot - drats the English titling snafus). She'd have been in love twice with a sociopath. Or rather once with a psychopath and this time with a sociopath ( ... )

OMG, I just realized that Lee Hyun Woo's played the little Uhm Tae Woong once before in Queen Seon Deok! How awesome!
