Behind Your Smile Episode 12 Reacties
I know a lot of people might find this slow. For me this emotional build up is perfection. All the sweet and wonderful moments of Yi Ting and Xin Yu are potent. Yet shadowed by his lies and the lies he has to keep telling her to mask them. Quite honestly it's terrifying and awesome. (I know I'm a sucker for emotional punishment.
The shopping scene was so much fun! Especially as she got him to carry her pink bag! Ha-ha. Though again foreshadowed by him not letting her in on any front. I'm a big communicator, in a lot of ways I'm like Xin Yu. Guarding myself once I like someone is impossible. When I fall in love I want them to be just as open. It hurts when they can't be, and I know if we can't change together it's best to leave. So I truly empathized with Xin Yu. Even with feeling so in love that you're willing to put it all on the line in hope and faith.
Okay, that aside I loved the gentlemanly face off of Yi Ting and Tang. Phew. Not to mention that I called it! Tang is the villain, and I am truly curious how the whole farm thing went down. Poor Yi Ting is in for a shock when he realizes he's been working with his sworn enemy and punished the wrong person. (Though it's still not revealed how much Lin Man is off the hook.)
Oh, and what's with Qian Ren telling Yi Ting to give up on her and let him have her! Firstly Qian Ren backed off and let Yi Ting and Xin Yu happen. Those emotions for her won't just vanish. This is a second lead trope that I despise. She's in love and no she's not an object you can pass around. If he would have perused her there's no doubt in my mind she would have fallen for him. He might not be her savoir, but I think if he kept pushing she'd have respected his honesty.
Anywho, what a brilliant emotional mess! Not to mention the plot is really building. I've gotten a lot of comments from other viewers that Behind Your Smile is slow. I'll admit it doesn't have swift pacing, and if the tropes were less utilized it would have more time. Yet the pace works just right for a pretty decent build up. With this episode being the pinnacle point of the build up.
(Yeah! The mysterious man of correspondence appears! I wondered if he would step into the show or be only in email form. Very curious to see how he'll affect the story.)
