I can only assume this is the part of Orchid's destiny the Turtle was talking about! It's interesting in the dream Orchid eventually hugged Xie Wan Qing . In the mirror her face over took Orchid's but in the dream the little girl (I assumed was Orchid) hugged Xie Wan Qing. Is Orchid her sister and Xie Wan Qing did something dangerous to keep her primordial soul from being destroyed? Or I'm over thinking it.Orchid is distancing her self from Dongfang Qing Cang after he stated he'd take over Orchid's land and people. After he asked if she could let go and be with him, and she asked if he'd let go of his path for her it's clear these too are stubborn!!! Ha-ha! It also broke my heart a little. I was super surprised Chang Heng jumped to enter the mortal realm for trials after Dan Yin said he'd marry Orchid. What's more shocking is the baby that Dongfang Qing Cang's younger brother found is Xie Wan Qing's reincarnation or soemthing? Was her spirit broken up? So the baby will grow up to look like Orchid . . . or what. I feel like I'm missing something key here! This was more of a setup episode for the next act. I know there's more to go, but I want a passionate kiss between Orchid and Dongfang Qing Cang! I'm curious to see what is going to happen with Dongfang Qing Cang, Orchid, Shang Que, and Jie Li pretending to be mortal. part of me thought Orchid was going to find out that Chang Heng became mortal and jump in after him. Speaking of holy cow Dan Yin! My poor girl! That unwavering love. I do truly hope that Dan Yin and Chang Heng end up together.

8.0/10 - So emotionally deep! Finally some Dongfang Qing Cang backstory.

It's such a relief to get some backstory on Dongfang Qing Cang! To see a loving and doting father to a cruel man. I know there's more that Dongfang Qing Cang missed. It's heartbreaking. Dongfang Qing Cang doesn't fully realize that his Love Root or emotional root is truly being revived. I wondered why he had been handling it so well. He didn't believe Orchid could do it. This episode is so intense! Seeing Dongfang Qing Cang of the present worried about getting his emotions back after all he went through before. Not to mention he probably doesn't want to lose his mighty powers. The scene about the maid from the past was very touching. Annoyingly Jie Li decides she's going to rob Dongfang Qing Cang. Of course to save her neck she says it's all for Orchid cause she wanted it. After he realizes that Jie Li had grabbed a sentimental items of value to him, he loses it. Shang Que even tries to help her and angers Dongfang Qing Cang even further. Orchid steps in when Dongfang Qing Cang's had enough and decides to just kill Jie Li. Which leads to Jie Li finally deciding that Orchid is a good person and her friend. We'll see how long it takes before Jie Li throws Orchid under the bus. Dongfang Qing Cang's mood is on the war path. I think it's due to having all these memories from the Memory River and then the fear of getting his emotions back. It's intense. Soon he's ordering his brothers execution for 3 days later. On the anniversary of when he killed his father. Orchid isn't giving up on him though. She's determined to find out what really happened. Because she has faith in Dongfang Qing Cang.

8.0/10 - This was really intense and well written. I feel the feels.

Chang Heng! He was imprisoned that fast!!! How did Immortal Emperor know? Honestly I think it was super shady. Because Rong Hao had just finished asking if Chenag Heng new what he'd do to get his master back. Betrayal was super fast, I feel like Rong Hao had a bigger scheme. Nooooooooooo! They're giving my Black Dragon, Shang Que, to Jie Li! I really loath her. Guess my dreams of Dan Yin and him are not going to ever happen. The thing is the whole scene where Jie Li and Dragon, Shang Que are bonding over both being orphans and talking about how the experiences changed them differently didn't warm me up to Jie Li. Shang Que took all the terribleness and turned it into honesty and goodness. I didn't even feel that bad when Shang Que shares that Dongfang Qing Cang saved him, and Jie Li shares know one has ever saved her. Which is odd, I should feel more compassion, but Jie Li rubs me the wrong way. Because right after she puts Orchid in immediate danger. Bullying her into leaving with her. *eyeroll* Orchid is promptly kidnapped by Rong Hao. Who thought he as going to get Rong Hao, but gets the bigger fish. Which reveals why Rong Hao made sure Chang Heng is imprisoned. What a plan to trick Orchid by pretending to be Chang Heng. Not to mention that he makes up somewhere safe for her to fix the Spirit Book. Dongfang Qing Cang is truly amazing rescuing Orchid. When she asks how he knew which was her and not an illusion and he answers that he would know her anywhere it stung. Because he asks why she suddenly fixes the Spirit Book, and it was because Chang Heng asked her to. Rong Hao exclaimed that he didn't expect Orchid to realize that he was impersonating Chang Heng so fast. The truth is like she told Dongfang Qing Cang, the stand he broke was there. Then she asked a question to trick Rong Hao into confirming things 100%. So I did like that. Progress. This was a pretty intense episode. I liked it and it was HUGE on character development. Especially between Orchid and Dongfang Qing Cang. Orchid says she won't ever leave until he's healed and I think Dongfang Qing Cang realizes that he might be experiencing some of his own emotions. Like fear and worry over Orchid which plays out so intensely. Then to follow it up with this hunter camp made it even more intense. Ending with Dongfang Qing Cang wondering why NOW Orchid doesn't want him knowing what she's thinking. Oh, we know. *grin*

8.0/10 - From beginning to end what a surpise!

This episode was pretty epic! From start to finish! Watching Dongfang Qing Cang return and all those men bowing. Orchid joining in. To see Dongfang Qing Cang pleased by cowing her, but then being bothered and just wanting her to be like before with him. His anger getting the best of him when he couldn't understand what she liked about her real home. I mean the surprise was amazing, but I get Orchid. Sometimes a fake is the worse. A replica can hurt more. Oh, and she brings up Chang Heng again. So yeah jealousy ensues. It's interesting to meet Dongfang Qing Cang's brother. Dongfang Qing Cang realizes his brother wants to kill him for murdering his father. So I'm guessing little brother didn't get brutalized by daddy dearest. The other two men looming over Orchid's life don't get as much time, but they're being setup for their plots. Chang Heng wants to storm the place and kill Dongfang Qing Cang, but Immortal Empero is flexing his muscle saying Chang Heng can't do anything unless he gives the command. Rong Hao is infurated at the failure of his plan. He vows to get Orchid and the Spirit book one way or the another! This was the perfect kind of build up for the forbidden love that this drama clearly is. Oh, that ending. Orchid I didn't know you had it in you! That was no accidental slip kiss. Oh, no. Dongfang Qing Cang can't fight it. He wanted to help her and reach out. He can't resist! I can't imagine where the next episode is going to go! I mean I can, but . . . will it?

8.0/10 - Oh, this was a huge step up!!!!

It was sweet when Dongfang Qing Cang realizes the anxiety Orchid had was for his safety. Oh, my!!!!! AND I think Shang Que [Qing Cang's lieutenant] is totally getting suspicious. He's picking up that Dongfang Qing Cang is catching feelings. This episode was so swoon worthy!!! He isn't pressuring her to fix the spirit book because he knows how important it is for her to become a fairy. Especially as this episode gets super crazy! I mean when Dongfang Qing Cang actually says "How dare you hurt my girl". Holy. Cow! It does hurt a little because Dongfang Qing Cang might be putting on more of a show to make people think he's in to her and not that he has to keep her alive to stay alive. Hats off to Rong Hao's scheming. Since he's so close to Chang Heng he knew exactly how to get him off his trail. And onto Dongfang Qing Cang's trail and to do his bidding. Wow! Becasue then Rong Hao can help his friend out and nothing looks out of the normal. The mystery thickens as The Great Turtle calls Orchid an old friend. If she is the old god of war, does that mean she's had her memories stripped yet again? The plot thickens!Overall I did not expect this episode to go down like this. Dongfang Qing Cang barely broke a sweat while facing off with Chang Heng and Rong Hao. Then he faced the Immortal Emperor and EVERYONE and was wiping the floor with them. I mean where the Immortal Emperor collapses back on his throne showing what I think is fear was epic! Then he has a face off with Chang Heng again. Clearly Chang Heng would have died, but it's not clear if Dongfang Qing Cang quit becasue of the no or he new it word hurt Orchid in the long run. HIs plan to flood the place was smart. While also proving that Chang Heng can not pick Orchid. He has responsibilities that are more important. I felt for Orchid when she had to leave because now she's a traitor. Shang Que [Qing Cang's lieutenant] turning into a dragon was epic! Dongfang Qing Cang doesn't quite know if he wants Orchid to fear him. He looked upset when she nodded that she did, but then she shook her head. Clearly she was humbled, bumbling about all the past stuff she'd said and done! But Dongfang Qing Cang enjoyed Shang Que scaring her with his dragon roar a bit too much. That dragon ride was crazy!

6.0/10 - Promising.

Okay, I had kind of put aside that Rong Hao's master was the Former God of War. I was right though! The boy is a creeper. Putting the face of his master on those poor girls! Apparently angering and killing them so regularly the guards where all like "Another dead maid, drag the body away!" Yikes! So this episode was awesome because the big reveal of Rong Hao's identity! Not to mention who's body he's been stashing!! Wowza! Let me complain about Rong Hao's flute playing. The actor wasn't even trying! Or maybe they decided it looked better fake! I don't know! But it was kind of distracting!Onward! This was a huge character driven episode. Everyone now knows about Zhang Ling HeChang Heng's feelings for Orchid, well except her of course! I like how Fairy Dan Yin thanks Orchid. Even with her jealousy. It's revealed that Dongfang Qing Cang's father may have killed his emotions root. Interesting. I mean it's been disturbing. I was thinking maybe they were going to go the mental health way with him or something. The emotional root dead is unique. There's also another fairy out to get Orchid and the firefly thing is an interesting setup. Rong Hao's evil henchwoman was one? Orchid fed and invited that one back into the stone. Then that other fairy who left everyone to die and hates Orchid turned a rock into one? I'm puzzled, but intrigued where that will go. The last episode was brilliant at showing us how worthy and amazing Orchid is. I think this one was even better and Chang Heng clearly had the right idea while praising her. I'm curious as to what Orchid's real identity is. Is she a shard of the Former God of War, or the new reincarnated version? What exactly? Not to mention what is Rong Hao going to do to her now in the name of his master?

9.0/10 - Dong Baek is changing!

Huh, Yong Shik IS smart. I like that he’s realized that his bumpkin ties can help him get answers out of the people. So even though the other cops and chief work in the area the place is like being in the mob. Even to catch a serial killer they won’t give you answers if you’re an outsider. Jong Ryul faces hard truths about his wife. She’s only too willing to leave him all alone with their daughter for 2 years. I believe Yonk shik has summed it up well. Jong Ryul is looking back at what he’s lost. What he could have had. He gave up everything for his current life, and he’s not happy. It’s the life he worked to get and he has no right to just try to break into Dong Baek’s. It breaks my heart when Yong Shik shows up with ice cream for Pil Goo’s team. To see all the kids eating ice cream. But to also see Dong Baek and Jong Ryul sitting together. I do like that Dong Baek tells Jong Ryul this:
“I was never a supporting role of someone’s life. I was always the lead actress.”Not to mention that her life is not his. She’s in control and she’s made her choices. Jong Ryul followed Dong Baek back to the Camellia. He can see that Dong Baek is happy with Yong Shik. When she glows when Yong Shik comes in. Not to mention that Yong Shik takes Jong Ryul out for noodles and confronts him head on. Which leads to a beautiful 5am shopping trip with Dong Baek and Yong Shik. Yong Shik says he’s not smart and doesn’t understand women. Especially Dong Baek. However, Yong Shik is mart enough to know that Jong Ryul is the only man she’s ever dated. That he needs to make it clear that he, Yong Shik, is not Jong Ryul. He is someone else. They’re getting to know each other and it’s so sweet. That dramatic ending. I think it's safe to say that Gyu Tae is probably not the killer. It would be a twist now maybe, but he's the obvious choice and I feel like the writers are already denying it. I actually feel like he's a joke and an obvious choice for Joker to kill. ^_- I mean they have to get serious at some point.

10/10 - Old Dong Baek dies, new Dong Baek raises her head!

Ja Young is way cool. Love how she just turned on her pervert husband. She even planned ahead. I wonder if she new that Gyu Tae would try to steal the ledger of his sins. I love that the other women started to hate on Dong Baek, but all it took was one woman to say the men deserved it. They they all started to grudgingly respect her. I hope Dong Baek meant what she said to Gyu Tae when she made him apologize and drop the lawsuits. That the old Dong Baek is dead. She’s going to be strong now. Yong Shik has her holding her head up high! Yong Shik is so shocked that Dong Baek didn’t turn him down for dumplings. After the talk Dong Baek had with Duk Soon that she should see if she truly wants to be with Yong Shik, but that Duk Soon will never approve, I thought it would deter Dong Baek again. Dong Baek admits she has feelings. While Yong Shik reminds her that he had them all first and reaffirms everything. After Yong Shik says love is like fire, Dong Baek shuts that idea down. Yong Shik is unphased saying you’re pushing me away and eats happily. Until Dong Baek says this:
“Steam is all you need to cook dumplings you know. You don’t have to boil them to cook them. Forget fire. Why don’t we just take it slow and be warm together? You can love like fire, but it’s all over when you break up.”She explains all the loves in her life that burned like fire went out. They leave her. So she wants to stay warm for a long time. I love the idea of not loving like fire, but loving like steam. He-he. Yong Shik is still very determined to solve the murder and we end with him deciding on how he will find Joker. He is a native, but isn’t the police Chief? Or maybe he isn’t and that’s why he makes those comments about the women of the area. OH, yeah! I remember ending up there was a demotion. So maybe he wasn’t a native when he originally was placed there.

7.0/10 - Ah, their a cute couple.

Let’s address this “Only love you sign.” It just cracks me up the more I see it! What Dong Baek’s employee isn’t saying is that lurking like that is creepy! He’s a stalker! AT least she got Jong Ryul to go in and eat. (Yes, his wife is starving him!) Though I don’t like how Dong Baek uses Yong Shik as a buffer. She encourages him only because she needs to stick it to Jong Ryul. I love how Dong Baek and Yong Shik start the walk with her carrying the backpack, and then as she gets more comfortable Yong Shik has the backpack. He learns that she is one tough cookie and that despite him saying he’d protect her that she doesn’t need to be rescued. She’s bold and brave. Just because she doesn’t “bark” like everyone, doesn’t mean she isn’t tough. Then he ruins it by saying she’s sexy! Dong Baek smacks him and takes the backpack away! Yes, yes. Yong Shik finally has a since of duty!!! LOL, the Chief is so dense sometimes. At least the Chief has drive and he genuinely cares about the Joker and Dong Baek. He is one of the few people who sympathized with her plight. Gosh, I really hope that women in Dong Baek’s shoes, and widows, aren’t truly treated like that! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh! I just love how Dong Baek and Duk Soon refer to each other as besties!! Not to mention that Yong Shik finally realizes his mom and Dong Baek are best friends! Now Dong Baek is gonna find out that Yong Shik is Duk Soon’s son. I wonder how Duk Soon will handle it. I’d think she’d be happy her son has such good taste. My final thoughts are seeing Jong Ryul take and interest in Pil Goo. What a cute kid! Not to mention noticing that the kid doesn’t like carrots or cucumbers like him, and that Pil Goo will grow up. I wonder if Pil Goo will guess that Jong Ryul is his dad? He’s a really smart kid. I don’t see why it’s so sad that Pil Goo already has a sense for money. I’ve grown up that why. I use to plan out how to by things as a kid down to the penny on the taxes for it. But I guess some people wipe their butts with dollar bills. ^_-

7.0/10 - Some major clues dropped for the Joker!!

Wow, I love that Yong Shik put it together so fast! Well it makes a lot of sense now. Dong Baek moved in then the Joker killings started, and she ended up being a witness to a murder. Fiddle sticks. Talk about being a black sheep because your single and have a child. But to be “marked” by a serial killer. Wow, so she did almost go out of business then. Because the police and media branded her a prostitute or immoral woman. The cops even stayed in the building so she couldn’t make money. Ah, Yong Shik is so awesome this episode. He might be weird, but I like his honesty and sincerity. I think he's smarter then he gives himself credit for as well. I wish Jong Ryul was more of a lead. I’ve loved the actor, Kim Ji Suk, since Another Miss Oh. So far he's a very basic setup and not a very likable love interest from what we know. What is given is that he is also clearly very much not over Dong Baek. His own team mates don't know his wife's name, but anyone that he's been drunk around knows Dong Baek. He's still very much in love, or at least obsessed, with her. Now he's being a creeper to though! Parking outside of her restaurant/house. Making judgements about her!!! Oh, so she can't move on and have a life. -_- Ah, so the Joker is a regular customer!! What a big reveal!!!!!!!!! So we know he's a regular at Dong Baek's place. The year is 2013 right now in the storyline, and he wrote that message not too log ago. He also has flour on his shoes. So he probably works in the area at the many places you can eat.

6.0/10 - Boy he jumped at the chance to be "dating" fast.

Yong Shik’s not sure why Dong Baek held his hand, but boy is he gonna work it! That mutt indeed!!! He jumps right in and I thought all that he said was a confession. I can’t believe that everyone gets so worked up over a hand hold still!! Dong Baek at least was blunt that she was declining his advances. She just sadly worked him up and used him! Plus, dissed him hard.“What was that? Was that a declaration of war, or a love confession?” - Dong BaekI can’t believe those women want to get Dong Baek evicted. Aren’t their husbands gonna blow the money somewhere else? Is it so hard to put themselves the shoes of a single mother? They only leave Yong Shik’s mother alone because she’s older and “not a threat”. They fear Dong Baek’s youth and beauty. When it’s all the men’s fault. After 6 years she’s never had an affair, and dated. WTF! Not only that but to lie and say that Dong Baek is having an affair with Mr. No. The wife is right. Your man wants to cheat he will. Whether or not the single mom running the bar is there. But she thinks she has his balls in a vice and even if Dang Baek came on to him he wouldn’t cheat. Men are fickle creatures and once they think with the little head . . . . (Also, it’s always impressive to see a woman driving? What year is this drama taking place? These women run their own businesses!!?)Holly crap! Did that dude just assume she was single because she was driving and a working women. I know other women drive in other dramas. Is this a problem? Yikes! This means Ja Young, Mr. No’s wife, should feel for Dong Baek’s plight. The plight on discriminated and judged women!! Well I was gonna tell Mr. No that she had a kid to feed, but apparently she is snubbing him! I wonder if Donog Baek’s waitress knew what to do to get Mr. No to refocus his affections. “I respect you.” Now his wife shows up and I’m ticked with her! WTF!! This is a single mother. Why would you turn anyone out on the streets for the actions of another. Ah, I was wondering were that whole fight scene with Mr. No and Yong Shik was going. He sees the words from the killer on the wall. I’m starting to wonder if Dong Baek was the witness from the murder. Not to mention if she picked up on her employees hint. Some men only want a woman who keeps turning them down. Sounds like Mr. No?

7.0/10 - Dong Baek's dream is to just be treated well.

Poor Yong Shik is probably not going to be in good standing with Dong Baek. The kid doesn’t say why he’s getting into fights. But he knows people bully his mom. Just as they bully him. So when he has to stand up for his mom all that anger comes out and he lets her have it. He is the child she should be aware of what she needs to do to protect him. Of course the kids are going to pick on him for the same reasons the adults do!! It’s awful that these are people who can’t even fill shame when they finally push someone to tears. Instead they find fault in her being pretty and crying. Even though I doubt she’s burst into tears before. A boy stands up to them for his mother and they still can’t be moved to be decent people!! Oooooo, I love a show and a female lead who doesn’t beat around the bush. Much like Jong Ryul says. I wonder what the big reveal will be for the break up. Jong Ryul didn’t want a kid, or Dong Baek decided she didn’t want to “ruin” his career. Ah, I love how Yong Shik asked to be friends! But I hate that Dong Baek decided to use him to confuse Jong Ryul. Now poor Yong Shik is asking if they are dating!! I wish he would have stayed calmer. After all what she needs right now is to be treated well and have a friend on her side.

7.0/10 - Dong Baek has a great kid on her hands.

“I told you five years ago not to be a joke.” More stunned reaction from Yong Shik, but I don’t think it’s her. It’s relief from him that it's not Dong Baek. Guess this is how each episode will start until we catch up to that scene. It’s sweet he wants to walk her there safely, but he can’t see how it’s also a threat to her. Men are scummy, weirdo, pervs who can use gentlemanly actions to get what they want. Especially after Mr. No just tried to dominate her. Honestly Mr. No likes his butt kissed. Also, I agree with Yong Shik sounds like he to win people with money. His wife makes him feel inferior, so he needs to make others feel inferior and people to praise him. All the other men backing him up like that is wrong! "You’re bad mouthing her for not liking you. " So true! You're not a good person if you do this to people and I love that Yong Shik can also fight back with words of truth.What a smart kid! Dong Baek has a great kid on her hands. He's smart to realize that he needs to comfort and reasure his mother. Plus, his rational seems so well thought out. Like he's waited for his mom to ask, and he's already put a lot of thought into whether or not he wants to meet his dad. It's sad seeing the kids bully him, but then the women do it to Dong Baek. It's just insane that the women blame her for all the ills that happen in the area. Especially for another business woman to think that Dong Baek should refund her for her husband spending the money there. I wanted Dong Baek to say "can your husband refund the booze and food!" It's sweet that Duk Soon [Yong Shik's mother] comes to her rescue. Duk Soon helps Dong Bake and respects her because when she was a young attractive widow they shamed her. Which is awful. There was no difference between her losing her husband and Dong Baek being single because the men flirted. Why is it shameful to be a single mom and to work to feed your family? This stigma on women has always bothered me. We've come a long way in the States, but there's still a Stigma. Right down to our paychecks. I liked that Yong Shik had such a frank conversation with the kid. The kid gives his stamp of approval! Like I said the kid is smart. He realizes that Yong Shik understands him. Whether or not the kid is giving approval of Yong Shik for his mom. He realizes he's a figure he needs in his life. "My lady who is also filled with twists has a son. " Yong Shik reaction is perfect to realizing how the kids mom is. Sidenotes: So it looks like Dong Baek's comment about her being able to see the kids dad anytime hints heavily to me, and the dolphin comment, that Jong Ryul, the baseball guy, is probably the father. At first I thought Jong Ryul might be Yong Shik's older brother, but I'm doubting it. That would also be too much to have all three brothers jumping for the female lead. I think one of the brothers should like Dong Baek's employee.

7.0/10 -It's so weird seeing Kang Ha Neul play such a weirdo.

Yikes awful first meeting. It had all the makings of a good one since it was in a bookstore! It also looks like that geranium bracelet is on Dong Baek’s wrist. Though it’s weird seeing actor Kang Ha Neul play such a creepy character. I was quirky in Twenty, and a dream in Scarlet Heart Ryoe, but now he’s just off. He gave me the pervy vibes for a quite a while. I liked that he admits “She’s pretty and that’s a fact.” At least he’s honest that his real action to Dong Baek is her looks. It’s nice that he does think Dong Baek is cool when she stands up for herslef and tells that guy off. “I think he is a weirdo.” Ha-ha. I one hunderd percent agree with Dong Baek ‘s thoughts. Clearly that’s his personality. He never grew out of it. It’s good that So Dong Baek gets judged because that lawyers husband is scum. Despite 6 years the woman still give her such a hard time and judge her. Her actions should speak for her. I like that Dong Baek quietly stands up for herself. I thought when her employee said she was a hippopotamus that she’d start raging or something. I like her quiet bravery. It’s reassuring that Yong Shik decided to help her by getting the money from her skivvy land lord. Basically the creep wants her to be a floozy, not a friend. Smile for me, let me touch you, give me free things despite the fact that you need money as a single mom. You’re property that’s the role of a woman. Sighs At least it’s not too in your face here. Subtle is good. Because anyone can see what that slime ball is doing. So Dong Baek is clearly being watched. By the Joker we assume from the information we’ve been told. A killer who quit for a while. Now flashback to the body. It is confirmed that Yong Shik is the police officer. But we don’t get to see the woman’s face. Yong Shik’s reaction could be relief. I think it is.

7.0/10 - A fun start!

Whoa. So a cop’s wife/woman/love interest is killed. “The woman with the geranium bracelet.” So we don’t know if this is past or present. Way to start up the mystery. Oh, and I want that bracelet! I really love anything and everything geraniums. I love them! Dong Baek vogue it girl. I just love how all the men and most of the woman are all enchanted by her. I’m entranced by her hair! Though I wonder way she can’t she just say she’s a widow to deal with those judging her? It’s not such a big deal in the States like it is in Korea, and most Asian countries. I do like that no matter how shy she is Dong Baek is honest and stands up for herself. And Yong Shik’s (I’ll talk about in the next paragraph) is more open minded. What’s the difference if she’s widowed or not? She’s a single mom like her! (FYI I love the actress playing his mom.) So Yong Shik. We first meet in the start of a flash back. It’s one heck of meeting! We start with him as a youth and he looks awkward and timid. He looks scared witless then BAM! he’s beating the crap out of the bank robber. He was probably thinking about everyone’s hard earned cash. Haha!! He kept catching the bad guys again and again! He got to many awards they just decided to make him a cop!!!!! Though he’s too rash. So he’s promoted to Seoul where he thinks he’ll find a Seoul woman, but ends up getting demoted back to his country life. I wonder if moving to the area was a calculated move by Dong Baek. Woman get to be in charge of these businesses and there men are just their employees. So of course they want to escape and eat somewhere else, and drink. I love how they talk about the women being in charge there and running the area. Not to mention that they never thought she’d succeed and she was successful for 6 years!!! Oh, my gosh! Dong Baek’s son is so cute and protective. Telling those guys not to disrespect her and talk to her casually. To call her CEO! He’s so bold, probably because he’s learned to stand up for himself and his mom. It’s not that he takes after his dad. Those lame idiots! I can’t wait to get to know him more. Huh, so they introduce is to another man. Okay, so the other guy is an athlete with a selfish wife. They’re a celebrity couple and I’m wondering if she really gave birth to their baby? Jong Ryul clearly is left to take care of the kid as they apparently don’t even live together. To end the episode there’s this hint of Dong Baek being watched as she takes her son home. Queue creepy music!
