And to be honest the twist was so freaking stupid. I'd thought about them doing that, but it just felt so cheap.
Overall things are about average for the show, but now I'm wondering how things will wrap up smoothly. Especially now that they brought a certain Prosecutor back, one felt really out of place when introduced. Sigh. This isn't going to be a strong ending. Or who knows, maybe things will take a turn.

Overall this show is wrapping up nicely. The events of both Dae Gu's "Dad" and brother finding out that he might be blood related is moving. All of the actors are doing a wonderful job here, even if at times it felt choppy and things are happening just to tie things up for the ending!
The best thing about this episode is that Dae Gu and Soo Sun finally have some tangible chemistry. The stair scene was so cute! Holy cow! It made waiting worth it.
Overall it's been fun. And I'm very excited for the wrap up!

Either way I'm just watching at this point to wrap up this series. I hate it when you can call all the shots from the first episode. Oh, well. You're All Surrounded had some funny moments.

The big reveal is here, who killed the nurse. After the first episode's flashback I called it, and as I keep saying I was right! Which sucks, because the show has been pretty basic since. Chief Kang's involvement seems so out there, and for how they were trying to paint her character I felt like it doesn't fit. But hey wishy-washy people like that trying to justify their means happen, even letting them shelf there morals in the name of their higher "goals".
In the end I actually just want this drama to be over. It's clear that for me, this was an over hyped and talked up drama. The OST been good. Lets see how this plays out. And I'm really nervous if one of the characters may die in a tragic twist to make the whole Mason School Nurse murder even more tragic.

The robot is . . . annoying. It just seems too much on top of everything. Vampire viruses, hospital drama and politics, search for a cure, secret vampire villains (supremacists if I guessed right), and such. A robot just seems like to much. It's fun now, there's a point were things can tip very easily. Like the vampire gang that comes to town. The lightning and bad boy music was indeed queued. Oh, the laughter.
Speaking of laughter I'm surprised by how much I like the humor in Blood. Ji Sang is one of those "ice" characters. (Literarily judging from the mystery bed. ^_-) So it's a treat that from the get go he has his own brand of humor, and awkwardness.
There's some answer about the vampire mythology here, the virus. But there's many mysterious present. The bed Ji Sang sleeps on, his pills, the strange liquid Jae Wook was drinking, and what kind of powers vampires really have.
Jae Wook lured Ji Sang to the hospital with the grave from the first episode. Yet by the end of this episode he's had a person at the hospital (who is it?) swap his pills. So that as he goes into surgery the blood wigs him out. What more is Jae Wook looking for if he knows who Ji Sang is? And who would have thought of growing vampire claws under surgical gloves? (What a way to end an episode.
Right now I'm having tons of fun with this series and will be continuing. Especially as the mysteries pile up!

Cinderella's Sister Episode 16
0 people found this review helpful
Despite it's serious nature it does have some over the top drama traits. As in over doing it. Most of the 20 episode is filler. Overly the top painful fillers. A tender moment soon becomes excruciating. Moments that were supposed to be filled with romantic tension . . . flop out and become painful.
In my attempt to finish this episode and move on with the series was the final straw. Man did I really try. Rewatched it again and again, and didn't pick up anything new. The fact is this is based on the Cinderella story. Any true big plots aren't exploited well enough in this snail paced series. When dealing with any form of retelling or twisted story the best thing is to have a constantly moving and developing story.
In the end Cinderella's Sister started out strong, but quickly developed into one of the most slow and drug out dramas I have ever had the displeasure of viewing.

A MV put this drama on my radar. The cutest MV with a fabulous song for the OST. SunBee's You and I Together! https://youtu.be/vyenEhpliDI?list=PLLd1I6m6vMxD3Qs5n9qUltH4EPe29JMkw
When I stumbled a crossed it the song ensnared me and immediately made me in love with this drama. However, it has been so painful to watch! And I've decided that no amount of filler is worth waiting for the good parts. That's what the MV is for and I have the song.
Because every family drama cliché is present, and I can't stand the "rich and good looking family" at all. They're rude and nothing truly redeems them. Sure the mom fell in love with a guy that it "beneath" her. But other than that she's not that great of a person.
Most of the humor is some kind of bullying and I did not laugh. Especially with rooster crowing noises as a laugh track. I. Kid. You. Not. I would have preferred a laugh track!!
I'm a picky viewer, and this is a long series. Sure they might be half hour bits. Bad humor, rooster laugh tracks, horrible characters, a week "lead" who won't stand up for herself, and a distant promise that I'll see the magic from that MV is not enough to keep me. Good bye.

Even the character interactions were just so-so for this episode.
I don't mind seeing Soo Sun cry over what's happened to her mother. But at some point I'd like to see that fire I know she has and kick booty. At this point by the time the "big conspiracy" involving the Nurse Murder comes out it's going to cause the show to end on a whimper. Just like this episode trying to make enough noise with it's jokes about "only bad dramas do the things we've been doing". Maybe the writers are aware they dropped the ball. Or they're naïve enough to think that the show is great and these kind of jokes are showing all of us neigh Sayers something? Either way the writers were write, "Only in bad dramas."

Sadly the plot is failing and I'm pretty sure sticking around for the actors and the fun they create when the script allows them.
It's official the overall Mason Nurse Murder is . . . pretty darn stupid. Everything about it and it's part in this show has brought it down. From taking away its comedic aspects, to making Dae Gu and unbearable character. Because despite the apparent solving of the case, the bad guys are too stupid to leave things well enough alone. Why on earth would they need to do anything when the statue of limitations is almost up. Let alone pile on another murder? There's no proof anywhere except for the FRESH trail they're leaving.
It would have behooved this show so much if the writers would have developed the characters and made interesting cases. Another show that didn't survive over ambition from writers without scope. Don't get me wrong I had fun, and I'm still having fun. Heck, I'm finishing this bad boy! It's just a shame that this episode made it clear that the writing will not improve and pull out those "twists" I had thought would be coming up. And this great cast of actors will be nothing more then a gimmick to bring fans in.

What's more is that the case solving is getting interesting, while not bogging the show down or making it feel like it has to divide the attention of viewers one way at a time. Multitasking is a good thing. Especially since Soo Sun is truly starting to shine as a detective!
Honestly the development of all the characters is amazing at this point and I love how certain characters are now lovable to me and I want to see them succeed. This is the case for Sa Kyeong, who's really come a long way. Dae Gu . . . still not liking the character. It hurts when I love Lee so much! Oh, and I love the bromance between Tae Il and Ji Kook!
Pan Seok really gets some character development here. It's turned into such a tragic tale for him. Pan Seok is definitely becoming a character I love, especially as all of his trails come out. It also makes Dae Gu look bad, but that's OK. I'm sure all will be revealed in a dramatic way. Though I love how the writers have given enough of a twist to Pan Seok and his connection the scared man to wonder how much Pan Seok truly knows what is going on . . .
Overall You're All Surrounded is finally hitting it's stride. Telling all the stories present in a way that doesn't just feel like each one is "taking a turn". As I said the storyline is finally multi tasking. The humor and mystery are blending well together to give this serious a serious side, while still making me laugh and get the warm and fuzzies. Plus, not all the characters are dark and mysterious anymore. They've graduated out into non-stereotypes. (Well as much as they can. They've got personalities!)

Pan Seok or Soo Sun, "Oh, you're really Ji Yong!"
Dae Gu, "Soo Sun, I'm not I'll kiss you into forgetting again." or Pan Seok, "I am really not this Ji Yong!"
Pan Seok or Soo Sun, kind of believe him and drop it until the next episode cliffhanger.
Thankfully every aspect of the drama is stepping it up! Tae Il's secret was a let down, especially given how Ji Kook was acting. Other than that it was perfect! Especially now that I've come to know Pan Seok . . . and I can honestly say that I heart him so much! His romance to win back his wife is so sweet, but I actually wouldn't mind it if he swept Soo Sun off her feet. Don't get me wrong Dae Gu and Soo Sun as a couple have grown on me, I just don't feel the magic. (Yet.)
The cases are pretty cool, but they're giving way for more development with what is going on with Dae Gu's mother case and the past. It's very interesting seeing who is tied to whom. I love a tangled web, especially if the drama builds it just right.
Overall despite a rocky second episode and a some step back,s again and again, You're All Surrounding is shaping up! With this episode being the strongest entry, even with some standard drama clichés.

Pan Seok is not the mature leader I thought he was. No he tries to be and he does serious pretty well. But despite all his mistakes and hardships the guy is pretty darn playful. That sounds weird. But he's warm, funny, and clumsy. (Though I feel like the clumsy aspect isn't what the writers/director may have been going for.) When ever Pan Seok holds back his laughter or a smile it's pretty funny. It's a shame that he holds back that aspect of himself when he's so ready to embrace his anger. It's probably going to be a sticking point later on.
That said Pan Seok's team is moving on to a new case involving the death of a father. A father who may have been killed by one of his own sons! Add on top of that the joy, and cuteness of Pan Seok, trying to rekindle his romance with Sa Kyeong. It's nice to see her in a different mood. There's drama between Tae Il and Ji Kook after Tae Il tells his secret. Of course viewers are privy to it, but it's the giant "oh, now he didn't" in the room. There's plenty of love squaring here, it's clear who everyone wants to end up with. And who will sadly only achieve a bromance, but it's still fun.
The case of Dae Gu's mother's death is still going in in the back drop. It's killing me trying to figure out how the behind-the-ear scar man is friendly with Pan Seok! What is going on? That's a lovely mystery that I can't quite get my mind around. Maybe the scarred guy isn't the enemy? But an ally?
And finally someone knows about Dae Gu's true identity. Don't think Dae Gu can kiss his way out of it this time!

In the end there isn't much to say about this episode. The typical stuff is happening as the group tries to keep tabs on a criminal they need to find proof to put away. There are some solid plot building points--a few--but overall it did nothing to help this episode. Especially since I feel more and more strongly that Pan Seok is a bit of a joke. Gosh I hope those subway stations are actually that slippery.

While it's cool that one of the good guys knows who Dae Gu really is, because the bad guys already have one up on him. I didn't like the reveal. Nor the way the first kiss of the series was pulled of. I had no feels for it.
This entry was a lot of eye rolling and to be honest it ended up taking away from many victories. Because now Pan Seok and Dae Gu are both guys I'm not really interested in. Pan Seok might just pop his temper when ever! Instead of being the teacher, he became the fool. Dae Gu . . . still don't care for him. There's a few moments when I think Lee is adding some personality to the role, and it's quickly squashed.
At this point I'm still really on the fence with this series. Though I have to say the ending reaction from Pan Seok is one of the best reactions ever!

Things have finally clicked together for You're All Surrounded. (Kudos for the detectives all saluting it while the drank and had a ball.) Pan Seok really is a tortured soul, and I love that while there's still quite the mystery involving him and the death of a certain mother the show develops him a lot in this one episode. Especially giving viewers a peek into Pan Seok and Sa Kyeong tragic love. So now there are two romances playing out here! Giving viewers a chance to lie one or the other. Or if you're lucky both.
Dae Gu is still a very unlikable character. They're already trying to make him "fall for the girl" but he's just so . . . blank it's not working. Nor believable. Every once in a while I can see a tiny-tiny-tincey-wincey bit of Lee charm pull through. But it's too small. Considering Lee is pretty awesome with humor, and he can do serious roles, I keep wondering why the writers and directors don't utilize him more. The writers could give him more anything! The director could let him act like something other then a blank wall the majority of the time. (Yeah, it's bother me a lot.)
You know who I'm digging the other two rookie guys. But most importantly Soo Sun. While she hasn't had any true time to be a bad booty, she's growing on me. Her narrations in this episode really enhanced the show and Soo Sun. And I'm kind of hoping this is a permanent thing. Also, I hope she gets to be a strong female lead. K-drams always need more strong females.
Things are definitely looking up for You're All Surrounded. Hopefully it stays that way! Though I have to say how tragic this current case is they're working own. Especially with how it ties in to Pan Seok. Cases involving children are always haunting. And it must be said that despite some of the dark themes and cases in the show the series still does a great job being fun. (Well when it's finally done being boring. ^_-)
