He is so popular and good looking. And you only hear nice things about him whenever you ask someone. So when he asks you out, you are all for it. Because of the hype you do not even mind that the start out of the date is kind of mediocre. And that he has moments were he is really really dumb. But somehow the date becomes a rollercosterride. One moment he is incredible charming and fun and seriously cute and suddenly he turns and you have to ask him three times about his hobbies because he doesn't understand what you mean. Additionally he talks a little to long about his past relationships. But the end of date is again really nice and while you know that you probably never meet again you sometimes look at some pictures you took and are happy that you went out with him. Even if his looks made this date more fun than it would have been without Boys Before Flowers – Is the guy that every girl fawns over. He is so popular and good looking.

You have liked this guy for a really long time and wanted to go out with him. You finally manage to get a date with him. You are really excited about the date. But then it turns out to be really really boring. But since you have waited for so long you hold it in and decide to stick it out. Then he shows you his vunerable side and there is a lot of emotions swirling. Then you realize that he agreed to the date because he wants to get some kind of revenge about something that you did and forgot or something like that. But he has fallen for you during the course of the date. So he is confused whether to stick with the revenge plan or just get a honest start with you. While you are confused about what the hell did you do that required him to be revengeful. So things get dark and melodramatic and angsty and too much and yet you stick it out because he deserved a happy ending coz he is so pitiful and you want a happy ending coz you put so much effort into it already. Then Just as things seem like it might turn out to be better and you might finish the date with a smile and a next date, he drops dead. Leaving you sad, confused, tired and just blank.

I hope he'll do another project to redeem himself! I was so looking forward to this until when i saw the first few episodes & dropped my date with him! I still love him though & he's one of my best K-actors on my list! Yes out of the topic but I liked Shin Dong Wook as well!

As being what I believe is translated as an Ajumma, I have an oldie to offer: Ms. Kim's Million Dollar Quest. Although I could never accomplish your insight with words, I began that "date" thinking the hook was Ji Jin-Hee, only to be constantly taken by the comedic timing of Seong Ji-Ru. The belly laughs I experienced (and the tears I shed) in his scenes were the only reason I finished watching it. Loved your date analysis.
