Wow! The drama and the recaps are fabulous. Thank you!!!

Javabeans, you did not mention that short moment in this episode after KA runs after Shin in her wedding dress, but can not see him in the hallway. She does however exchange looks with K…I kinda get the feeling that K is in love with Do-Woo, kinda like that aide to the senator in Kevin Costner’s “No Way Out” movie.

Now, I’m off to watch Episode 16.

Wanted to express my thanks to the WITH S2 group!! There’s no way I could enjoy this drama without your excellent subbing!!!

oh and also dramabeans, I personally feel pity for kyung-ah instead of anger or annoyance, because she is really a weak person inside, trying to fend for herself. In the end, she realized that everything she had so desperately wanted has a very high price.

All these times her character has “annoyed” you dramabeans were not her true character if you know what I mean, instead, they were a response to a series of misunderstanding.

No offense, but your anger towards kyung-ah is definitely from the viewer’s point of view, but that’s not enough since kyung-ah knows less than us. we, the viewers, must look at the story from each characer’s point of view, THEN use our emotions to judge them.

ohhh the beauty of dramatic irony.

this series – no, i mean masterpiece – is driving me crazy. I love it.

All the other smart ass dramas/movies I’ve ever seen is a joke compared to this consistent, well-thought-out drama.

@asianromance: i’m with you there, i’d feel sorry for do woo too, but then he is a little psychotic too, so let’s wait and see how it turns out.

As usual, your recaps are so good and detailed. I don’t know why, but I always share the same feelings as you concerning the characters and the plot( I felt the same for your bbf recaps), you really have a talent for drama analysis^^
Like you, I appreciate the way Shin slowly make Do Woo’s world crumble bit by bit. I particularly like the interaction between the lawyer and det. Kim, both of them are hilarious together. Don’t like Kyung Ah much either, but I can feel she will come back to Shin later, this episode makes it kind of obvious, when she realizes how Do Woo is really evil. I’m more curious about the relationship between Do Woo and and Eun Soo… In episode 13 I think, Shin visits his former psychiatrist, who says he is a psychopath, unable of feeling any emotion. If that’s so, how do you qualify what Do Woo obviously feels for his sister? Is it possesiveness? Does he sees in his sister the figure of his deceased mother? Is she the only feminine figure he can accept (a non-threatening one)? Sorry at my lame attempt at a psychological analysis, but I think those two are the highlight of the series. It’s much more complex than the usual brother/sister complex I’ve seen in other dramas, and both actors portrayed it so skillfully… Do Woo in himself is an interesting character enough to make me hooked to this story, but their relationship had really grasped my interest. But frankly speaking, I love ALL the characters , all of them arose my curiosity, I even like K, and that’s saying something^^

@Nom Kitteh

I’m not sure I agree. To me it doesn’t seem that DW sees ES as a second mother. The way he looks at her sometimes, especially that look during the wedding ceremony, has some sexual vibe to it in my opinion.

I do agree that so far we’ve seen him as an asexual being and I actually have trouble imagining him having sex with KA. But I feel that it’s more a question of him not being able to feel desire for anyone other than his sister. And he’s extremely careful not to show that to her.

i’m a bit torn here. If Kyung-ah helps Shin, I’d feel like she was a meanie to betray Do-woo when he’s so emotionally vulnerable. But if she doesn’t help Shin, then I’d think she’s useless…

Do Woo’s loosing control is what i want to see the most, but KBSw only aired up to ep 6, if i’m not mistaken, how long do i have to wait…
regarding love interest, i really can’t see Shin with Eun Soo, coz he’s too much in love with Kyungah, and i prefer Shin, DW, and KA didn’t end up with anybody at all, and Kyungtae can end up with Eunsoo…
thanks for the recaps JB
