Sorry for the delay; had some plumbing problems to deal with and it ate up all of my free time for a while.
The storyline is running on fumes at this point. Hard to see six more episodes of this. Time to wrap it up. This was a very slow episode with not much happening. And we're back to lots of staring. Reverting to bad old habits, the series is.
"He killed the master and hundreds of our security officers. And I suspect he killed Ha-jin. Can you forgive him?" Once again, thank you Yon for stating what everybody watching must be thinking. He's a mass murderer. What's he doing hanging around the storyline still? It's ridiculous.
The best moment was Madam Jami meeting with YJ. Will he or won't he take the dagger? That was a good scene.
Geez, poor JB, the wifey gets pregnant, the last person you'd expect to hear it from is Master Jo!
"I've been neglecting you." Um, sure doesn't sound like it, dude.
And now there's Jung-hwa staring off into space about what might have been, except for her own psychological flaws. It's pathetic and I'm tired of it.
I do like that Soon-jong is still disappointed she didn't end up with JB. Something touching about that kind of loyalty.
Does Madam Jami really think that anybody in Chunghae would respect or even remotely accept YJ as the governor? Come on already. Or was she just trying to get YM to believe it to manipulate him. Hmmm....
It did get interesting in the end. Time and again it seems like JB is being foolishly idealistic by giving YJ a break. But it sure looked like it stopped JB from killing him in that final scene, didn't it. That much, at least, is something hopeful for the remaining episodes--that we're getting the more interesting, complicated YM/YJ back.
So now Chunghae's trade with China is imperiled? Hard to feel sorry for JB; this is why you have to play some politics whether you like it or not. Alienating Kim Myung earlier, it was foolish.
p.s. "They say a man's sword dulls when he is warm and well-fed." Joong-dal said that? Are you kidding me? Something that insightful? Well, there's the old saying about the infinite number of monkeys and the infinite number of typewriters....
