I just can't imagine these two (Ji-hae and Jaemin) staying away from their parents for more than a week. When they see that they actually have to do stuff for themselves I don't they'll last too long w/their resolution.

I actually can't guess about this. It's because I don't understand their reasoning and how it's all supposed to work, according to them. I mean, don't they understand that if they just disappear their parents will go crazy looking for them? Why didn't they ever try standing up for themselves or try to make their point first before running away? "Their point" being, "we are married now and though it was stupid of us to run back home to Mother/Father, we are going to live together, ALONE, from now on." So I'm wondering what they are trying to accomplish.
I suppose I'm overthinking this and should just laugh at their antics.

I get what they're thinking... they want to show their parents they can live on their own without any help but I don't agree with the action. This seems more like something a teenager would do. If they wanted to show they're a mature married couple, why not stand up to their parents?

OK--but how long can it take to clean that itty bitty apartment? I have to laugh every time I see them scrubing away. It also cracks me up that they call this "running away" and everyone is so appalled (I know, I know..cultural filial piety.) they are married for heavens sake!

I wonder how long till the conception dream Ji-hae had materializes into part of the plot. I can't imagine Ji-hae being able to take care of a baby.
Oh no! And then if they go back, JM's mom will practically consider the baby hers.

I'm still having a hard time understanding how a medium-sized (certainly not marriage-threatening) fight between the young couple ended up this way. They go home to their parents, and somehow it ends up that they're not allowed to make up and go home with each other? I just have a hard time with this--I mean, they had their own apartment and everyone was pretty much accepting it (even though the mom and dad kept letting themselves in and snooping around). So now they can't just live like a normal married couple again? Kids in Korean dramas are just so accepting of every weird/unfair thing their parents do and say, and they don't even try to reason with them.

Why was it that so many people had keys? It seems that there's only one key to Min-sup and co.'s house, else why would there always have to be someone at home?
I'd just change the locks one day and always leave out the back entrance at work.

I figured they would do something with the story about Jae-min flirting with the customers, but I sure wasn't expecting something this extreme!

I wasn't either; this was shocking!
The car didn't look like it was going that fast, though. I hope that he's okay.

Oh, Hachuie, you made me laugh. You're the only one who cares if poor Jae-min is okay! This illustrates your sweet and caring personality. ;D
This did seem like an extreme outcome to the flirting thing. I had Betty's same thoughts about the store (although I must admit the word "jacked" did not enter my mind LOL). The accident was pretty frightening and well-played, except...why did she stand there screaming, oh no, oh no, for the longest time (seemed like half a minute) before running up to him? It just seemed unnatural.

It just seemed unnatural. Bo I know, she covered her eyes and just stood there, instead of running to him! And where was he running to? To catch that sale she lost? Or to go and get her flowers?

You're so funny. :-) I also thought he was running to do something nice for her, like getting flowers. Because it's just ridiculous that he would be running away from her. He took off in such a hurry, though, that it's really strange, if you think about it.
I actually felt that her covering her eyes was a good touch. It was like she instinctively thought that if she couldn't see it, it didn't happen. Then she took her hands down after realizing it was real. Poor Jae-min! Such a good kid. I really hope his injuries aren't serious. You know how sometimes the cliffhangers turn out to be not a big deal after all. . . .

Whew! I can't believe that when they got back to the store, he went to get water for her! Way too nice if you ask me.
And, nice of their neighbors not to steal all of their merchandise while they were gone.

But what was the point of the accident? After he had it, he was not injured, the store was not robbed, and she still was scolding him for flirting with customers, to no effect!
I just don't get it.
