A few observations (circa ep 18)

[Aging Warrior]

First, VIB, you totally rock! I was able to get up to date with your excellent writeups.

Second, Soon Shin is looking handsomer now that he's a potter. I don't know if it’s a tan or if he has just dropped the goofy expression he had in earlier episodes.

Third, Mijin is has a good attitude, works hard and can kick ass. She's way cuter than Yoen Hwa. Yoen Hwa just orders around her servant and messes with Won Kyun's head.

Finally, I'm happy for Chun-su, rising in the ranks, becoming a man of means. A guy like that could be emperor one day.

Yeah, she is really cute. Yoen Hwa wasn't bad though. However, she was a brat from birth.. Really, if I were to choose between the two, I would go with Mijin. Even with her bloodlust, she looks like she has a good heart, asdie from having a good body

Yeah, I think it's because of his beard coming in.
And yeah, Mijin is cool!

thanks aging warrior!

i still think yunhwa is prettier. as for her being bratty, i don't know, i never found her that way. she did save soon shin's life and i don't think she bosses around her servant. they have a pretty good rapport - seems more like friends than servants.

Well maybe I was a little hard on Yoen Hwa. The ways in which an aristocratic maiden can interact with men are constrained, but it means that she spent a lot of time thinking with Soon Shin but interacted very little. It was kind of frustrating.
