Grayson, I did a bit of social work too for awhile in the US and Ireland. Things there are not that much different from what you describe. The clients are mostly White families but the situations are similar. So I would not say that this kind of behaviour is more Asian than Western. Nor is it gender either as some of the victims are men [you don't have to be physically stronger to be the abuser], just as young people can abuse the old too.

Hi there- just joined - watching the drama over here and frustrated at the pace....so I must say a biiiiiiiiiig thank you to Sheila for those lovely updates..your comments are hilarious! Spoilers do not take anything away from the experience of watching the show- episodes can get rather draggy and knowing what's coming make the wait all worthwhile!

I hesitated about reading updates at first, but have gotten addicted to them now Sheila really gives an excellent and detailed account, and I enjoy the other comments too!

In New York, we are up to episode 98. Has anyone noticed how short episodes 96 & 97 were? You know, when you're an addict like me, a couple of minutes off from the normal time is just unsatisfactory!!!

I did notice, door60 and didn't like it one bit.
I also don't like it when there are no trailers at the end. Sometimes this show moves like an old dog in the rain and the trailers hit upcoming high spots to keep me watching.
(Not that I'd ever stop!)

I too am so addicted to K-drama but this one especially! I find that I must check this message board several times a day, especially the other spoiler thread called " the turning point may have just budded". Can someone tell me though what the symbols and stars next to people's Id's are and what "Junior addict", "Senior addict", etc. means? Thanks in advance!

I haven't gotten it down that well northwest, but the stars go up when you reach certain post counts. I think it's every 50 or perhaps 100 lol and the post count in turn tells your status of a beginner/junior and it goes up.
Door60, I've been noticing too that Mon and Tues eps start earlier, like at 9:20 and I'll be watching basketball and totally miss a good 5 minutes or so lol.
Puppy, we're left hanging lol, like tonight I was so looking to get a glimpse for tomorrow and nothing.

Here too. Sometimes the show will start at 9:18 and sometimes it will start at 9:22. So usually around 9:15 I will switch to that station so I don't miss anything, even if it means watching news or commercials in Korean. But I'll tell you one thing...the song for that KiKi Jewelers commercial is so etched in my head!

kumbis16, you are so right! I too get impatient and then I am thrilled to see that Sheila has posted one of her updates! Okay now, who wants to sing the KiKi Jewelers song with me? All together now...
