Bored, I mean moved to tears

[galacticchick]

Are we that bored w/the HK and HR relationship that after their reunion nobody felt motivated enough to write anything about it? Can't say I blame you.

Well, lets see. I missed the first few minutes of it (darn the CTA!) and caught the part where they are in the pier. I guess I kind of felt confused by whether HR is pretending to be sick of him, or whether he knows that they both have feelings for each other but is still going to keep his promise to his father.

Also, I bet if Keumja where just a little bit less honorable she would have slapped Tae-ho upside the head. But if looks could kill...she just gave him this face of disgust when he came into the restaurant.

Bored with the two of them already, seeing Korea is already up to eps 165 and still going with no end of this drama in sight, I could use some of the other sub-plots to make it more interesting.

Well, since my local Korean station is like 3/4 episodes behind Chicago, I haven't seen it yet! ;D So, no emotional response has been elicited from this particular viewer. However, since this emotional malaise/melodrama has dragged on for a while, I'm not surprised that the actors/characters themselves have shown a certain level of blah (yes, blah) in portraying their peculiar relationship.

Yes, galactic, I am so bored by them that I now fast-forward not only through the interminable gazing and longing scenes but also through much of their dialogue. I don't even know what the writers want us to think. This happens all the time in this drama: someone gives an impassioned speech about what they believe, even though other people disagree with them, then later that person seems to have forgotten all about his stated principles. So when Hye-ran yells all that stuff to Hyun-gyu about who does he think he is, and love doesn't conquer all, and he's being a bad son to his dead mother, I want to believe that she is having a change of heart, but history gives me no confidence that anyone on this soap actually says what they mean. They only say things to move the plot along, and then they later betray their own characters. Phooey, says I!
