comments on episode 7

[luvarchfiend]

i despise the magistrate's son. this guy is a first class jerk. that sneer, where he tries to do a chung kyun (the aow one impression and falls far short, is just so disgusting. but i find everything about him disgusting.

i love chun-su's father. that old man is so feisty and prickly. he reminds me of one of my grandmothers.

while i understand yi soon shin's father better, and have compassion for his life, it still bothers me that he is so against his sons doing anything with their lives. that book burning scene was heart-breaking to me on many different levels.

almost forgot.....it was great hearing 'merciful buddha' again. ;D and not from the angel of death.

and yi soon shin....well he is just very special. he fights for his friends, he works so hard so his brother can study, he has to study on the sly, he treats people with respect, he has principles that can only be compromised after threats to his brother, and this costs him in his heart and soul. he fights against injustice...

and d**n, the man runs everywhere.

i will admit that the show is progressing well. though i won't say that this episode was all that amazing, i will say that i do want to know what happens next.

well i susptect that you will find the show slow until soon shin begins his martial arts training

(you're going to love his master - looks like an old school kung fu dude)

Soon-shin is so good-hearted.
I liked when his brother told Chun-su something like (I don't remeber exactly how it was put) Soon-shin can fill up the empitness in one's heart.

I love Soon-Shin's father. That guy is great. He reminds me of that scholar from AOW, who would always get drunk in the royal library, and would then go and make a huge scene. That, or the father is like Choi In-Woo, who threw feces all over the officials, at CCH's banquet.

hm, he's a simple man true

but i cannot picture him throwing feces to make a point...

seems a little too stiff (unless drunk)
