You are right to say that external beauty is not important. I'm a little too shallow to say that. It's just that it's not enough.

Yes, I would rather say I agree with you to think that "human relationships are more important".

I ask myself if american spectators prefer a natural female face to a thick mask covered with cosmetics. Many frenchmen (and frenchwomen) would think Mijin is prettier than Yun-Wha. The use of excessif cosmetics is generally despised in France. Too much cosmetics on Yun-Wha's face ! On the other hand, I understand why Koreans don't like Mijin. Her anachronic modern accent torture me. Ah people here in the states (the older members of the board) like Mijin because she probably remind them of Soran from Age of Warriors, one of Kyung Dae Seung’s people who was a female warrior also and lone survivor of KDS’ Dobang Army or Olan (?) female bodygaurd of Muby’s son.

By, the way, whats with the use of the phrase "Japs". It’s probably Kristy Kim (the translator to these shows) who shortened the word for convenience sake because she’s translating this show as they air. She has to type fast. She probably doesn’t mean it as a racial offense. I know I wouldn't use the word if I was the translator. But I never have been a translator before so I don't know. In real life Mijin and that other chap who’s an expert potter (if they had existed) would probably be sold as slaves in the Japanese market to other Japanese Daimyos or Portuguese and Dutch merchants like this guy: english.chosun.com/w21data/html/news/200401/200401290016.htmlProbably Mijin will be Wakizaka Sama’s personal slave girl/playthying or geisha. ;D

A female bodyguard ? Really interesting !

The episodes (22 & 23) made me , but I did not cry. I hope episode 24 tells us how did Mijin escaped from Japan for 5 years.

florel, you can watch the VOD of Age of Warriors here since you sound like you have access to VODs: www.kbs.co.kr/drama/mooin/vod/vod.htmlIt’s a pretty good series with lots of action and massive battles and some romance for female members of the board. ;D
