-ssi (what you hear as "shay") is just a particle you add when you're addressing or referring to someone by name.

Thanks, Lucy. Thank you too, Soju. Interesting thread, I checked it out.
The intracacies of Korean language and culture never cease to amaze me. I wonder how formalized contemporary interaction is among young Koreans. I sense from the dramas that it is important to them because it is important to their elders but sometimes they let it slide.

why didn't danpung give that ring back when she first told him that she didn't want to get engaged? maybe it would have helped with dr.jang taking her serious. ok maybe he is crazy, but i still would have given the ring back sooner than she did.

I wondered why she didn't give it back sooner too. Maybe she was afraid of his reaction but it would have been better not to take it in the first place. Personally I didn't like it, it looked gawdy to me. On another subject, I wish Mrs. Na would quit saying "all women get nervous or scared before a wedding". Not true!!! Some men maybe, but most women are excited and consider it the happiest time of their lives. So that's Mrs. Na's excuse for pushing Danpung to marry the Doc? Oh wait, I forgot, she thinks Danpung can't find a better man ...he's rich, good looking and comes from a good family. Then there's the Doc who doesn't know NO means No!!! He shows up with "the engagement dress" anyhow!!! Three cheers for Danpung for blowing her stack in front of her family AND giving the ring back. Do you think Dr. Lips will give up now? Or will he get engaged by himself?

tinkerbell, i totally agree with everything you said! that ring was weird looking! i hope dr. lips give up and we don't have to go through a story line about him being a stalker! i think that would throw the story off. he's suppose to be smart, why can't he catch a clue? maybe it this whole male loosing to another male thing.

I am SO glad that you acknowledged how weird that ring was. It was downright ugly. It didn't even remotely sparkle or shine.... much like the good doctor himself The box was cool though.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one. I've wanted to comment on that ring from the moment I saw it. Yes, only the box was pretty. I like your analogy to the doc Kathleen, so unimpressive.

Maybe she should have just pinned the box to her coat to keep him happy while she made up her mind. LOL.

Did he give her those, junju0? I know the little doll on the rear view mirror was a gift from Baekho but I didn't know she got stuffed toys from the doc too.
And what the deal with that car zoo anyway? Is Danpung twelve? Sua's red car is lean and mean and she's supposed to be the immature one.

I don't remember where she got the other stuffed toys either puppy, except the "peasant doll" from Baekho. The doc doesn't seem the fuzzy animal type.

Her tone of voice and/or yelling is bothering me too, whether she's the boss or not. It' degrading. He's not a dog she's trying to train.

Same here. At first I thought she was being cute because she didn't know what to do with her feelings but now it's just annoying how she's always disrespecting him. Degrading is the exact word. How come she wasn't acting like that with the Doc? She better be glad it's Baekho that she is yelling at and not the Doc??? He would have strangled her right then and there. I think in some way she already knew that and was avoiding getting him upset.

way back when she first got her car, dr. jang took it and tricked it out with all those toys. yes, the doll off the mirror was from Baekho. remember when her old car keep breaking down and she asked her dad for a new one. and her mom wanted to get a big car and the parents had a huge fight. mrs. na had money hidden away so she thought she could buy the car with that. it was around that time. i know he doesn't seem like the fuzzy animal type, but he was trying hard to impress her back then. she sort of acted like she could take it or leave it. anyway, i just think that all that other stuff makes her seem like a little girl, when in fact she is very mature & responsible person.
