^ She lost her eye because she had an accident with fireworks at some job that she had.

How can Saebyeok's friend Bokju, leave with all the money and even took her purse( the purse was actually Subin's)!! She knew that Saebyeok has no money and can't move into her new place with no $$! Thank God she had $$ to pay the movers!! What kind of friend does that! I know you have to help out your brother but I am sure if she told Saebyeok about it she would help!! I thought they were really close friends.. But I guess they are not..

I thought they were really close friends.. But I guess they are not.. I thought that was pretty low to take off without saying a word. She had no right to take all the money. I got the impression they were in the orphanage together and were very close.

I bet if Bokju should reappear on the scene, all will be forgiven just so with or without a sensible explanation. Drives me crazy to think that.

Thanks ilahvoodles,
She's plucky alright, but naive. How can she just shrug off her friend leaving and not think something's "fishy"? If they knew each other 20 years, I would think she'd at least go to the police and report her and the money missing in case of foul play.
And the police would be able to find Bokju by tracing her cell phone location wouldn't they?
I just think CG is leaving too many people hanging including herself by not looking for her "friend".

I don't think Bokju was an orphan with her. I think she needed the money to pay for her brother's assault charges. In Korea, you can make the charges go away if you pay off the victim. Usually that sum is at least in the thousands.
The rent system in korea is really different. You have to pay a ridiculous security deposit to secure an apartment. I think some of my co-workers at the part-time job had to give around $8,000-$10,000 security deposit to get the apartment. Of course the language schools front the money for the foreign teachers. What the landlords do is just put that in the bank and collect the interest. Not saying Saebyeok and Bokju's was that high, but pretty significant I'm sure.

I may be wrong but I think it was about $3000. which is probably the whole amount of the settlement for Bokju's brother. And I thought for sure I read CG and BJ were orphans together and that's way they were so close. At any rate, it looks like she'll be sleeping at the fomentation room for a while. BTW I thought she was funny when she kept nodding to Hosae during their blind date…

Tinkerbell, I wanted to say $10,000, but that sounded too high for Bokju to need "all" of it to help her brother out of his jam. Seems to me she would have had enough "change" to give back half their amount to CG. At least that's what a good friend coulda woulda shoulda done, right? Her brother must have really stepped in it to owe somebody that much…

I don't think Bokju was an orphan with her. I think Saebyok said once that Bokju was an orphan too and grew up together in an orphanage.

Your right zorro, what kind of friend would do that without even discussing it. All that money wasn't hers alone.

It never ceases to amaze me how often family members or "best friends" cheat or steal from their family or friends. I've seen that in many stories.
