You cannot give us USTy coffee spilling scenes such as this in the preview:




And then not give it to us in the actual episode. That is just CRUEL, especially when she spends the whole episode obsessing over the other dude. Like, you couldn't just throw us this little bone? This little, tiny nougat of her maybe reciprocating his attraction to her? Of him actually making a tiny bit of progress with her? COME ON. I get that she probably won't end up with him, but you cannot make episode 10 all about their OTPness and then make the following two episodes completely forget about it so that she can be all moony-eyed over the other guy. Hmph.

No love,
Me

That being said, my heart did break for Hye In when she went through all that trouble to confess to Seung Hyun in such an adorably grand fashion, but... well... Eui Jin is the one in his heart. But I still can't tell if the show is saying that they are the OTP or not. Because Eui Jin is going to die, that's pretty clear, and in the preview for next week it showed Eui Jin looking at her sympathetically (like she would be the one to bring them together), so I still feel like Doo Hyun has no chance with Hye In. Especially after they left out that USTy scene. Which SUCKS, because they are clearly where the chemistry is at, and Doo Hyun/Hye In is the more subtle, bumbling, social ineptitudeness romance that I adore so completely. And Seung Hyun/Eui Jin is so damn beautiful that I can't not ship them. OMG, the scene in the field where Eui Jin is playing her violin and he approaches her. Gaaaaaaah, so beautiful.



But yeah, my heart belongs to Doo Hyun/Hye In, and I've watched ep 10 about five times already. I adore how he just can't say the words, and explains to her in such a professional fashion that he wants her to be into him (something about him wanting her brain to excrete dopamine and serotonin whenever she sees him). I mean, I can see why Hye In hasn't been clued in yet to Doo Hyun liking her, because he shouts at her for things that really have nothing to do with what she thinks he's talking about and he's just super awkward at trying to inquire about her on a personal level and his temper is very short and he makes up excuses for why he asks her certain questions and he didn't thank her for saving him and he's pretty much a jerk and he makes her life miserable. So... yeah, Doo Hyun has a lot to explain to her. But even though he does all that, he is somehow this really lovable, sympathetic character. I don't even understand how. I guess because we saw that he wasn't loved as a child, so he puts up his shields and tries to tell the world that all he needs is himself, but he's got those puppy dog eyes and he wants to be loved so badly and he has so much love to give but he just doesn't know how to let those things happen. It's very foreign to him and he is screwing up at every turn. But OMG, if only Hye In would notice him, he'd lay down his shield and let her in, but at this point he is still way too insecure. And ep 10 made me think that Hye In would totally consider him if she knew he liked her. In fact, she looked pretty darn disappointed when she thought she found out that he didn't like her.

Oh, this show. It's killing me. I love it so thoroughly that it's all I want to watch. I just can't seem to get into any other drama (I've dropped Faith and Arang, they both started feeling like a chore to watch, probably because all I could think about was Third Ward). I just don't understand how it's the not-so-great dramas that always manage to capture my heart. The acting isn't anything to shout about, the soundtrack isn't especially great, there's not much of a plot, and I can't freaking figure out how the love stories are going to go. But OMG does it get me right in the heart. It makes me laugh, it makes me cry, it makes me swoon. I love these characters and I want them all to be happy and I really don't want to part with them (unfortunately, half of them are dying of brain tumors or getting run over by buses).
