Tan finds her stuffing her face guiltily, and she swears she only ate stuff that was past its expiration date, and slides over a five-dollar bill to pay for her meal. She sneaks out to the kitchen, only to find canned food and sports drinks in the fridge (Who keeps cans in the fridge?) and eats straight out of cans in the dark.

Hunger pangs soon overtake her angst though, and she realizes she hasn’t eaten all day. She finally gets to sit down and process the crazy that happened today, and sighs to relive her sister’s betrayal. I love that she grabs her backpack like a shield, but he leans in close just to point out that the door she’s leaning on leads to her room. He agrees just to mess with her, inching towards her with every word. That freaks her out more than anything, and she starts speaking in half-jondae: “W-what are you? Are you a drug dealer? A gangster, perhaps?” Ha. He plops down on the couch and she looks around for his family, but he says he lives alone. She decides to chance it, and her jaw drops as soon as they enter his ginormous house. She asks, “Is your place really safer than here?” He thinks about it and says he doesn’t know if it’s safer for her, but it IS nicer. They stare at each other intently, and then he offers to take her to his place.

Young Joon (Brown Eyed Soul) – “Driving Road” Īudio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. The tone of the show is far more contemplative and less rom-com-y than Secret Garden or A Gentleman’s Dignity, but I actually like that it feels a bit more like a throwback angsty teen flick than a comedy. The couple takes center stage in this episode, and they have an easy rapport and a breezy chemistry that works for me. It doesn’t make for a fast-moving hour, but in general I like the world and the people, that is to say, I like looking in on the screwed up world, and I like the mystery behind their intricate relationships. The romance gets going lightning fast on this show, though the show itself is still rather slow to get started-it still feels like we’re in the introductory phase where everyone takes a turn in the spotlight to show us who they are. 764 OctoJanuHeirs: Episode 2 by girlfriday
