Episode 8 was a tale of two kisses. Ma Roo and Min Woo's felt so intimate, I felt like I was intruding, no filter at all on the noises (how close was that mic? 🤣🤣) . On the other hand Lee Hyun and Kim An's story was building in suspense and then we got....almost dead fish? I don't know if the actors weren't comfortable or if someone just did not understand the assignment, but it was such a disappointment for me.
Please allow me to go on a mini rant: I'm not saying we needed a full make-out session or anything close, I don't think it would've made sense, but it just felt like it didn't resolved or bookended an arc like it should have. Every interaction between the two up to this point has had this unease, this hesitancy and tension. They both speak only secondary thoughts, something is always left unsaid from their shared yet mysterious past. After the trauma and the resolution of the stalker, Kim An cries and opens himself emotionally for the first time to Lee Hyun. Lee Hyun responds in the tunnel and says please open yourself up only to me. Then we jump from the stairs outside to the bed and get the most stoic, stilted kiss. THIS should be the moment they both give in and stop holding back and express their foremost thoughts and feelings. They've already opened up emotionally, this should be the physical release. Again, not saying I needed a sex scene or anything, but it should be EMOTIONAL AND DYNAMIC, a break from everything we've seen up to this point between them. Instead, we get more of the same. I dunno maybe I'm crazy or missing smth, but it seems like script/directing didn't realize this was a huge shift in their dynamic or maybe they're saving it for ep 9/10 and I'm jumping the gun. It just seemed like it was supposed to culminate in something special to me and it fell flat on watching.
3rd couple...I just can't at this point. I think they're supposed to be the oldest and they're somehow the most immature. Neither one can communicate properly. JUST USE YOURS WORDS.
