Fated to love you ~ Episode 10 Review

We are halfway through the story so it shouldn't surprise me that fated took a 180 degree turn in the last episode. The angst and drama is inevitable, although I would be perfectly happy if they show cute and lovey, dovey moments in rest of the epiosdes but we know to keep the show going the writers have to intorduce some plot twists and so far the things between our couple has been too, too good to be true. 

Last night episode has been an emotional coaster ride, the epsiode which started with very passionate kiss between our OTP ended on Gun being hospitalized and Mi-young not with him.

Before I go any further in discussing the drama that was in the last episode I would like to talk about the kiss in the start of the episode. 

In the end of episode 9 we  sawGun give Mi-young a real kiss on the lips and while I was happy to see that I was little dissapointed because Gun's hair was blocking my view and I couldn't really see anything and the fact Mi-young was just standing there without giving any response made me angry. Girl you either kiss him back or you don't, what's with standing still like a statue. 

The episode 10 started from the point where we left in episode 9 that means we continued from the kissing part and all dissapointment and anger dissappeared as I saw the whole kissing scene and I gotta say that. That was one hot damn kiss. I didn't know koreans dramas had it in them to give us such passioante kisses.

And Jang Hyuk damn it, such a fine kisser he is. 

Gun in episode 9 said that he would rather eat her mouth and that's what he did here LOL. Sucking and nipping and exploring. That was one hell of a kiss and then he stopped for a moment and said something to her and then leaned again for a kiss and this kiss felt even more real than the first one. Mi-young also responds to the kiss and GOD it was just perfect. All their emotions, their love for each other, the sadness, the uncertainity of the future you could see it and feel it in that kiss.

I would go as far as saying that this is the best korean drama kiss I've seen so far and I would also like to say that other dramas should learn from this! This is how you kiss, this is the real kiss.

It took them two hours to shoot this kissing sequence and their hard work shows literally.

We got sweet moments woth our OTP which almost gave me diabetes. 

Gun amd Mi-young shopping for the baby together.

Visiting the doctor, Mi-young getting an ultrasound and they hear the hearbeat. Aww :')

When the doctor was giving them updates about  the baby and says that the baby's head is big, I got worried for a second since in the taiwansese version the baby doesn't survives! I was sure now that the they wil take that route but then doc says its fine. Gun also asks him about the sex, I really really wanted to know that too but they didn't reveal it. I learned today that in South Korea doctors are prohibited by law to tell the sex of the baby because parents used to abort the babies if they were having a girl although that doesn't happens there much now but the law still prevails. So that was the reason the doctor was hesitant to tell the sex.

Another thing that I felt was that the writers might be hinting that Gun and Mi-young might have twins.

When they went shopping they saw the prenatal class instructor's twin sister who helped them shop for stuff and they brought two of everythinge especially the two teddy bears and then the doc also said that the head of the baby is big. So here I am hoping they will have twins! EEkk, Squeee but also if they were really having twins wouldn't they hear two heartbeats instead of one? Anyway I have my fingers crossed and I am praying that we will get two dog poppies instead of one.

One of the sweetest moment between Mi-young and Gun in this episode was when they were decorating the nursery. Aww all this made the pregnancy look so real. They discussed the baby's arrival date and guess what it is? February 14th!! hahaha Valentine's day. 

They discuss their birthday's and they learn that they both share the same birthday date! July 23rd. 

They are fated to be together! even the universe is shipping them

They get in bed and continue their conversation. Gun asks her what she wants for her birthday, he says that he will even pluck starts from the sky if she asks. Okay I gotta admit this was way too cheesy and I rolled my eyes at this dialogue. Guess the writers have been watching way too many indian movies. LMAO

These two scenes have been my favorite moments from this episode. Just Gun and Mi-young being like an ordinary couple talking and laughing together made me really happy. 

The hilarious moments in the episode were Gun trying to being close to Mi-young. The poor guy just wants  to have sex with his beautiful wife but Mi-young doesn't take the hints, well he hasn't really pursued her but the looks he was giving her! DAMN!! Me likes pervy Gun.

I cracked up when he sees Mi-young in just a towel and says to himself that "I really want to be that towel right now" Omfg these sexual innuendos they kept giving throughout the first half were too much! LOL

The poor Guy has to take a cold shower to get some relief. I am not sure about the genetic disease but at this point I thought he might die of the severe case of blue balls!

Remember in the review of episode 9 I said that Gun's stepmum is harmless and her antics are fun to watch. I didn't know that she will prove me wrong so quickly. The trick that she did in this episode created havoc in the happy blissful life of our otp. I fucking hate her for that. 

She finds the divorce agreement in gun's room and the next day the whole world knows that Gun and mi-young have a contract marriage!! An emergency family meeting is called by the elder at gun's place and they all are shocked and disappointed to learn that this all is indeed very true!! I love the little moment when Gun and Mi-young hold hands to show that they are in this together. Who knew this little bomb shell would create so much trouble for our couple. Chairman Wang gets ill upon hearing that this is all the truth 

Mi-young's mum comes to take her away. Mi-young tries to explain that it was all in the past and now she is very happy with Gun, she even confesses her love for him infront of everyone, elders included “Mom, I love him.” but omma is too angry to let it go. 

Gun also tries to explain to her as well but omma is too hurt to learn that this whole thing was a scam to really consider leaving her daughter there. All she knows at this moment is that her daughter has suffered a lot and that also alone and now its time to change that. 

Omma: “You hurt my daughter. You took my daughter and made her miserable, I know that very well!”

Although I appreciated how omma atleast listened to what gun was trying to say instead of brushing him off, which I was expecting her to do. I also loved the little moment Gun shared with his grandma. 

Gun: “I had such a difficult time when I first got married… so I did it even though I knew it was petty. Because I thought I at least had to do that so I could endure. But now, Grandma, there’s a place in my heart that’s deafening and awfully empty… empty. I’m going to take care of all this and make you smile, so you can get angry, but just don’t get sick, okay?"

Aww that made me so feel for him. Gunnie don't cry, man that makes me so sad. 

And just like that Gun's priorities change. For him the most important thing right now is to at least do something to make mi-young's birthday memorable rather than focus on his position as a CEO and troubles that the elders are causing or will cause.

Gun plans to spend the day with Mi-young, he along with the help of secertary tak and lawyer dodges the reporters and is on way to see her and over there Mi-young with the help of her best friend and Gun's step-brother also escapes the reporters and goes the place where she's supposed to meet Gun.

I love how Yong helps Mi-young to escape from the reporters. I loved him a lot in this episode, I understood that all he wants is approval and love of his big brother and he is working hard to get that.

The scene between him and Mi-young was very sweet. When she makes dinner for him and tells him that they all are family! “Then I’ll keep you company from now on, We’re family now, after all.”

Yong is very touched by the sweet gesture of his sister-in-law and I guess that brought the change of heart and made him help her to escape the reporters.

For the upcoming episodes I am hoping that he would support Mi-young and Gun since they will face a lot of trials and tribulations ahead. Unlike his bitch of a mother he was total sweetheart in this episode.

Over there Mi-young is waiting for Gun and Gun on the other hand gets a call that their office is holding an emergency meeting. Secretary Tak forces Gun to attend that inseat of meeting Mi-young since his CEO positions is at stake but Gun wouldn't listen to him. All he wants right now is to atleast wish her a very happy birthday.

But before Gun goes to see Mi-young he faints at the side of the road. Oh no my Guni sshe!!

I wanna cry.

poor Mi-young is waiting there for him and keeps calling him but Gun is at the hospital!

I wonder what happened to him suddenly! Is his genetic disease back? I remember doctor octopus saying that he shouldn't worry to much, if he takes too much tension there are chances that he will get the genetic disease. God I sure hope its only a genetic disease and nothing like temporary amnesia or terminal illness, which our korean writers seem to love a lot. I swear to God if that happens I am going to go to seoul and hunt down the writers and kill them.

I have faith in the writers though because this show has been so good so far and its really unpredictable so I am hoping it won't get typical all of a sudden and the fact that in the orignal version Gun didn't get amnesia instead he got temporary blind and this is after all a remake so I am hoping writers won't take the amnesia route but having said that I would say that we saw them taking Gun's wedding ring off and doctors were saying to do an MRI, that means there's definitely something wrong with his brain. YIKES! and now he's not even has his wedding with himself so does that mean he would not remember anything when he wakes up? and the fact that SeRa was at the hospital when he wakes up doesn't help much!

That's another thing that annoyed me, Nobody bothered to telll his wife that he is in the hospital instead SeRa who is ex-girlfriend is there. WTF! Secertary tak what is this??

I felt bad for SeRa when they show a scene of her at ballet studio. I felt bad at how she said that it just gets harder and harder with each passing day but now I guess from next epsiode onwards I have a feeling that she will start to annoy me.

Over there daniel finds Mi-young sitting alone, he calls her and she lies to him that she is with Gun. Daniel gets annoyed that she lied to him and goes to her.

Daniel: "Ever since you met him, you’ve always put up with it, suffered, and waited. But does it really not affect you? I wish you wouldn’t do that anymore. I can’t stand to see it now. I want to be brave about my feelings with you.” 

Aigoo wtf just happened? Is Daniel confessing his feelings for Mi-young? Does he love her now? Is he going to pursue her? 

Seems like this is headed for a love triangle! The drama and misunderstanding for our OTP will start from next week. Let the angst begin.

What I want is that Gun gets his genetic back and maybe lose his position as a CEO. I want Mi-young to be there for him, since Gun has always been her biggest strenght and now since Gun is at the weakest point in his life. I want Mi-young to support him and encourage him like he always encouraged her. Now that SeRa is back it would be good to see Mi-young fight for Gun. I want Mi-young to be strong for Gun, that's what I want to happen. 

I don't want the overused anmensia and terminal illness plot and oh someone get his old hairstylist back for him cause I really hate his new hairstlye, reminds me of professor snape! 

And I want MBC to release a preview or stills or even a BTS pics anything at this point because I might go crazy till next week.

Fated to love you ~ Episode 9 Review

I hate this show! God damn it. I hate how obsessed I have become with this show, I fucking hate it that this show brings out all kinds of emotions in me! I hate that the actors have wonderful chemistry together; I hate it that the writers are doing a tremendous job in making everything about this show applause worthy! GAAAAAH I JUST HATE IT OKAY!  

Fated to love is you ruining me, its ruining me for all other shows out there. I get excited when it’s Wednesday like a girl who gets excited on a Christmas morning it’s been a while that I became this attached to a particular show and I am loving every moment of it.

Each episode of fated is just better than the other I can never anticipate what’s going to happen next because this show surprises me at every turn. If we look at my past record then we will see that by the 9 episode of any show I am mostly a little annoyed or bored. I start to have complains and I would just wish that it would go back to the way it was before and if that show is destined to be my favorite it would pick up shortly otherwise it is doomed for life but fated though that’s not the case. Not yet anyway and considering it’s a WIP there are higher chances of me getting bored of it easily, With a completed show I can easily skip annoying parts but with a WIP you can’t do that and  that the fact that my obsession  with fated is increasing with each episode is worrying me now.

So far in the show there’s not a single character that I hate to the point that I want to kill it and that’s a first for me. I am really enjoying Gun’s step mum and her son. They are harmless creatures; they add more fun to the show in fact. 
There’s Daniel as well, who I really adore and that’s a first again because I don’t get along with second leads normally but man Daniel is just too good to hate. This is the second show of Choi Jin Hyuk that I am watching, I loved him in the heirs and I am really enjoying him in fated and I plan to watch emergency couple next. He’s slowly becoming my favorite actor now. 
Coming back to Daniel I’ll say that I love his bickering with Lee Gun, I love their interaction together. I love how Daniel’s riles up Gun on purpose and how Gun get’s annoyed at him when there’s really no reason to LMAO.

Gun's Imagination was fucking hilarious.

And how he gets infuriated here and says: "Neighborhood oppa! Surrounding oppa! All the oppas she knows—must get rid of them all!”

The bar scene when they are drinking 

Gun: “I’d like for you to draw a clear boundary between you and my wife.”

Daniel: “I think I already stepped on that line.” 

I also love how they both are protective of Mi-young, its fun to watch them squabble over her The photo shoot sequence was so much fun and cute.

I am sure they must have a had a lot fun while shooting this part  because they are great friends off-screen as well and it was all showing in this scene.

What I want the most is for Daniel is to not to fall for Mi-young. I want him to remain her neighboring oppa only I don’t want him to be her romantic oppa. I really really don’t want that. 
If that happens then this show will become ordinary just like every other Korean show out there and I don’t want that for fated! I wanted Mi-young to be Daniel’s long lost sister but I don’t think the writers have that in mind because we saw that SeRa has a scar on her shoulder just like Daniel’s sister so my bet is on SeRa now. 
Too bad I wanted Daniel and Mi-young to be siblings but now since Its SeRa who is his sister most probably what will happen when he eventually finds out? Will Daniel hate Gun more for what he did to his sister? Will he start seeing Mi-young differently now that he has found his sister? Will he have feelings for Mi-young? There’s a higher chance of all this happening if Sera turns out to be his sister BUT most important of all will I hate Daniel if the story takes that direction? God I sure hope not. Let SeRa be his sister, let him even fall for Mi-young BUT please don’t make him into something that we will eventually come to hate because we all love our Danelicious oppa.

Let’s talk about SeRa now. She was one person that I was all ready to hate but so far she has not done anything that will make me hate her. Unlike the Anna of Taiwanese version this SeRa a.k.a Anna is not rude, obnoxious, loathsome, bitchy or outright plain villain of this show. Instead of hating her I felt sorry for her, especially in this episode. We got a little glimpse of her world and that made me understand her character more. She is still mourning the loss of her love and she met with Mi-young and what she said to her really tugged my heart. Instead of being bitchy to her she asked her a simple, honest question that did Mi-young really loved Gun or is this all a ruse? A set up to give their baby home?  SeRa also said it her that she wouldn’t want to have a marriage where there’s no love. I loved how honest and to the point she was and whatever she said was the truth anyway.

SeRa: “Do you love Gun? What’s the meaning behind that when there’s no love involved? Are you okay living like that? I for one, would hate it and be miserable. It’s probably the same for Gun.”

What SeRa doesn’t know is that it’s too late for any tricks now, Mi-young has clearly fallen for Gun and Gun is also in the process of loving her. A thing that started just to protect something that they had created together has gotten much more now.  

We saw SeRa’s mother make an entrance in the show. She turns out to be really cold hearted and bitchy.  She had no shame in slapping her daughter in front of Mi-young and Daniel, seems like SeRa belongs to a troubled household controlling mother who wants her daughter to do everything according to her wishes. It also made me understand that why SeRa is clinging to Gun and not ready to let him go because he’s all the love she has ever got. Aww man that just makes me so sad

In a way it’s a good thing that Daniel will be her brother because she it’s not Mi-young who needs to be rescued its SeRa who needs to saved from the bad wolf.

Now let’s talk about our precious OTP, I saved the best for the last our lovely Cinderella Mi-young and her handsome prince charming Lee Gun.

Where do I start, everything about them is perfection. Even the thought of them makes me giddy one thing before I discuss their character's: Jang Hyuk and Jang NaRa are two wonderful actors and the chemistry they have together is insane and they are killing it, literally KILLING IT. 

Just when I think that they can't be anymore perfect they prove me dead wrong. This episode started where the last one ended, Gun and Mi-young are at the river side Gun gives her a sweet kiss on the cheek just as the fireworks display is going on and they also share a very passionate hug. 

Back home they continue to sleep together on the same bad and Gun continues to has the urge to be close to her, to spoon her, to hug her. Its difficult for him to control himself in-front of Mi-young. If I hadn't known better I would have been really worried for our dear Gunnie because the aerobics he was doing in bed just to get close to Mi-young was not something that a sane person would do. Seemed like someone is performing an exorcism on him. Oops 

In the morning Gun is not shy enough to ask for a goodbye kiss when he is leaving for office. It was so cute to see him point at his cheek again and again. Mi-young at first didn't understood whatever he was trying to say but she got the point in time to give him a sweet kiss on the cheek and Gun's reaction to that kiss - OH sweet Jesus, have mercy on my poor heart - was adkorable!! and the way Mi-young blushes is too cute.

Gun and Mi-young continue have sweet moments through out the episode, their bond becomes stronger as they spend more and more time together. 

They have lunch together at Gun's office, Mi-young prepared a lunch box in one there was Gun's face and on the there was Mi-young's face. 

I love how Gun said that he would eat Mi-young's face instead of his own. 

He eats her nose and then he stares at her real lips, he leans close to want a kiss. Poor guy really wants a kiss right now.  Instead he says that he would rather eat her lips LMAO

I get the subliminal message they are showing here.

One of the cutest scene was when he helps Mi-young in her mother’s new restaurant. Serving drinks to the customers, cleaning the tables. Who cares if  he is the CEO of one of the biggest companies , If a man loves a woman he would anything for her right?

And how cute was that scene when Mi-young cleans his face with a towel and she says to him that it must be tough for him and he takes that in sexual term and says 'I am going to go crazy."  and then leans in for a kiss until their mother interrupts them.

I also love Mi-young’s relationship with her mother. She seems more like a friend than a mother.

How she told her that she is the luckiest girl in the world to get a wonderful husband like Gun and the scene when Mi-youg is upset over the divorce, I love how she comforts and hugs her. Well technically she is supposed to be upset that Mi-ja took money from Gun but in reality she is upset over the divorce.

Divorce agreement let’s talk about that now. While our OTP had sweet moments in the start, they had a little bit sadness in the middle especially for our Mi-young.

Gun calls for a meeting with his lawyer but lawyer before meeting Gun, meets Mi-young. I hate how he just assumed that Gun has set up a meeting to discuss the divorce and before he meets Gun he tells Mi-young everything and Mi-young gets sad knowing that with what they have been through in the last few days Gun still wants a divorce and because of that she becomes cold towards Gun. Gun is unable to understand the sudden change in Mi-young’s behavior.

When the auction is taking place and after Gun wins the cup with their baby’s fetus name on it Mi-young gets up and leave Gun follows her.

She says to him that she can’t take this anymore. She fears that because one day it would be difficult for her to leave as she has started developing feelings for him, she wants to end these whole things now. 

Mi-young: “The better you treated me, I unknowingly became greedier. As we kept living like this, I somehow thought that I’d be able to remain by your side with Keddongie, so I wondered if it was okay to dream for an ordinary kind of happiness like others have. Just like that, I started dreaming of an impossible dream on my own. But I think I know for sure now—that I was only like an unwelcomed guest in your life, always causing you trouble. Lee Gun-sshi… let’s stop.”

I loved how Mi-young poured her heart in this scene. Its about time she tells him how she feels. Jang NaRa again killed this scene.

Gun then asks her that since when she became so selfish. How could she just leave without giving regard to his feelings, without being considerate of his feelings for her?

Gun: “Kim Mi-young, Kim Mi-young, since when were you so selfish? What about me? What about my feelings? The more you tell me not to care, the more I do. I feel at unease if I can’t see you. When you laugh, when you cry—what about my heart that laugh and cries along with you?”

Mi-young: "But you’ve always made me confused. Because you always treat me so well, I keep forgetting the fact that we’ll part. I’m scared… that I won’t want to leave you; that if it isn’t you, it can’t be. Then I… it can’t be…” And before further ado he gives her a real kiss on the lips. YES KISS ON THE LIPS.

Throws confetti! Hallelujah!

All the old  Jang  NaRa and Jang Hyuk fans must be very happy. After 12 long years they finally share a kiss on screen. HAHA

Your patience has been  rewarded dear old Jangg fans.

This episode over all has been as good as the last eight episodes has been. I am so glad that when I anxiously wait the whole week for next episode of fated, it doesn’t disappoints me and I then realize that all my waiting has been worth it.

One more things before I end this review someone tell me what the hell Gun’s hairstyle was! I mean what the hell was that! Did the hairstylist ran out of ideas or what? Please, please, please writers no more experiment with Gun’s hair!! Pretty please with a cherry on top. 

P.S I would have posted it much sooner but thunderstorms and powercuts in my area, meh and now I am now off to watch tonight's episode!
