Kang Hoon Found It Hard to Accept Shin Hye Sun's Revelation About His Love in "Dear Hyeri" Episode 7

I just couldn't help but be in awe how beautiful this drama really is, for me. I so love the story telling, the depth of the characters and the picturesque and heartfelt scenes. Because of these factors, I can accept and understand the angst being served to me with each new episode. Although I really love Kang Ju Yeon and Hyeri, I also adore Hyun Oh and Eun Ho. Understanding each of these characters is really a beautiful thing because it helps you forgive each characters for their mistakes after knowing where they're coming from. In the case of Eun Ho/Hyeri, Hyun Oh and Ju Yeon, they do not intentionally want to hurt each other or other people. They may just behave unusually and sometimes really bothering and confusing but at the end of the day, they are all just bunch of people who are going through difficult phases of their lives and that they're only trying things that they think are for the best. Like keeping things to themselves, pretending to be someone else, relying or depending on others for happiness, and many more. They are all thinking for survival on a daily basis from both internal external factors affecting them. 

I completely get the frustrations that some of the viewers has for the story though, especially dragging the innocent and sad boy Kang Ju Yeon to the picture of Eun Ho and Hyun Oh. I get it and I am frustrated too, 'coz boy I really love Kang Ju Yeon, but that's just how it is. Hyeri is just a mental disorder of Eun Ho that's needed to be cured at the end of the day, and that fact was served from day 1/episode 1 of the drama. So, whether you like it or not, the story is going to flow to the direction where the solution is for each characters' issues and one of those is for Eun Ho to get cured/ Hyeri to be gone. I find the flow of the story to be completely understandable and acceptable, really. Eun Ho needs to heal after all too and so is Kang Ju Yeon and the rest of the characters in here. 

I don't know if you have felt it or noticed it, but there's actually a build up for Hye Yeon's character in here. And it made me think that it's the way of the writer for us viewers to think that Kang Ju Yeon will have someone to catch him/be by his side during this difficult time of accepting the truth about Hyeri. And you know what? I wouldn't be against it at all, in fact this is absolutely a great idea.

Four Ladies Exploring the Fun of Selling 'Unusual' Products in "A Virtuous Business" Episodes 1 and 2 | Review



The new weekend drama called A Virtuous Business is becoming my new favorite go-to drama for this schedule. It is set in the 90s where men and women are living in an old fashion way wherein the men in the household controls their wives and so the wives sacrifices their fun times just to serve their husbands. Seriously, I don't think I could ever survive in this era. I'm gonna get so bored at home doing only household chores and basically being a maid to my husband and wife. It's a decent life of course, so there's really nothing wrong about it. But if it's just me, I wouldn't want my life to be contained like this in a box.

Thankfully, Han Jeong Suk (Kim So Yeon) and Seo Yeong Bok (Kim Sun Young) had the urge to sell adult toys to conservative women of the town they're living in. They all experience a new fun to explore. Jeong Suk is a very beautiful woman who's getting a lot of sidelines to make ends meet because her husband isn't a good provider and is actually a cheater. Meanwhile, Seo Yeong Bok has a lazy husband who they believe to be unfortunate when it comes to money, which is why Seo Yeong Bok also got into this kind of business of selling adult toys. Both of their husbands are really problematic, especially when it comes to providing for the family. However, the difference with the two is that, Seo Yeong Bok's husband is very supportive and loving to her. While Han Jeong Suk's husband is the worst, he doesn't support her financially and even in her business endeavors. Worst with that is he cheated on Jeong Suk. 


Jeong Suk and Yeong Bok continued selling their vulgar products, despite the criticisms they get, they still managed to sell a lot and earned money. They managed to meet real friends that are very open minded and are very helpful to them sell their products. Oh Geum Hui (Kim Sung Ryeong) is a wealthy woman who gathers prospect customers in her house for Jeong Suk and Yeong Bok to sell their products. Geum Hui is very elegant as she is wealthy and very knowledgeable. However, she's living a boring life because she couldn't have fun while being controlled by her very conservative husband. Lee Ju Ri (Lee Se Hee), on the other hand, is a single mom who's working in the parlor to make a living but eventually helps Jeong Suk and Yeong Bok as their model for their slip dresses. 

The four of them became real good friends as they sell these adult toys to the women of their town. Despite the negative comments from other people, they all believe that their products have the potential to be successful because it changed their lives and made living more fun and better. In short, they all believe in their products and that's really something important when selling a product.

Dear Hyeri Episodes 3 and 4 Recap | Reaction Summary

 

They're really making us fall for them. 

🥹 They'll be making us feel heart fluttering moments only to cry later in the end. 😭


This ending of episode 3 made me excited for Eun Ho! 🤩

2 lovely men after her and are calling her with different names! 😭


Hyeri, Eun Ho's other self, is aware what would happen to her once Eun Ho's symptoms got better. She will disappear and she didn't want it because she's in love and much happier than Eun Ho. 🥲💔


They are so in love with each other. I so want them to be the end game but that's now how it'll go... 😭💔


Imagine waking up and reading your other self's diary asking you to give it to her. 😭 Eun Ho must be confused af! 😆

Hyeri got to meet Ju Yeon's mom and it became an instrument for the mom to specifically refer to her son Ju Yeon and not her d3ad son when talking with her. 🥹

Hyeri really is incredible.


There's really no point in choosing between the 2 men. They may be looking at the same person, but they're in love with different personality.

Hyun Oh is the one for Eun Ho and Ju Yeon is the one for Hyeri. It's just sad that there can only be one love to surv!ve. 🥲💔

Everyone around them were pan!cking but Hyun Oh knows exactly what to do. It wasn't his first time seeing this for sure.

He knows how Eun Ho has been mentally unstable. And only he can calm her down and make her back to her own feet again. 🥲❤️


Kim Jae Young Asks Help From Park Shin Hye Even After Deceiving Her in The Judge From Hell Episode 8

That was a very emotional ending scene for The Judge from Hell episode 8. I was bawling my eyes when Da On's backstory meeting detective Kim flashed before me after finding out what unfortunate end she experienced. Detective Kim was such a good person who became eager to become the best detective she could be to catch the serial killer who murdered a lot of people including Han Da On's parents and sibling. And to think that she ended up being killed too by that murderer she's trying to catch was so heartbreaking. I can really feel Han Da On's sadness and wrath towards the killer. At the end of the day, you'd think that he's just a powerless human against such kind of devils disguising as human too. I don't really blame him for seeking help from a demon, Justitia, after this incident in his life. Serial Killer J really needed to have a grave punishment matched for his grave crimes and we all know that Justitia is the only one who could bestow such punishment. Waaah! Actually, the ending scene of episode 7, I already knew this would happen. The prideful officer/police, Han Da On, ending up seeking help from Justitia. The creature that he's been trying to catch ever since. If Arong/Venato is watching this, she'll probably say how pathetic these two, Justitia and Da On, are right now. kkkk

Anyway, I think this drama would start to get emotional from now on. Justitia crying after watching Da On devastated and desperate to avenge his senior detective. It's just amazing how this drama could give us a one full roller coaster ride of emotions in just one episode. I always love it when it gives me that kind of experience! And I'm pretty sure that I'm not the only one loving this because episode 8 got a new record in the nationwide viewership rating of 13.6%. It's their highest to date! Really impressive, The Judge From Hell cast and prod!

Dear Hyeri Episodes 1 and 2 Recap | Reaction Summary

Sometimes you'll just think what went wrong especially to those who loved each other so much at the beginning and then h4ted each other in the end.


That's what's happening in Shin Hye Sun's newest drama Dear Hyeri.

So, is there anyone watching this here? 🤔


Isn't this how most of kdrama characters change their boring life into something exciting and special? By falling in love. 🤭


Another representation of 'age is just a number' in love. 


I got really surprised by the ending of episode 1 of Dear Hyeri 😱

I mean, if I'm like that.... what more for this guy?! 😭


Waking up from deep sleep is what trig/gers the switching of personality of Hyeri or Eun Ho. And by her 'usual' routine, Eun Ho is present during the day and Hyeri is present during late afternoon/night. 😱

When switched to Hyeri, she can remember what happen to Eun Ho. But Eun Ho can't remember Hyeri.

Hmm.... the psychiatrist said Eun Ho and Hyeri are just the same... but there's a childhood memory that both Hyeri and Eun Ho exist at the same time..🤔


This is really surprising. Haha No wonder that kiss lingers on Joo Yeon's mind. It was his first kiss. 🤭🥰

And way to go, Hyeri. 😆 That weird act of kissing your crush first before confessing is working on Joo Yeon. Lol

This weird act only in Kdrama though! 🤣



I feel like Hyun Oh knows about Eun Ho's real condition. He took the 4pm news from Eun Ho at the beginning, he also sends her to morning gigs with his staff, he also asked a favor to his staff to finish their work with Eun Ho (so they won't stay overnight), he also come running to rescue her from the freezer when Eun Ho texted someone else. I feel like he was around near their area watching over her all the time?

What do you guys think? 🤔

I like Kang Joo Yeon but Hyun Oh is a different kind of green flag too. 😍
