“i’ll die for you.” or “i love you.”

and never

Moon Dong Eun & Joo Yeo Jeong

I do like that they haven’t forgotten or brushed aside the trauma that Dong Eun lives with. Dong Eun has triggers. Llike the panic attack in the car shop or when she barely holds on after Jae Jun taunted her about what they did to her and the unconscious way she sometimes scratches her scars. Too often shows just sort of forget about showing the aftermath beyond a couple of episodes, even if it is a revenge drama like this. So I like that they show how much Dong Eun still suffers.

I also like how Yeon Jin remains the focus of Dong Eun’s plans. She wants the others to suffer but ultimately it’s really only Yeon Jin that she needs destroyed. Yeon Jin is the key, because without her the others would not have fallen in line. Also props to Shin Ye Eun as young Yeon Jin because she is pretty terrifying.

Dong Eun’s revenge is pretty meticulous, as she’s slowly pitting the group against one another though I don’t think they understand that yet.

Do Young doesn’t seem to be a terrible person, at least not like Yeon Jin and the others. I don’t think he realized how awful she is but I’m not sure he’s on Dong Eun’s side exactly. 

Right now we have:

So Hee’s body missing

Dong Eun and Hyeon Nam preparing to kill her husband

Yeon Jin finding Dong Eun’s apartment (though i suspect that Dong Eun knew this would happen and is not overly concerned)

Do Young leaning that Ye Sol is not his bio daughter, Yeon Jin has cheated on him their entire marriage, that Yeon Jin bullied in the past and that Dong Eun is coming for her

Jae Jun learning that Ye Sol is his bio daughter, that Yeon Jin kept it from him AND that she’s never loved him (even though she doesn’t actually say that)

Myeong O still missing (I don’t think he’s dead but I do think that Yeon Jin is holding him captive somewhere)

Plus Sa Ra and Hye Jeong whom Dong Eun has only barely played with.

I walked away with the knowledge that I must slay her if I acknowledged who she was. Her approaching death cannot be an excuse for us to be together. Instead of using my coming death as a cowardly excuse to be together… It is much better for us to be tormented instead.
