BUT I'm glad that the show was able to make fun of itself a little with the scene between Hoon-dong and Jang-mi. I know I shouldn't have been laughing, but their pity party was freakin' hilarious!

And it was refreshing to have Jang-mi simply find out about Ki-tae's feelings from him. That said, I'm still so bummed that she didn't get to find out with his proposal because that would have just been such a surprise for her: Ahhh, the separation, it hurts, but it hurts so goooood. I so wanted Ki-tae at least to have sent photos of the proposal display to omoni as she requested so that Jang-mi could see it.
It was such a reversal from the first time day met during which she laid out a similar display for his friend that it was a shame she never knew about it. I know, me too! And if her mom had seen it then she totally would have known he was being sincere! I seriously want her to get that proposal SO badly now. Like it better happen. In fact, it needs to be even better than the one Se-ah had the pleasure of crashing.
It needs to be epic. I am not Asian so I don't know how common these grand gestures are in real life but I have a sense dramas make people expect these things and life starts to imitate the art after a while. For example, I find typical drama date to be quite formulaic. So I generally find these kinds of things quite cheesy. But in Ki-tae's case it was so unlike him and showed how much he loved and valued Jang-mi to do that for her that I found it adorable. He was so excited and happy with himself, too. Yea I totally agree about it was great to have Jang-mi just find out about Ki-tae liking her.
There was no fanfare, just his best friend telling her and her realizing their feelings were mutual. It's so ridiculously realistic and simple which makes it all the more heartbreaking. Maybe he can propose to her again soon This time with complete honesty and their families approving wholeheartedly! Was the noble idiocy really necessary when it lasted all of five minutes and an expensive phone was lost in the process? Nevertheless, I do think this is a realistic conflict because Mom, being a victim of cheating, will never forgive cheaters.
So Jang Mi legitimately believes she will forever be branded as a cheater by Mom and will never be able to recover from that, thus decides to leave Ki Tae "for his own good. Took her long enough, jeez. I am just thankful the noble idiocy was contained to one episode.

This must be Hoon Dong's purpose in the show. The ensuing scene of them wallowing in self-pity was priceless; I don't know how Han Groo and Heo Jung Min were able to film that without bursting into laughter. I am glad that after their really bad breakup, they were able to remain friends who genuinely worry about each other. I was counting on those loose lips. I love when Ki Tae blew up about Dad being a two-timing bastard because he was only speaking the truth, and Mom needed to hear it.
Jang Mi's mom better be planning something with Dad with her request for a divorce, like trying to drive the two kids closer when they try to convince her to stay or pushing Jang Mi to turn to Ki Tae when she needs a shoulder to cry on; otherwise, I do not understand why Mom would selfishly do that at a sensitive time like time. When Grandma said, "You've been watching them all this time, so you will know, too," I wish she meant, "you will know they have real feelings for each other," which we confirmed last episode that Mom does know.
I was actually surprised it was an LG instead of a Samsung, yk maybe they threw it on purpose in the HR so that they'd get her a proper Korean brand Even though Ki-tae had bought it she didn't even need to dump the phone. She just needed to get rid of the SIM card. He knew about their relationship. That, plus the fact that her initial intro to JM was also the title of HD's ex and the quick recovery into KT's current albeit fake. That was some '2 timing' as even while officially 'dating' YR the dating as the 3 of them understood it she was already developing feelings for Ki Tae, but yet not ending it with YR in a more decisive, cleaner cut.
Even when it was clear YR knew, JM never quite came out to clarify anything with YR, nor did she officially cut off their relationship - which is why they were still kissing last wkend, when she interrupted the YR kiss. Jang Mi was still confused about her true feelings until the end of this episode. It might have been wrong for her to continue stringing YR along, but honestly it is consistent with her character to cling to a relationship and do things the messy way. I think it is possible for relationships to get complicated and people to get hurt even if no one did anything really wrong.
This was a difficult episode, and I'm not sure I liked it as a whole some of the angst just didn't move me , but one breakthrough that I DID like was the breakup of Jang Mi's parents. I actually really empathized with Jang Mi's wish for her parents to stay together her reason for the sham engagement definitely resonated with me a lot more than Ki Tae's desire to be left alone - it's such a childlike desire - but that's also my problem with Jang Mi. As an almost year-old woman at least according to the character profiles , it's more than time for her to view the situation through adult lenses, and accept that a marriage can be saved or not only by the 2 people participating in it.

I think that Jang Mi's parents should have broken up a long time ago, it is obvious the are at constant war so why keep dragging it out. But people do that - they are so afraid of uncertainty and change that they stick with a bad situation. Thanks for the recap. Let's have more cute moments with our lead couple.
Hope it's god riddance now for Se Ah and Yeo reum.

YWJ and HG play their characters so well. I enjoy watching their lovely couple moments together and now they would have to deal with the parents. This is definitly alot better then i expected. I really love how hoon dong and jang mi are friends and not awkward. Even Se ah, seemed redeemable after telling Ki tae to go after Jang mi which was a nice twist for her, though i dont doubt she may try something else later, i would love to see her, instead of being the pathethic, revenge-driven, typical female second lead, being Jang mi's friend, since they are in some ways pretty similar.
Also, I have no Sympathy what so ever for Yeo Reum. Setting Jang Mi up was not cool, but not even feeling slightly guilty about? Honestly dont know what his deal is. I really dont want him to mess with Jang Mi and Ki Tae anymore. I thought since u were doing the two recaps this one was goin to take longer but kudos to u.
I love how everything played out..
All the imaginary scenes were so cute.. I wish they hurry up and get together so we can see some home living hijinks from the both of them.

All in all the progress of this episode made giant leaps in each character.. JM being alone but I was so happy that KT was the first person on her mind before she realized jt.. I'm waiting to see him sell him house he loves so much so that he can show his family how much he truly cares for her.. Kt mom is making a turn for the better but I'm surprise she is still putting up with her husband.. I would be too embarrass to even meet the person.. This was probably on re of the better episodes for me since we got so few screen times with the second leads and jm and hoo.
Crying to each other about how their lives suck was epic and it would of been much weirder if jm didn't get fired so glad they kept thay realistic.. The noble idiocy act for this I understand because she doesn't want more distance between kt and his mom and I see where she is coming from..
I'm dying now since we don't even get previews. I personally don't mind the pacing of the OTP. I think it's realistic and quite necessary, especially for MND, seeing how that's the main plot of the drama- to get into a fake marriage and eventually fall for each other. If they were to get together too soon, it would only mean that they have to keep arguing with their parents that they truly want to be together. But having said that, I guess I can't help being frustrated at the same time. It's only natural for many viewers to be so irritated at the pacing of the drama, seeing how we're so affected by the OTP because they're just so endearing!
Their chemistry is spot on. I guess this is why I can't wait to see them finally confessing their love TO each other soon.

It pains me to see them so fond of each other, and yet be so conflicted for not being able to confess at the same time given their current situation. I honestly think I'm the only person not bothered by the pacing or by the fact that the truth has only just come out. The show is about a fake marriage. Why would I be upset that they continued to pretend to be fake engaged for so long? The important players the parents hadn't found out yet so the ruse could totally continue. Plus I think the show has done a great job of exposing all of the issues facing the OTP with regards to their ability to accept their feelings for one another and actually choose to be together.
That doesn't just go away. If anything, I wish the show had spent more time allowing the OTP to reflect on their issues and start working through them so that when the happy ending comes, I can feel satisfied that these two actually have the ability to HAVE a lasting, healthy relationship. As it stands now, I still think they both but especially KiTae need a lot of therapy to get in a good place first.
To add, I did feel somewhat frustrated at the way things were playing out; however my issue was not with the fake engagement BUT with the fact that the writers chose to use the second leads as wrenches to prolong the conflict and keep them apart. I'm perfectly fine with them telling me that KT and SA needed closure but to have her throw herself at him repeatedly and to go to ever greater lengths to be with him when he has made it very clear from day one that he's not interested in being with her - that frustrates me.
Second leads serve a purpose but eventually it gets to a point where it's time to wrap things up with them and focus on the OTP and I wish the show had done that a little faster. I'm afraid that's what the writer would do. Purposely leave us hanging here expecting the inevitable and then crush our hope. I'll curse the writer if they don't confess their feelings in the nxt episode. It sure as hell has been dragged on too long already. I'm losing my patience here. I have a feeling that both of them could still pop up with an eleventh-hour scheme to break up the newfound couple assuming that Jang-mi and Ki-tae acknowledge their feelings soon and throw one last wrench into things".
