[Drama 2008] East Of Eden 에덴의 동쪽

[Sam18q]

If YR finds out this is a setup by his Dad to kill DC, she will never forget him.

DC can then cleanly break with President Guk and probably don't need to keep his promise not to steal YR's heart

DC deserve some happiness on what he has done for his family. He deserves some happiness with YR.

Yes it's seems like president gook did set up the kidnap of YR and hes trying to kill DC.

Remember in the preview that laywer kim tae shun said "President Gook never goes to a dangerous places where his life could be in jeopardy, insted he sends the person he wants to kill."

oh and uncle jang shows up with DC's crew and yells at him U GOT SUCKED INTO GOOK DAE HWA'S TRAP.

Basically Gook set it all up.

please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

[Guest 2uss]

Oh wow.. I guess I completely missed that part. I skipped some parts that seemed a little slow . Thanks for clarifying!

well...it's assumed, MH grabs JH's hand and dragged her to his room...we assumed that he raped her, it didn't really show where he forced her on the bed and stuff...the next scene we saw MH sitting on the side of the bed and JH was unconscious due to loss of blood in slitting her wrist

about han ji hye's character, i'm seriously confused. is she a bad person or not??? i don't know what she's trying to do, what she's angry with, and what she's fighting with shin myung hoon for.

if someone could enlightened my muffled brain, i will really appreciate it. i just never understood her character. hating the mother of lee dong chul and all.

HJH's character, Ji Hyun, is somewhat complicated...it's safe to say though that JH is on the side of her son, Tae Ho...

she wants him to inherit Tae Sung corporation...

to my understanding JH's inner-self died when MH raped her...her life now is to live for TH, her son...although in recent episodes it seems that she has grown to accept MH more and more as a man...however, in her heart TH comes first...the recent in-fighting between JH and MH was to keep the secret about him being a "LEE". if MH would reveal the secret it would cost TH's rights to inherit Tae Sung corp...since he is not a "SHIN" by blood...that's why she's angry at MH for being hesitant...

we don't know if JH is really bad or good...she can be neither or both from different perspectives...

[rafaelle]

hi all, what's PHJ? where can i find the thread? i don't understand what rafaelle said? the link linked to the main forum page. cause i'm a lost soul and wanna read the review.

about han ji hye's character, i'm seriously confused. is she a bad person or not??? i don't know what she's trying to do, what she's angry with, and what she's fighting with shin myung hoon for.

in ep 37 she fights with him over what, i also don't know. and what's her intention? or rather, what's her heart? what does she want to do??? kinda pissing me off cause she's like angry for nothing. i mean, what has the birth switch got to do with her? why she angry in the first place? or why should she be affected at all?

if someone could enlightened my muffled brain, i will really appreciate it. i just never understood her character. hating the mother of lee dong chul and all.

hope i can help

"what has the birth switch got to do with her?" the birth switch involves MH and DW ..she's in between 2, as the beloved woman..the 2 men love her since they were kids.

MH -her husband who raped her, she married because she got pregnant and she's also illegitimate child..she want kid to have family she never had, and secured future for he child being heir of Tae Sung

DW-her first love, who love her dearly who's willing to be father of her unborn child after the rape..and continue to keep that love for her

She's angry because she wants the secret kept so His son will be heir of TS...in dialogue translation at PHJ thread..she said she don't want his son to have a poor life. Also she's angry with MH because MH is suspicious when he saw her & DW at the bookstore(a chance meeting) and MH saying "DW is still waiting for you". in epi 37 JH begged MH to be father of family and spare them having poor life..MH replied " I cant, I want to be LDW"...clearly showing his choice. JH maybe having wrong stand but MH should have given her options/possibilities of them doing fine on their own. Instead MH thinks of himself and sounding like its ok with him if JH remains with Shins with DW. MH despite JH's efforts and fullfilling wifely duties thinks JH still love DW only...considering that he raped her, he will always be hounded by the thought JH will not learn to love him. now he seems giving up JH, no semblance at all of old MH who lives for JH alone.

in episode 38, JH & DC agreed, the best is status quo, MH remains a Shin....

as confusion about JiHyun character..Han Ji Hye mentioned in her interview that really the character is "confused". character is complex as what original writer said adding that she's character who will dictate paths the main leads will take. It's hard to say whether she's good or bad..like evryone she has good and bad sides. If she's greedy it's for her son, and I think she's wrong ...but she grew up poor w/o father and Mother, suffered ridicule for being illegitimate..so maybe that's what drives her making this stand for TH

in PHJ thread...."real time translations/reviews" of some parts are done as EOE airs...........check posts of melyssa and tortiz 29 in those pages ....they do it as EOE airs hence 2 of them divide and do same time... that's why it still in diff posts...will edit link once consolidated trans for each episode is available

translation/review of episode 37 on pages 71-72, episode 38 pages 74 & 75.

who know song which played JH and MH's scence in a car [ep.38]

At 1:00:00, the song played was A Sad Story Than Sadness by Kim Bum Soo. It's a movie (A Sad Story Than Sadness) OST. Kwon Sang Woo, Kim Bum Soo & Lee Bo Young are the main cast in the movie.

I uploaded the song onto MU.

Thank you so much for a song.

[Guest 2uss]

:excl: [ ep38 was confusing so it seems that the whole scuffle at the Int'l hotel and kidnapping of YR was set up by Guk all along?? to lure out DW in conflict with DC in the overal scheme of things...no?? since he knew that DC would still try to save YR regardless...he sets up the meet at the harbor where he knew DW would try to disrupt and arrests anyone involving in illegal smuggling in that area...hmm i could be wrong...but it's very really fast paced and kinda confusing ] :excl:

[Guest winwetty]

in epi.36, Guk says that he love his daughter so much till he wants to take revenge to Mike's family but I still don't understand why must he do that to his beloved daughter just to get DC...?

since DC always by his side and so loyal to him..he can just kill DC without involving YR...

now is just another 2 more episode...we will gonna miss HR and her family...

[Guest devylann]

gosh as this LDH's departure approaches....imma all sappy and alrdy missing her.... imma so sad that this drama cheated her... i jus hope they give her something good at the end.... the writer wrote a sucky character for her... LDH hwaiting!

it sucks that pres guk has to use his daughter to get to DC!!

i don't really like the fact that all of a sudden this drama is jumping so fast and it doesn't even seem like it flows with the previous ones... i really don't have much else to say anymore... i guess bc imma still bummed out about how the writer changed a lot of things and is going to change a lot of things..

imma still watch it to support SSH!!! and now.. imma starting to like myung hoon's character...he's coming alive and i love it!!!

[Guest 2uss]

so the birth revelation so far goes like...

Rebecca (source) --> MH --> JH --> DC --> Priest Han --> JJ ('lil mom/KS' mom) --> ??

anyone wanna guess who will know next??

[Guest misskorea]

Personnally I knew that from the very beginning

there'll be a big problem in this drama

cause they took too much stars for many lead-2nd characters!

The role Lee DaHae had didn't bother me

I thought her character was fine

but if She considered her role isn't necessary or important anymore

we don't have choice but accept it

Anyway I hope she won't be cut from all other casting bcoz of that

and do nice drama too^^

Love Eden ae Dongjjok

ps: I love the guy who said 'Is Eden ae Dongjjok Song Seung Heon's drama?!? ^' -p

[Guest christy8891]

Yes... Myung Hoon's character is finally "put to good use"...

I have been waiting for the drama to have more of his scenes!

Park Hye Jin is a really good actor.

Support him always~

Hope his and Han Ji Hye's characters in the drama will have a happy ending.

[amareally]

Can someone brighten me, I read it somewhere that YR kidnap was done by Guk to get ride of DC, is that true

Hi Ctyhome,

When i first read your post I was like "What ?? Seriously? No way!" but then I watched the whole eps and I went "hmmmh could be true" remembering how 'calm' Gook Dae Hwa in dealing her daughter's kidnapping . What the heck is he up to ???

[Guest 2uss]

GUK YOU'RE HORRIBLE!!!

what kind of father are you that you'll use your own daughter as bait :tears:

[Guest misspinky]

wow just finished watching episode 37 on mysoju.com and boy was that intense! i still can't believe LDH is leaving but she definitely isn't portraying a main character. the relationship between JH and MH is still rather confusing for me. and LDC and MH, so much to look out for in the upcoming episodes.

EOE Fighting

[Guest star]

If he's willing to sacrifice his daughters happiness for the chance at making a few dollars he's willing to kidnap her in order to prove a point or to cause others pain/suffering. It's like page 1 in the Evil handbook.

NNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Is DongChul going to die!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

NNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

TT__________________________________TT

I hate Gook Daehwa. I hated him from the beginning. Youngran must

take after her mother. Ughhhhhhhh nOooooooooooooooo

I better get a box of tissues ready...

[Guest godlovesBoA]

^lol, rest easy. dong chul cannot die. he main character. even if he dies, it'd be at the last episode. that's the turn off about dramas and movies that i figured out. for sure i know they won't die until the end. so when they try to scare us in the middle, i roll my eyes.

wanna give a big shoutout to rafaelle and 2uss for answering my questions and clearing my very confused mind. you girls EOE experts. although i've also been watching every episode since the beginning, i can't understand it like you girls.

i guess there's no good or bad in ji hyun. we can't tell it as of now. she just a portrayal of human nature: both bad and good. i forgot her circumstance; she grew up a bastard child. this explains her defensive behavior towards taeho. i just thought it was too much at first that it was annoying. cause she reminds me of soccer moms and their overprotectiveness. of course, i still love han ji hye as an actress even if her character annoys me.

also, the part that bothered me was, so what lee dong wook was actually shin myung hoon, vice versa. it doesn't change the fact that her real love is dong wook and she just married myung hoon because of the rape. whether she's turning out to really love myung hoon is another story. don't know why her character had to be bothered by that. maybe it makes sense for me to think she is upset cause myung hoon will turn to live as dong wook and leave their lives of luxury. if that's the case, then she is bad. at least for this part. no matter her circumstance. cause she would rather choose riches to a life of truth. especially it's not even her problem. let myung hoon be who he wants to be. that's his happiness. and she's stopping him from that? other than the reason she's upset cause she wants to be rich, i don't comprehend her anger. cause imagine you have a lover, and your lover turns out to have a different set of parents. so? the most you'll feel is, "oh my poor lover, poor thing, his parents were actually xxx." that's it. nothing personal or to be upset over like ji hyun. that's why i was confused.

anyhowz, i'll be heading to PHJ's thread to read for more understanding. thank you all for your inputs. love EOE. haha

since she know about birth secret, she has not shown worry for DW..for emotional effects to DW when its revealed to him. guessing she could have fallen in love with MH already...she's even worried that DC wont love MH same way he love DW. as for MH..its too drastic of his character being shown ready to abandon TH, JH, and those who brought him up her Shin Mom (OY) and SHin Granpa so he can return to the Lees.

If JH if is really selfish and greedy she can always just think that DW being a real Shin will be more than willing to take her as a wife and TH as son...she can just let MH go, return to Lees...she will be free for DW. but she wants to remain a Shin and wants MH to remain too....that's really confusing unless she already love MH. She could be upset because the different stands she & MH have, could separate them. from Han Ji Hye's latest interview "In the upcoming episodes, JH will become a bad character who's not really bad"...wishing JH character will really turn bad at some point...bad enough to hate JH character....and good enough for the actress to show more excellent acting.
