So Gae is at the exact same spot his father was.
 

 

Yeah but as BS pointed out, at least everyone was sad about his father's death. Yet no one pity SG now.

EP 35 recap by kjtamuser :

The Merchant Gaekju Episode 35 Recap

Posted on 02/08/2016 by kjtamuser — 2 Comments

Mae Wol strives to avoid getting blamed for So Sa’s murder. She’s willing to strangle, muzzle and ditch to keep her secret.

The Merchant Gaekju Episode 35 Recap

We start with Bong Sam (Jang Hyuk) making his way to pay respects at So Gae’s father’s new grave marker. Unbeknownst that Bong Sam is behind him, So Gae (Yu Oh Seong) tells his father he should be proud of him. He’s become Head Merchant and he’s gotten revenge against the Chun family.  Stunned Bong Sam drops the wine. He asks if So Gae betrayed his father. So Gae, bolstered by power and a “you can’t get me back” mentality, FINALLY admits it. Yes, he betrayed Bong Sam’s father. Bong Sam takes the direct approach and punches him. Yes! Bong Sam kicks him. Yes! Bong Sam pushes him away! Bong Sam yells to his father “Why did you save a person like this?” Bong Sam kicks So Gae who manages to rise and kick Bong Sam back. So Gae staggers away. Bong Sam pursues him. Folks, we’ve waited a long time for this moment. I especially liked Bong Sam questioning his father’s choice in sacrificing his life for So Gae. Bong Sam gave So Gae a well deserved smack-down!

Mae Wol (aka Gae Dong (Kim Min Jung)) learns that So Gae and Bong Sam were fighting. Startled she heads to the fight location.

Yep, they are still going at it. Mae Wol spots the brawl and hurries to the men. Bong Sam is NOT holding back. Bong Sam defeats an exhausted Bong Sam. So Gae gasps that Bong Sam’s father forgave him. Bong Sam retorts he will never forgive So Gae. In fact, he should have killed him before, when Sung Jung died. Bong Sam stares at So Gae and has a horrible thought. He demands to know if it was So Gae that killed So Sa. Mae Wol overhears the question as she finally reaches the two men. So Gae states he had no reason to kill So Sa. Mae Wol shakes her head at So Gae pleading with him not to tell. Bong Sam raises a rock ready to smash So Gae. Instead Bong Sam gets smashed by Mae Wol. Both men lay on the ground. Mae Wol escorts Bong Sam to the stables. Team Bong Sam are stunned to see Bong Sam on a stretcher. Mae Wol explains Bong Sam fought with So Gae. Mae Wol cups Bong Sam’s back with everyone watching. Mae Wol states Bong Sam was hit by So Gae’s guard (that seems like a dumb lie that Bong Sam can easily expose). Gol Dae (proving he is not stupid) points out that So Gae doesn’t have guards. Sun Dol asks Mae Wol why she was so upset the day the Head Merchant died. Mae Wol answers the question with a question – why are you curious. Bong Sam mutters he was curious her tears on that day too. Bong Sam asks what happened between Mae Wol and the Head Merchant. Mae Wol says the Head Merchant was important to her and helped her path. Wol doesn’t look satisfied with the answer but the others do.

Mae Wol prepares to return home. Sun Dol tells her it is too late to travel and presses her to stay overnight. He offers So Sa’s room. Wol takes exception to this offer.  The compromise is for Mae Wol to sleep in the baby’s room.........

The Merchant Gaekju Episode 36 Recap

Posted on 02/09/2016 by kjtamuser — 3 Comments

So Gae had a bad day. Will it end with a death sentence?

The Merchant Gaekju Episode 36 Recap

We start with Bong Sam (Jang Hyuk) meeting with the Nephew who displays the artist’s picture of Bong Sam. The Nephew says that Bong Sam played it perfect. He took the rice. But he didn’t do it without someone realizing he was the culprit. Sun Dol begs for mercy. Bong Sam, on the other hand, says the tax rice belonged to the people. The Nephew doesn’t care about the rice. Then what Bong Sam asks? The Nephew cares about the 20,000 merchants. He wants Bong Sam to become the leader and bring the merchants under his thumb. Bong Sam, gotta love him laughs, says no, the merchants aren’t something the Nephew needs. The Nephew sticks it to Bong Sam, the lives of your friends and merchants depend on your choice. He offers Bong Sam to consider this important choice. Bong Sam looks pained.

Mae Wol (aka Gae Dong (Kim Min Jung)) is on an intercept course and in a hurry.

Bong Sam asks why the Nephew wants the merchants. The Nephew asks how many merchants there are 200,000. How many soldiers? 190,000. Ah, there is power in numbers and people. Bong Sam does not want to involve the merchants in the Government power struggles. The Nephew offers him one more chance to change his mind. He hears Mae Wol is there but declines to see her. Boldly, Mae Wol rushes into the room without an invitation just as the Nephew loses his patience with Bong Sam. Mae Wol convinces the Nephew they must speak. The Nephew tells Bong Sam he dodged a bullet. He asks for Sun Dol’s name.Hmm, is the Nephew thinking the next in line might bend to his will? 

Mae Wol tells Sun Dol that she’s more valuable to Bong Sam than he is. In other words, Sun Dol you’ve got a target on your back..............

In this cut scene, it seems like Bong Sam decided to accept Mae Wol's heart... The name of this cut scene is 장혁, 김민정 마음 받아줬다.."내 곁으로 와라", according to google translate, it seems to be "Bong Sam receives Mae Wol's heart..."Come to my side"". Am I wrong or is the writer is crazy? Writer-nim, you let Mae Wol killed Bong Sam's wife and now he let her stay by his side...

My only hope here is that Bong Sam seems not to be comfortable with this decision, just like he is forced and has no way to do except accepting her. Btw, I hate Mae Wol. If they really end up together, I sure I wont watch it anymore and I will delete it from my drive...

l am certain Bong Sam is just being a good friend and be by Mae Wol's side to comfort her after he witnessed how Mae Wol's parents rejected her.  Bong Sam always kind to many people; and hence so easily manipulated by So Gae time and time again.  Because l cannot understand the language, my guess is that out of sympathy Bong Sam decided to take Mae Wol as his step sister; upon hearing this, Mae Wol was overjoyed ... but not Wol (So Lin's servant).

En esta escena de corte, parece que Bong Sam decidió aceptar el corazón de Mae Wol ... El nombre de esta escena de corte es 장혁, 김민정 마음 받아 줬다 .. "내 곁 으로 와라", de acuerdo con el traductor de google, parece ser "Bong Sam recibe el corazón de Mae Wol ..." Ven a mi lado "". ¿Me equivoco o es el escritor es una locura? Escritor-nim, se deja Mae Wol mató a la esposa de Bong Sam y ahora él la dejó permanecer a su lado ...

Mi única esperanza es que Bong Sam parece no estar a gusto con esta decisión, al igual que lo es forzado y no tiene manera de hacerlo excepto la aceptación de ella. Por cierto, no me gusta Mae Wol. Si realmente terminan juntos, estoy seguro que no voy a ver más y voy a borrarlo de mi unidad ...

WTF... Its so crazy... My God... 

I thought reincarnate his wife , which I am silly

I was screaming my head off when watching that part, how can BS accept MW? But then I feel more at ease when I see Wol and Sun Dol still around. I am sure they will help BS see her true colors. No way will they allow the hero to end up together with a murderer!!
