anbud Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 @sk0317 in real life I went through a lot with my ex MIL. but even at 19, i laughed away her words.cause my son is more important, and he will not be a happy child if his mother makes herself depress. so, ex mil speak. I nod, and kept on playing with my son. which pissed my ex MIL off. so, i knew then the only way to hurt my EX mil. is to never let her get under my skin, and be real in your joy with your child. babies can smell when something is not right, they can't speak but their senses are pure, and they feel it by comfort that is not right. so i never wanted trash to enter my emotional system. cause i might pass it on to my baby boy.

Last couple weeks I have been caught in the crazy US election cycle. hehehe I have to say this election is truly a makjang-kdrama. Compared to what has happening with the election, TUF seems rather sane and logical. I’m not surprised to see TUF has extended. TUF has been #1 in ratings ever since. I guess the production team couldn’t turn down making extra revenue with additional eps. Some wondered before how the k-viewers would think of TUF. Well a couple weeks ago I saw the k-viewers were sneering and kicking about such absurdity of the plot lines. They tossed out eggs to the writers and even to DY when she acted with noble idiocy by ending with DT. These k-viewers are very familiar with many makjang elements, yet such a tangled/twisted interconnection among 3 families makes them jaw dropping and head spinning: one example, DY(aunt) and SW(niece) are tangled with one man(DT), and at the same time MS(DT’s dad) and SA( SW’s mom/DY’s SIL) are sort of developing a relationship. We know daily is very competitive so TUF has been #1 which could be because of this unusual/ wacky plot line. Someone here talked about taboo stuff in some relationship, but the writers don’t seem to care about it which makes the viewers feel crazy/stupefied. Omg ??DT’s engagement with SW "지금이제일중요하다/ Now this is the most important " "블링블링 길은혜다./ bling bling Gil Eun Hye" oh dear god, no. no. hope some home truths come out of this mes.

That way, I keep my sanity. Thank you for all your posts which have kept me up to date. Really, can any more problems be created by these people? It's just one twist after another! I really am looking forward to how every sick bit will be ironed out, sanitized and tied up neatly at the end. I am also surprised it's number one on its time slot. Lack of competition maybe? Or viewers so aghast and excited about the taboo subjects they cannot help but keep watching. With all the shenanigans and bad behaviour it should be called The Twisted Family instead of The Unusual Family. From the BTS pictures, we see a more relaxed, fun and happy looking group of TUF actors and actresses. I wonder if that's the way they keep their sanity. I think the writers are 'killing three birds with one stone'. TUF continues to stay and receive top ratings, the writers get extra revenue for the extension and their 'fantasies' that hardly ever happen in real life are reproduced through this wacky, freaky, unusually strange and twisted drama. # My MIL shares the same birthday as KJW!

anbud Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 i can dislike an actor /actress roll in a drama. at the same time I don't want to be personal about it. it is the character they acting i dislike.. these actors/actress are working hard to get a job. they are educated males and females. and acting jobs can't be that easy. I would like to see the dramas from the older actors/actress when they were young. I seen some pics of those we see as bad MIL, and those acting as father in laws and so on. and wow some of these woman was very beautiful,some spunky in their younger days. some of the men was very handsome... wish I could see all of their beginning to their now high class top of it all.

Another 30 more episodes to go. Sigh. The novelty and initial excitement we had for TUF have certainly worn off in many ways due to its extension and a plot that is sadly lame and stagnant.

808lostmc Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Well I was completely wrong about how the SA encounter with SW and DT would go, they did meet. Judging from the preview of ep 121 SW was not outed by SA. This means that SA has joined the before mentioned "Dumb and Dummer" club and wasted a perfect opportunity to out SW. Nuts! Another thing that I question is why wasn't more made of the question of what was DY doing at SW's apartment when DT woke up in SW's bed at the beginning of ep 116. SW called DY and told her she was sick and to come over right away. When DY arrives SW lied and pretended not to know why DY was there. DY says that SW called her over but before SW can respond DY sees DT waking up in SW's bed and runs out of the apartment. Later on DY should have realized that SW lied about being sick and only called her over there because SW wanted her to see DT in her bed. DY should have known that she and probably DT had been set up. When DT first wakes up he asked what is he doing there. His next question should have been what was DY doing at the apartment. Even if the shock of the situation prevented him from asking this question at that time later on it should have occurred to him that it was weird that DY was there to see him in SR's bed that morning. He meet with DY several times after this incident and it would have been natural for him to ask her why she was there. But I guess in the "TUF" universe it's to much to ask that a boyfriend and a girlfriend compare notes an a important matter. Many of SW's lies would have been revealed in the past if they did this before so I guess the writers can't allow this to happen. Even if they don't talk about it together this question should have raised doubts in both of their minds of what really went on for DT to wind up in that bed. They should have seen that it was only arranged by SW/SR in order to further break them up. But I'm not a member of club "Dumb and Dummer" from the characters point of view all of my assumptions are probably completely ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anbud Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 the translated version.. DT enters his home, HR asked his if he was on a date with SR. he mumble oh. JR took that to mean he was on a date, and told DT , she is going to meet SR parents. DT in shock, JR said she is going to discuss DT engagement with SR parents..DT stating he is not ready for that as yet . why are you rushing it .? JR got shot down by the grandpa. ... grandpa trying to get HR/YJ to have babies. Yj sigh.. lolol JR followed Dt to his room. trying to guilt him. omg i laughed so loud while watching and typing this. still laughing , when JR told DT that SR parents must've raised her to be very virtuous..lolol.. smart brains KC came to try to get SJ to go back home with him, cause his parents and him was so worried.. SJ refuse, what if she cause his daughter to faint again she said she feels comfortable where she is.. KC tired to follow SJ when she walked away, and MS stopped him,and said it is important that SJ feels comfortable when she is pregnant.. MS said he will take care of her so KC should go home. convo between JR/SW JR asked if something was wrong between her and YJ.. SW said no did Yj said something.. JR said No., she notice things was awkward between them. Jr by the way did you talk to your parents about the engagement?SW - I've been busy to talk to them .JR- your father must be busy as he just launched a cosmetic brand. I hope I'm not putting too much pressure on them. SW -- A cosmetic brand ? JR hmm yes there was an article about it . did you not know? SW_ ah i think i heard about it .

jimb Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 My non-Korean speaker's take on the Korean language version of episode 120: # SW opens the doo to what she has come to regard as her apartment. The apartment's real tenant enters. The Real Lee Sera is thrilled and happy to see SW. Real Lee Sera is effusive. SW is awkward and shifty. # Grandfather, Juran, HR and YJ are having coffee in their living room. They talk about DT and SW. # DT arrives home. HR greets him with the latest news about his relationship with SW. She is trying to hurry them along. Look how well a rushed and forced marriage worked out for her and YJ. # DT endures HR but when Juran starts in, DT is shocked and surprised. DT protests. Grandfather supports his protest. Juran looks deflated. # DT goes upstairs to his bedroom. Juran follows him. # HR chats happily with Grandfather, who likely is encouraging her to make a baby. YJ reflects that it takes two to make a baby and contemplates the project without enthusiasm. YJ stirs nervously and grimaces. # Juran and DT are in his bedroom. Juran hectors DT, who looks discouraged. She wheedles. He resists. She barks a command and departs. # YJ and HR are in their bedroom. HR rattles on, likely about what Grandfather said. YJ is weary and subdued, likely because of what Grandfather said. # SA is in her house remembering something MS said. She is sad. She encounters DY's mother and attempts to humor her. DY walks in on their conversation. # DY's mother leaves the room and DY and SA converse. # SA and DY retire to DY's bedroom. SA gives DY Sage Advice. DY tells SA something that shocks her. SA is distressed. # MS calls KC to inform him that Big GJ is at his house. # There is more thrashing about on the KC-Birth Mother-Big/Little GJ front. The Gu family is involved. MS is involved # KC appears at MS's house and begs Big GJ to return to his house. Big GJ wisely declines to do so. MS sends KC on his way. # .The sun rises over Seoul. # YJ's parents are talking in their store. YJ's mother comes up with a bright idea. YJ's father loudly informs her that it is not a bright idea. YJ's mother phones HR. YJ's father was right. # YJ's mother and HR meet at the Gu residence. CJ walks in and overhears HR describing SW's conquest of DT. CJ is surprised. The two women notice CJ and become uncomfortable. CJ leaves quickly. YJ's mother yells after him. The two women continue to chat and giggle. # HR's somehow finds a reason to rant about DY. The conversation between the two women becomes increasingly uncomfortable. # SW is in the Real Lee Sera's apartment talking with the Real Lee Sera, who is leafing through some papers. Bills? Perhaps not, since the Real Lee Sera seems more cheerful than not. More cheerful than SW, too. Real Lee Sera says "Don't worry" in English. Does SW understand? SW looks worried but reprieved. SW departs. # The Real Lee Sera is in her apartment a few seconds later when the door chimes ring. It is CJ, who has somehow not run into SW on her way out. The Real Lee Sera and CJ do a mutual "Who you?" They argue until the proverbial light bulb in CJ's forehead flashes "On." He departs, leaving the Real Lee Sera bewildered. # CJ stands on the street and ponders. Something smells fishy. Which woman is the fish? # The Office Gossip Duo has convened. They subside just as DT walks in. DY walks in and, seeing DT, lifts her eyes heavenward. DT summons DY to his office. DY sighs in disgust. DY departs and the gossip duo reconvenes. # DY enters DT's office. Their encounter is professional but strained. DT takes a brief phone call in her presence. What she hears makes her unhappy. His further explanation makes her unhappier. # DT and DY encounter YJ in a corridor. They caucus uneasily. DY shoots each of the men a resentful look before walking off with DT. # YJ sits at his desk looking puzzled. Mr. Han walks in and bows much lower than necessary. YJ barks an order. Mr. Han exits as Mr. Choi enters. The Directors are revolting. And they also don't like the cost overruns on the China project. YJ asks Mr. Choi to set up a meeting with the dissident stockholder, a "Mr. Han" YJ does not register the fact that the dissident stockholder and his go-for are both named Han. # YJ enters Juran's office and they talk. Juran invites YJ to a meeting with "Mr. Kang" and YJ declines. That's the second identical last name that's popped up today. "Mr. Kang." Kang DanYi.. "Mr. Kang." Kang DanYi. # SW enters Juran's office as YJ is leaving. YJ registers SW's presence in Juran's office. SW registers that YJ has registered her presence in Juran's office. He gives her a Look. She bows uncomfortably as he departs. # Juran has registered that YJ and SW were registering. Juran asks, what's the problem? No problem, SW explains. # Juran reiterates that she Really. Wants. To. Meet. The. 'Rents. Juran's office is becoming less fun for SW. # Juran cuts to the chase. The Mogul Mr. Lee is launching a new line of cosmetics. She would like to Talk. With. Him. About. It. Oh yes, and the engagement too. SW squirms and recovers. # SW receives a call on her cell phone which she does not answer. Juran remembers that the same thing happened during SW's last visit to her office and asks her about it. SW claims that the call is spam, as she receives a text from SA. SA is on her way to Bonjour to pull down some pillars. SW stifles an aigoo! and is suddenly eager to return to work. # SA speaks briefly with DY's mother and heads for Seoul. # SA has an awkward conversation with the Village Representative on her way out. He is shocked by something she says. # MS and GJ enjoy a meal at his house. Juran joins them, unexpected and uninvited. Juran is surprised to find GJ there. GJ leaves them alone. They argue as they usually do. She tries to leverage her pressure on DT to marry SW into pressure on MS to remain married to her He does not submit. Juran cries. # DT has insisted that DY join him for lunch but she is not hungry. She tells him two lies: SA is a good person; she wishes them well in their engagement. DT is like, everyone knows about this engagement but me. # DT leaves DY in the corridor to return ho his office. SW, who has been observing from around the corner, gallops up to DY. SW calls DY into the break room for a Talk. Nice to see the writers spicing up the script with something new and unusual. # SW ups her ante. DY must not only not reveal SW's identity. DY must quit her job. Or SW Will. Kill. Herself. The prospect of SW's death seems to bother DY more than it should. # SW enters DT's office and asks him where he was. She does not make a scene, but it is clear that one is in the offing if she "catches" DT with DY again. SW invites DT to have dinner with her. He acquiesces. # SA steps to DT and SW as they enter Bonjour's lobby. SA looks determined. DT looks awkward because he is ashamed. SW looks awkward because she's just been cornered.

Guest Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 @jimb, I just realized that I read your recaps because your commentary bits are so funny. It's good that I know who the underlying characters are so that I have a proximate idea of what you're talking about, but not sure that would really matter. Have you done these non-Korean speaker's recaps of Korean dramas before? I'm kind of curious whether I would find them as funny or funnier if I didn't know the underlying annoying story. 30 more episodes to go...

I'm just curious as to whether DT and SW actually get engaged, get married, have actual intimate relations, mostly because I don't think they're the end game still, but I'm a little curious how far these writers will push it before splitting them up. But, not too curious because I have a hard time caring about these characters. Also, since I don't have faith in these writer's ability to tell a good story, but they are good at designing hook endings, so pretty sure that SA is not going to do anything in the next episode. Nor will CJ actually do anything with his suspicions about SW. *shrug* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are right; SA didn't go to Bonjour to confront SW and expose the truth but she only managed to issue one final warning before returning home. There are 30 more episodes to fill out so the writers need to drag and hold on to the stupid SW lies probably for another week. From the preview, it looks like a bored LSR went to visit SW at work and also to tell her about the strange visit CJ paid her earlier. And while in a cafe, SW had the opportunity to overhear YJ's 'delicious' conversation with president Kim. Will SW make use of this information she accidentally obtained in her favor in the near future? I bet. I foresee SW being exposed during her engagement with DT next week. Since CJ is the only one to have seen/met the real LSR, I reckon he will bring the real LSR to witness the engagement and that's where and how the real identity of SW will be revealed. Don't even get me started on DY...she is a real disappointment. DT and DY are currently our 'Done and Donner'... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimb Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 So who is this "Mr. Kang" Juran is going to meet? Are we in "Birth Secret" territory. And why isn't YJ showing more curiosity about potential links between Han team leader and Han stockholder? Where did Mr. Choi, who services the Board of Directors and recruited Mr. Han/ team leader for YJ, find this Han? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
