[Drama 2016/2017] The Legend of The Blue Sea 푸른 바다의 전설

I love the first and last parts of EP 15, great acting from both JJH and LMH. The museum scene where HJJ made up happy ending and SC shed a tear was touching. I generally don't like "try-hard sentimental" scenes in some of the dramas/movies. The moments of silence and subtle sadness can touch me deeply.

Cuteness is overloaded...making me smile and giggle :) I think I re watch out OTP scenes multiple times. I have no complain with 20 episodes full of our OTP bickering, skinship, SC's crazy antics and HJJ's jealousy. But because the drama has chose to add thriller and mystery elements, I want that parts to be properly deal with as well.

@mythicalove completely agree. I want to have a satisfying ending, not just the romance but the story as a whole. While most people are happy with the OTP, their acting and chemistry, the main criticism I read online is the lack of compelling villains and threats. It upsets me because it's not the actors's faults, more with the writing. I hope the writer has put enough thoughts to give us good stories of the bad guys. Motivation for killing( MDY and KJ) or sudden change of behaviour (CH case) should be explained in the next episodes.

@CarolynH Number 3: I hope the writer comes up with a decent explanation why HJJ's mother left him without any contact. I find it's hard to accept that any mothers would just leave her son because of her husband's betrayal. 

Sorry if I sound like a broken record, more criticizing than praising. I love LOTBS, JJH and LMH. That's why I want it to be perfect badly.

Hello Lobsters!

@1ouise:  Thank for the additional category.  I have 15 so far.

I agree @gentlelily12:  LMH is the total package.  He's just not a pretty face; there are lots of little things (for me it's that cute shyness that creeps in his interviews) that keep us glued to him.

I still have not read all the posts from ep 14 and 15, so I hope my questions have not already been answered.  

1.  Why did the Dr lie when asked if MDY visited him recently?

2.  did HJJ's mother leave him at the Tower of Hercules or when she left the family home?

3.  Am I the only one not able to forgive HJJ's mother?  I can accept that HJJ lived with the father if she believed that the father can give him the best education, secure home yada yada...  But, for the mother not to continually try to contact him or try to find out how HJJ was coping?  Sure, she placed a couple of calls to the the Dept Head Nam's wife, but why didn't she call DH Nam directly and try to arrange a mtg?  I said earlier that the aquarium is where he went on his birthday hoping to see her, why couldn't she go?  According to DH Nam's wife, the mother stopped calling once she heard HJJ supposedly went abroad to study.  Why?  Wouldn't she still want to know how her son is doing?  

4.  Not a question, but I did find it funny when the fashionista came to HJJ"s house for SC's B-day party, Nam Do put something under her so her rear would not touch the couch.  lol

 

 

I have no idea why doc lied, we need to see more flashbacks 4 that.

 she left him at Hercules.

I don't think she wanted to leave her son but she's forced.

I missed that scene I remember he talked to her...

Hiya Lobsters!

Soompi awards:  I did my duty and voted for everything LBS!  I wish it listed the percentage in addition to who is 1st, 2nd and 3rd.  

HJJ's father needs a class in sensitivity.  Don't start talking about HJJ when CH comes to visit, or at least thank CH for coming to visit.  Hello?!  I think anyone would be hurt.

I've mentioned that I'm also following LBS on my local SBS station.  Ep 9 and 10 aired last week.   to my dismay, HJJ's drunk scene was cut, I assume because they had to fit in the commercials.:tears:  I was disappointed because it's one of my favorite scenes!

Thats what they meant by hot love? I thought it would be sizzling and steamier...

now i dont know what to expect with dirty love lol

I also hope we get some explanation next episode (which we will i think) with regards to mom leaving Joon ( i like calling him joon, reminds me of joon pyo hehe) then go into hiding. Mom seems to be feisty but it bugs me that she didn't even fight for her marriage and family. 

Right now, I couldn't care less about dad. He ruined his marriage and allowed Joon to leave the house and didn't even so much as contact for 10 years until he decided he's ready to give off some inheritance??? Hmph 

That said, cant wait for the preview to come out today!

Hi :))

LOLLL :D  I agree with you!! 

I was actually waiting for HOT love to come! :D I think we cannot expect more from Kdramas in regards to "Hot Love". But the way they talked about hot love in the previous articles, I really expected "hot love" :D  This is Kdrama after all! :)) We all know to what extend they go.

recently start to watch this LOBS and fall in love with the actors. LMH and JJH are great actors and that's what makes this drama so attractive. I admire JJH's dedication to her career, she is really fit for this role and makes LMH shine even more.

A lot of post/pictures all about LMH, he is great! but a project cannot be successfully without a great partnership of OTP. love them both and love to see them on screen. The screen love them. They make each other shine with their experience acting skills. Cannot believe that this drama will be ending in 3 weeks, little sad but very excited too.

looking forward to it!
