hahahahaha...I kinda want to be present if you ever meet Kang Ha Neul.  

Of course i will be a mess if i ever meet KHN, all fangirling!!! i first saw him in Misaeng and he was the man that catched my eyes  but i'm not talking about KHN, I'm talking about Wook... and if i were Soo i don't think i would fall for his looks only: 1) So's looks are way better than Wook's, 2) In RL i don't fall for pretty faces, i usually get tired of them, i rather have brains and personality... so yes, i would react like a teenager in front of KHN but no, i wouldn't fall for Wook

Lol..what to do with you(am laughing about that cancelled small text).

How to defend myself? When you watch him in dramas crying you feel like it's for real... and you still find him pretty, because lets admit it, he looks pretty even when crying. so when he cries in RL is the same thing, it's only that you know the pain is real so you hurt more for him, but that doesn't make you blind... just a little guilty for being so shallow. sigh. On a more serious note, let me thank you for your insights about their relationship... but yes, he's so reserved about his private life. not that i'm complaining, i think that's the best for him!

Fangirling observations and definitely-not-a-review thingy of MLSHR - Episode 4 (Part - 2)

 

Heheh your partner in crime is right here! 

I love how So was quoting Soo already saying “hold more responsibility the higher you are”. 

 

Don’t they say something like how you fall in love with the person who you saw the first now with, just saying.  He stares again – what lovely smile  – and gets caught again!

 

You know, for someone who is supposed to not do a review but just fangirling observations you are very detailed and i love and agree with everything you wrote.. your comments about So/Queen Yoo scene really got me... and that comment you highlighted i never thought of that. So far Soo is already shaking all So's beliefs and changing him for a better person... or let me correct myself (because i don't think people change) it's just that all the good things in Soo are surfacing..

Lol that first snow scene reminded me of Virgin Snow and... that you fall in love with the person you saw the first snow with!

Maybe that's why he calls us his angels??? Since we are killed by his perfection and have become angels even without realizing it ourselves????

I have forged ahead and watched MLSHR up to episode 15 but now I can't bring myself to watch the last 5 episodes knowing I am going to be crying my eyes out   I will have to watch it slowly scene by scene and take some breaks in between .

 

Congrats to those who are getting the limited edition package "Thank You Again", I procrastinated and missed the deadline .

Oh.. i understand you can't help it and watched almost everything, but please comment with us as we are slowly getting to episode 15, and when we are there maybe you'll be able to watch and we could have a cry fest  (btw i already cried a lot, specially in episode 4!)

It's still available for order... so.... hurry!!!!!!

http://thankyouagain.co.kr/

Thanks. I guess they changed the site after the release date for more orders.

[pixelsticks]

I apologize for being MIA for a bit.  RL is hitting hard and I just got a breather for a bit.  I was hoping for a JG IG post or some nibbles of new info.  But not to be. 

 

@hiluna Yes, please put in your thoughts about the episodes!!  And have fun ordering!!

I was thinking the same thing.  You have some very astute observations and I love how you even keep finding continuity errors (hair issues, light issues, etc)  I apologize for not getting my post up earlier to help you ....but you don't need my help!!

That was one of the first things I heard when I started watching Kdramas.  And you see these types of scenes often!

Hopefully more hot kisses, assuming it’s a cycle. 

Yes.... I just finished Ruler:Man of the Mask and there wasn't even 1 damn kiss. Lots of pretty love words, but just frickin hugs!  I wanted to throw a pillow at the tv. I may need to start SWWTN to make up for that travesty.

He seems so humble and sweet in real life.  I just wanted to see how he would defend Wook if you told him what you felt of his character.

MLSHR – Scarlet Heart Ryeo (Dramafever Director’s Cut)

Episode 4 - Mother’s Little Helper (Even when she doesn't appreciate it)-Rolling Stones

Pixelistic Re(Take) Ramblings - Spoilers ahead!

 

• Quick recap of the troubles in the Palace and onto what we WANT to see.  Wang So emerge from the shadows!! Dripping in blood, almost giddy in his approach, expecting affirmation and hearing this….”Hearing you call me Mother makes my skin crawl.” <<<ouch ouch ouch>>> But to even add more insult to his injury…she adds “you are not my son” <<<this biotch sure knows how to hurt a guy>>> We learn more about what he had to deal with under the Kangs in Shinju, stories that would make any caring person cringe and empathize, but Queen Yoo holds to her “don’t give a crap” stance.  “You are my shame, disgrace & flaw.” And there it is.  He is her constant reminder of that night when she lost to the King.  But she doesn’t have the last word.  Wang So let’s her know he plans on staying put and becoming someone she cannot ignore.
• 8:20 Wang So at the prayer stones. Angry at his mommy and the world. Yelling and knocking them down. Enter Hae Soo. At first, concerned over the stone towers, then changes her concern to Wang So himself.  Wang So hears his first words of true concern from anybody in Songak.  He almost cannot handle it.  Her words get rid of his anger, but leave him in a sorrowful mess, kneeling and crying.
• 11:39 Smirking Queen Yoo (oooh I hated her now- nice choice to put her smirking face as the first scene after Wang So’s sorrow- but I'd rather see her like this --->).  King Taejo tries to get to the bottom of what happened. He is told the Monks and the Temple belonged to Queen Yoo.  Yo & Yoo look like they might be in trouble , but Wang So admits to orchestrating the “Temple of Doom” and Wook infers that someone is trying to get the Royals to turn on each other. Even though the biotch ditched him last night, he still came to her rescue today. She is surprised, but is she moved? <<<no>>
• 13:40 Here comes some comedy again. The palace maids fight over who has to deliver food to the 4^th Prince. <<me, me….I’ll do it>>> Lady Hae has to scold them and finds the only one who will do it, Hae Soo .  Wang So is hilltop, sitting on a rock overlooking the palace. Hae Soo is exhausted climbing to his perch and finds him uncharacteristically calm and lonely. He notices her and tries to be grunt. She notices him and tries to be nice.
  And here we go again, Wang So asks her to forget what she saw…she even mumbles that you constantly ask me to forget all the time. So she changes the subject. But when the discussion gets a little too deep, they both deflect like mad! <<<from the BTS, I wonder what other dialogue they had in these scenes that were cut…they filmed them eating chicken together, etc>>>
• 17:39 It is dark now…and it makes you wonder how long they spent together on that hilltop. <<<wink wink>>> The light joyful music plays….her struggles to carry the basket, his struggles to decide whether to be helpful or not…. ahhhh my heart!  @bluelilac1214..yes that WS smile here????  Stuff that dreams are made of. 
• 18:45 Lady Hae is having a bad night. She knows it and tells Wook to take a second wife. It’s a painful scene watching a woman talk to the man she loves but knows he doesn’t truly love her. How painful it is to love a man who cannot love you the way you want.  I loved me some Lady Hae.
• 20:57  Prince Eun finds Hae Soo lamenting over the fact that men take more than 1 wife in this time. He tries to woo her with toys.  She accidentally woos him with questions. He wasn’t ready to take a wife but after that conversation, I think he has picked his candidate!
• 23:18 Chae Ryung gets conned into returning the 4^th Prince’s butterfly brooch. Princess Yeon Hwa finds her and has her whipped. Hae Soo steps in and when she cannot reason with her, she offers her back to be whipped. Yeon Hwa almost cannot believe her luck! She gleefully starts to wallop Hae Soo when the Princes come around. 
  Look at each one’s expressions!  All are in horror except Yo and Won, who halfheartedly tries to suggest it is enough. And then the wrist grab.  Wang So…”that’s enough now” <<<you already had my heart….>>> She belongs to me? I was actually surprised at that statement as well, with my supposed modern lady sensibilities.  I almost fully expected Hae Soo to let him have it right there, but she was surprised and confused and luckily the other Princes stepped in to stop it. It was here where the brief look between Chae Ryung and Won was the only hint you had at their relationship until the last episodes. <<<again, how much of this relationship is on the cutting room floor>>> Yeon Hwa saw that the princes are starting to care for Hae Soo. She even wonders about Wang So’s intentions. He could have been mean here, but he says “I’m sorry if I have disrespected you.” And the hand clenched close up! <<<got to have those in every Korean drama>>>
• 29:30 This is when I knew the bromance would NEVER happen.  Even after Wook knows that Wang So saved Hae Soo, and saved his own mother, took full responsibility for the killings, and saved Crown Prince Moo….he still doesn’t like him. Why the HELL NOT???? <<<too much of a threat to your manhood Wook???>>> He calmly threatens Wang So that neither Yeon Hwa or Hae Soo are his to claim and he better leave HIS ladies alone.  <<<btw…great close-ups of 2 handsome actors here!!!!>>>
• 30:30 Wook visits Hae Soo at her bedchamber. He even asks her to forget what happened today.  <<<wtf!!>>> Here is where I get worried.  Hae Soo runs out to find him.  He makes a promise <<<>>> LIAR!!! Is he really going to stand up for her now?>>>
• 34:30 <<<one of my all time fave scenes!
  This was on repeat a lot…I am ashamed to say>>> After the infamous head butt, and a bit of verbal sparring, Wang So finds that Hae Soo doesn’t fear him and respects him in a way…but he better not dare say she belongs to him.  He finds that quite amusing and gets in her face…and asks her if he should call her “my person.”  <<<such a flirt WS! Side note: I loved the fact that the camera operator framed each person in the irises of the one on screen!!>>> Even the music is perfect here. Ahhh this scene. <<off to watch this youtube clip again>>>
• 36:27 Jung street fighting again. But this time, he gets dragged away by thugs. But not before Hae Soo & Chae Ryung witness. Even Wang So sees Hae Soo run off. The thugs almost cut off Jung’s arm when Hae Soo grabs her courage and runs into battle, cussing, threatening and waving her bamboo stick!   <<<ahhh the comedy>>> And yes @bluelilac1214…I did also ask what took WS so long to arrive?  Was he having fun watching it all unfold? Got lost in the woods? 
• 38:57 Queen Hwangbo, Wook & Yeon Hwa discuss Lady Hae . In a brief moment, we get to see the motivations of each character about the future of their family status. Enter Chae Ryung to say Hae Soo is in trouble…not Jung?  <<<huh???>>>
• 39:53 Jung is still an unaware idiot! Enter Wook…who single-handedly takes out the thugs in quite the dashing fashion.  <<<I almost could fall for you Wookie…>>> He gets surrounded yet again, but this time Wang So comes to the rescue.  Look at Hae Soo’s face. <<<I bet a bit of her wanted to say, YES I belong to you at this time>>> She is so relieved that she hugs Jung and then remembers this is not the Goryeo way. It’s so fun to watch her hug another man when the two men who want her are looking on. And look at how they react. Wook doesn’t look thrilled.  So looks amused. And Jung wants to protect and impress her!
• 44:18 Wook is a pissed man. Hae Soo plays the injured card to reach him. And finds he was scared shitless that she was really hurt.  He tries to kiss her but other people show up. Wook storms off. Question:  Why hasn’t it been thought of to have Hae Soo be Wook’s 2^nd wife already?  To keep faith with the Hwangbo clan. To allow for an heir etc?
• 46:45 Jung & Wang So have a scene. These brothers just don’t see things in the same way.   And such unfortunate timing that Queen Yoo enters right when Wang So slaps Jung. She demands that Wang So never interfere with Jung again, even with Jung proclaiming it was So that saved him.  Wang So asks Jung when will he stop being their mother’s baby.  Jung is torn.     <--how poor Jung is treated by his mommy
• 49:10 Wook escapes on a horse to go cry in the forest. He WANTS   but doesn’t know how to GET.  Hae Soo also seems to WANT  but lays in bed. Wang So WANTS to be loved by his mother (he rebuilds the stone towers and cries) but knows it’s not going to happen.
• 51:15 Crown Prince Moo asks King Taejo to let Wang So be his person. <<<ahhh>>> King Taejo minces no words and tells So that your mother and brother aim for the throne so what about you?  Between JiMong, the stars and So’s promise…King Taejo declares that Wang So can stay in Songak!!!  Woot woot!!  His grace is immeasurable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
• 53:45 Seems Wook left his crying spot and came back home. Lady Hae is ever the grown up, unselfish person here. Inviting Hae Soo to dine with them and redirecting their attentions.
• 56:00 Hae Soo finds Wang So at the Prayer Towers and accuses him of destroying them again. He tells her he is actually rebuilding them. She is shocked. He tells her that he will be leaving to live in the palace.  They playfully banter a bit before she tries to give him her advice to not be so quick to temper and destroy things. <<<always lecturing>>> But then she becomes softer and hopes he will be able to sleep, eat and dream well in his new place. He is touched.  They marvel at the stars. They watch the snow fall. So cannot stop staring at her.  Wook cannot stop thinking of her. <<<geesh…lucky girl>>>

Episode 4 was filled with repeat-worthy scenes.  As evidenced by the many Dramafever youtube clips for this episode alone!!  JG showed us all the range of his acting in this one episode alone.  Devastating pain, tears, anger, flirting, strength, swagger, vulnerability.  Wang So is LOVE! Next episode...the tone starts to change....deep breaths....

Hello Kiotzo. If I'm not mistaken, when the payment window pop up, there is a little american/english flag in one of the angle of the window (I don't remember if it's at the top or at the the bottom). If you click that flag the payment method will be translated in english.

 

Hope it helps you

In addiction to the excellent guide that @LadyOne create , I would only add that if you didn't find your country after select "EMS", try with "EMS Premium".

Maybe I should call this O Caption, My Caption!  Caption this scene! What is WS saying in his head each time you see him?

I would like to reply to you in italian, using the Roman dialect, but I'm sure quite nobody will understand what I'll say.

 

It will sounds like "C'mon girl"... and then... "What she's doing? No way....", but in roman will have much more fun

OOhhhh  type it...I want to read it!

 

Question:  Was his "C'mon girl" supposed to tell her to walk ahead without carrying the basket but when he looked back and saw she was still trying to grab her skirts and get it done....that is where the little laugh comes from? What about that eyebrow raise before the vocal utterance?  It seems to be he's shocked.  Am I reading too much into all this??

For me he doesn't mean to tell her to walk without the basket but only to move fast... and He wasn't shocked... only surprise in my opinion... perhaps he never saw a girl do something like this until that moment  :P
