Iubire cu Încurcături Episode 8 Reacţii
Really liked this episode. While I like the male lead (I know he's prickly at first, but once you peel the layers...) For me, the second lead Kim Shin Hyeok steals the show! his character and acting are so cool, my fav moments are all when he's on screen.

I'm a bit iffy with the male lead, he's a real ass 60% of the time and I'm not sure if his other 40% makes up for it (though his smile is gorgeous!). she deserves SO much better, honestly wouldn't mind if she ends up with the second lead (likely not going to happen).

I personally prefer the frizzy hair.
About this episode, I like where the characters got. Hye Jin got a well deserved apology, Shin Hyuk setting it up for people to not stall anymore and actually take action, Ha Ri, though still torn between friendship and love, seems is getting to the point of realizing how stupid she'd been. Sung Joon realizing what an unfair person he can be at times and unprofessional.
Alright half way through the drama and I feel I've got a lot to say. First lets start with how work is presented in here. This isn't the first time I see this in kdramas, but it still gets me speechless. You have the heroine taking an entry position in a company. While newbie and inexperienced, somehow she gets to do the most important jobs which the company's reputation/survival is at its stakes, or you have them responsible for the most important part, that is the centre of everyone's work. And all the responsibility falls on the shoulder of said employee, while really any failure would should be the responsibility of the one delegating the tasks (the manager). I know working environment isn't perfect, and not always ethical (as in where I work right now). There are some basics that makes the whole situation beyond unreasonable, but along the lines of unbelievable.
That is just something I had to let out. Next is my view of all 4 leads.
Sung Joon: I still find his initial interaction with Kim Hye Jin distasteful, and I find him wayyy too obsessed about his childhood love. Otherwise I enjoy the way the character is presented. Rather than naturally cool, you can tell it's someone who wasn't always confidant but had to fake it until he made it. This has nothing to do with him being overweight as a kid, but more about his clumsiness that still hasn't left him to this day, and the way he tries to hide it. Someone naturally cool would laugh is off, but he really takes it seriously, which makes it even funnier. As a professional, I get his point and so agree with him, but the way he tries to get it across, lets just say, sucks. He's just not good at being a people manager. If he wants to lead, he needs to stimulate his employees, and treat them like capable, because motivation is key for any organization to work. He only mentions the bad and brushes off the good as "the least to be expected" which just brings people down.
Ha Ri: She got a lot of hate for her actions and I understand it, but I don't see her as the worst, even if her actions are border line nasty. The thing is, I actually believe in her friendship with Hye Jin, and never found it manufactured. I don't this the "befriending the uglier friend" applies here. They've been friends from Hye Jin's pretty days. I think not "teaching her friend to dress up in an attractive way" or stuff like that isn't because of some conspiracy from Ha Ri, but from the usual writers going overboard with Hye Jin not being "attractive". So if her friendship with Hye Jin is real, what did she do this? Because she was abandoned by her dearest people and hasn't learned how precious such relationship is. Now is that a valid excuse? Of course not! I also think pursuing Sung Joon itself isn't wrong, because really, since when does childhood love give claims of one person over another when there is really no such relationship in the present. If only she'd at least told Hye Jin about it, it would've made all the difference. Besides, it's such a stupid lie. The more time passes, the deeper she's digging her grave :P
Hye Jin: I get it, she has a good heart, is hard working, does what is told to do, been out of touch with fashion for a while now, and is very expressive and loud. The way though everyone treats her like an ugly duckling doesn't make much sense. So what her hair is frizzy and she has natural blush? Truth is she's still pretty. And if in Korean standard that's not pretty, and if she really believes in those standards, a little bit of straightening and foundation would've done the trick. That's coming from the laziest person on this planet when it comes to those things. Like who doesn't wear makeup when they go out anyway? If not for looks, overall, even the way she dresses isn't bad, but it's just very casual and not professional, which makes her look out of place in the office. Basically I find the way they drew her persistently "natural" and all, this whole sudden change in style just doesn't make sense. It's just that, if that was her biggest problem, why the hell wait until now to change? I don't have a problem with the way her character is interpreted, but more the way the character is treated by all, as if it's all normal.
Shin Hyeok: No complaints, just perfectness! I just love how upfront he is about everything (weird since he's actually hiding the biggest secret). I love that his feelings for Hye jin came one step at a time, and how he notices her good heart and falls for that. I also love how he's still easy going and fun despite the complicated situation he found himself in. It's also understandable that he feels both frustrated by people now being as upfront as he is, but can't do anything about it. It is their problem after all and him revealing things is not his place and wouldn't solve the problem.

I've really really been enjoying She Was Pretty, but I think this episode has been my personal favorite so far. While the show has been light hearted and funny for the most part, there's been the issue of Ha Ri (STILL) pretending to be Hye Jin. But things are finally looking up! I love how Seong Jun has started to figure things out and Ha Ri and Hye Jin (hopefully) both seem to be ready to tell the truth in the near future. Either way, all the lies are about to come apart.
Throughout the episode I was thinking that it would end with Ha Ri, Seong Jun, and Hye Jin all running into each other and Seong Jun finally figuring out what's going on. But the transformation was so much better! We've already seen Seong Jun falling for Hye Jin while she wasn't "pretty," so I can't wait to see what will happen now! I'm going to do a major face palm if that knucklehead STILL doesn't put the pieces together.
It looks like episode 9 is headed in a good direction!
