Well, I have to agree with most reviewers: amnesia? . Then again, I am so relieved that he is not dead and there's (I hope) not enough time to make the kind of ending where they're not together until they reincarnate… my most hated kind of ending. Although amnesia is too common a trick, I gave this ep. a 9 because it was very entertaining from beginning to end. The amnesia is giving rise to really tender moments between them--she struggling with her decision to let him go, him struggling to figure things out and feeling this great light missing from his life… awwww. And it really seems that we'll get quite a bit of action in the final few eps, as they still have to make Han Na compete for him, Secretary Kim to show his true colors (how exactly did he end up in this messy situation?), resolve Kan Woo's situation, and most importantly understand WHAT ever happened to Jong Won way when. The pace is picking up quite nicely and I cannot wait for the next episode, an excitement which in the end is what dramas are all about.

Just as I was enjoying the ride knowing something big was about to happen, they went and put in City Hunter's soundtrack. Perhaps I am the only one, but to have the (excellent!) music to some of the most poignant scenes of City Hunter suddenly pasted into this show totally threw me off balance. While I am enjoying the show, I could not help but think how much better those dramatic scenes were in City Hunter. So when the shock was delivered at the end of the episode, I was already upset (by the music, rather than the action) and now I am really hoping that he's one of the special comatose apparitions, because I am getting sick of all these series where lovers can only reunite in some other life or whatever. I was not expecting this kind of thing to come, especially this early in the show… Anyway… I'll get over it by the time the new installment comes, and finds me waiting at the edge of my seat ready to tackle it without the subs.
