It works all too well, because if your bestie can’t read you, who can? First, Seo-joon uses this as leverage, feigning interest in Joo-kyung at school just to press all of Soo-ho’s buttons (and press them hard). So, Seo-joon witnessed the rain/bandage moment between Soo-ho and Joo-kyung, and quite rightly sees that Soo-ho has feelings for her. She’s drenched by the rain, her glasses are all fogged up, and she’s at her most broken, crying to Soo-ho that, “It’s not my fault I’m ugly.” This is when Soo-ho finally sees that what he has been doing was unkind to her, and we get a moment of wound-tending tenderness, which will always be a favorite expression of dramaland affection to me.īut the Soo-ho/Joo-kyung relationship isn’t the only one that deepens and undergoes change this week - we also see a lot more of Seo-joon this week, which calls for a giant “Yay!” The more we see of his character, the more I like him, and the backstory about the death of the boys’ idol friend, and Seo-joon’s devotion to his mother, colored in his character perfectly.Īlso, as an aside, Hwang In-yub is reminding me soooo much of Lee Jun-ki in his classic bad boy role in My Girl that it actually feels like a callback of sorts - and I love everything about it. When a group of boys torment her for her looks, Joo-kyung finally cracks. She can barely keep up the pace, never mind the charade, and the cruelty of people still follows her wherever she goes. Ack! Turns out Soo-ho watched the performance secretly from the back, and that pretty much sealed the deal. Joo-kyung’s desperate errand-running and wish fulfillment reaches its peak when she does a sexy stage dance (to Hwasa, mwah!), thinking she’s at the school talent show - but is actually performing for all the teachers. What Joo-kyung doesn’t realize is that Soo-ho couldn’t care less about her bare face, and has no intention of revealing it - instead, he’s just getting a kick out of teasing and playfully tormenting her (like so many tsundere heroes before him). Joo-kyung scurries around in servitude so much that I was actually exhausted just watching her, but the dynamic is pretty entertaining, with so many funny dramatizations and graphics. But, in the meantime, what we have is a hilarious new dynamic between the two, where Joo-kyung practically becomes Soo-ho’s servant, hoping to convince him to keep her secret. (Importantly, she still doesn’t know that Soo-ho is the savior from the rooftop, so that should play out nicely later). Poor Joo-kyung, for all her desperate attempts to hide the secret, there’s no going back now. He saw the items, saw her post-it message, and boom: the truth is out. How did he figure out that “ugly” manhwa Joo-kyung is the same as “goddess” Joo-kyung at school?Ī flashback shows us that a second before Joo-kyung stole back the incriminating bag with manhwa and blazer, Soo-ho took a peek inside. Reeling from the emotions of the cake-face near disaster, it takes Joo-kyung a second to realize what this really means: that Soo-ho has somehow stitched together the truth she’s been trying so hard to hide. Our heroine will do whatever it takes to protect her secret, but where she finds herself is more wild than she ever expected: caught in the middle of the war between our two heroes. Our goddess is saved from potentially revealing her bare face at school, but a cake in the face is not the only drama she’ll have to deal with. 46 DecemDecemTrue Beauty: Episodes 3-4 Open Thread by missvictrix
