Lol why is this show so graphic these days? but SO GOOD. I love Kim Tae Hee sfm. Her scenes have been more intense than most of the action sequences. She adds a lot of strength and warmth to Yeo Jin that aren't in the writing imo.

ikr, I wasn't expecting Kill Bill-style roaring rampage of revenge from a network kdrama but these last couple of eps made me feel the way I would have felt if the Bride had woken up out of her coma and basically forgotten all about any kind of revenge.

(on a smaller scale, that is).

but... she's been a coma for three years? why would that happen? people would complain it's unrealistic and the show would've ran out of steam by now.

I actually like that she do not want revenge but opt to do that instead after she listened to her father's last words. There's no turning back right now since she will go hard on her brother after this.

But I agree on the pace. It shocked me how the writer hold and prolong the plot since the last 4 episodes. :O
