Re: K-Drama (SBS): 아름다운 날들 (Beautiful Days)
OK, I'll try my luck again.
Continuing episode 11:
Narae is running towards the Cafe where Sena is waiting, holding a brown envelope. She saw Sena thru the glass window and knock on it to get her attention. She told Sena that Victory is giving her a contract but Sena is still hesitant. Narae said Yonsoo's must have begged Director Lee to get that contract for her.
At Oh Junghun's place, Sunjae is playing the piano and thinking of the time when Sunchun throw his keyboard out of the window, the time Minji went berzerk while he and Myungja were preparing the memorial table, when Sunchun bragged to his friends about how proud he is of his son, Sunjae, when he and Minchul exchanged harsh words saying that he wished they were strangers instead of brothers. He ended up sobbing on his piano keyboard. Then Sena came in.
She asked him why he is not in school but Junghun said that he has become mute and not talking since this morning. Sunjae got up to leave but Sena said wait and showed him the contract from Victory. She told Sunjae that Director Lee drafted the contract for Yonsoo's sake. Sunjae didn't say anything but Junghun said "You must have some sister". Sena said she wouldn't sign the contract yet until she try somewhere else. Then showed a newspaper where Muse Records are hosting a singing competition in honor of Lee Youngjun, Sunjae's father. That made Sunjae pay attention and grabbed from Junghun the newspaper.
The next scene, he was walking towards the elevator. At the elevator, he remembered what Mimi said of his father, "When inspired, he'd run to the piano in the middle of a conversation. Looking at his hands on the keyboard, time would stand still". Sunjae took out from his wallet the business card that Mimi gave him. Fade out.
Minji and Kumsuk were at Victor's store and SM Lady asked why she haven't come lately. Yonsoo saw Minji and asked "What are you doing here?". Minji replied that this is her brother's company and she does not need any reason to come. SM Lady was surprised that Minji knows Yonsoo. Kumsuk told her that Yonsoo is a live-in tutor to Minji to which SM Lady couldn't believe. She said "You live with Director Lee? Minji told Yonsoo: I'll see you at home. Don't delay trying to grab a ride with Minchul".
Minji met Minchul in the hallway and asked him why he didn't come home last night. She asked him to buy her lunch but Minchul said he has a previous engagement. Then, he suddenly turned around and told Minji that he'll call her later.
Meanwhile, down at the store, SM Lady is bothering Yonsoo and wouldn't let her do her work. She was shouting and throwing CDs at Yonsoo. Then she bite her hand. Minchul came out and saw the whole thing going on. He approached SM Lady and Yonsoo who was down on the floor picking up the CDs. He told SM Lady: "Don't create a scene". SM Lady bowed and said "I'm sorry." Minchul looked at Yonsoo on the floor and said "I don't know what it is but keep it quiet" and walked on. SM Lady said: "What should I do. He must have seen everything". Minchul stopped and turned around, looked at Yonsoo, worried. Minji told him that he did the right thing. She said that if sided with her (Yonsoo), she would have acted obnoxious. Then Minchul told Minji: Let's have dinner tonight. I want to introduce you to someone. Minji said: Who? Minchul glanced at Yonsoo and said: You'll find out.
Narae came running, pulled Yonsoo up and said: What happened? in a loud voice looking around. "Who picked on onsoo? What's the matter, girls? SM Lady shouted back: It's me!
Next scene: Narae putting ointment on Yonsoo's hand, bitten by the SM Lady. Yonsoo was silent.
Narae: Yonsoo, if I was him, I would've behaved exactly the same. No one knows you two are dating, so what can he do?
Yonsoo smiled wryly: Are we dating?
Narae: What are you saying, you even spent a night together.
Yonsoo: I think we are but I don't know if he thinks that. It's as if he always has his shoes on his heart.
Narae: His shoes?
Yonsoo (nodding) Ready to run at a moments notice. Even when he enters my heart, he never takes his shoes off. I worry that his foootprint will be too great in my heart. That's my fear.
Narae: (sighing deeply) I'd better put this ointment on your heart. How can she bite someone like a dog? (looking at Yonsoo's hand).

Re: K-Drama (SBS): 아름다운 날들 (Beautiful Days)
Hello AGAIN BD Family
This is my umpteenth try. Lets see what happens. I almost forgot what i was going to say.
I felt badly for Sun Jae finding out about his real father in such a shocking way. Myungja got the courage to do this, only after seeing how miserable her son is over Sunchun's behavior toward him. I think Mimi being back in town was a major factor too. She explains to him that the reason she did this was so that he'd have a loving father to take care of him. I'm with Mimi on this one. She may have thought that, but it was also self-serving for Myungja. She tells him she didn't know how to raise a child by herself. I think, in honor of single mothers everywhere she should know, yes its hard, but not worse than living in a house where you're not welcome by two thirds of the population.
Up till now he knows something's off, but not what it is, or why. His siblings either treat him like crap or totally ignore him. Yes he's got a proud father and a doting mother, but the two who could really put him at ease have no use for him. The one lie Sunchun told Min Chul tainted all of their lives. That means that his whole life is a lie and everything he's believed to be true up till now is negated.
I love that Yon Soo was sarcastic with Min Chul when he pushed that envelope toward her at the restaurant. She asked if it was for the team manager. She got a laugh out of him. She let him know she didn't appreciate being sent on that little errand. I like that she spoke up and told him he needs to be more forthcoming with his feelings. She says she needs him to say when he's sad or mad. She tells him she wants to know what he's thinking. He tells her he can't promise her that, because he's not good at showing his feelings. They're going to have a lot of misunderstandings, because Yon Soo is very, very bad at reading him.
Their times together are always intense and intimate, whether good or bad. When he's with her he's totally there!!
He reaches over and takes her hand in his. Its a beautiful act and the most he can do being the way he is. Coming from him its a very big gesture.
I felt so sorry for him when he spots the picture. They're leaving the restaurant and they both look so happy. He's smiling and then he's not. He looks over at Yon Soo and she's smiling and when she sees his expression, she's not smiling anymore either. He looks as though he's been betrayed. He sees that life went on without him the night he left Yon Soo and Sun Jae there. He wasn't missed very much, because in the picture they're both smiling. If he's jealous of Sun Jae at all its just because he has the ability to put her at ease and make her comfortable. This is something Min Chul has yet to accomplish.
We see him at his office, lying on his couch still looking at that picture. Its really bothering him. I wonder what he's thinking. Sun Jae's a thorn in his side and Yon Soo seems clueless. But, doesn't he look great just lying there??
I have a lot more to say, but let's see how this works out.
I'll be back. Thanks for the great summary emceema. You did a great job.
Later

K-Drama (SBS): 아름다운 날들 (Beautiful Days)
Good Morning BD,
This is why I shouldn't watch ahead. I now don't know where episode 11 ended because I also watched 12. I couldn't help it but I don't think I'll do that again.
At the restaurant when Yonsoo tells Minchul that he needs to tell her when he's mad or sad or whatever, Minchul said he's not very good at expressing his feelings.
Well I for one do think his feelings whether sad or mad show right through, it's all in his reactions. How could Yonsoo never get it? She knows every single time when he's mad. She must mean she doesn't know what he's mad about. That's different. She's right there I guess although she has to be a bit naive to not ever know what he's mad about. It's always about Sunjae!!
And if she wants words from him, wait until she hears his rant when he catches her and Sunjae at Victory after dark. He spills his heart out to her here and SHE doesn't say a word! Now look who is not talking! Ha!! Okay, maybe that's the next episode so I'll end this.
When Narae came running to the cafe with the contract for Sena, I laughed so hard. Did you all see Narae jump 5 hurdles? LOL She is such a delight to watch in action. She gets all excited like a little kid. I love watching her in every scene she's in.
Smoochie, you think CJW is tall...the Narae actress is even taller! I wouldn't be surprised if she's near 6' herself. And you're right, even when CJW plays opposite a 6' tall actor, it makes him look not that tall anymore. I said that once before. Maybe that's why she's dressed down in a lot of her dramas, wearing sneakers.
That other actress who starred in All In, (LBH's real life love at one time,) is very short and I've seen her in quite a few dramas now. She is always wearing high heels or sandles with that high lift throughout the whole dramas. She has the opposite problem.
The manager lady bit Yonsoo because she found out that Yonsoo is living at Director Lee's house. I feel sorry for Yonsoo that she has to take all that bull from her.
When Minchul walks by and sees the commotion with all the cds scattered on the floor and an angry, yelling manager picking on Yonsoo making her pick all the cds up, he tells his sister immediately afterwards that he wants to have dinner and introduce her to someone.
I don't think he knew that the manager bit Yonsoo's hand but he does know that she likes him and is giving Yonsoo a hard time because of him.
Looks like this latest incident is Minchul's turning point in making Yonsoo openly his woman. Once she becomes his woman, he won't allow anyone to abuse her or talk down to her. This includes the manager.
He tells Minji he wants to introduce her to someone at this particular time looks like a spur of the moment idea. I don't think he likes seeing Yonsoo on the floor picking up purposely thrown CDs and having to take ugly orders from the manager. Minchul wants to rescue Yonsoo and he can do that once she becomes his woman.
I loved it when Minchul slowly reached over for her hand as he read the menu. A man of few words. Yes, he sees the photo with a smiling Yonsoo. He told her one time that he doesn't see her smile too often for him. It must hurt him to the core to see this photo.
That night when Minchul had to leave their dinner suddenly, he told Sunjae to take her home safely. Now he knows that Sunjae and Yonsoo did not go right home after he left. In fact, they stayed and even had a picture taken, both smiling, unlike when Minchul was there, no one smiled.
Minchul lying on the couch. When he is troubled he always goes to his office where he can be alone. I think Yonsoo is getting very close to making Minchul leave her. He never knows what's behind her and Sunjae's meetings and talks. What's he to think? Now there's this picture, proof of their close relationship. It doesn't look good.
Actually, Yonsoo telling Minchul to explain his feelings more when Yonsoo doesn't do a very good job at explaining her actions herself is kinda odd.
Anything that has to do with Sunjae, she keeps mum, even though Minchul gets upset with her. I guess I take his side because he doesn't go around with another girl on the side that might cause Yonsoo to wonder. Why is it alright for her to do this?
Great pictures of LBH and CJW together. Yes, check out her body language, she's leaning in towards him the whole time! LOL Who wouldn't?
Thanks so much emceema, for the summary.

Re: K-Drama (SBS): 아름다운 날들 (Beautiful Days)
Hello BD Family
Its only to be expected for Sun Jae to go to Mimi for all and any information about his real father and she's ready to tell him anything he wants to know. She shows him the tape of the singing contest from way back and its the first glimpse of his real father. If I were him, I'd be really angry with my mother.
Looks like Mimi has Victory Records right where she wants them. She has proof. Victory Records in this instance is Min Chul. I feel bad for him during their meeting. First he sees Sun Jae there and then Mimi hits him with the news. I'd say the guy is having a very crappy day.
Another shock to Min Chul, as though he hasn't had enough, is how Sun Jae speaks to him. When he gets back to his office he calls Sun Jae and tells him he wants to see him right away. When he gets to Min Chul's office he's reminded that he's been warned not to do any damage to Victory. He wants to know what he's doing at muse and what he hopes to accomplish with Mimi. Sun Jae tells him its none of his business and it doesn't have anything to do with Victory. He tells him he's leaving and for him not to call him like this again. As he's leaving Min Chul raises his voice and tells him he's not done talking. He tells him not to meet Mimi anymore, or he'll think he has bad intentions. Sun Jae tells him to think what he wants.
Of course Min Chul has no idea what's transpired yet. He knows nothing about his finding out about his "real" father. I guess Sun Jae doesn't think he has to respect Min Chul anymore as an older brother. This kid is going over the deep end. He's just found out life altering details and doesn't have the inclination for Min Chul to push him around right now. He runs into Yon Soo on his way out and ignores her though she calls out to him. He runs into his "father" in the Victory store and Sunchun asks him what he's doing there. He tells him not to come often and interfere with his studies. When he leaves DLAss tells him to send him abroad to study. Sunchun says he can't do that, he needs to keep an eye on him, especially with Mimi around.
I was not happy with the way Min Chul reacted to the team manager abusing Yon Soo, or I should say how he didn't react. I wonder if he'd have done better if Min Ji wasn't there. Yon Soo wasn't happy either. When she has that conversation with Narae she said exactly what I've been thinking. Are they a couple? How?? A few stolen moments? A one night stand? Where she had sex in her mind? I can't say I blame her for feeling that way.
These two are on totally different pages. She doesn't get his thing about Sun Jae and he never commits. Its like what comes first the chicken or the egg? I don't get why she doesn't get the Sun Jae thing though. All his feelings for Sun Jae are negative. Even though she knows nothing's happening, she also knows that Min Chul has no interest in nor affection for Sun Jae. Why wouldn't she get that he doesn't want to see her hanging around with him.
I've got a lot more to say,but can't say it now. I'll be back.

K-Drama (SBS): 아름다운 날들 (Beautiful Days)
Good Morning BD,
I didn't like how Minchul didn't chew out the team manager either but him saying "don't create a scene" is very much Minchul like though I would have at least expected him to order team manager to his office for a scolding.
He tells Yonsoo "I don't know what it is but keep it quiet." I would expect that he'd want to know what it is, but to me, I think he already does.
Above anything else, Minchul is running a business and he can't have a scandal. His relationship with Yonsoo is still a secret to the majority of the company's employees so he really can't react like he'd want to. Narae is absolutely right.
He always bends down to pick up a few cds or to help briefly when Yonsoo is having a hard time. It's his way of showing her he cares about what she's going through. But he abruptly always gets up and goes on his way because he has to keep his director's image intact also and not act personally with the employees.
He's the director after all and probably shouldn't even be involved in this petty stuff. But he always stops and offers a word. It's all he can do. What's in his heart is something he can't react to at work in front of others.
My way of thinking is he knows team manager likes him and she's not working with a full deck at times. She takes it all out on Yonsoo. Minchul knows this by the punishments she gives Yonsoo, making her stay after hours to work and other little things she does to annoy Yonsoo and just by the way she treats her in front of Minchul.
This incident is the beginning of the end for team manager. He doesn't say much in the store where he has to keep his cool, but with his dinner invitation to Minji to "meet someone," Minchul wants to put an end to Yonsoo's torment by team manager. He doesn't like seeing Yonsoo being abused ongoing. That's the way I see it because it's an immediate reaction to the situation when he tells Minji he wants her to come to dinner to meet someone.
There is a time very soon when Minchul tells Yonsoo he won't let anybody abuse or hurt her but now I don't recall at what point he said that. Minchul knows once it's out in the open that he and Yonsoo are a couple, all the abuse will end, he will never allow it.
It's this latest cd incident I believe that makes him want to declare his love for her openly. It's all in the timing and it's a spare of the moment thing inviting Minji to dinner to meet someone. I think he has had enough. Once Yonsoo becomes his woman, it's hands off for everybody, including Sunjae.
Sunjae has a lot of thinking to do now that he knows Sunchun is not his real dad. If he moves out he can play his music again. I wonder what he's thinking.
Mimi is luring him over to Muse little by little. I hold no grudges against her for telling Sunjae about his father, he has every right to know the truth. The description she gives of Young-jun fits Sunjae to a T. He is just like his dad.
Mimi is holding a competition in Young-jun's name. Of course Sena doesn't know anything about Young-jun but when she hands the flyer to Sunjae to see, he sees his father's name.
Sena is going to try out for this before signing Victory's contract. She doesn't want any chance to pass her by. Though she has Victory's contract in her hand, she's not happy because Minchul will not date it. She's not as stupid as she looks.
Things are heating up now. Minchul really loves Yonsoo and he wants to make her his. He's getting ready to put it all into motion. Yonsoo on the other hand is crying to Narae that she doesn't even know if they are a couple because Minchul always has his shoes on his heart.
He's thisclose to making them an official couple. What could go wrong?

Re: K-Drama (SBS): 아름다운 날들 (Beautiful Days)
Good Morning BD Family
I haven't read any posts yet today. I want to post first and see how close we come in our opinions. It should be interesting. Let's see how it works out.
When Yon Soo comes into Min Chul's office, I'm not sure if he sent for her or not. She opens by asking if something's happened with Sun Jae. Bad, bad move!! She goes on to tell him that Sun Jae didn't come home last night. She starts to tell him more, but he's had enough and stamps his foot. She asked for it. She'd just told him she wanted to know what he's thinking and feeling. Well, here it is. This is what he thinks. He tells her to stop!! He asks why she's so interested in Sun Jae's affairs. Because she seems so concerned, Sun Jae can't get clear of his feelings. And Once Again, she asks what he means?!!? This girls is one dumb bunny!!! He just said what he meant!!! What didn't she get???
Up till now he's tried to tell her in a subtle way and here he is spelling it out for her and she's still asking what does he mean. He slaps the picture into her hand. I don't think she knew he had it. I guess the night he took it from the restaurant, she never found out what wiped the smile off of his face. He tells her if she's interested in Sun Jae she should make herself clear. She looks at him as if he should know better. But, how?? How many ways can he show her? She sees it as innocent, but she's kidding herself. If she doesn't keep Sun Jae at a distance, she's just feeding into his feelings for her. Min Chul knows this, why doesn't she?? Again, one dumb bunny!!!
She turns to leave without saying a word, looking a little insulted. He stops her. I give him major credit for resilience. He doesn't want to end this conversation on this note. He tells her they're having dinner with Min Ji that night. 6PM at Treasure Island. She tells him she can't make it and for them to enjoy themselves. He tells her its important. She needs to be there. He tells her he wants to introduce her to Min Ji as his woman!! She looks stunned. He tells her not to be late. She doesn't say a word.
He tells her that from this day on he'll not allow anyone to mistreat her. He looks so resolved and satisfied at the same time. He says, "I won't make you cry or smile in front of anyone, but me". That's it!! He's commited. He tells her to go. She stands there looking at him as he goes back into his office. He doesn't look at her again. He stands with his back against the wall, thinking. She leaves after a few minutes. He looks up as she walks away, he watches her go. He smiles. As she walks out of his office she's excited and smiling. She just got what she's been waiting for. A sign that he's in this with her.
I think the incident with the team manager made him realize how vulnerable she was. He felt he couldn't say anything at that moment. I felt he should have, if only as a boss. He saw what happened. I still think Min Ji being there colored his behavior. He had to feel like crap after he walked away.
You'd think she'd know how important this night is and for her not to blow it, right? Well, stay tuned!!! ONE DUMB BUNNY!!!!!!!!
I'm at work, so I guess I have to work, a liitle. I'm going to read posts first.
I'll be back to talk more.

K-Drama (SBS): 아름다운 날들 (Beautiful Days)
I just want to comment on when Yonsoo goes to Minchul's office and asks about Sunjae. I have to tell you the second she said his name I thought she is one stupid lady. She never gives it up. She is so ridiculous it's tiring. Even right now I'm mad at her. Does she even have an IQ?
What man wants to constantly hear his woman worry about another man who has the hots for her? Why does she worry about Sunjae in front of Minchul when she knows Minchul's feelings about his brother? Why is she a worry wart when it comes to Sunjae?
When Michul stomped his foot, he should have stomped it on Yonsoo's foot. Maybe then she would have awakened to Minchul's world.
Yonsoo can't be this naive, can she? What did the writers do to her??

Re: K-Drama (SBS): 아름다운 날들 (Beautiful Days)
Anyeong Hasaeyo! Good morning BDF
Smoochie, Jasy: So you really think Yonsoo is a dumb bunny with no IQ? LOL! I'm sorry but my sympathy is with Yonsoo and Sunjae, at this point. Besides, Im still turned off on Minchul's inability to protect Yonsoo against that crazy SM Lady. SM Lady was very abusive of Yonsoo and Minchul saw the whole scenario. What he should have done is let his assistant bring SM Lady at his office and tell her to behave properly as a Manager, otherwise, fire her if she doesn't. It seems to me that the SM Lady has too much authority and has used it often to abuse her subordinates. Biting someone is definitely a crazy behaviour and that alone is reason enough to can her. . But Minchul only gave her a slight reprimand. He didn't even ask Yonsoo, who was on the floor, picking up the cds, if she is all right.
Regarding Yonsoo's concern for Sunjae, it's only because she regards Sunjae like a younger brother and a friend who helps her a lot with her problem with Sena. I think Minchul has not develop his trust for women at this point and that makes him sensitive to Yonsoo's caring for Sunjae. Yonsoo, on the other hand, is a little bit dense for not recognizing Minchul's being jealous of Sunjae. To her, Minchul should know by now how much she loves him and that should be enough for Minchul to feel secured.
Sunjae has now entered the dark side of his character. His optimistic and innnocent-like character was shattered with the discovery of his birth. I'm not a Sunjae fan but at this turn of events, I couldn't blame him for what he will do later.
