Re: K-Drama: 집으로 가는 길 (The Road Home)
I had to think about what you said Curly Carrot. I've been one that is dead set against the ex finding out about the baby, and... because the MIL has been so hateful I just automatically assumed she also needed to be left out re the baby.
I should be more understanding. It's because the writers make us dislike these characters so much! I blame them!! 
In reality, I think the MIL and FIL would dote on a grandchild. Also, this most likely will be the only grandchild they will ever see. Can the ex really be 100% bad? I mean, he does have a lover so he must have passion and be capable of love, right? Maybe (just maybe) he hated Suin because he had to marry her. I suppose she was his shield. He had to lead a double life and perhaps his resentment of her caused him to be abusive.
I know that is no excuse and I'm sure the ex is every bit the jerk Suin has made him out to be. He both physically and emotionally abused her. I wonder if he is abusive to his lover? I guess he's coming back so we can do our psychological evaluation of him and determine if he is fit to play daddy to the baby!
Ok, tonight's ep was great. Suin gets a nasty scolding from her ex MIL. Suin tells her that she had an abortion. Then Suin tells her mother about it and expresses extreme fear of her ex. Ok.. I think the ex must be really horrible. I mean, look at Suin. Could this timid compassionate woman do anything to cause a man to physically abuse her?
Suin meets the new 'writer' that the previous writer set up to take Suin's place (wouldn't that have been Hyeonsu's choice and not someone else's?). New writer then contacts Hyeonsu and he is totally in the dark. He immediately contacts Suin and she was glad because it gave her a chance to spend a little more time with him before she leaves.
Suin meets Hyeonsu and tells him she is tired and overworked and wants to stay home to rest. After some argument, Hyeonsu agrees (and he feels he can still see her)
I was surprised at Suin's assertiveness when she threw her arms around Hyeonsu and just held on to him. She obviously is having a very hard time leaving him.
Hyeonsu is so happy that Suin openly cares for him. He tells her that he will introduce her and the baby to his family someday (he hopes he can convince them to accept her and the baby eventually).. Poor guy. What will he do when Monday morning comes and he finds out she left?
Did we bad-mouth Chow out of the show?

K-Drama: 집으로 가는 길 (The Road Home)
Oh no! Chowow will rear her ugly head again, this is not the last of her, she is like exzema keeps recurring. As the series enfold I have very high hopes for Suin and HS, as previoulsy stated the red herring in the ex finding out will fall on the head of bratty sister, due to shear jealousy of her sister. Upon finding out the monster she unleashed, her remorse will set in (my opinion).

I think that Suin's ex-laws (or at least the mother) knew of her son's sexual orientation/preferences and that is why she rushed the marriage with Suin and sent them off to the US. Bringing him back to Korea at this time probably is her scheme to continue the facade/deception that her son is "normal". As we know, the word has already circulated about the divorce and the fact that Suin is pregnant and to further remove guilt from her son she will have him return, "behave admirably" in full view of her social circle, then send him back to the US. At first I thought she would want the baby to be her grandchild seeing as she only has the one son but continuing the story that the child is the result of an extramarital affair keeps her from having to explain a divorce between her son and his faithful pregnant wife. She obviously fears homosexuality more than the stigma of divorce.
Will Hyeonsu be just as understanding as we have seen him in the past after Suin leaves without a word? or will his hurt turn to anger for her lack of trust in his ability to protect her?

... I also like Hiro's personality...can't understand why so many dislike him  I like him, too. I loved the scene of Hiro cooking dinner for Jisu. I think they are a cute couple together—a chemistry going on there.
Interesting how he told her that poking around different dishes with her chopsticks was considered rude behavior in Japan. I can only imagine how ill-mannered the Japanese must consider seeing people stuff their mouths to overflowing, then talking at the same time! LOL! Especially women, since 'well-bred' Japanese women are very demure in how they eat.
Last night's scene of Suin saying 'good bye' to Hyeonsu was very sad. He thinks she is finally showing her true feelings of love for him, but she's really only saying farewell and how she appreciates his kindness and attention. Yes, she cares for him all right, but she's also determined to exit his life.
Glad to hear Suin's going to New Zealand. Maybe they will do some filming there and we'll get to see the exquisitely beautiful countryside. But knowing how K-dramas go, she'll probably not even leave Seoul! However, if she does, I'll bet Sumi won't be able to keep her mouth shut and will leak Suin's whereabouts to the wrong people.
The actress playing the MIL is really scary looking, isn't she?! Good casting for that role. If the mom is so scary, I dread seeing what the ex-husband is like! He must be a really nasty dude. Probably frustrated to death having to put on a public appearance that denies who he really is and deal with his parents who are in total denial. Having to marry a woman and try to produce an heir—what a mess. No wonder he treated Suin so brutally. For her to have such a fearful reaction at the thought of what her ex will do... he must be a very violent, miserable man.

I've enjoyed reading all the comments about this drama but I question the comment "Probably frustrated to death having to put on a public appearance that denies who he really is and deal with his parents who are in total denial. Having to marry a woman and try to produce an heir-what a mess. no wonder he treated Suin so brutally. For her to have such a fearful reaction at the thought of what her ex will do...he must be a very violent miserable man."
I was married to a violent, miserable, abusive man. Frankly, let Suin's ex buy a punching bag and release his frustrations. It doesn't matter what his conflict with his parents is. He has no right to treat another human being in an abusive manner. Because if he is as violent as he is- beating her is just the first step. Just because they divorced doesn't mean that the violence is over. Abuse is about power physical and psychological. Suin needs help and in respect to her parents, they are doing what I did by trying to keep it quiet because they are embarrased. That plays into the abuser's hands. This particular "nut ball" is probably very worried that his parents might disinherit him.

I'm sorry if I upset you by my response. I wasn't upset by what you said. I rewrote my response several times before I sent it because I didn't want you to misunderstand. You are right in what you said there are usually reasons why people are abusive. In the case of my abuser he wasn't abused, he didn't drink or do drugs. Neither the one member of his family I discussed this with nor I could figure out why he was as he was. The most important thing is to survive it and my guess is Suin will.

I recognized the actor playing Suin`s ex, but minus the mustache,hair and glasses which makes him look very weird. I think we`ll now get more details about Suin`s marriage and its breakup.

I still don't understand how a woman can have a baby whose father is someone she fears. I would want a clean break from that relationship and a baby will link her to that man forever. Suin is just that naive (or stupid) to think that she can be insulated from the ex's family and raise the baby as her own. Doesn't she know that the baby would look like her ex and she would be reminded of him every time she looks at the baby. Worse, the baby may have the ex's traits. Anyways, Suin's character is not sympathetic at all. She got herself into her current predicament, from leaving HS in the first place, to her loveless marriage, to her divorce, single parenthood, etc..... She is the reason why she's suffering right now. Even though her sister is unlikable, her comment about Suin is right on.
