K-Drama: 집으로 가는 길 (The Road Home)
I`ve noticed that the gay angle has been ignored,and the violent rage empasized. I wonder if the gay lover was also abused and will travel to Korea to confront the Ex. Whatever, the guy needs medical treatment before someone gets killed. I`ve also never seen such rudeness toward older adults.

K-Drama: 집으로 가는 길 (The Road Home)
This is one instance (and I hope the one & only one) that I wish Suin will have a miscarriage. That jerk & his family will do everything in their power to be in her life and get custody of the child.
I did not see the start of this drama where they show that the ex was homosexual.
Also, I can't believe those investors coming and physically abusing Suin's Dad. I've seen that in other dramas where the creditors swoop down on the family and take everything in the house. They don' t go thru the legal process.

Re: K-Drama: 집으로 가는 길 (The Road Home)
class blockquote I just want to know if Hye knows Suin isn't her mom's bio child.My guess is no. I was under the impression that his mom thinks Suin is her ex-SIL's bio daughter. class blockquote I wonder if the gay lover was also abused and will travel to Korea to confront the Ex. LOL, we think alike. I posted that on the prior page and added that it would be ironic if ex-lover came to Korea and defended Suin against him.
KDR - been thinking about that all day. There is always that chance, especially if they have Ex go into therapy. I can't see the writers have him go all teary-eye, melt and change just from seeing his newborn baby.
But, I'm thinking either jail or death. I think the baby will be born and might even be a boy and his mother will witness Ex being violent against Suin (and/or possibly baby) and his mom will do "something" to prevent the cycle from continuing with the next genertion.
Another thought - maybe the ex-lover, not knowing where in Korea Ex lives, finally finds him and confronts him. In a fit of rage, Ex doesn't want it to be known he is gay/bi and in defending himself ex-lover kills Ex. Another thought, if Ex's father shows up, he may not want the cycle to continue and be the one to put an end to Ex.... one way or another.
I do think there might be KDR for Ex's mother. I think when the family realizes what she has gone through, they may give her visitation rights to her grandchild. class blockquote Remembering how some Korean fans can't seem to differentiate between the actor and the character and practically attack them on the streets, I feel sorry for this guy. Same here. Wonder if the glasses and the stache are fake. And, the hair and eyebrows are different, too, so not to be recognized.
Hiro and Jisu - I know I'm in the minority here, but they don't "pop" for me. Don't think their acting is that great. Glad when their scenes are over.

Re: K-Drama: 집으로 가는 길 (The Road Home)
I seem to be incorrect in most of my speculations recently, but here goes again!
I'm kinda guessing the gay angle will just die out because I can't see the Daily Drama target audience comfortable with the subject. My guess is the writers used it as a rather sensational 'hook' to draw in viewers from the start and to establish how really horrible Suin's marriage circumstance was—besides life-threatening physical beatings, EX had his gay lover living with them in the same household.
If I had to guess what happens to EX, I can see him running back to the States to escape any legal problems his violence or unethical business practices might lead to in Korea. I've also thought he might meet an untimely death somehow. I can't imagine Suin would ever go back to him—unless she has a child that he gets custody of and she lives with him to protect her child.
My favorite scene with EX so far was when he showed up at the Hans and says, I'd like some dinner, Mother. I had a good laugh over that one. But I'm glad he went there. Otherwise the family would never have heard just how viciously he had beat Suin. She doesn't seem like one to air her dirty laundry to others, even to her parents. So, from that point of view, I was glad EX showed up as his arrogant, evil little self.

Smoochie: Billy DeWolfe? He was the "second banana" in a lot of old black and white film comedies.
Re: the Ex abusing the child-odds are if it is a boy, the child will probably be abused. It's another power thing. A male child seems to make an abuser feel that his role as the power holder/head of the family in the family is challenged. If the child is a girl he may not be as abusive because she may be seen by him as a powerless creature. The female child has to have a strong personality and treat him as an equal with her attitude.
The issue of him being gay/bi is a separate thing. There are gay/bi men who are caring, loving fathers. Being gay/bi doesn't automatically make him abusive. However the Ex had a male lover and rubbed Suin's nose in that fact to add to his abuse. I'm sure the Ex's lover is also upset about competing with a wife. The Ex's undoing will be his rage. I like the idea of him returning to the States. Hmmm..I wonder if he is a strong swimmer.

Oh Smoochie, Billy de Wolfe was a lovely , funny actor. He had his definite personality and played to it in every role. The only thing the EX has in common is that thin mustache. And whoever said the actor was bad is right. He just doesn't know how to be this character and maybe it's because he is young and hasn't got the experience.
