Drama Review
This episode focus on Gus as a sweet and kind man. He is courageous when faced with problem and did not back down from any challenges. I love the fact that his name is the same as his character. He has always being the peace maker of the family as he tried to strike a balance between being a good man to Kimchi and a good son to his mother. I like the fact that he is protective over his family members and took it upon himself to look after everyone.
Kimchi was abandoned by her family after a dinner. Even though at a young age she knew the motive of her father. She knew that he father favor her younger brother more than her and will abandon her at the right time. Therefore, she tied herself to her brother. Even when she was almost knocked down by a car, it did not stop her father from leaving. I understand how lonely and betrayed she felt at the moment.
Gus confession at the hospital was so touching, sincere and romantic. How i wish there is such a perfect man in real life. I melted at his confession and sincerity. Gus cheeky smile and various expressions should be make into meme. Those cute expressions and funny personality make the drama more interesting. Kimchi and Gus had been through so much and build a company from scratch, hopefully their love will blossom. :)
