Boys Before Flowers Episode 14

First part was a snoozefest, until the tone deaf Jaekyung started to sing--or recite. Hold on! Let me wipe off the blood from my ears. Woobin, again, provides the comic relief in this episode. "What kind of disgrace is that to our country?" Just like Woobin, if I were any country, I'd deny entrance for Jaekyung. I'm really glad, Woobin has lines other than "yo, yo, yo." He doesn't have enough lines and enough appearances in this drama, but when he does, he delivers. From dissing Jaekyung's reciting and how he protested when Jandi called Jaekyung her savior. Cute!

Junpyo finally meets his future in-laws, did you see how pleased Mommy monster looked? She might just have to stop injecting botox, coz she has a different glow about her and her eyes have a different sparkle too. Must be because of Junpyo finally morphing into Mommy monster's mini-me.

The F3 gets so much love from me in this episode, I'm afraid I'll have to jump ship from Jundi to F3-Jandi. How can anyone resist Woobin, with his gangsta loving'? "Come on guys!"

Junpyo being fed with photos of Jandi and F3. I want to know who that person is so I can ask for his/her number, maybe s/he can cc me in those picture messages. What's wrong, Junpyo? Didn't like the food? Or did that little green monster reared its ugly head again? Go on, turn green with envy until you look like Shrek!

Killer lines:

Jandi: "The times we spent together, it seems like such a long time ago. If Goo Junpyo acts like he doesn't know me, I'll wonder if it really was just a dream I had."
Jihoo: "It's not a dream. If it was a dream, it wouldn't be that hard...that's why it's not a dream, because right now, you're in front of me."

Hyesun delivers another beautiful performance and Hyunjoong's acting was decent, Hyesun's skills must've rubbed off on him. Did Jihoo unknowingly confess his feelings to Jandi? Coz it seemed like that's what happened, it must've taken him a lot of self-control not to blurt out more, but said good night instead.

Human alarm clock! Genius and ANNOYING! If my mom hires somebody to blow that friggin' horn to wake me up each morning, I can commit murder.

Ooooohhhh! Yijung looked so excited to see Junpyo and to let him know Jandi came too. I like that boy, too bad I just don't dig his story with Ga Eul. Whooopps! Yijung looked mightily pissed when Junpyo appeared like he doesn't care about Jandi anymore.

Now, it's F3 vs. Junpyo. F3 on Jandi's side! Exciting! Who's going to trade punches first? I bet it's going to be Jihoo. He cares more for Jandi than Woobin and Yijung. Or it could be Woobin too, coz he considers himself as Jandi's savior. Or maybe Yijung, coz he looks like he's about to pounce on Junpyo.

Oh my! It's YIJUNG! Now, that's a shocker! I thought it'd be Jihoo. Yeah, Yijung give it to Junpyo. Give him what he truly deserves!

Then, Junpyo delivers that killer line: "700,00. Try having a number like that on your shoulders." Now, it's Jandi vs. the 700,000 Shinhwa employees. Before, Jandi only had to go against one person--Monster mom. Now, she has to go against Monster mom and the 700,000 Shinhwa employees. How is she going to compete with that?

After unsuccessfully urging Junpyo to come out and play, the delicious F3 seek for Jandi instead--to play HIDE & SEEK with those masks on. I don't get what those masks were for. I wish they hadn't worn those masks, especially Jandi. Though, I head Jandi sobbing, I wanted to see the emotions playing on her face upon seeing Junpyo on that screen. Instead, they gave us the hug from the back.

Jihoo, why are you being so sweet? With all the hate I feel towards Junpyo right now, it's tempting not to root for you.

Finally, the Junpyo-Jandi face off. I want fireworks, confetti and noise. Instead, I got a BOMB!

"A stain I want to erase." A stain? That's even worse than calling her weed. Junpyo, if Mommy monster is looking at you now, she'll throw a party and maybe even spend Christmas with you.

Jandi's breakdown seen on that gondolla. Beautiful! I've ranted how she was overacting in the previous episodes. But Hyesun redeemed herself, she has morphed into an actress worthy of a Baeksang! I didn't know she can crank out such caliber of acting, I'm truly amazed. And she's growing on me, too. At first, I found her a tad plain, but now, I find her face unique and attractive, especially in this episode. She doesn't have that generic Korean face, she's different--in a very good way. Finally! A pretty face who can actually act! Thank you Goo Hyesun!

Junpyo, I thought you had become a real monster. But going like that against Mommy monster, I thought I totally abandoned the Jundi ship, but here I am again, back on the Jundi ship!

That Junpyo and Jaekyung scene, not interested. I'll pass!

Uh-oh! Jihoo and Jandi together. BEAUTIFUL together. Jandi, must you have such chemistry with Jihoo too? Right now, I'm vacillating--from Jundi to Jihoo-Jandi then back to Jundi, then back to Jihoo-Jandi again. It's just like spying for the CIA and working with KGB! Ugh! I hate this!

Ming, is he a fruit? If that's the case, Jandi has competition. But I don't see Jihoo swaying on the other side. This is Jandi's game to lose!
