Boys Before Flowers Episode 19

I don't even know where to start ranting about this episode. First, they haven't finished the fiance arc yet. Til how long am I going to suffer? Jaekyung is like this annoying porn pop-up. You're so into the movie you're watching online, then suddenly, porn pops up on your screen. And once you close that pop-up screen, another one pops up and before you know it, there are millions of them. No choice, but restart the computer. That's how Jaekyung is, no matter how hard I try to make her go away, she still materializes. She's cute, but not next to Junpyo. I don't know about the others who already watched this episode, but Minjung looks like Minho's noona. Sorry, if that sounded cross, but she does. How old is she anyway?

This episode had moments, but not enough to dissolve my anger towards the screenwriter. Let me just list down all the things I hated about this episode.

HATES: (in no particular order)
-Jihoo angsts, Yijung angsts, Junpyo flirts with Jaekyung. Is Woobin the only decent F4? Too many angsts for one episode. Enough already! I get it, you love to angst. I bet the scriptwriter had a traumatic childhood, BBF serves as his/her documentary!

-Hyun Joong's acting. For a moment there--Jihoo's confrontation with his grandpa--I thought I was going to be floored with Hyun Joong's acting. But what's up with the constipated look under the rain? I don't even know if he was crying or laughing

-THE RAIN SCENE! That should've been Jandi and Junpyo's scene. Seriously, screenwriter, did you even read the manga? YOU JUST RUINED ONE OF THE IMPORTANT SCENES OF THE MANGA!

-Jihoo not having a change of clothes after being soaked with rainwater. You don't even have to take a class in logic to get this. What's the point of Jandi taking care of Jihoo if he'll only get pneumonia the next day? YOU CAN'T HAVE SOMEONE SLEEP WITH THEIR WET CLOTHES ON! I know how concerned you are with the board of censors, but if you are so intent on Jandi becoming a doctor, you should have her learn the basics of patient care and that is to NOT HAVE YOUR PATIENT SLEEP WITH WET CLOTHES ON!

-I've complained about this numerous times already, but let me say this again: WHEN ARE WE GOING TO GET RID OF THE FIANCE? In MG, the fiance arc didn't last too long. The MG fiance wasn't even that irritating, but here...hay, I'm sounding like a broken record already. But you know the gist!

-In the earlier scene of the episode, we have Ga Eul give Yijung a shower. During Jandi's house warming, they were lovey-dovey. Yijung had tremendous manners, but now that he's angsty and short-tempered, I don't think he'll be that lovey-dovey with Ga Eul after what she did to him. Study your logic, you dumb-dumb!

Although, I was furious to no end with this episode. There were some scenes worth noting

LOVES:
-Jihoo grabbing Jandi's hand. Now, I know how to two-time. Although I'm still hoping for a Junpyo-Jandi ending, these Jihoo-Jandi scenes make it hard to stay on one ship. I'm getting seasick already.

-The Junpyo-Jandi rooftop scene. Junpyo sounding like a nagging wife after Jandi spent the night at Jihoo playing his wife. If he only knew where she was. LOL!

-Ga Eul giving Yijung a shower! I usually skip their scenes, but this one isn't something I should miss. It's like Makino was reincarnated in Ga Eul's body.

-The truth game. Loved all the lines there. When Yijung asked Jihoo if he could love again after Seo Hyun, then Jihoo's look fell on Jandi. When Jihoo asked Junpyo, "If the person you love is suffering because of you, would you be able to let her go?" to which Junpyo replied, "No. I won't send her away. I can't send her away. I'll make sure, we're tightly tangled up. And definitely make her happy." Then Junpyo asks Jandi if the promise she made to him in the expressway still holds true. This is where the real heartbreaker is--Jandi's reply: "No. That person who made that promise and even that person who heard it no longer exist." MAJOR OUCH! Like a knife in the heart, first aid for Junpyo's heart please!

-WOOBIN! When everyone else is caught up with their angsts, trust Woobin to provide comic relief. When Jandi asked him if F3 were girls, who would he marry? He replied, "There isn't one! (with conviction!) We have self-centeredness, fourth dimension, hot & cold cassanova...spend the rest of my life with them? Send me to a monastery instead!" I love him! I love how he can keep his sanity while around the dysfunctional F3. I don't have a clue what a fourth dimension is though.

-The Jihoo-Yijung bromance! I bet Woobin was seething with anger.

-Hyun Joong's butt in the rain scene. hehehe. He has apple bottoms. Let me indulge with some little vanity.

Jeez! Spawn of satan returns! If she doesn't look that old, I would like to think she's pregnant and she's so taken with Jandi. That's menopause talking and bitching! How come she always have free time to torture Jandi? I thought she has a company to take care of and monies to count? If I were Junpyo, since spawn of satan has never been a mother figure--more of a figure, than a mother--since I am the heir of Shinhwa, I would pay some doctor to fake the spawn of satan's medical records and make it look like she had gone nuts and I will admit her to a nuthouse. Problem solved!

With the disappointment piling up, I'm not really that excited to watch episode 20.
