[mslee's thoughts] Discovery of Romance Episode 13 Screen caps Review

Thoughts...

I was surprised last week when after confessing to Kang Tae Ha that she, Yeo Reum was waiting for him almost everyday by the window, she still accepted the ring Ha Jin gave her when he proposed. I thought, my ship finally sunk at the bottom of the sea. She does love Ha Jin more than Tae Ha.

But in this episode, it was clarified by Yeo Reum herself when she talked to Yoon Sol that she is falling in love with Tae Ha and there is nothing wrong about it. He knew her, all about her, which can't be said about her friends and her mother. For five years she loved him. They started out when they were both innocent. Theirs is what people called first love. Everything first.

But even if she is falling in love, she knows where she must be. She will stay by Ha Jin. I think she said this because she wants stability and security which she found in Ha Jin's love. Or maybe she is not sure of Tae Ha's feelings for her. Yes, he seems he still loves her, but it is not enough. Maybe she is scared of being hurt again. With Ha Jin, she knew, she is safe with his love and care.

Then I realized my ship may be able to float again, and sail. Memories kept on rushing back from the past and made them remember each one while they work together. Tae Ha is trying hard to move on and be comfortable around her. He thinks her confession is fleeting and does not mean anything beyond what it should be.

At the end of the episode, Ha Jin was anxious when he could not reach Yeo Reum. No one knew where she spent the night. His thoughts were running towards Tae Ha. Once again, his fears were surfacing. But in the end, Yeo Reum was with her mother. She slept at her house. When she appeared at the house she shared with her friends, she was surprised they were all gathered there and asked about the missed calls she had.

Ha Jin and Yeo Reum were going out. She asked him to wait until she fixed herself. While waiting inside her room, Ha Jin saw the box Tae Ha gave back to Yeo Reum. The box where their memories were all stored. Ha Jin opened the box. There, the truth blew up on his face.

He finally saw the photos, the past, the love between Tae Ha and Yeo Reum. I think this will be a big issue between this couple. He has been lied to by his friend, Joon Ho and by Yeo Reum herself. He should feel betrayed and angry towards Tae Ha for making a fool out of him.

Although I am enjoying the discovery of love on Joon Ho's part for Yoon Sol, I think the drama will turn a bit more serious in the coming episodes. It is up to Yeo Reum to fix their relationship or to let go. And of course, I am waiting for her to choose Tae Ha. But I think I like if Tae Ha will stay put and not intrude on Yeo Reum's and Ha Jin's current situation. As a viewer, I think if Yeo Reum will really choose Tae Ha, it should be her move.
