Hallyu Zombie Drama Review: Bride of the Century Episodes 3-4 (1/2)
This show is starting to become extremely compelling. There mystery and the unexpected comedy balance everything to make a great show. And the kissing... we can't forget the kissing!
I kind of bad for Yi Hyun. I think he's totally confused about Doo Rim because he finds her attractive, yet she looks like his half-sister Yi Kyung. Doo Rim does have a very warm personality and if very caring towards him, so it is understandable of why he could get attached... especially since Yi Kyung has proven to be an ice queen of sorts so he never really had the feeling of having a little sister and being protective over her.
His confusion does allow for an odd jealousy factor between Yi Hyun and Kang Ju and it flared up a few times this week from the potential trampling situation at Kang In's showcase to returning Doo Rim back to her home. Even Kang Ju has noted how affectionate she is for her "brother."
I have to talk about the kissing. Usually k-dramas tend to have horrible kiss scenes, but we got two this week and they were actually pretty acceptable considering these two characters don't really have much of a relationship yet. I did get a kick out of the kiss at the Monstar showcase... Kang Ju was please with himself. There was a visible smirk and a wink after he did it!
I want to know what the connection between Roo Mi and Kan In is! Even if they are childhood friends via Kang Ju, there is definitely something going on there. He was very insistent that she keep the hair pin that he bought for her birthday. Once he convinced her to try it on, there was total affection that even Doo Rim noticed. Kan In also makes special time to seek out Roo Mi even if he should be practicing.
Lastly, I knew Yi Kyung and her mother were up to no good. It seems the plan is to sacrifice Doo Rim as the first bride and then switch Yi Kyung back in without anyone noticing Doo Rim died. I'm really hoping that it does not happen because Doo Rim is such a better fit for Kang Ju in the long run... although at some point she's going to have to tell Kang Ju that she isn't actually Yi Kyung, just her doppleganger.
With our mischievous ghost floating around, what do you think is going to happen? Is someone going to discover Doo Rim is not the real Yi Kyung? Does Kang In have a crush on Roo Mi? Let me know what you think about this week's episodes by commenting below!
