She said that she will be going back to Japan.

Her facial expressions in that scene showed contempt and disgust towards Park Hoon. After an article appeared in Korean ladies magazine . Press J to jump to the feed. Read more . .

If she's Jae Hee, why would she needs to copy her own gestures? The way you described it eyes wide open, empty expression is exactly what I would describe a person that is about to die would probably have. I work really hard while acting as Song Jae Hee to show a child that is endlessly bright and pure; while acting as Han Seung Hee, I have to emotionally satisfy many things in order to make it seem as if there are many stories stored inside of her eyes., Jin Se Yeon then promised Though there is a lot of burden playing two characters as I still lack in many areas, it would be nice if people watched over me as I exert myself. Meanwhile, a stone-faced Seung-hee tells Agent Cha that the whole act was devised so that Hoon would believe that Jae-hee is alive. i actually agree w you but i actually am watching it since idk i like to finish a drama unless its really THAT bad then. Hahahhahaha ! this was her worst scene ever in DrStanger [at least for me] she stood there with 1 expression on her face and her mouth and eyes wide open , even when she was holding PH's hand and about to fall in the river her eyes and face expression were the same, empty, not like a person who is about to die, thanks God jong suk was there to save that scene he made me cry, he broke my heart he made me feel his loss and pain.

And since theres a convenient shortage of anesthesiologists, Seung-hee steps up to the plate to help(?) While Seung-hee sneaks something Kevorkian into Chang-yis moms IV, Agent Cha reports to Nightshade that Seung-hee was successful in the surgery. i loved this episode every bit of it . the pace has slowed down way too much thats probably because i am more a movie person rather than series. i am not one of those who can take the anticipation thats probably the reason why i loved the first two episode where things happened quick and there were unexpected twist at every turn which only made it even more interesting for me and got me hooked on to the show permanently. from ep 5 on the show has ceratinly slowed down may be it is finally time to fit the zigsaw bit by bit. and while doing so the drama now has caught on to the romantic side of it by bring in jae hee completely into the picture which i am loving so so much.. i was afraid that we would barely get to see her but am grateful that it is doesn't happen to be so instead acc to the preview we will get to see more of hoon and jae hee which is super awesome dont' let me down show.

Right after the scene where Hoon gets knocked out by the flying basin at Soo Hyun's mom's house Dr Moon showed up. I recommended this show to a close friend of mine who didn't watch kdramas back then and she said it was way too dramatic and dropped it after the first episode. Why's he in Myungwoo, you ask?

Shes vulnerable and under-confident but tries to do well and handle herself in situations. However, Soo-hyuns not so sure: Do you think hes thinking of me all the time? Hoon thinks for a moment before replying that hed be surprised if Jae-joon did, considering his prickly personalitynot to mention hers. But Seung-hee, unafraid, convinced Agent Cha to let her meet Hoon. Seriously. This episode continues the charade from yesterdays already confounding show, as it raises still more questions. Speaking of, Hoon wakes up to find framed pictures of Seung-hee hanging on the walls, and immediately thinks of Jae-hee. Say if a couple is married right from the beginning of the drama, are they supposed to convince you that the couple is indeed in love before moving on to other parts of the story? "I think one big problem with the Hoon-Jae-Hee/ Seung-hee relationship is that we have not really see them interact. Aww. Completely agree with you. I would definitely like to see Soo Hyun grow more as a person as she continues to interact with Hoon and also admire his devotion to both saving lives and Jae Hee. I have a feeling that Jae-hee is truly dead and that they just transplanted her face into another north korean spy - aka Seung-hee. Hoon is sure that Seung-hee is Jae-hee, and seems lost in his own mind as he compliments her new hairstyle. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam. I am still trying to figure out a valid reason why there are so many people tied up with and helping North Korea here, and what they could possibly gain from it. I'm not even bashing the actresses or anything. The supporting characters were okay but not that impressive. Have fun, ya lucky Beanies. I did like the hug though, his hand was actually in her hair! I think the video was brought by the smuggler to prove to Hoon that Jae Hee is alive. Go for the show if you really like Lee Jong-Suk and want to see more of him. If I didn't know better, based on all the skinship moments and her screentime I'd have said she was the female lead of the series. I was really starting to worry watching Hoon spend most of the episode in a permanent state of reaction, which is understandable for someone like him but still not that fun to sit through. But at some points, the plot I spoke of above, did seem unnecessary and foolish. He deeply fell in love with Jae Hee (Jin Se-yeon) in his high school. Unfortunately, her designated guy pal Jae Joon is still seemingly lacking any worthwhile characterization and his motivations make him a rather odd one out of the love quadrangle. Maybe because of Jin Se-Yeon's overlapping filming schedules with "Age of Youth", the outline of serveral episodes was affected and to be written into the plot in a logical way. I have mixed feelings about it because of those random pointless things. The ending will also make you tear out your hair. It beats the alternative of the audience knowing all the secrets way ahead of timebecause spending episode after episode waiting for the hero to figure out what we already know is a formula that undoubtedly works, but one thats also a lot like knowing who the winner is before the race even starts. LOL! Jae-joons calls to Soo-hyun go unanswered, as we find her and Hoon thoroughly trashed from one (or five) too many bottles of soju. But whatever the results may be for Dr. Hoons supernatural heart-reading test, its bound to shake up and surely add more flavor to the already potent romantic concoction. How did the writers or anyone else in the making of the show not notice?? but i dont get why some to break it down to 30 mins or so to 32 episodes like that dont make sense but okay. Just because I enjoy Soohyun's character more doesn't make me pro-Sora or anti-JSY. @Scientia are you kidding me?? So you think they should be together because they look cute together, since Hoon calling her 'quack' is cute, since she kicking Hoon is cute, since she slapping Hoon is cute. And considering the pace of the kdrama live shoot system, it's no wonder she's flat and emotionless when the role calls for more than the basics and requires a little extra in terms of nuances. Moon because gosh, those two are hilarious. Doctor Stranger (Tagalog)Episode 3Filipino Dubbed She adamantly refuses that shes Jae-Hee but Hoon doesn't accept that, believing that she is Jae-hee.

And if they're just going to keep hiding everything under wraps, sorry but I don't have the patience like Hoon does, and I'll just lose interest with this conspiracy thing really soon (and I really don't want that to happen because there is so much potential for it to become something good). Hes impressed by Seung-hee. 2. I didnt like that they made a competition out of important surgeries. I hope they end up together. And honestly, I do feel some pity for PHJ's character, but they sure are piling on the second lead tropes.

Park Hoon is emotionally tormented as a doctor who looks excatly like his lost love Song Jae Hee continues to insist that she is not.
