5. Young Do and the screaming children
I'll be the first to admit that Young Do (Kim Woo Bin) is, so far, an incredibly unlikeable character. I almost want to like him because Myung Soo (ZE:A's Hyungshik) and Hyo Shin (Kang Ha Neul) do, but mostly I find myself wondering why they put up with him.
The moment with the screeching kids was the first time I felt some amount of sympathy for the guy, specifically when he makes the offhanded comment to Myung Soo that the kids are mocking him for not having a mother. While he may have been casual about it, we know from episode three and the comment after last episode's judo match that this is actually a sensitive subject. This one didn't earn a full-on aww, but it did at least earn him an inch of sympathy.
4. Chan Young and Bo Na
People love to hate Bo Na (f(x)'s Krystal), but I think she's hilarious, and one of the most normal characters on the show. Yeah, she's a bit obnoxious, but she's funny.
Episode four brings us Bo Na's more charming side, and it becomes easier to see why she and Chan Young (CNBLUE'S Minhyuk) get along. She's actually really cute with him when she's not feeling insecure, and he's the kind of guy who would pull off the big romantic gestures and sweet surprises (like showing up at the studio unannounced) that she seems to love. Her energy and his calmness balance each other out. All of their scenes were adorable in this episode.
3. Eun Sang and Tan's SNS conversation
Eun Sang (Park Shin Hye) and Tan (Lee Min Ho)'s rapport with each other amuses me, and their back-and-forth on SNS while not noticing they're living in the same house was hilarious. Usually by this point in the drama I'm really annoyed with the main pairing, but I actually really look forward to Eun Sang and Tan's interactions for the most part. Anyway, the "aww" came when Eun Sang told him if he didn't log out of her account she would log him out of his life.
2. Tan: "I always wonder about the people who were lonely because of me. I hope they were lonely at least once because I was not there."
Tan can not catch a break. All he wants is to be loved and missed, and he hasn't done anything wrong to deserve getting the cold shoulder, so it just hurts my heart to see him getting constantly rejected by his family. Then, in Mr. Kim (Jung Dong Hwan)'s conversation with Won (Choi Jin Hyuk), we find out that Mr. Kim was intentionally cold toward Tan because he didn't want to hurt Won, and that Tan really did grow up feeling alone and unloved... poor thing. His family's reaction to his return- especially Won's reaction- was heartbreaking.
1. Eun Sang and her mother
Eun Sang loves her mother (Kim Mi Kyung), but she can also be kind of awful to her. In episode one, Eun Sang told her mother off for using sign language in public- talk about rude! In episode 4, not only do we get a heartfelt apology from Eun Sang for having run away, but she actually uses sign language to communicate with her mother. Granted, Ki Ae (Kim Sung Ryung) was the only one around when this happened, but Eun Sang's reply wasn't a secret (Ki Ae had literally just said the exact same thing that Eun Sang signed) and the fact that she willingly used sign language to communicate when she didn't have to was a hint at some kind of character development for our heroine.
So, what moments made you say aww, and which ones made you cringe? Did you laugh as hard as I did when Young Do picked up Rachel at the airport? Did Heechul's cameo make you laugh even harder?
