Glass Slippers is getting even more interesting with each episode. The show has its faults but lacking makjang is not one of them. There are nasty people you can hate without feeling bad (that is a problem I have), the lead girl is "angel" type I love in K-Dramas and there's So Ji Sub being the comic relief and actually doing a good job of it too (wrong career choises Ji Sub oppa, you should have been a comedian).
Anyway the Bad Family's father (who I have found out is the second husband of the Bad Woman) tried to rape Yoon Hee but she managed to escape his clutches by the early arrival of Bad Woman and Bad Sis. Even though it was obvious that Yoon Hee was assaulted, they threw her out and called her names. Seriously, it is not hard to dislike these people. Grandma found Yoon Hee crying on the street and takes her home and here we find out that Chul Woong is not the adult thug but the son of Mr.Park and they live together with Halmoni, Chul Woong's Sister and Mr.Park.
The one important point is that Yoon Hee has lost her ring during the struggle and Bad Sis found it but didn't return it to Yoon Hee for various reasons:
* She is a bad person
* She wanted to exchange it for Chul Woong (even though Yoon Hee said time and again that she is not interested in him - but I so wish that she would be in the future) but she flipped out as soon as she found out that Yoon Hee is now living with Chul Woong and his family.
* She has found out (as Bad Man and Bad Woman did) that Yoon Hee is the granddaughter of Grandpa and Tae Hee's sister and that she is rich etc. and she is thinking of passing herself as Yoo Hee to Tae Hee.
* She is crazy
Meanwhile Tae Hee hooked up with Jae Hyuk and is not shy in declaring her love and her want of intimacy with him. Jae Hyuk is caught up in corporate issues (he is trying to make the communications company as success) and Grandpa doesn't like him and warns him to stay away. The more interesting thing for me is that it appears that Jae Hyuk actually likes Tae Hee. His assistant knows of his ruin Grandpa plan and asked whether Tae Hee is part of that plan but he refused it and he asked Tae Hee to stay away from him since it makes it difficult for him to realise his plans (and he told her that he cannot tell her what these plans are) if she keeps interfering. Well we'll see what happens on that front.
Tae Hee's problems are getting close to Jae Hyuk and her Aunt's poisinous words and looks. Auntie wants her son So Jun to inherit everything Grandpa has and is afraid that Tae Hee will get them all. So Jun on the other hand is a good guy who is not ambitious and is perfectly happy with managing a restaurant and being a playboy. Also he gets along with Tae Hee very well and helps her trying to locate Yoon Hee. Well he also met cute with Chul Woong's sis while she is making deliveries. I wonder if anything will come out of that. They are polar opposites these two.
At the end of episode 9 Bad Sis asks to meet Tae Hee to show her something from her childhood. She actually recited Yoon Hee's story as if her own and warned her mother and stepfather to keep quiet. She actually thinks she can pull it off. Tae Hee is smart and perceptive but she is also looking for her sister for 15 years and not only misses her but also feels guilty about not being able keep her promise to her father (she promised she'd look after her). And when she was going to meet with Bad Sis, her dad's photo fell on the floor and the glass cracked. A bad omen....
Also I'm totally and utterly loving Innocent Blood. It is very British and the prose of P.D James reminds me a bit of Ruth Rendell - it is a good thing.
