![]() ![]() He IS disgusting, the way he talks about how Soo Ji cannot decide whether to live or die. One thing I think this episode did right is Professor Cha. The more I think about it, the more frustrated I feel. It’s like this episode just stopped trying to make us feel excited anymore, because the entire episode is entirely one flashback. And see, it just doesn’t make sense that they then cut away from the heightened scene of Hyung Seok killing his father back to the present….and then back to the past again. In fact, I feel slightly annoyed knowing that they would cut away from his face for sure (thank god though that they cut back to Emma straightaway instead of some other irrelevant filler). For example, showing Sun Ho’s shocked face doesn’t actually make me feel anxious or excited. Rather than always stepping back to show the truth after a cliffhanger, they should try sometimes to work linearly and cut off at the cliffhanger instead. Next, they have a flashback of Jin Woo’s story after meeting Emma, and then a flashback within that story to Professor Cha. It is a unique style, but it really cuts the tension and that’s working against them. First, they had a phone call, leading to a flashback of another phone call. Even the parts on Sun Ho and Professor Cha are getting too much for me. Yes, some people can follow seamlessly, but I can totally see why this is not for everyone. The cutting back and forth of conversations, whilst trying to give a coherent picture of a retelling of story, does make it confusing. Jin Woo has already left to drop Emma’s car key at his house, before returning to the church. By the time Sun Ho figures things out, it’s too late and he only finds a dead Cha in the hotel. Who would have known that the first victim Hyung Seok claims is his dad. When all is quiet, Cha flees but (woohoo) the rain starts falling, and Hyung Seok appears. Cha secretly calls for the server to be opened (since he doesn’t want to die/’fess up) around the hotel and hides in the bathroom while Jin Woo gets ambushed by NPCs. It’s then revealed that Jin Woo has deduced that he’s THE bug, and Emma has to delete him (i.e Jin Woo die) in order for the game to go back to normal. Professor Cha comes over without telling anyone, not least Sun Ho, and Jin Woo presses Cha to reveal to the world that he orchestrated the whole Jin Woo investigation so that he can steal his daughter-in-law’s assets. He eventually runs away and faints in a bathroom, gets saved by his doctor, who hides him in a hotel room and calls Professor Cha. Jin Woo sees through the pop-ups that ‘Emma is deleting the bug’, and when he pushes away from her, the process halts. Maybe she can be a psychopath next time, I might love it. ![]() I’m liking this slightly evil, cold look of Park Shin Hye. Shortest recap but probably here’s all you need to know: Jin Woo passes the Key to Heaven to Emma, who reveals that it’s actually a hidden dagger and stabs Jin Woo in the heart. I have the feeling that the scriptwriters do have rules in mind (I hope), but they are probably something simple and can be shown within one episode, hence they are leaving it to the finale. In short: EP15 is just an explanation of what went down in EP14, with minor (although key) elaboration on the game. ![]()
