Love in Contract (episode 9)

Review:

In this episode there is the most anticipated kiss of the 3 main leads respectively , but it wasn’t much progress besides this. 

Kiss Scene was the only progress in this running , and it’s filled with misunderstandings and unrelated side stories unless fans who interested in the stories of the side characters. 

The Episode 9 started off with the background story of Ji ho and his ex wife, then lead back to the continuous story from the previous episode where he happened to see his ex wife when going to confess to Sang Eun.

I don’t like how they meet up like this , it even odd that his ex started saying “ that’s man I married too”. 

So he met his ex but totally ignored her and just grab Sang Eun’s hang and left. This is so Ji Ho.

As story goes  on , there are too much unnecessary flashbacks in this episode likes they just want to fill the running time. 

Once he decided to go to Sang Eun in the previous episode, it already confirmed that he want to be confess , and all of sudden , he got confused again about this feeling  and need to consult, it’s like back and forth.

I think the consulting part isn’t necessary , unless they wanted to make him talk bout his problems to someone and creating some funny scenes with  his boss. Yes it was indeed funny esp when they mention about the seaweed taste like banana .

The story goes on all over the places , and things started to get right when our two leads started to confront each other in the very first argument likes a real couple then they kissed. 

This second kiss scene was on point esp after the scene where Sang Eun watched the kiss scene in the car in Yumi Cell drama and got into her own fantasy. 

I wish they have better dialogues for this climax. It was so cliche for Ji Ho to sudden kiss Sang Eun during the argument, it sth we have seen in the drama a while ago. This is indeed classic kissing scene that we always see. 

However , I don’t mind as they acted out the scene well despite it was clumsy to begin the kiss. I think due to Ji Ho character , I think gentle kiss may fits better.

Never thought he could look this sarcastic . This is him being angry after knowing that Sang Eun has a kiss with Hae Jin wasn’t his nightmare, but it indeed happened. 

 This is the best example of missing the timing when you keep going back and forth.

Hae Jin video called with his cat who totally ignore him was also funny. Poor boy! 

I think Hae Jin deserves some loves from his cat ,but not from Sang Eun. 

By now we all know the journey of this drama is converting this contract relationship into the real relationship. Also we know that Sang Eun will end up with Ji Ho since they fall for each other  , unless the writer gives us a surprised twist , that we don’t wish to see. 

I feel relationship of Hae Jin and Sang Eun is more like good friends or siblings since they understand each other situation considering Ji Ho knows nothing about Sang Eun’s life.
