Coffee Prince 7&8

Huge twist in the end of episode 7. To me the argument between Eun Chan and Han Kyuol came awkward. It seemed like there has to be issues for them to fight for in order to bring the next reunion scene. Apparently both Eun Chan nad Han Kyuol started feeling differently through their daily observation. Since both of the has nearly no experiences on relationships, their interaction sometimes seems dumb but cute, just like puppy love. I like how the plot arranged the way they made up through going to a Chinese restaurant and eat since Eun Chan appreciates food so much.

Also, once again the formula proves that even relaxing dramas like "Coffee Prince" can not get rid of the dramatic changes on illness. This is sooooo disappointing =( Han Kyuol's grandma was diagnosed as the last stage of gastric cancer; therefore, Han Kuyol started considering acting like an adult but no foolling around anymore. As Han Kyuol thought about meeting someone his grandmather prefer for marriage, Eun Chan had the impulse to tell him the truth. Such conflict brought the Coffee Prince into more intense storyline. Furthermore, another cliche of mis-blood relationships appeared as well. At first I thought maybe Han Kuyol was adopted from some kind of orphange, but glady it was not. This plot came totally unexpected and I did not understand what does it have to do with the major storyline. Following by the story goes I believe Eun Chan and Han Kyuol will be closer than ever since they want to be with each other with a more "moral" way as brotherwood. The family closeness is indeed an important value that Asian cherish, that we can find the scenes for father-son, mother-son, grandmother-son and even the sisterwood that Eun Chan shared with her sisiter in episode 8. In short I like the drama does not focus on love triangle but brings more Korean family background as well.
