Coffee Prince 15, 16, & 17

I will start off by saying how painful it was to watch episodes 15 through 17. These last three episodes meant "the end" and I was not ready to say, "good bye" to the show, but like all things with a beginning, there is an ending. I can honestly say that I have grown attached to these characters and hope the network brings along "Coffee Prince 2" or "Coffee Princess".

Episode 15 and 16 revealed more about family and values. Han Kyul reveals to his family that Eun Chan is in fact a woman and his girlfriend. His family is not accepting of her and his grandmother even refers to her as a "thing". Later on you see Han Kyul's mother meets with Eun Chan and talks about their relationship, and then Han Kyul's grandmother makes a deal with Eun Chan. Grandmother sponsors her studying abroad to become a barista. While Han Kyul objects to the idea, he can't do much, but support Eun Chan and wait for her.

Again, like I have stated in the last blog, Coffee Prince shows a lot of modernity. Episode 17 was a turning point for me as a viewer. Eun Chan and Han Kyul's relationship showed a sort of balance. I don't know if its because Eun Chan looked a lot more feminine than she did in previous episodes, but what ever it is, it showed balanced.

Although I am not at all satisfied with the "final cup", I throughly enjoyed watching "Coffee Prince". Watching the show awakened a lot of ideas and feelings that I have set aside and has me wanting to follow other dramas.
