Coffee Prince Ep. 11 &12

A lot of emotional drama has happened in these two episodes. Hankyul finally finds out Eunchan is a girl. I think he is overacting at the news too much. I would think he would be happy that she is a girl. He was even in denial at one part and asks Eunchan to tell him that she never lied to him. Both of them were going through the motions throughout the episodes. It was frustrating to watch because I wanted Hankyul to get over the fact that she lied and accept her apology already. Personally for me, it’s not a huge deal to get upset about but I guess since everyone knew besides him, he felt betrayed by everyone who he loves.

Meanwhile, Yooju and Hansung are still working on their relationship. I think Yooju is acting a bit selfish in these episodes by leaving to go to New York as a way to run away from her problem but at the end I’m glad she didn’t go through with it. I could understand that Yooju doesn’t want her boyfriend to be thinking about another woman besides her. However, I still don’t like how she toys with Hansung and Hankyul while stringing DK along too but then gives a hard time to Hansung about Eunchan.

It was sort of cheesy but cute in episode 12 when Eunchan had a hole in her coffee bag (or was it nuts? I couldn’t tell) and accidently left a trail for Hankyul to follow. They end up running into each other and finally work things out. It was cute when Hankyul smiled as he was resting his head on Eunchan’s shoulder. He’s loving it haha :] It’s the simple things like this that make them have a pure love. I also love the part when Minyub, Sunki, and Harim were spying on Eunchan and Hankyul and decided to send a love text message to Hankyul in Eunchan’s name.

Coffee Prince Episode 11 & 12

Episode 11 shows a lot of new developments. We finally get to see HanGyul and EunChan act like a couple sort of. Then we go into seeing how HanGyul’s real father. Essh.. As if not enough things were going on. HaRim is still mad at EunChan for not saying she was a girl in the first place. Seriously, you should have seen that she was a girl. Oh my goodness. Man, I don’t like fights but I do have to say that the fight between YuJu and HanSung was something. This drama can get so emotional. At my first initial reaction HanGyul should have been happy that he found out that EunChan was a girl. For goodness sakes it means that you’re not going out with a guy (which nothing is wrong about that, seriously, be happy either way) don’t get so pissed off that she’s a girl. Maybe it’s all the betrayal that went with it but dang HanGyul’s like the most oblivious fool out there. I guess he figures out that everyone knew and he goes to his cousin’s house and punches him. HanSung has the same reaction as me, shouldn’t he be happy that he’s going out with a girl. Almost all the coffee shop is defending that EunChan did except for HaRim. I liked what SunKi and Mr. Hong said. Essh.. just finding out that she’s a girl. For Episode 12 this makes me love HanSung even more as for the conversation that he had with HanGyul over the phone. Listen to your cousin. Essh. I liked how HanSung went after YuJu thinking that she’s gone but she’s not. Awww… ^_^ The conversation between HanSung and EunChan made me think that why it’s such a big deal that he find out that she’s a girl. We get to see a heart warming scene between the cousins and this time no fighting even when it was offered. Hahaha. Now HanGyul and EunChan are together with no more secrets hidden. I have to admit they were so cute in the end. I loved the workers reactions. Hahaha. ^_^

coffee prince 11 & 12

In episode 11, the secret of Han Kyuol's birth reveals! Apparently Han Kyuol was adopted. None of his family members are blood-related. I wonder if Han Chan knew about this or not. This episode mainly focused on Han Kyuol's inner conflict. He just learned more stories about his biological mother from this so-called his fathers friend (who actually turns out to be his biological father!). Plus that afterwards he found out Eun Chan is actually a girl, which makes him even more confused and his life miserable. What a pity that episode 12 did not elaborate more, so far we only kow that both of Han Kuyol's parents he has now were not his real parents.

Regards to the part about actual sex, there were so many clues easily could be traced back. Retrieved back to episode 2, it was Han Kyuol himself regarded Eun Chan as guy in the first place when Eun Chan read Han Kyuol her ID number. I don't understand why Han Kyuol was so mad about the fact that found out "he" is actually a "she". Wouldn't it be easier for them together this way? Of course for those who said "trust is the foundation of a relationship," being lied is absolutely not endurable. However, nobody ever knows that Han Kyuol would fall in love with Eun Chan. Remeber Han Kuyol's personality has always been so out-of-control, only does things he feels like to. No wonder Eun Chan dares not to tell him the truth because who knows what he will do? I can relate to Eun Chan's feelings tho, understand why she chose to hide the fact rather then spitting it out. There's another big twist with chestnuts brought them back together. It reminds me of the fairy tale Hansel and Gretel that left the mark for directions. The make up scene seems happened too quick, I thought there would be more twists in between though. But it is enough to see Eun Chan been crying all these times.

Meanwhile, another storyline between Yoojoo and Han Chan led to its end (!?) Finally Yoojoo broke down and told Han Chan the reason she needs to leave. Her ex, TK is only a rebound she used to make Han Chan jealous. Me myself want to know where did Yoojoo go since she didn't leave for New York. I got the feeling that she wouldn't go to New York but didn't realize she would just disappear like that.

Last but not least, does Eun Chan gain weight in the latter episodes? I feel like her face is getting rounder and rounder, probably because she needs to eat a lot in this drama.

Pasta 11-12

I almost was going to quit watching this drama until Brigitte told me it gets better once the drama hits episode 11 or 12. I watched this week's episodes and found it to be somewhat more interesting. The kitchen assistant, Eunsoo, finds out that the chef and yookyung are dating and does not know what to do, whether to tell people or not. Then he quits working at LaSfera because of the chef constantly yelling at him and everyone treating him like crap except yookyung who shows pity since she's been in the same position.

Yookyung keeps telling the chef to go talk to Eunsoo because she doesn't know that the chef did find him, but I don't know why the chef doesn't tell her to shut up and say that he did until she tells him a couple more times. I think the whole idea that Eunsoo knows that they are dating scares him. However, at the end of episode 12, the chef tells Eunsoo to come back and shut his mom about the whole issue. I don't know if that will work, though Eunsoo hasn't told anyone else yet so maybe someone else will find out about yookyung's relationship with the chef. The chef kinda makes it obvious that something is going on between him and yookyung anyways.

Yookyung and the chef's relationship also develops more and they get closer. When they are alone, the chef still acts kinda mean but he shows more affection towards her. Also, it's kinda cute that they live so close to each other and Yookyung is able to make him breakfast however, it can get annoying living so close. I think I'm starting to like their relationship, because the chef acts so tough on the outside but when yookyung shows her affection towards him, he smiles kinda stupidly (behind her of course). It's cute when he does that because he always shows his mean attitude in the previous episodes, so its rare to seem him being a softy.

On a side note, I agree with Ashley. I've been also eating more pasta because of this drama. I bought dry noodles from the store and attempted to make my own pasta but they don't look quite as good as the ones in the drama.

Pasta ep 11&12

It seems like a lot of people (outside this class) enjoy watching this drama. One of my mom's co-workers is hooked and she's been trying to find out what restraunt sells vongole :) A lot of my friends have been watching this drama as well. I admit, after watching this drama I've been eating a lot more pasta. In this weeks episodes, eunsoo finds out about the chefs and Yoo kyoungs secret relationship and also he decides to quit the restraunt. Being the maknae was hard especially with the chef yelling at him every other second. I would never have been able to survive working like that. I thought it was kind of cute when chef told Yoo Kyoung not to make it obvious that she likes him but he was the one who was really making it obvious that they were together. I've noticed in Korea and Japan, they have very nice convenience stores. These convenience stores, or conbini in japan, have more than the usual products than we have here and they also have tables by the window where you can eat and read. I liked the scene where the chef and Yoo Kyoung go to a restraunt. I admit, I always eat the bread first and I always get full by the main course that I'm not enjoying the food as much. Next time I'll make sure not to stuff my stomach with bread :)

Coffee Prince 9 & 10

Coffee Prince Ep. 9 & 10

These two episodes were the turning points of the storyline. In episode 9, Han Kyul tries to avoid Eun Chan, but has a difficult time doing so. In this episode, his battle with his sexuality and feelings for Eun Chan is a lot more prominent than the other episodes. It was in this episode where I’d hide under the covers because I didn’t want to know what was going on, the whole situation was just sad. But I had to rewind it a bit so that I could catch up to the subtitles.

Then there’s Han Sung and Yoo Joo. Its in episode 9 that Yoo Joo figures out that Eun Chan is a woman. During the cafe scene, you can see Yoo Joo’s insecurities grow now that Eun Chan’s true gender is revealed. At this point, I don't know if I feel bad for Yoo Joo or not. When I think about her and DK, I don't feel as bad.

Episode 10 is my favorite episode. Why? Because the cat is finally out of the bag. This episode was filled with so much lies and deceit. From Eun Chan lying or keeping her true gender from Han Kyul to Han Sung lying to Yoo Joo about his feelings about Eun Chan. I'd have to say this was the episode where i was giggling and yelling at the screen. I felt really cheesy, but oh well. I'd have to say this was the break through episode where everything is waiting to be put back together.

I hated Han Kyul in this episode because of what he said to Eun Chan bout her kiss was better when he thought she was a man. Han Kyul seems to have a lot of sexuality issues with himself that he needs to resolve. As for Eun Chan, I felt really bad for her when the song started playing in the background, the song reminded of Utada Hikaru's song "My First Love".

I am looking forward to the next episode. I've actually watched half of episode 11, but I won't spoil it for other viewers.

Pasta, Ep. 9-10

la.la.la-la-la-la. la. la...
this drama is still a chore to watch..the love story aspect is becoming a little too complicated? and now they are using fish as a way to describe the love situation?.."even though it tastes good, it leaves a bad taste afterwards..." But at least now we see two females in the kitchen~!...which is also creating the unrelenting drama that we love so much in the kitchen!

..and WHOA! korean wave fashionista trend setters! did we all see the glasses on the president at the gallery looking at cactuses?...and yookyung with her baby blue balenciaga motorcycle bag..REALLY? when can line cooks afford BALENCIAGA motorcycle bags, in powder blue??...just thought I would emphasize how much this drama does not make any sense...

but the chef held yookyung's hand in the hospital. a little show of affection...instead of that constant and hardcore yelling is nice...but it would be nice if he were less confrontational...with..eeryone...
