HIGH SCHOOL LOVE ON, EPISODE 15



The two boys in a crazy contest, winner takes all

RECAP
Woo Hyun shows up on Sung Yeol's doorstep, asking to be allowed to move in. Sung Yeol and the father leave. Later that night, Sung Yeol enters, falling down drunk. Woo Hyun puts a schnockered Sung Yeol to bed. In the morning, Woo Hyun is on the bed too and is pushed off, injuring his shoulder. Jae Seok's lackey, Tae Ho, runs into classmate Joo Ah�and decides to get revenge on the store owner for firing Joo Ah and shorting her on wages.

The security guard goes to the store where Joo Ah worked and collects her back wages. Sung Yeol's father goes off and drinks when informed about Ji Hye's loan that she used to pay for Woo Hyun's shop. Woo Hyun hires Joo Ah to work there. After school, Jae Seok announces Sung Yeol is buying for everyone. At the end, when Woo Hyun has Sung Yeol pay up, he announces that their mom owns the shop and he doesn't have to pay. When he leaves, Seul Bi goes with him, and Sung Yeol sees the sigil on her wrist glowing.


Woo Hyun shushes Sung Yeol while Seul Bi's sigil goes nuts

That evening, Sung Yeol challenges Woo Hyun to a contest: if Woo Hyun wins, Sung Yeol will keep everything a secret, but if Sung Yeol wins, Woo Hyun will tell him�Seul Bi's secret. They perform some bizarre mashup between pullup and chinup, and Woo Hyun wins. That night, when everyone is asleep, Woo Hyun goes looking for a pain reliever as his shoulder is now killing him. Sung Yeol sneaks into Seul Bi's bedroom (creepy!) and sees the brand on her wrist glowing. The next morning, Sung Yeol sees Ji Hye sleeping at the wounded Woo Hyun's bedside.


I'm seeing a trend here...

Sung Yeol volunteers to make breakfast, trying to poison Ji Hye and Woo Hyun with shellfish (they're allergic, remember?). Sung Yeol's father tells him he needs to stop. Laying down, Ji Hye talks to Woo Hyun, telling him why she walked out on him. At the park, Seul Bi again strives to get Sung Yeol to stop and puts her hands up to push him away. Her sigil starts glowing and he tries to ask if she's an angel, but before he can get the word out,�Woo Hyun's hand claps over his mouth as the symbol explodes into a brilliant, fierce radiance, engulfing the three...

A drunken Sung Yeol, supported by dad

MY TAKE
Sung Yeol's father is in massive pain. At every turn, he finds out he can't trust Ji Hye. At all. It's kind of sad because she does things behind his back when she's already on thin ice. He said he doesn't trust her to stick around since she left Woo Hyun high and dry. So she decides to take out a loan without discussing it and pay off the debt incurred by Woo Hyun's dad. He's taken to drinking now, and I'm worried about what will happen to him in the future.� �


While she sleeps, Seul Bi's brand glows

Sung Yeol
�has grown to be evil. He reminds me of those bad girls in American dramas that plot against everyone and try to bring them down. Except, he's Korean. And a guy. I dunno, I'm not sure I'm entirely convinced. Woo Hyun�already told him he doesn't want to fight and would rather be friends. His dad tells him to stop. Seul Bi tells him to stop many times. So Sung Yeol decides to ignore all this? I don't think hurting someone she likes is in the Handbook of Love: Getting Her to Love You Back.�


Ji Hye slumbers next to Woo Hyun

I love the scenes with Woohyun and Kim Sae Ron in this episode. They have such awesome chemistry, they don't need to be near each other to convey what their characters feel for each other. The relationship between Seul Bi and Woo Hyun is pretty awesome, and one of the main reasons I watch the show. They have an easygoing love despite the tensions in the show. They're able to fool around with each other, make jokes (at one point he has�Kim Sae Ron in a headlock), and just look like they're having a good time. They both have great grins, too.

I almost wonder if Sung Yeol triggered something that caused Seul Bi's brand to go off like that. He did ask if she were an angel. Maybe having that thought is enough? I hope not. In one fell swoop, he's managed to take away Woo Hyun's everything! I dunno, maybe not. I have a feeling Sunbae's going to show up next episode. What do you guys think?
