All is Fair in Love & War

This episode was such a spectacular follow-up to episode 1. As someone who enjoys having a calm watch, or, at the very least, doesn't require a lot going on plot-wise if the characters are solid - THIS SHOW IS IT. Getting to see deeper into their couple dynamics was such a great highlight of this episode. Them consistently eating and having such a great time makes so much sense when you think about Yun Seo's childhood and the way she had to raise her younger brother by herself. Seo Ju Won is literally the love of my life - I absolutely love that he has the guts and the tenacity to chase after the woman he loves because she can't fight right now, but she loves him just as much like!!!! And the fact that there's kind of this "thread",,, I don't know how to describe it really. But the parallel between Seo Si Won and Yun Seo both trying to protect their younger sibling from harm (one domestic violence and the other emotional damage) but the richer (aka. the one that has more privilege really CAN'T help in the same way is very interesting). All in all, this episode was very fun and I'm literally enjoying the way all of this is going ESPECIALLY with a new character coming to the scene next week!
