Her friends tell her the same thing, and she wonders if Seung-jo will hate it if she’s there every day. She tells her to screw pride and just stick to Seung-jo like glue, and make sure she sees him every day. She even coaches Ha-ni to not let He-ra get anywhere with Seung-jo. I love how she never hides her disdain for Ha-ni’s competition. He-ra shows up at the table to say hi, throwing Mom into a tizzy, “What are YOU doing here?” Hahaha. Seung-jo doesn’t even go through the motions of being upset, since this is pretty much par for the course with Ha-ni and Mom. So, you think your genius son can’t tell who you are, because you’re wearing a hat and sunglasses? Silly, silly family. Sure enough, they show up in disguises, thinking that they’re pretty slick. Ha-ni realizes her screw up a minute too late (I know you’re not bright, but really, Ha-ni?) and frets over Seung-jo’s imminent anger. Mom can’t wait to sneak a peak, and plans to stalk him at work tomorrow. So of course, she goes straight home and blurts everything to Mom. He doesn’t say no, but he does remind her not to say anything about it at home. She asks Seung-jo if she can come by again the next day, which he brushes off as unwelcome. She rubs Ha-ni’s nose in it, in her haughty way, making me want to push her face through a row of chocolate pies. While eating, Ha-ni sees a job posting in the restaurant, so she runs over to get a part-time job, only to find that the last position has just been filled-by He-ra of course. Why? What do you want your parents to think you’re doing to pay the rent, standing on a street corner?
He just nonchalantly says that he expected her to show at some point (smug bastard), and tells her to keep her mouth shut about it at home. She finally stops him to say hi, and asks if he’s mad that she came. He stays strictly formal with her, just doing his job, but the interaction is enough to bring Ha-ni to tears, because it’s been so long since they’ve spoken. Ha-ni meanders about what to order, as Seung-jo appears at the table. They arrive at the restaurant where Kyung-soo works on weekends, since that’s also where he got Seung-jo a job as a server. Ha-ni continues to zombie out at school and tennis practice, until Kyung-soo offers up a trade: if she buys dinner, he’ll take her to the place where Seung-jo works.
Her friends sigh that she’s returned to her high school situation, back to square one with Seung-jo.
She’s back to being scared, thinking that he wants nothing to do with her. She sees him pass by on campus, but she’s so deflated that she doesn’t even want to try talking to him. She bemoans the fact that school is now their only connection, and she’s sure that Seung-jo will soon forget all about her. Ha-ni just watches tearfully, unable to say anything, and Seung-jo gives her one silent lingering look as he walks out. True to his word, Seung-jo packs up right away and leaves. But I’ll let that plot point go, since it’s nice to have some emotional changes, as Ha-ni struggles to let Seung-jo go, her friends step up to defend her, and Seung-jo struggles to feel feelings. Looks like JB’s got some competition in the curly-bedhead-making department! Much of the usual upbeat tone is tamped down in this episode, due to a big misunderstanding that, well, nobody but Ha-ni believes. 364 OctoJanuPlayful Kiss: Episode 10 by girlfriday
