I had completely forgotten about the cable time restraints! I wonder what it would have been like full length. I don't know that I'd want to change it at all though. The episodes always fly by for me.
There are elements of Tae-hee's character that I find enjoyable/entertaining, but she is definitely starting to wear on me. I mean, honestly, what is her character arc? If it's supposed to be her learning to grow up and survive without her father than they need to show that. We know she has this raw talent... but that's kind of it.
I keep waiting for them to do something with Do-sung. I mean, there's plenty of potential there (ditto Byung-gun). Maybe their stories will come to the forefront in the last half of the show?
Not that I really want them to... because I really enjoy Doo-ri. I want to see her get free of her mother and find out what she really wants for herself. And, you know, to a slightly lesser extent... totally get it on with her hot mess of a professor.
Oh man, I hadn't even considered a Doo-ri/Byung-gun relationship! I love the idea of them as buddies though. I think they'd balance each other out really well.

But yes, AWESOME SHOW.
