Heart to Heart - Episode 10

Heart to Heart

Episode 10

Like a scene from a melodrama, face to face, we find Cha Hong Do, Jang Doo Soo, Go Yi Seok & Go Se Ro. Doo Soo is holding Hong Do’s arm while the others watch.

At the supermarket, Hong Do is smiling while the ‘ugly’ employees talk to her and even mention how red her face is. She is happy none the less. It’s the first time she shops in a supermarket. Yi Seok then asks her is she can cook. She does, she had been making side dishes for 7 years for Doo Soo. That’s why Yi Seok gets all jealous by himself and in turn Hong Do gets happy because he is jealous.

Granpa Go is sick and can’t go to the concert, so he has asked his assistant to call ‘Granny Hong Do’ and tell her they won’t go but he doesn’t want to reveal that he’s sick.

Hong Do is with Yi Seok in his apartment. They are gonna cook for each other. At that time Hong Do gets a phone call but she doesn’t answer. Its probably Grandpa Go’s assistant to give her the news. Yi Seok sees her hanging the phone and jokingly warns her not to cheat on him.


Just when they are all lovey dovey Yi Seok gets a call letting him know that his grandfather is in the hospital. Now, Hong Do knows! They leave the apartment, each one their way, with promise of re-taking it another day.

At her house, Doo Soo is waiting for Hong Do. He brings her food from his friend restaurant so she can (finally) try it. She half-heartedly takes it and he leaves.


At her door the box with Grandpa Go’s dress present is also waiting for her. Right then, she receives a call from Granpa Go’s assistant telling her that the plans have been cancelled. Granpa Go picks up the phone and asks her if she likes the gift. 


He then practically confesses to her and when he hangs up he is happy as goat.

Hong Do is relieved that Granpa Go is ok but a bit burdened y the gift. Then in the bag with Doo Soo’s food she finds a hairpin that he left for her as a present.

The next day Hong Do goes to the bank on her own. She asks for a loan. Yi Seok calls her right then to ask if she had cooked for him but she forgot.

At the police station a news team will be following Detetive Yang and Doo Soo and filming their work for a news article.


They are about to go out to look for a subject when Se Ro comes in. She is there to ‘gain experience for her new role’. And she is wearing high heels. Jaja She’s crazy like that.


Hong Do tells Yi Seok everything about her taking a loan to pay back Doo Soo for the payment he made for her. Then they start kissing. This is a habit now.


But then Grandpa Go arrives at the office!!


Grandpa Go wasn’t happy by the scene he found. After all Yi Seok has a bad reputation. He tells Yi Seok that he is settling all his affairs. He asks him to start settling himself and recommends that he go on a blind date with the daughter of a rich family.

Later in the car, Hong Do is jealous of the blind date proposition but Yi Seok shakes her worries away. Hong Do confesses that she would like to marry some day and Yi Seok practically lets her know that he’ll introduce her formally to his family later on.

Hong Do is waiting in front of Doo Soo’s house to give him back the money. She sends him a text saying that she needs to give something back. He won’t be able or willing to go there since he is at a stake out for a criminal.

Doo Soo goes chasing the criminal and later when he is at the police station tells her they won’t be able to meet today. I absolutely hate seeing him like this!

Meanwhile, Yi Seok is so in love that he is running around in his bicycle during the night.


He is so in love that he goes to Hong Do’s house in the middle of the night just because he wants to see her. He went there is his car, just in case. He sees her and decides to leave. He tells her they should take things slowly. He also tells her that he loves her. Repeatedly.


The next morning ‘Granny Hong Do’ goes to the Go mansion decided to quit. She doesn’t want to deceive them any longer. Just before going in, she gets a call from Doo Soo and they agree to see each other later. I have to admit; Hong Do rarely breaks character while she’s on her granny costume. Points for that!

Se Ro is making her presence known once more at the police station. She bought expensive coffee for everyone and put a crystal vase with flowers in Doo Soo’s desk. He is rejecting her every step. She instead lingers around him.


He made her take the flowers away. When Detective Yang offered to take them, she just took them without another word.

‘Granny Hong Do’ meets with Grandpa Go. He starts talking about a poem; anyone can tell he’s going to propose any moment now. Instead, ‘Granny Hong Do’ takes the lead and tells him she can’t work with him anymore. He immediately gets chest pains and ‘Granny Hong Do’ starts patting his back. He says he feels better when she did.

It seems Yi Seok is now confessing all his sins. Nah, he’s just opening up to his mentor Dr. Uhm.


He always had fear of patients because he couldn’t help his mom and was afraid they knew he had that incompetent side. But since Hong Do came into his life, he wanted to become a better self. He is all cured now of that fear but doesn’t tell Hong Do anything because he wants to be with her. He’s about to tell something else to Dr. Uhm but her mobile starts ringing and he say he has noting more.

Hong Do has arrived to work. She cooked a Thai dish that Yi Seok really likes. Just then Dr. Uhm says Yi Seok needs to make a consult at Gangnam Police Station, where Doo Soo works. He is caught in his own web, since he doesn’t want Hong Do to go, but doesn’t want to tell her he can see patients without her now.

In the end they go together. Doo Soo is all smiles for Hong Do and when she tries to give back the money he won’t accept it. Of course Yi Seok keeps interrupting every word of the conversation.

They see the criminal who has been setting various fires around. He’s trying to get a mental disease diagnose to get a reduce sentence but Yi Seok notices he’s lying. Hong Do notices that the criminal has matches hidden in his socks. When she mentions this, he attacks and grabs her by the neck as a hostage. Yi Seok, Doo Soo and Detective Yang jump to rescue her and put him under control once more.

Doo Soo finds Hong Do outside. She, once again, tries to give back the money but he just won’t take it. He puts her back in her pocket and explodes, saying what he’s wanting to say all this time.


He wants to go back as things were before. When she was in love with him and away from Yi Seok.

Yi Seok comes out followed by Se Ro. He urges Hong Do to come to his side but Doo Soo grabs her arm and tells him he won’t let her. He wont sent her to Yi Seok. Yi Seok gets mad and keeps telling Hong Do to come by his side or he will leave. So, Hong Do makes Doo Soo release her arm. Se Ro is surprised by the sudden love triangle that is taking place before her eyes.  Yi Seok grabs Se Ro by her hand too and makes her leave not before forbidding her of talking to Jang Doo Soo.

Granpa Go called for the Housekeeper. He is asking questions of what ifs. He wants to know how a woman like her, that has been alone for so many years, would react if a man like him would propose to her to live together. She gets all flustered, since she likes him, and says she would know when the question was asked. She’s getting her hopes high but he’s asking because he wants to know how ‘Granny Hong Do’ will react.


I told you, this is a habit now.


Hong Do knitted a scarf for Yi Seok and even thou he hates the colour; he says he will wear it because he’s trying his best.

Grandpa Go has pimped himself up and is ready to go on a date. Only, ‘Granny Hong Do’ has really no idea she is going on a date. Poor Housekeeper, she almost chocked when she was told Granpa Go was going on a date. She might as well start crying and whining.

At the police station Se Ro padded all the corners of the desks so that the officers won’t get hurt. She also put the flowers in milk cartons so that no one can use the crystal vase as a weapon. She left post-it notes practically saying Doo Soo is her first love. Doo Soo, seeing all these details looks touched and a little smile is creeping into his mouth and his eyes.


Grandpa Go was waiting in a fancy restaurant and as soon as ‘Granny Hong Do’ arrived he proposed to her and showed hear a huge pearl ring. He just told her “Let’s live together”.


Just then her mobile rang. A bit flustered, Grandpa Go excused himself to the bathroom. Hong Do picked her call and it was Yi Seok who is actually waiting in the other room. He heard a ruckus that was caused in the table next to Hong Do’s and noticed it was the same thing he was hearing live. He walks slowly to ‘Granny Hong Do’ and discovered that it was Hong Do in disguise.



That way we end this chapter. Will Yi Seok send Hong Do away for deceiving him? Maybe not, if he lets her talk and listens to what she has to say. After all, she had already quitted her job at the mansion. But he’s a jerk, so I wouldn’t be surprised if he doesn’t hear her reasons. It seems that Se Ro’s tenacious and insistent character could be able to turn Doo Soo’s heart. Maybe he really likes the attention and the little details and that’s why he fell for Hong Do. Since Se Ro is doing all these now, he could spare her a look. I would like that. He deserves someone who loves him for real and Se Ro is really into him. I also like her character very much so it would be a great match. I also like how Hong Do used the helmet even less during this episode. That means she is more confident in herself to go out without it. Also that she cares about how her hair smells.

Heart to Heart - Episode 9

Heart to Heart

Episode 9

This episode starts with a lot of common people emphasizing the things they like the most about themselves while Go Yi Seok ruins it for them.


It starts were we left, Hong Do sees Yi Seok holding a woman and then Doo Soo finds her on the floor. What a triangle! He takes her out and she fights, wanting to go back in. She thinks it might me a patient, even if she is not, there must be an explanation. Doo Soo refuses to let her in and when Yi Seok comes out she recognizes the other girl as the ex girlfriend, who is now calling Yi Seok ‘darling’.


Doo Soo shouts at Yi Seok and makes Hong Do get in the car. They both start a silly manly display and part ways, each with a girl.

Yi Seok goes with his ex to eat some dessert. Don’t worry its actual dessert. There he notices she has anxiety as if something is bothering her. Is because of her wedding that’s just around the corner. She tells him that just this time, she wants to hang and play with him. She then confesses that she doesn’t love her fiancĂ© and asks Yi Seok to hold on to her.


Doo Soo brings Hong Do to his friend’s restaurant, again. She seems down because she’s waiting for Yi Seok to call her and explain.

Doo Soo gets a bit agitated because he doesn’t want her to get hurt and tells Hong Do that Yi Seok is clearly playing with her.


Yi Seok arrives home. He’s calling Hong Do and puts his phone on speaker. Just then Se Ro comes in asking him if he knows Detective Jang Doo Soo. She notices a lipstick stain on his shirt and starts questioning him about it. Hong Do hears all this conversation.


She then decides to speak up and Yi Seok picks up his phone. He is calling her to give her another chance. She tells him that just as he said, they are over. She admits that she heard everything and tells him how sad she feels. At least she told him up front and didn’t just hang up.

I say!


Doo Soo talks to his friend and tells him that he wishes he could turn back time because he thinks he’s doing everything wrong.

The housekeeper is acting all jealous and indirectly tells ‘Granny Hong Do’ to watch herself because it looks as if she’s trying to seduce Grandpa Go.


Now ‘Granny Hong Do’ is leaving the Go mansion. Go Yi Seok sees her and offers her a ride. She refuses and calls him a cheap man. Jejeje. But, he looks at her straight in the face and doesn’t recognize her!! It doesn’t matter that her make up is good. He must notice something strange!

Doo Soo is waiting for her outside. He wants to give her a ride as well. Just then Yi Seok comes out of the house. As they always do, they shout at each other. Still, Yi Seok didn’t notice is Hong Do in disguise. Doo Soo takes her away.

He tells her how he hates that she’s surrounded by everything Yi Seok.


But Hong Do then tells him that she lies to people for her own benefit, like the Go family, let it them believe that she’s an old woman. She tells him that he (Doo Soo) is too good for her.

Yi Seok is bragging to Dr. Uhm about his ex girlfriend. She point out that he treated her and didn’t have any fit. They wonder if it was because he didn’t think of her as a patient or if he’s all cured.

Hong Do is in the office, decided to work and get her counselling. She then learned that he saw his ex as a patient.

Detective Yang is pestering Doo Soo to go with him on a date. Not like that. A double date he set up with some people from the Internet.


Meanwhile Yi Seok wants to take Hong Do in the next stage of her therapy. She needs to go to the supermarket and try the sampling booths.


Meanwhile Yi Seok wants to take Hong Do in the next stage of her therapy. She needs to go to the supermarket and try the sampling booths.

Hong Do is having a very difficult time but taking small steps. Just then, Yi Seok gets a call from his ex. She is crying and asking him to come look for her. He proceeds to run to her as he just calls Hong Do telling her that he needs to meet his ex, that she can take a cab and go home. Hong Do is freaking out. This is why I still hate Yi Seok. She is having a really hard time and he just leaves her there. He could have at least help her out. He abandoned her when she needed him.

Yi Seok picks his ex who does look like she’s about to have a panic attack but as a normal person she can take it. She takes out Yi Seok’s mobile battery when his phone starts ringing.

Hong Do is calling him. She ran off and is hiding in the supermarket’s storage room.


She got locked in and still Yi Seok doesn’t answer her calls.

Yi Seok’s ex is acting like a crazy person. She caught her fiancĂ© cheating on her but since he’s rich she can’t cancel the wedding because her parents are really happy she’s marring a chaebol.


Hong Do finally calls Doo Soo for help. He runs to her and being a cop he gets help very easy and takes her out.

For the first time Hong Do sits at the front in Doo Soo’s car.


Yi Seok, talking to his ex just realized he truly is in love with Hong Do.


He calls Hong Do and she lies, telling him that she got out well and that she was just sleeping. Being sharp Yi Seok, he doesn’t notice that she answers him crying.

Doo Soo is waiting for Yi Seok. As soon as he gets down from his car to confront him, Doo Soo connects a jab right in his face. Ah! I love it how Doo Soo never lets me down! Jang Doo Soo! Jang Doo Soo!


He is giving a proper beating to Go Yi Seok who instead starts fighting dirtily and sloppily. They only stop when the police arrive but Doo Soo quickly sends them off. Now they are drinking together. Men. This means they are trying to out drink the other.


Doo Soo tells Yi Seok what really happened to Hong Do that day and swears he won’t let Yi Seok hurt Hong Do. He will bring her back next to him. Yi Seok won’t concede.

Hong Do has decides to stop dressing as her grandmother and says that she really really likes Yi Seok.

Doo Soo wakes up and he finds himself in Yi Seok’s bedroom. Doo Soo tries to sneak out but Se Ro sees him. Boy she looks happy!


She practically confesses to him. She tells him that they are really compatible and that she knows he can take everything that she says and does. He just treats her like she’s crazy. Se Ro sneaks a quick kiss on his cheek. The housekeeper sees this and comes quickly, he then very politely, apologizes for ‘having taken advantage of her hospitality’ and leaves. The housekeeper seems impressed by him. Se Ro tells him that she will meet him at the police station. She has a role as a police officer and she wants ‘hands on’ experience. Jaja I bet she just needs to stand against a wall or something but she’s once more overreacting.

Grandpa Go has received an invitation to a special concert. He has been told to go with his girlfriend. Since he has none, he says he’s not going. Of course he won’t give up the ticket either. Then his assistant tell him if would be nice to give ‘Granny Hong Do’ a nice gala dress, that way she could use it to go to a concert. And Grandpa Go is really considering it. Jajaja

Grandpa Go’s assistant calls ‘Granny Hong Do’ and tells her she has ‘evening work’ that day. She just agrees.
By this time, the housekeeper has found out that Grandpa Go intends to take ‘Granny Hong Do’ to the concert so she’s being sensitive and complaining about it.

Then Yi Seok is remembering all the time he mistreated and took Hong Do’s helmet. Oh, happy memories!

Hong Do is at the police station; she has gone there to thank Doo Soo personally for rescuing her yesterday.


He tells her that is his time to be by her side for 7 years.

Yi Seok meets with the people we saw at the beginning. He tells them she’s preparing an event and gives them a bonus for their help.

Grandpa Go and his assistant are at ‘Granny Hong Do’s’ house. They are here to deliver the dress.


But then he receives a call about someone he knows that just died. Because of these shocking news he collapses holding his chest.

Hong Do arrives at the clinic and confronts Yi Seok. She asks him if he was playing with her and how come he could see a patient without her? He lies and tells her that he felt like dying when he did.


Yi Seok takes her back to the supermarket and this time she is more decided and walks to one of the sampling booths. Here is one of Yi Seok’s helpers. He looks dashing.


Hong Do notices the extreme look on the others as well. She knows that is Yi Seok’s doing and is really happy that there are people uglier than her. Just kidding; but no.


This is all for episode 9. Incredible, Hong Do has 3 guys in love with her. Also Yi Seok and Hong Do solved their problem quite neatly. I am still suffering for Doo Soo. I have to admit I love watching Se Ro’s character. She’s funny and always comes up with something unexpected while over reacting to everything and making it bigger. The house keeper is about to have a rage fit and confess to Grandpa Go but I’m afraid she’s gonna get a bit hurt when she does.
