I have a feeling that the slap heard around the dramaverse at the end of episode 6 of Spy Myung Wol will be real and simply be accepted within the context of the drama. Much like Thai lakorns and their heroes with a propensity for raping the heroine before falling madly in love (yes, I do not understand either), slapping is just so oddly prevalent in K-dramas. I watched WHIB where the hero got the tar beat out of him by his father with a golf club. None of it is acceptable in real life, but in drama fiction it’s not something that sways my interest or lack thereof in the drama. I hope this drama gets its act together soon, or at least remain amusingly oddball.
Written preview for episode 7:
The unexpected leak of a love scandal between Kang Woo and Myung Wol leaves both uncomfortable with the situation, and in the end Kang Woo fires Myung Wol. Immediately upon returning home, Kang Woo feels the emptiness of his house keenly now that Myung Wol is not around, causing him to feel flustered. Furthermore, Kang Woo is starting to get annoyed with Chairman Joo constantly telling him what to do, and he also starts to get suspicious about Choi Ryu.
Ok Soon and Hee Bok find out from Myung Wol that she’s been fired, aware of how important this development is. It gets their spirits up and they decide to once again assist Myung Wol in getting closer to Kang Woo. Since Kang Woo is immune to seduction tactics and threats, Ok Soon must show her final card. On the day of Kang Woo’s showcase, Myung Wol plans to kidnap Kang Woo and waits for him in her car.

This drama was apparently in talks with C-actor Ding Yu Xi before his just aired…
This year 2024 has been a slow year for K-actress Suzy in terms of her…
There are weird casting choices and this one is weird from both the leads itself…
Well this is an interesting pairing, setting aside the age difference at least I can…
I swear I just wrote about Song Joong Ki having his first baby and then…
At the end of the day, the core of any good drama remains the Story,…

Wow this is so cool aftergoing back to home the recaps already present. Supa cool. I havent watched the 2 recent episodes since your recaps always come handy in my baby t. Your recaps are really a big help. Thank u. God bless.
KIDNAPPING! Yeeeessssss, this is going to be great! Hahaha can't you just see how hilarious Myung-wol's attempt to kidnap Kang-woo is going to be?
Wow... I wonder if they aren't leaving this whole living-together-body-guard plot concept prematurely. If she blows her cover... where can they go from here? (:
So, Thai lakorns have rape (why, why, why?!) and Korean dramas have slaps. What would you say are the foibles of Taiwanese, Japanese, and Chinese dramas, if any?
Your the best! Always up with the latest, Thank you!
thanks Koala..I like coming back here and read all your recaps.....
It's so funny hearing you reference to "Thai Drama." I, myself, don't understand it either when the heroine fall for the hero after the rape scene.
Anyhow, just thought it's funny knowing you're familiar w/ Thai drama.
can't wait episode 7
omo!! this drama just gets exciting!!
I hope the video preview gets out SOOOON...
I was already so shocked with the cultural slapping thingy, but rape? Good grief!
