    • loved this episode! big episode for shi-kyung and jae-shin.

      i swear, if the writers kill shi-kyung off i won’t be able to sleep for a week!

      • me too………i hope Sk wont sacrifice himself for feeling guilty on his father’s actions….

  1. Hands down Ms. K love your recap. Thank you! I cried while watching it raw now I cried again by reading your comments because I fully understand what had happen. Indeed all characters stood out on its own have their moments and have it’s relevance in the drama. The drama that moves forward and keeps on surprising me week by week. Please make an aftermath blog after this drama. Thank you!

  2. Thanks koala, I have already watch the raw videos of the drama and have been staying all night waiting for your wonderful recap. Through out the last 17 episodes you are our source of joy in making us understand the drama so well, together we travel from the joy, heartaches / trials, i hope you will not let us down for the last 3 ep. Thanks:-)))

  3. I see how all pieces come together, memories becoming pictures, as we reaching to the end.
    Only link between RFamily and BG is yet to be seen…
    But at the same time PD sends so many hints, that if this was American drama we would have season 2.
    Acting superb as always…raw emotions to the core.
    Thanks Koala!

    • Exactly Mtoh.. I would 100% support if this drama have another Season just like American drama series.. Everything about TK2H is SUPERB!

  4. Awesomeness to this epic episode. Still three left, before taking goodbyes from this dramaa
    “sigh” just please let it end in a happy ending for both OTP’s Jae Ha-Hang Ah &
    Jae Shin-Shi Kyung.

    Pleassssseee be happpyyy “another longggg sigh”
    Waiting endllisly for Ep 18……

  5. THANKS a bunch Koala!! 😀 Im just browsing ur other post waiting for the recap and then ta-dah– here it is.. ^^

  6. What Kim Bong Gu’s gang did to Jae Shin was too much, it made me felt like suffocating, it’s insane. Psychological mindfucking, to the max.

  7. Ever heard of the term “Expect the unexpected”? This is what the TK2H tells you every episode in a sense that it gives you twist and turn that makes your head loopy in a good way. It even engages you to use your imagination and think of what’s going to happen next. I’m really glad that Okcoala unni decided to sail this ship and I’m proud to say that I’m part of the crew ^_*

    • That saying really fits the drama! I never expected that part of Jae Shin’s memories (her being forced to place the powder into the fireplace). All along I just assumed that the shock from jumping off the cliff black-ed out her memories.

      ohhhhhhhh, it’s getting so so good now. How bad-ass awesome was Hang Ah man? No wait Ha Ji Won is awesome, period. I love that we don’t get the usual kdrama heroine who’s strong but becomes a total pansy when kidnapped and just waits for the hero to rescue her.

      And I agree with you Ms.Koala. It aint gonna be as satisfying unless Jae Ha/Shi Kyung personally kills Bong Gu. Prison sentence is over-rated. Bong Gu needs to meet his maker

  8. if eun kyu tae’s testimony is not reliable. what about the queen dowager’s?
    I know she’s still weak, but I’m sure she will do anything to save her beloved daughter in law.
    she even meets bong gu face to face. and she even got threatened…
    If that’s not even a good one, then what can jae shin’s memory do to him?
    Jae shin didn’t even meet bong gu when she was tried to be killed.
    please… we need something to do to capture this hellish evil.

  9. My heart, it won’t stand still watching this episode. Now I really, really wish that Jae-Ha will find Hang-Ah in episode 18 cause if I have to wait for another week to see this two together again.. *sigh* (And they better be together again drama. Or else)

    And you’re right ms. Koala. That Jae-shin scene is painful to watch. So this is why she has been locking her memory inside.

    Now bring me some happy time drama, before we go full out to hunt Bong Goo down!

    • Yeah… JaeHa and HangAh have to be reunited soon cause I don’t think I can endure another week if they don’t get back together safely…

  10. Kim Bong Gu picked the wrong women to deal with.. Hang Ah, QM, even Jae Shin.. all of them are built to kill…. Hang Ah, you killed me with your sad acting to tell Jae Ha the hints of your current location. Cried, scream and suddenly fierce!!! I was so amazed to the max!!!!!

  11. I’m not sure there is any deep reason for BG to be so fixated on the Royal family. Especially JH. He is a lunatic after all, and sometimes that’s all there is.

    Anyway, I want the good guys all alive and well in the end. As for BG and Bon Bon, very slow and very painful ends are required at this point. After that, kill them again just to be sure. Kind of like zombies!

  12. Thank you Ms. Koala!
    Such a wonderful recap&insight!

    And the moment I remember that the writer was intend to ‘muder’ the former king with bomb in the original script…I was shaken…
    It’ll be much more impact yes, and it’ll be much more clear explanation about the handphone and the flaws in prev episode.

    But to Jae Shin..she won’t be able to forgive herself if the script do so. Remember, in this plot she was forced to placed the charcoal into the fireplace, Ms.Koala self describe this as ‘pulling the trigger’. But if that is a bomb…the original script might placed her as the one who push the bomb button, which is ‘pulling the trigger’ literally. And that is…unimaginable…sadist..there is no way Jae Shin will forgive herself after she remember that…
    Though it’s lesser impact than a bomb..but…I’m relieve the writers chose this way, there is no way I could handle Jae Shin’s sadness in the original script

  13. thank you koala unnie for the recaps ,,,, this episode full of tears and very surprise,,, jae shin scene so sad,,its so hard. Lee yoon gi acting is wonderfull, Hang ah / Ha ji won is really awesome.. cant wait for 18 episode. *Cry*

  14. Awesome writing, as always, my dear Captain. This drama has gripped me by the throat and has refused to let go. I am totally captured, ensnared, choked. Be that as it may, I surrender willingly. I am right in fright with Jae Ha and Hang Ah, and cry in pain with Jae Shin and my beloved Shi Kyung; I am awed by the strength and courage of Queen Mom.

    I hope show gives us some reprieve in the next watch. And I fully expect to jump and scream for the joy of victory next week when all our heroes and heroines triumph over the lair of evil scorpions. And then finally, show should supply us with some celebratory moments with the royal family, which of course, should already include SK, to make up for all these angst. O’course, I’m talkin’ kisses and weddings and babies! and JS walking again!

  15. i agree with your comments at the top.. i wonder how bong gu is connected to the royal family. why when bong gu was a kid, he wrote “i am KING”.. did someone from the royal family take something from his family?

  16. Thanks for your fast recap Ms.Koala.just By reading your re Shicap already makes me cry when Jae Shin regain her memory,Shi Kyung found out the truth obout his dad
    I cry with him.…i also feel the tension when Hang Ah a
    nd Queen Mother escape…now i need to have deep breath…hosh..hosh..

  17. I can’t contained my tears when I watch JS was forced to kill JK.. If the producer wish to make Season 2/3 or many more of TK2H, I will surely watch them.. Seriously, I have adrenaline rush watching this drama and it is beyond Normal K-Drama…. I feel like I’m watching my fav American series drama..

    Salute the writer and the crew.. And of course to Forever AMazing Yeoja.. HJW has never stop amazed me.. As for LSG~~ Finally from being a cute boy-actor.. He can act marvelously like a true King~~ Saranghae TK2H!!

  18. hehe you spelled lee yoon ji “lee yoon gi” at the bottom 🙂
    but anyways: this episode had me at the edge of my seat…i think i died…i cried so much. man, if something happens to either one of the four mains (seung gi, jiwon, yoon ji, jung suk)….i will…i don’t know yet. but i will definitely do something. haha

    oh my poor shikyung….he can’t bear to have the princess in so much pain…props to the cast..they are brilliant actors and actresses <3

  19. O.M.G!!! I will be clapping along with you Koala….my poor monitor took a beating today from my yelling at poor Jae Shin’s memory, what she was forced to do!! Comeuppance for bad guys where are you? I loved the episode raw then your recap and now I cannot wait to get home and watch it with eng subbs.
    Thanks for the recap appreciate it very much!

  20. Wasn’t this episode amazing? All the actors have been amazing and my heart just breaks for Jae Shin. Thanks for the recap!

  21. Another daebak episode, koala, thank you so much for the very fast recap.

    It’s amazing that this drama develop each character with so much depth. Not only the OTP, but the STP and the other characters too. I hope that Shi Kyung will have a happy ending with Jae Shin.

    Didn’t expect that Jae Shin was the one who poured the charcoal powder, and it now made sense why she always freaks out everytime she hears that music. Lee Yoon Ji’s performance stood out this episode, I cried with her T__T Once again, solid performance from all casts.

  22. Thank you sooooooooooooooooo mucho for the recap!!! <3
    Poor JS *sobs* My heart broke down when JS remembered what those f$#%£€¥ B%#*£¥€+ made her do!

  23. Last night’s episode is awesome! My heart goes out to poor Shi Kyung and the princess. I love how the writer was able to give the spotlight to them in this episode, it brings out their talents even more. What happened last night shows that the Princess and the Royal Guard are not just accessories of the drama but they are equally important as well to make this drama even more beautiful. Is it too much to demand a happy ending to the couples Jae Ha-Hang Ah and of course Jae Shin-Shi Kyung? (And a part of me says Bong Goo and Bon Bon should suffer hard ..like I want the remaining two episodes showing how these two devils suffer while our leads are happy together 😀 )

  24. This episode (like all others!) is so well done that it almost defies description. I had to take some time and process all that happened.

    I’m SO GLAD Earnest-bot found out about daddy’s misdeeds by reading it in dad’s own handwriting. Even though his perfect world of honesty is shattered, he still had the loyalty and integrity to remember Jae Ha trying to spare him the real reason for Secretary Eun’s dismissal.

    And who knew Jae Shin’s repressed memory would be *this* dramatic?! To have had an albeit unwilling hand in her brother’s death…..Oof….that’s almost to much to bear.

    Last but not least, Queen Mom and Hang Ah….. How effing great is it to see drama women taking care of themselves?! Don’t get me wrong – I’m all for leaning on the big strong man in good times and bad, but this time the heroine gets to solve her own problems, so to speak. Then she and Jae Ha can come back together. Stronger!

  25. I give my shoulder to you, Shi Kyung oppa… *tears falling* T_T

    Jae Shin was forced to kill her brother. Ommo… It’s so sad and unpredictable. TK2H, Jjang!!!!

  26. thanks alot for recap.
    I loved every second of this episode.I saw it several times.how can this feels so real and great
    thumbs up for the story and actors.
    js was so beautiful that i feel pain and just want to see her taking down evil boyes by her own hands.
