Written Preview for Episode 9 of Jang Ok Jung, Live in Love

Episode 8 of Jang Ok Jung, Live in Love might’ve turned the switch on for some drama viewers on the fence about watching, but I’ve been all-in since episode 1 and what made this episode a fantastic gripping one was not the rain kiss but everything else that led up to it. This was not about seeing Yoo Ah In and Kim Tae Hee finally kiss, or seeing Lee Soon and Ok Jung finally kiss, this was about the two of them acknowledging candidly their attraction but dealing with it in the context of their night-and-day positions in life. He is the King, she is the daughter of a slave woman. That’s pretty much as far apart as they can get, and I loved Ok Jung’s analogy that he is the sky and even if she’s walked miles to get to the Palace to find Lee Soon, when she discovered Lee Soon was the King, then the road to him is so vast even traversing the Heavens and the Earth she cannot reach him. So poetic and hopeless, so accepting of her lot in life. Which is why I loved it even more when Lee Soon gets angry, because he refuses to let the Heavens dictate his life and when he sees the woman he desires pushing him away because of pre-ordained notions of suitability, that pushes him over the edge. When he steps down, steps into dirty water, steps towards her because she refuses to climb to him, my heart burst into tears of joy and sorrow. They are so very meant to be because they both want to break the chains of their life and love the person they want. This drama gets me right there in the gut and it hurts so good. Check out the written preview for episode 9 as well as the BTS of the kiss below (the screencaps from that BTS above show how hard it is to film and how unromantic it is in doing so).

Written preview for episode 9:

Prince Dongpyung drinks with Lee Soon and asks with a smile whether there is a woman that Lee Soon loves? On the other hand, Ok Jung gets the bedding from Lee Soon’s eunuch and heads over to Lee Soon’s bedchambers…….

  • Have you seen the video of the main cast interview each other? Yoo Ah In is asked what is his best feature or something, and his answer: his butt.

  • I am SOOOOOO in love with this drama! Am I a weirdo for replaying the rain kiss over and over even in the BTS footage?!?

    • Don't worry we all lost count.
      And yet, each time I play it, it's just as good as the first time I watched it.

    • dude i am not exaggerating i have watched the end scene like 15 times already....like i am so obsessed with it

  • Wweerrr.....what???? OJ's been 'summoned' to sleep with LS? Ok....i wasnt expecting this. I thought he'd wait till she officially became his concubine....wait.....is this a cop-out from the scriptwriters? Are they teasing us??

    • This.
      I bet they are just teasing us.. I mean bedchambers, already?! It's only episode 8 out of 24 and already the first kiss, declaration of love, and now maybe sleeping together? Stop the presses..
      I don't want this show to lose steam halfway through its run trying to throw out all its good stuff to gain more viewers.

      • Me neither!! :( Humh! must have a word with Mr Writer :D
        Mr Writer(s); Hope that you're not going to kill our pleasure just to please the new viewers.
        "Why Hamburger when we can have the top class STEAK".
        Thank you Miss K <3

        L O V E for Jang Ok Jung
        L ~ lake of sorrows
        O ~ ocean of tears
        V ~ valley of death
        E ~ end of life

  • The making of kissing scene is so funny! And when they're on it, they're really ON! Soooo hot! And woot woot..written preview for episode 9 is such a tease!

  • Totally agree that it's not just about the kiss itself. I doubt I would've loved that scene as much if it wasn't for the circumstances that led to that kiss. The build up was superb.

    And yes, this drama just hurts so good. It's been a while since I've shipped an OTP this hard. ;A;

  • Oh... They are soo teasing us with the bedding thing. Maybe he made her fix all his bed sheets too while he was making her fix every single outfit he had at his disposal. :) stop teasing us drama!! If it is in a preview, it's definitely meant to throw us off. I can't wait for the video preview. Please drama don't ruin the early love part. Throw us a bone. Stay with the cute and the hot and the sweet. :)

    • Totally agree. Hoping that they just don't take our anticipation away with something awful like the queen or something comes by to his chamber.

    • I think LeeSoon wants to keep her by his side as his PA (also his own personal chambermaid ) :D . I bet the writer is clever enough, he won't turn BEAUTY into the BEAST in order to get more viewers, no-way!
      I can imagine Dowager Queen Kim's nightmare would come since she knew from fortune teller (ep5) that "the next Queen (InHyun) will be fine, but with the new Queen ( ? ) will come, someone who will bring strife to Palace and opposition to the Dowager Queen" means Noron court lady.
      I think LeeSoon will marry Min InHyun soon to chat his mum up about OkJung :D :D

  • So I loved how you described Epi#8 in first Para. I was too crying (not sure why..) but yes seeing The SKY the KING coming down to HER, just to let her know that HE CANT be apart from her, he loves her more than his so called GREATNESS. this confession is the best among al the current shows and m sure I wont be seeing any of such TRUE to HEART confessions in near future.
    Thanks a ton sharing the writen preview.

  • Thank you for your describe of the kiss and the translation...
    Bu I think may be something happen when she is heading to the king chamber
