New Video Preview for Episode 15 of In A Good Way

Those not watching In A Good Way are totally missing out on the best mood enhancer available right now. The new video preview for episode 15 just dropped and I swear it was an instantaneous pick me up. I’m grinning cheek-to-cheek and rolling around like I’m sixteen and tomorrow’s the prom with the cute guy I have a crush on. In A Good Way should be re-titled In a Good Mood because that’s exactly what it does for me. I’m still floating up in the air from the awesome confession in episode 14, one that really takes the cake in both emotional breakthrough and logical progression. We’ve seen Jia En grow from a clueless insecure girl into the thoughtful and take charge person before our eyes when she reached out to Liu Chuan and pulled him back from the edge of his own mental roadblock. So he isn’t as perfect as he wants to be, so he would ask for help from the very powers that he abhors, so he isn’t above the fray and has to roll around in the muck when push comes to shove. I hope Liu Chuan really starts to step down from his perch of untainted principles and is willing to live fully in a world that isn’t so black and white. His dad still is a giant douche but he’s still the dad and I think Liu Chuan has a lot more to learn than to either be super nice to the people he likes or super cold to the ones he doesn’t.

I love Jia En’s interpersonal skills more, she’s direct and less rigid with her beliefs, plus she is really patient and gives people space and time to work things through. She gave Bai Xue a lot of room to work through her feelings for Liu Chuan and that was rewarded by Bai Xue giving her the okay and genuinely being fine with it. The preview for episode 15 shows that the OTP is finally together as a couple, but in their typical fashion the early parts start off with equal bits hilarity and tooth aching cuteness. The drama is really great about following through on narrative threads and elements, and the phone call sequences between Jia En and Liu Chuan have been awesome whether it’s tentative calls about “what are you doing?” to calls on making a date to missed calls leading to angsty voicemails and now to calls that have an unexpected third person on the line. For those of us who came of age before the cell phone era, phone calls with a crush really were done on the home land line and involved the risk of random family members picking up from another handset and either listening in or even starting to dial without even checking. LOL, those really were the good ole days.
