There were no new episodes of Encounter (Boyfriend) this week and only time will tell if the preemption will hurt its momentum and ratings. Episode 8 ended on a swoony kiss and confirmation that the flirtatious some relationship of leads Jin Hyuk and Soo Hyun is now flat out like, but they don’t have the luxury of just dating like normal people to figure out if they are compatible in the long haul. It feels like all or nothing because of all the pressure, and grasping needy people around Soo Hyun, forcing the couple to either stay apart or make some sort of public stand.
That’s unfortunate because while I think Jin Hyuk is what Soo Hyun needs and wants right now it’s not certain they are meant to be forever and I’m fine with that. I’m watching a snapshot moment in a relationship and it’s lovely but the drama villains are manufacturing momentous decisions when none are necessitated by life hence what should be standard lover progression moments take on significance. The breather this week may foreshadow a breather between the OTP as well as the just release preview for episode 9 shows that Jin Hyuk’s personal life goes through the ringer and there may be a separation in store, with a reunion to come.

PBG 's smile is beginning to creep me out.
Can’t wait for Ep9!! Going back to Cuba will be great for our eyes. The cinematography was gorgeous at Cuba! CSH also looks so much more relaxed when she was in Cuba the first episode.
What’s wrong with Park Bo Gum’s mouth? Too creepy
His mouth look creepy because his cult controversy??????
It's his ill fitting fake teeth that makes his mouth look like a ventriloquist's puppet
Was trying for the longest to describe whats odd about his smile. You are so spot on.
How on earth can this cringy smile & oversized dentures be considered attractive is beyond me. He looks sooooo freaky ?
Lol. I laughed so much reading all this comment about PBG's mouth, teeth and smile. Something to inspire Big Bang's Taeyang to write a follow up to his famous "Eyes Nose and Lips".
I wish he didn't get veneers. But I bet he has the money to find a new dentist to make his teeth more natural than just flat out straight, it's honestly stealing his handsomeness lol
His fake smile is so annoying.
PBG's picture reminds me The Mask :D
It's not that his smile is fake - his teeth are too straight.
Just like BYJ (Bae Yong-jun) looked and felt kinda plastic, once he had his teeth all straightened out but yet managed to send his legions of Winter Sonata fans reeling. He was more endearing before, as his earlier Frank Shin character (and slightly crooked teeth) in Hotelier.
There're few kids in NAmerica (thanks to all the insurance packages) that are NOT in braces, once they turn 12 or 13. It's $5000 package advocated by the Dentists, with 2 yrs of visits and follow up Billing all nicely secured. And really - you get way too many politician and real estate sales-folk type smiles, along with the sunbed fake tans.
WTF you're talking about? ?
Finally..CSH will get to see what was written on the note. Can't wait for next episodes!
yesss...can we hope for another kiss after that? hahaha...I am so invested with 'Encounter' to the point finding the meaning of the ost,poem and arts that they included in the drama.
Glad I wasn't the only one. Been spending time analysing the littlest details I could find in the drama. Lol
How can I wait another week? haishhh....miss the two of them already!
I don't mind that they didn't air the drama this week cause I am on a marathon watching SHK's drama. So in love with her now, just like kim jin hyuk to cha soo hyun,LOL.
The funny thing is the bench on the trailer was same as lotbs.. Same spot. Am i the only one that noticed it.
