The Great Seducer Live Recap Episodes 23 and 24

I am literally watching this show to see what happens because there is no possible way I can guess my way through it. The preview is my only hint, which spells misfortune for everyone and most pressingly for Suk-woo who has an accident while driving due to his failing eyesight. My question is, what was he doing driving with failing eyesight?

OPENING
SHWhat is this? Eun tae-hee will complain that it is noisy while sleeping
TH – Are you afraid of the thunder?
SH – No
TH – you can pick me up from school with an umbrella
SH – What do you want to do right now?
TH – Right now?
SH – Do you want to see me and talk?

TH goes to SH’s room with both of them laughing as she carried her pillow to his place. SZ sees this from the elevator. She is destroyed at the sight. She goes back down to SJ who is holding an umbrella, but she is too stunned to talk to him and just looks off at nothing.

Meanwhile SZ and TH are happily talking in bed together. They joke about their dreams being realized as the rain falls outside. SH watches TH sleeping, but she isn’t sleeping and asks him why he isn’t sleep. He says that he wants to tell her a lot, she tells him it is that he thinks a lot and to not worry about the future. When he goes out to run…don’t worry about things in advance. You look like you worry about unneccessary things. They keep talking and she jokes that she is his noona since she is 3 months older. They talk about him meeting the woman his appa is seeing and how they should just sleep.

She falls asleep and he tucks her in. then he goes to his desk and checks his drawings. He flips to an empty page

Note: I would like to confess a long a difficult confession to you.

SH’S APARTMENT
TH lets herself into SH’s apartment and rolls him out of bed. She tells him that they should work out as she hits him on the back. they go out running, but she rides a bycicle while he runs next to her. It’s so unfair! But she keeps riding it and he keeps running.

Then he drops her off at school and opens her door for her. TH says it is nice that he drops her off at school. Can he walks her to her class? He wants to see her classmates. While walking, SH sees the flower petals falling and tries to catch one, but then he hides what he is doing when TH turns around.

They keep walking, but TH wants to stop for a moment as she looks at a foreign exchange program on the bulletin board. SH tells her she would have to go outside the country, don’t leave. A guy comes up to TH and tells her that is a competition, let’s do it together. But TH says that she told him that she didnt’ want to do it. I told you not to put your hand on my shoulder. Don’t talk about it anymore.

SH watches all this and smiles. TH says that she is only kind to him.

They walk and run into SZ. TH removes her hand from SH’s, but SH grabs her hand again and tells her not to retract it. SZ walks by without saying anything. TH wants to know why he didn’t say hi. SH says that they will see each other soon, his halmoni called for all of them to meet.

HALMONI AND MR
Halmoni wants MR to take care of SZ’s manners. She wants to give her some advice, they cannot accept people with rumors, I know what you told my daughter in law when she died, I know that you said that because of your greed, maybe you didnt’ intend it, but you need to watch your mouth. Halmoni leaves.

SZ and SH come back in. MR tells SZ that she will leave. SZ is pretty concerned about her mother and wants to know what SH’s Halmoni could have said to her. Your father is so great to let her take care of everything. SZ implies that SW and YW dating with affect TH and SH dating. But SH doesn’t understand why.

SW AND YW
SW drives up to YW’s place, but his eyes are affecting him. he gets there fine though. Inside, YW is standoffish and tells him that his son came.

We hurt our kids enough, I heard your wife died trying to see me. So how can you see me?

SW says that he just wanted to see her one last time and save it in his eyes. YW says they should be remembered as sinners, that is their punishment. SW slowly walks out and shuffles to the car.

He tells her that he isn’t hurting more than his mother. She apologizes again and says that maybe he visited her because of his disease. She diesnt’ know how much he is hurting, but maybe both of them are getting punished.

TH sighs and says that she knows she likes SH, she thinks she hates TH, but she loves SH. SH told her that her and SJ were really important to him and he can’t even explain how important you are to him. I was envious of you because of that. When he left me to hang out with y’all, I was sad and envious. But he told me that I was important to him, so I believed him and felt good. I just accepted his love and I also love him in my own way.

SZ asks her if she thinks her love is the most important thing in the world?

TH says that she is just different with SH, they share a lot of pain and everything. She doesnt’ want to steal SH from her, she just wants to build her life with him. She doesnt’ have to accept SZ’s feelings, they are her feelings, so don’t tell me what you feel.
