Ghost Swim
Episode 11 of Love (ft. Marriage and Divorce) Season 2 begins with Dong-Mi seething, desperate to see A-Mi get her comeuppance. In order to resolve this, Pi-Young demands to see her phone. Dong-Mi however, still can’t get past Yu-Shin cheating. She counteractively compliments Pi-Young, calling her the perfect wife. Well, his perfect wife decides to take Yu-Shin to court when A-Mi refuses to show her phone. She gives up until 10am the following day. Meanwhile, a woman named Su-Hui arrives in town. She rings Dr Cho and they agree to meet. She’s intent on seeing her daughter – A-Mi! Her English name is Caroline too. Well, Su-Hui shows up to see A-Mi and encourages her to meet him. When he finally lays eyes on her, he immediately recognizes her as the one having an affair with Yu-Shin. He presses her on this too and finds out the pair are lovers. Su-Hui is furious and even more so when she finds out there’s a family broken up in all this. Eventually the heat becomes too much for A-Mi and she bolts out. Meanwhile, Yu-Shin rings Hae-Ryun and asks to meet. If anyone knows what it’s like to cheat and break up a happy family it’s him. In fact, Yu-Shin has the audacity to call him out as the one trying to wreck his home. He has no intentions of divorcing and asks him to use Si-Eun to dissuade Pi-Young from going through with this. Back at the house Pi-Young admits to Ji-A that Yu-Shin is staying away for a bit. Well, he’s off with Si-Eun and asks her for help. It doesn’t last long though, as A-Mi’s parents show up and demand an audience. It turns out Yu-Shin isn’t going to break up with A-Mi yet as she’s psychologically unstable and has been hurting herself. Basically, A-Mi is manipulating him. When he sees Dong-Mi later on though, her words are enough to encourage Yu-Shin to break up with A-Mi in the near future. That’s easier said than done though given she sees all of this as fate. Elsewhere, Ki-Rim goes for a ghost swim. He notices that same girl from before and watches her from under the water. It’s incredibly creepy. There’s also a subplot here involving Moon-Ho buying new rings too but it’s pushed aside for the big finale. Within this, Pi-Young waits for Yu-Shin at the morning buffet.
The Episode Review
After last week’s dramatic episode, f Love (ft. Marriage and Divorce) keeps that momentum going for an episode that sees A-Mi receive the brunt of abuse on all sides. And why shouldn’t she? She has no remorse for her actions and worse, she actively resents Ji-A in all this after her comments about divorce. She’s desperate for Yu-Shin to break up with Pi-Young and worse, is essentially using suicide and physical harm as a crux to keep him tied to her. Elsewhere, Yu-Shin lashes out and tries to find someone else to blame while Si-Eun and Hae-Ryun at least get something to do this week. Speaking of which, this show has had a real problem balancing out all the different stories, while the ghost antics with Ki-Rim is beyond stupid now. What is the point in this? Anyway, the episode ends with a promising sign of things to come as this second season finally looks like it’s up and running again.
