Faith Episode 2 continued

Eun Soo already at work on the Princess's wound. Her magnifying goggles and the light
 peaking interest of the guards and Jang Bin

Really liking the cheeky fast runner side character, Oh Dae Man (Kim Jong Moon)

The 'mole' that tried everything to kill the princess(!) and the most annoying and hateful character yet,
Jo Il Sin (Lee Byung Joon)

Chun Eum Ja (SungHoon) as a mysterious white haired guy who's flute noise can kill cockroaches! It seems he is
 under the evilist of them all Gi Cheol (Yoo Oh Sung). We have yet to see his true motives but he's giving off that 
evil vibe already.

Samsung galaxy s3 making it's appearance. Another aspect in time travel dramas, they always bring a cellphone with them!

Eun Soo still thinking she's in the modern world, wondering how in the world can there be such a big filming set!
Back to finding a taxi to Kang-Nam.

It seems Jang Bin also has some mystical powers...

I didn't buy this couple at first (before the premiere) but this scene might have did it =). Cutness overload.

Just when she can leave, fate intervenes...

and the portal vanishes forever (?)

It's understandable that she's tired and mad at this whole situation. 
Just, be careful with that sword.

Choi Young's only way to pay back and 'not keeping his promise'. 
Told you to be careful!

The "WTF" moment where this jerk decides to change his title to "the world's biggest jerk" and pulls out the sword!
Jo Il Sin you bastard! Kind of disappointed in Choi Young's crew though. I know they're
following orders and still, but they didn't stand strong against that scumbag. 

We finally get some reaction from Princess NoGook. She's the one that tells Dae Man to hurry back and
 save Choi Young because he was her saviour. She's giving that strong, resilient aura, totally loving it
and a great contrast from the King.

I totally love how Eun Soo is all worried and uptight about the surgery. Looks like Jang Bin
has invented a really good anesthesia.




episode 3 -- Aug.20th

Faith Episodes 1 & 2

The long wait is gone! Faith has finally debuted it's first two episodes this week on Monday and Tuesday. Finishing the two episodes, I can confidently stay this show is a keeper! Don't expect this to be your regular saeguk. Except something new, mystical, magical, and heart-pounding. Having never watched this type of genre before, I was taken in by all of it at first. I know there have been a lot of time-travel dramas this past year, and I've never watched any, so I can't judge. However, if you want a quality time-travel drama, this is the one.

Sticking to my "drama-watching guidelines" prior to this show I have not read much about it or any character synopsis in depth. I went into this knowing only the basic facts. I catch on pretty quickly so the character relationships were established pretty soon, but there are some that I am still confused about.


 highlights of episode 1

General Choi Young (Lee Min Ho) doing his favourite thing right in the beginning: sleeping

I loved this scene where they sprinkled the neon dust on the assasins!

Princess NoGook (Park Se Young) and King Gong Min (Ryu Duk Hwan), the newly weds but give each other cold vibes.

Jang Bin (Phillip Lee), the 'best' doctor around. I'm not getting much from him for now.

The funny moments in time travel dramas where the ancient person jumps to the modern world. I had a laugh at these parts. Especially the encounter between Choi Young and the monk and when he asked to "go into the screen' to find Eun Soo.

Choi Young has a special "internal energy" that is like electricity. Pretty good CG.

Eun Soo (Kim Hee Sun) was super cute in her "school days" look! So far Kim Hee Sun has been living up to her character and 

portraying it quite well.

Highlights of episode 2 (continued in next post because I'm having trouble posting now)
