Rooftop Prince Ep 2-4

                                               Episode 2
This drama is soooooooooooo funny!! I am literally laughing out loud every 2 minutes. Basically this episode was about Yoochun and Crew adjusting to the modern era. IT IS HILARIOUS. It's taking someone from 300 years ago and placing them in like New York lol. SOOOOOOOO funny. On the more serious side, Yoochun finally sees his modern day Princess who isn't dead, she is a big meanie still. And his cousin who tried to kill him off. So, everyone thinks Tae Yong has returned, meanwhile no one knows what's going on. I'm so excited to see what's next...

Episode 3
More shenanigans ensue, there isn't much romance stirring between our 2 protagonist but that's because Tae Yong is too busy looking for his "Princess". The step sister is ANNOYING and she's such a trick, grr. This episode is focused more on Tae Yong and his "family". The grandmother is sure that is Tae Yong so she is trying to get him to become her real grandson. Of course, he's like WTF no. Meanwhile, the cousin is trying to make sure he doesn't remember anything so that he can be next in line instead. The step sister who is the cousin's girlfriend is supportive and also trying to ruin Park Ha's life. And Tae Yong is just intent on getting back to the Joseon era and find his princess. Well, during a fashion show which the step sister is coordinating I guess, Tae Yong shows up and like tackles her screaming out "PRINCESS, PRINCESS!!!" Of course she slaps him and gets taken away while the sad and beautiful song 'Hurt'' by Ali is playing in the background. What's gonna happen next??

Episode 4
Uh oh, things are starting to get complicated. The ending of this episode had a great twist!! So last episode, Secretary Hong (evil step sister) stole Park Ha's $40,000 that was to be used for the opening of her shop. THAT EVIL WENCH. So Park Ha is extremely upset. Meanwhile, Lee Gak(Yoochun) meets with Grandma for the last time to state that HE IS NOT TAE YONG. Because Park Ha forgets to pick him b.c of her dilemma, he gets extremely frustrated at her. Cute. So they pretty much hate each other because Lee Gak doesn't find out about the real reason why she was late until later. Typical drama. So in order to help her find some money, they sell strawberries in animal costumes and it's DAEBAK lol. While this is going on, Park Ha meets up with her evil step sister who offers to pay her $40,000 but only if she leaves Korea for good and return to the US. Decisions, decisions.



Lee Gak passes out from all that dancing so while still in the suit, Park Ha confesses(not knowing that it's actually Lee Gak in the suit) that she plans on leaving Korea for the US. He gets mad and storms off. Sour.So to thank her friends for making so much money, they celebrate. Park Ha and Lee Gak are still on bitter terms so he storms off because he knows that she is going to leave them. Tae Moo, the evil cousin, organizes this special event that is going to be aired. He also proposes to the evil wench. But they're cut together lol. Anyways, Lee Gak  goes to watch TV and see his beloved "Princess", the evil wench, modeling a wedding dress for a wedding for the company, and he rushes off to find her. OH NO!!! ANDWE!!

He is screaming, "PRINCESS, HOW CAN YOU NOT REMEMBER ME!", grabbing her and what not. Tae Moo sees this (of course, this is a typical drama lol) and punches Lee Gak just like how he did to Tae Yong and he falls into the water, unconscious. OH NO!! They rush him to the hospital and after a long battle, he dies....but no. He finally wakes up...BUT AS TAE YONG! *GASP* SHOCKER!!

From the look of next episode, it seems like Tae Yong has really returned. While Lee Gak was unconscious in the water, he realized that everyone is just a reincarnation of the Joseon era, so he's questioning his existence and wants to find out what happened to the REAL Tae Yong? So he wakes up as the real Tae Yong. This should be reallly interesting. Overall, this drama, isn't perfect. It's funny but that's because it's silly. And then when it gets serious, it doesn't seem to serious. They are all AMAZING actors, I've seen everyone in other dramas, but I think the writing for this is off. I wish there was more we could delve into, but that's ok. After watching Liar Game and History of a Salaryman, it's hard for me to get into dramas that can't reach that level of AMAZINGNESS. But now, Rooftop Prince is drawing my interest and I want to see what's going to happen next!! Also, I wonder how hard it is for Yoochun to film after the recent death of his father, but he's doing well.
