No Acquire No Love Episodes 9 and 10 Highlights

“At any price, your resignation isn’t what I would like.”

The confrontation between Gyu-hyeon and Ji-wook doesn’t go effectively, to say the least. Gyu-hyeon is just too mad to take heed to something Ji-wook says, and he even goes so far as to insult Ji-wook’s mom and order each him and Hae-yeong to depart the corporate. I can perceive the betrayal Gyu-hyeon felt since Ji-wook saved the reality from him. However his anger is pointed towards the improper particular person and the one deserving of his wrath is the chairman, not Ji-wook.

Being kicked out of the corporate doesn’t faze Ji-wook one bit, however he’s frightened about Hae-yeong struggling losses due to him. Fortunately, Hae-yeong is a troublesome cookie who received’t go down with no battle. Gyu-hyeon can attempt all he needs to kick her out, however Hae-yeong resolves to face up for herself. Nonetheless, everyone knows how exhausting it’s to battle in opposition to a conglomerate. And within the blink of an eye fixed, Hae-yeong finds herself demoted and reassigned from the duty power workforce. Worse, the ex-boyfriend takes over her place.

To guard Hae-yeong, Ji-wook claims they’re now divorced and don’t have anything to do with one another (Gyu-hyeon sees by way of that lie.) and turns in his resignation letter. However that isn’t sufficient to fulfill Gyu-hyeon or reasonably his mom, who needs Ji-wook in a foreign country for good. That girl has acquired nerve. It’s actually exhausting to observe Ji-wook get blamed for his existence as if he dedicated a sin when he’s the one harmless particular person amongst everybody concerned. And even whether it is due to his mom, Gyu-hyeon’s harsh therapy of Ji-wook can’t be tolerated.

Amidst all that chaos, Hae-yeong stays by Ji-wook’s aspect, comforting him and assuring him he did nothing improper. If she will get kicked out, then so be it. Hae-yeong will get a job in a rival firm and avenge Ji-wook. They’ve enjoyable blowing cleaning soap bubbles and Ji-wook appears extra relaxed than earlier than, although I’m frightened he would possibly break up with Hae-yeong and disappear, wrongly believing it’s for her profit.

Shocking her, Ji-wook tags alongside Hae-yeong’s enterprise journey and so they go on a date by the seaside. Hae-yeong opens as much as Ji-wook that she blames herself for her mom’s situation since she moved out of the home after her father’s demise and solely got here again when her mom moved to the countryside. (In all probability it was through the time Hae-yeong left the home that Ji-wook stayed there since she has no reminiscence of him.) In line with Hae-yeong, maybe had she stayed and saved her mom’s firm, she wouldn’t have developed dementia.

Now, Hae-yeong wonders about what sort of ideas her mom had whereas she was away. The one one who can fill the hole is perhaps Ji-wook, however he wants to come back clear to Hae-yeong first about being acquainted together with her mom. Throughout an earlier dialog, Hae-yeong instructed Ji-wook she didn’t need him to maintain any extra secrets and techniques from her. So, I hope she would hear about it from Ji-wook and never another person.

“Have you ever misplaced it? Of all the lads to fall for, you fell to your hater?”

In the meantime, our second lead couple is experiencing some drama as effectively. Gyu-hyeon confesses he likes Ja-yeon, however she turns him down. Additional complicating issues, it occurs on the identical day Gyu-hyeon barged into the rooftop to confront Ji-wook and Ja-yeon witnesses the entire thing. Ashamed, Gyu-hyeon can’t convey himself to contact Ja-yeon and settles to drink his sorrows away.

As we already know, Gyu-hyeon is a light-weight and one sniff was sufficient to knock him out. With some assist from Gyu-hyeon’s secretary who is aware of his boss is in love with Ja-yeon, Gyu-hyeon results in entrance of Ja-yeon’s home. However Ja-yeon at first errors him for her abusive father, who simply acquired out of jail on parole, earlier than realizing it’s Gyu-hyeon.

Sensing she is scared, Gyu-hyeon takes Ja-yeon in his arms, however she screams. Listening to her scream, Hae-yeong and Ji-wook rush over to her rescue, solely to comprehend it’s Gyu-hyeon. Since issues have come to this, Gyu-hyeon comes clear about all the pieces, ranging from the hate feedback to his crush on Ja-yeon.

Hae-yeong’s response is to hit Gyu-hyeon. However the one taking the hits is Ji-wook since Gyu-hyeon used him as a protect. To cease Hae-yeong from going after Gyu-hyeon, Ja-yeon blurts out that she likes him too, getting Gyu-hyeon ecstatic. That is imagined to be a romantic second for our second lead couple, but it surely seems reasonably hilarious when Hae-yeong goes after Ja-yeon as an alternative.

Issues occur and Gyu-hyeon finally ends up sleeping over within the rooftop room. (Facet be aware: Gyu-hyeon and Ji-wook share the identical sleeping patterns.) Over breakfast, Gyu-hyeon blurts out: 1) Ja-yeon plans to maneuver out of the home. 2) Ji-wook is shifting overseas. The primary level is true since Ja-yeon signed the contract for a brand new place already. However Ji-wook remains to be a bit hesitant about leaving Hae-yeong. Anyway, a mad Hae-yeong tells Ja-yeon and Ji-wook to get out of her face, however Gyu-hyeon ought to keep since Hae-yeong has one thing to say to him.

Unsurprisingly, Hae-yeong asks Gyu-hyeon to avoid Ja-yeon. And when he refuses to take action, Hae-yeong asks Gyu-hyeon if he’ll keep by Ja-yeon’s aspect, it doesn’t matter what occurs. (I suppose we’ve got one thing at play right here larger than the totally different social standing.) Gyu-hyeon counters by asking Hae-yeong if she is prepared to remain by Ji-wook’s aspect, it doesn’t matter what. To which, Hae-yeong realistically solutions that she may not have the opportunity to take action, however she’s going to absolutely take revenge on Gyu-hyeon.

“Your grandmother is gone. Would it not be so horrible when you went in opposition to what she requested you to do?”

Between his emotions for Hae-yeong and Gyu-hyeon’s threats and the promise he made to his grandmother about not inflicting hurt to his mom, Ji-wook is torn. He nearly walks down the noble idiocy path, but Hae-yeong calls him out on abandoning her due to his useless grandmother and the mom who deserted him. Giving in to his emotions, Ji-wook confesses that he loves Hae-yeong and from then on, our ship is crusing easily.

One other ship crusing easily is our second lead couple. Ja-yeon asks Gyu-hyeon to satisfy and the poor man will get his hopes up, assuming it’s a date. However Ja-yeon solely needed to go searching his firm for analysis functions. Regardless, Gyu-hyeon is pleased to be with Ja-yeon and he even reenacts a scene from her novel and Ja-yeon joins him, too. (Does this rely as a trailer for the upcoming spinoff Spice Up Your Love?)

Issues had been going easily till the temper acquired bitter. Because it seems, Hae-yeong’s father was killed whereas she was in school, most likely by Ja-yeon’s abusive father. Reminded by that merciless fact, Ja-yeon tells Gyu-hyeon that’s their first and final date, leaving him heartbroken. She is simply as unhappy, however the worry she feels due to her abusive father eclipses any romantic emotions Ja-yeon has for Gyu-hyeon.

You would possibly assume not less than our leads at the moment are relationship fortunately. However sadly, coming throughout a photograph of Ji-wook and her mom, Hae-yeong learns the reality. Therefore, getting enraged. She tells Ji-wook to depart and never present up earlier than her once more. Significantly, they didn’t even final a day earlier than breaking apart.


No Acquire No Love Episodes 9 and 10 Musings

Penultimate weeks are notorious for surging stress and angst, so I’m not shocked by this cliffhanger. We already knew that second was certain to come back, but I hoped Ji-wook would not less than drop some hints to Hae-yeong. Really, I’ve a tough time understanding Ji-wook. Hae-yeong already is aware of mainly all the pieces about him, so why was he hesitant to inform her he was a foster baby? Is there something we aren’t conscious of?

Alternatively, I didn’t see it coming that Jae-yeon’s father killed Hae-yeong’s. However now all the pieces is smart, from how mentioning Hae-yeong’s father is off-limits to how Ja-yeon caters to Hae-yeong. It was out of guilt. I really feel for Ja-yeon, having needed to dwell in worry whereas blaming herself for that incident, although she is a sufferer too. I do know it isn’t true. However I suppose Ja-yeon believes Hae-yeong blames her for her father’s demise. So, I hope our ladies tackle the elephant within the room in order that they will neglect the previous and transfer on from that tragic incident.

On a lighter be aware, I admire the character improvement we acquired for our leads. For somebody who hates losses, Hae-yeong’s typical response would have been to interrupt up with Ji-wook., However Hae-yeong is not the identical particular person from after we first met her, and she or he selected to battle for her love as an alternative of surrendering. Additionally, Ji-wook lastly took the reins of his life and received’t let anybody dictate the best way he ought to dwell his life.

Likewise, Gyu-hyeon is taking child steps towards determining what he needs to do in life. And I received’t be shocked if he selected to step down as a CEO and maybe work as Ja-yeon’s supervisor. I hope Ja-yeon can muster up the braveness too and speak in confidence to others concerning her trauma and grow to be extra sincere about her emotions.

One other theme I appreciated this week was emphasizing that giving beginning doesn’t make one a mother or father and a few mother and father make their kids’s life a dwelling hell. Ji-wook, Ja-yeon, and the opposite foster children had been fortunate sufficient to have met Hae-yeong’s mom, however many others couldn’t escape that hell. These heartfelt moments make the drama shine extra and stability out the comedy.

With just one week left, I think about the drama to tie all of the free ends in a pleasant bow and stay enjoyable and hilarious. You have got executed an ideal job, present, so please stick the touchdown and make your manner into our checklist of all-time favorites.
