Lie To Me: Episode 11 Open Thread
by Santa Claus
Greetings once again from the North Pole! The girls forwarded all your requests for me to make another guest appearance, so here I am, back by popular demand (well, that and a barrel of rye, but if my Tax Elf asks, that was just a “gift”).
Gosh, I haven’t recapped since my episode of Bad Guy. Hope my sharp skills of deduction haven’t gotten rusty. I sure loved bragging to all the elves about all the fan mail I got. They’re way better than the usual Dear Santa fare. Some of them even had curse words! Ho ho ho!
Also, I’d like to personally thank those of you who gave me legal advice on the reindeer union strike of 2010. We finally reached a settlement, and though I mostly had to employ the people at FedEx to get presents delivered, I finally finished by Memorial Day. If you still haven’t gotten your present, either (1) the incompetent, sorry excuse for reindeer at FedEx lost your package; or (2) you’re naughty.
You know which one you are.
EPISODE 11 WEECAP
Ah-jung tells the Big Wigs that they’re married.
Ki-joon tells them that they’re not.
Get your story straight, people.
Ki-joon tears up the contract and yells that they’re starting over, no lies this time.
Yeah, this would’ve been awesome had it come six episodes ago.
So-ran scares Jae-bum into thinking she’s going to off herself.
She’s really hiding away in Jeju, and Ah-jung conveniently has to go there for work.
Ki-joon follows her there, deigning to go by boat rather than private helicopter.
He basically does her job for her, since he’s a VVVVVVIP and she is not.
So-ran pretends to die, because that’s apparently acceptable behavior for a grown woman.
Ah-jung saves her hide by making a really really long metaphor about how Jeju is Mom, because of abalone, and I don’t see how this is going to work, but somehow it does, because Ki-joon miraculously translates her extended metaphor into three languages at the same time, and everyone has a mother but her. Or something.
They celebrate with an awkwardly lavish dinner, and then finally apologize and confess their Twu Wuv.
They kiss and Ki-joon promises to take it slow and only look at her.
Then the girl who doesn’t take a hint sees it all. Well, that takes care of that, eh?

The part that I'm really confused about is the meeting when Kijoon is in Jejudo. I didn't understand why the right hand wo-man would call a meeting and all the other guys in the room got upset after hearing something. Ah, whenever it's not the cute stuff, I go to re-caps to understand.
Someone please explain! I just want to know if it's an important factor.
Sidenote: I want to see a scene where Sanghee makes an enormous masterpiece! I think he was drawing Ahjung when Yoonjoo walked in. Eh.

This reminds me of Anna Russell comically condensing the four Ring of the Nibelung operas by Wagner (which are a mythic and silly as any kdrama), a whopping 15 hours all-together, down to a 30 minute paraody.
This is not for the faint of heart or ear. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypisVrbqDqE

I feel sorry for having voted in favor of this weecap. Looks like its all about LTM bashing, through sarcasm or sweet words.
Anyway, I do enjoy the drama, its light and fun. But looks like I shall no longer visit this blog as it has indeed disappointed me for not taking an objective stance. Open thread seems to have done more damage than good. While I am all for voicing one's opinions, but I would think one should stop watching if they don't like it rather than watch every episode and keep critiquing it. Ranting against it every episode seems pointless.

oh poor thing, i do understand but you can't take things to heart. most of the people bashing this drama are just terribly disappointed with the writing. as for me, i read the weecaps here (because they're fun) and at koala's too (for the details and spazzing), watch a few kissy scenes, and i'm happy! haha you can still visit this blog, not just the LTM open thread if you feel too bad! hee

I was going to say something similar. I've wondered why this drama, of all the dramas I've followed in my (admittedly short) kdrama career, is generating such vitriol and such impassioned responses. I agree that I think people maybe had really high expectations (especially based on the lead actors), and are just angry and disappointed that the drama's not living up to what they hoped for.
I had a (very cynical) friend who always used to say:
Low expectations = the key to happiness.
Following that philosophy, I'm enjoying this drama. I like the developing relationship between the OTP and yes, the kissy scenes :)

But looks like I shall no longer visit this blog as it has indeed disappointed me for not taking an ……...objective stance
LOL you think that being objective = fangirling
objectively speaking imo this drama is very very flawed just as bad as MSOAN and even cheesier.
From reading the recaps and now the weecaps i have to say i think JB/GF were being TOO nice when writing them.
If they had wanted to mock the drama they have their work cut out for them, but from what i can see its not all about "bashing"
instead of criticizing them why not write your own objective opinion about why LTM is such a great drama and why the criticism meted out is unfair?
Required fields are marked *
Ymee
June 13, 2011 at 9:59 PM
@ PJ, Seriously? MSOAN and LTM both dissapointed me to no ends. The best part about LTM is the chemistry between the leads and the kissing scenes. They aren't going to be able to salvage anything so I hope they bring on the fan service. Use those lips I say!
And Viven, I feel ya on the nice recaps from JB and GF but Santa is doing a fine job too. I hope he comes back for the rest of the series! But keep in mind that these are their opinions and you aren't always going to agree. IMO, trying to write something nice and objective about the drama may not work considering there is no movement in the drama. And that's just my opinion. Well, I do hope that you can over come this and continue to come here for recaps.

And on that note (slightly off topic, but related), in order to feel like less of a hypocrite, I want to apologize for saying mean things about Pil-joo on the Best Love threads. It's only because I REALLY love Dokko Jin, but I've realized it's unnecessary and might hurt people's feelings, so from now on I'll try really hard to keep those negative (jealous) thoughts to myself.
Just really wanted to get that off my chest.

This may not be the most surprisingly plotted drama, but there is plenty to love here. The stars are great together and if you suspend your critic hat and watch it just purely for enjoyment, it's a lot of fun and very addicting. I find that I am waiting like crazy for every new one to come out and end up watching it several times. Give it a break. It ain't Shakespeare, but sometimes that's just the ticket.

I still love it. I'm not digging for an educational drama. the world is depressing enough as it is for us live. I don't want to frustrate myself debating about a make believe / fantasy drama. I want to watch silly, illogical, stupid tug of love drama and LTM just is the right choice for me. Light, breezy, fun, trendy and cute couple :)
People are entitled to their own mind. If they hate something, by golly, it's their rights. If they like something, then just love it.
on a side note: I want some hot kissy-kissy lovescenes, enough to burn Ki-joon's sprawling home. kekekeke.. :P

Sounds like a present for a good deed done. Now that is not so logical to my wee bit mind. Lie To Me has not been very good at all. I hope you give them what they deserve and give them the Bad Guy treatment. Or else I will also ask for the same nice wee cap for myself.

Now to the real thing: Pls can I have Park Shi Hoo for Xmas? Or Kang-ah? Or BOTH? Thanks. I've been naughty and nice, so I deserve a reward.
Santa, it's really nice to chat with you in person. So I'm curious.
1. What do you do the rest of the time you're not doing Xmas stuff?
2. Are those elves related to you?
3. Do you wear boxers or speedos under your suit? I see you as a speedos kind of guy. In blazing red. HAWT!
4. Do you shower or soak in a hot tub?
5. What's your fav kor drama? Betcha it's Will It Snow for Christmas. HAHAHAHA Sorry, no offence.
6. So why do you go HO HO HO when you do your rounds? Wouldn't it be cooler to go HEY HEY HEY?
I've tiled and oiled my chimney so it's easy for you to just slide PSH/Kang-ah down. You take care now.

Some people have been discussing about Hotties! I've just noticed someone mentioning Lee Seung gi. Yes, indeed he is - watch him in 2days/1 night - and the more you'll be smitten with this guy.
The hottest for me, at the moment, and which I will include on my shortlist that would include KANG AHHHH..... , Eric Mun, is So In Jung. Just got out of the military, mind you, and hope that he'll be in a drama soon.
I'm so looking forward to it.

Hmm...the "A Team" theme playing when the helicopter came to their rescue: someone in the LTM writing department is trying to channel some of the winning factors(the silly music cues) from the most awesome, silliest drama filled with best loves and pet potatoes... :)
Finally Ki Joon's balls are growing!!! Had he been this adorable before, it may have been more enjoyable to watch.
But Kang Ji Hwan...damn...uber hawtness... <3<3<3

I loved this ep, especially the last part...omo, a tux and a beautiful gown for her with candle light dinner complete with wine and flowers and the proposition....
finally we can see this couple 'not' fighting and shouting at each other!
and that girl better take the hint that he no longer like her and just go back to Paris or wherever she was the last 3 years!!! or better yet, go back to SangHee...
thanks santa for the weecap!!!

This is turning out to be be sadder and sadder. Thank God the two are cute but I have abandoned all hope that this will ever get out of the crazy path.
Is Ki Joon's manager-friend trying to create some kind of corporate chaos or something?

That dinner thing at the end probably is the most unromantic romantic gesture ever. It's not grand enough to be fairy tale-y but its not humble either to be sweet. Its just weird. Plus the setting is just so ehhh. Weird. I seriously am all out of hope for it to be better.

I’ll take this very romantic gesture anytime!
It’s Cinderella! Ki Joon style! There is a handsome prince (chabeol), a beautiful but poor servant (public servant), a luxurious white carriage (limo), a castle (5star hotel) up high, and a beautiful ball gown with a handsome man vying for your love.
Ahhh sweet… Cinderella, my favorite fairy tale!

and talking on plots done a hundred time before..the meeting with the aunt and the second lead girl and parents..is that to be a build up of the "I had do more for him than you can" story line ie her family has the connections to help him in business.
I have no troubles with odd worn plot devices, as long as they are done well and written well, but other than most of the scenes with the two leads together much of the side plots have a feeling of just been through out there messily and you just can not take it at all seriously.
I could mention another drama also on Mondays that is totally old school, but its writing is tight the actors believable, they make all those old plot devices work!

Dear Santa,
Your greetings take up half of your wee recap. But to me it's the best part of your post, even more entertaining than the summary of the episode itself.

after reading many of the comments here related to the good and bad points of LTM, i would like to believe that low expectations does not necessarily ensure happiness... in fact it only ensures that we get crap...
and more of it in the future...
if we will be objective about it we will realize that its not how many of the things we know has evolved to become better products, better services...safety of the people are also sacrificed if high expectations are not set
in the case of dramas, if people do not voice out, in a constructive way, their high expectations from the story-makers on what kind of stories they will listen to or how they will be told, then we will never enjoy beauty, excellence, perfection....we will be stuck with mediocrity, worse, rotten tomatoes...
and that's not a recipe for happiness at all :-(
but this does not mean we go uselessly bashing all things not yet perfect because they are all vital part of the process and journey towards excellence...this path can sometimes kill enthusiasm and creativity if it runs unchecked...
our one small voice can make a difference if we use it to achieve beauty and harmony in our midst. i think we need to use it wisely, humbly, responsibly and courageously. :-)

What wise words, my friend Samgetang!
When you speak such wisdom, I wonder if you are 100 years old... Hmmm, could be?
Nah!

I think the Korean fans have already spoken with the low ratings.

on second thought, i think the writer of LTM might be targeting the int'l audience with this drama (hint: ice cream and cola kiss)

I think my friend (whose philosophy about expectations and happiness you refer to here) would probably agree with you 100%, as I do.
I think this is a philosophy embraced as a self-protective mechanism by very cynical people who set a very low bar for "happiness" -- it's not really "happiness" at all, as other people would understand/define it, but rather simply not feeling bitter, angry, and miserable about whatever happens, and not feeling like a chump who was duped by allowing him/herself to believe that something better might be possible.
Very sad, I know -- and really only proves your point. You get as much as you expect/demand from life and others (broadly speaking), so if you have low expectations for "happiness," you'll get exactly what satisfies your definition, and nothing more. But at least you'll be happy with it! ;)

we should never settle for anything less. if we are disappointed because we raised the bar too high it's okay because at least we still did not get the bottom of the barrel. it is not in the getting but in the aiming. the more you aim high, the more you will get better and better results. the problem with some who aim high is that they focus on the reward or the prize or the thing that they are aiming for. when all you have to focus on is in the process, the journey. it is its own reward. no one can ever be truly happy with low expectations because we are all made for great, mighty, noble, excellent things. that's how we are made and designed by God. it is a lie to think otherwise. it is our birthright, our destiny, as human beings.

Most kdramas don't make complete sense. You either enjoy it or don't. I for one am loving this drama and did from the first episode. For those who love this Lie to Me and want to read a recap by someone who cherishes this drama as well, go to http://koalasplayground.com.
