Best K-Drama Moments: June Week #2 - Who Are You: School 2015 (x2), Producer, Warm and Cozy, Mask + High Society

Who Are You: School 2015
The bigger badass.

So Young has been a constant thorn in Eun Bi's side, but Eun Byul is back to do some rightful cutting. Upon her return, Eun Byul foils another one of So Young's plans to reveal Eun Bi's identity and avenges her little sister. While repeatedly shoving her backwards, Eun Byul calls So Young out on being a bully, especially for her lack of remorse towards Eun Bi's 'death'. Although she is shaken, So Young readies to strike, but Eun Byul catches her arm and raises her own hand as if to slap her. So Young flinches, expecting the blow, but Eun Byul drops her hand and tells her that answering violence with violence is beneath her.


That's how you do a cliffhanger.

Lonely, Tae Kwang has lost his appetite, and so, he calls Eun Bi to take him out to eat. They have a great time together, but as the day winds down, so does their date. Tae Kwang walks Eun Bi home, and as they part at her gate, she offers him advice about how to make time go faster when he is alone. He outright rejects it because the only way time flies for him is when he's with her. Tae Kwang then closes the distance between them until he kisses her cheek. Of course, at that very moment, Yi Ahn shows up to see the whole thing.


Producer
Swing away.

Cindy likes Seung Chan, Seung Chan likes Ye Jin, Ye Jin likes Joon Moo... Well, she thought she did, but now, she's not sure. So, here comes Seung Chan to clear up an confusion. He's always been in a one-sided love but has never had the courage to confess. How can your love ever be realized if you don't put it out into the world? This time, Seung Chan finally does, hoping that it makes Ye Jin come to him, just like she does when he pulls her swing and gives her a kiss. But will her heart move towards him as well?

Warm and Cozy
A sweet difference.

After her confession at the lighthouse, Jung Joo's heart beats stronger for Geon Woo, but it seems nothing has changed for him, or so he'd like to believe. While Jung Joo retrieves some ingredients from the storage room, the light flickers, and as she reaches for a new bulb off the top shelf, she spills a bag of powdered sugar on her head. Geon Woo helps to dust her off, teasing that she has become sweeter. Jung Joo asks him to blow the sugar out of her eyes before it gets sticky. When he obliges, a wave of new feelings seems to rush over Geon Woo. His eyes linger on her, seeing her as a woman at that moment. He wonders if things between them are different? He may sound like he's referring to the sugar, but his feelings for her have definitely changed, no matter how much he tries to balk.

Mask
Body heat.

Ji Sook's jealous sister-in-law has made sure she's stranded with her brother, Min Woo, on an island, and when she drops the ring in the water, she gets soaked chasing after it. Getting stranded while soaked has never been a good idea, and Ji Sook gets sick. And what does her husband do? Min Woo undresses them both so that they can share his body heat. It's a very sexy scene, but it's among my favourites because more than anything, they've begun to reveal their real selves to each other.


High Society
First impressions are everything.

It might not be easy to like our hero Choi Joon Ki. He is an ambitious young man who uses wealthy women to help him ascend the ladder of success, but he is a layer character and among the few things that have endeared some viewers to him is his immediate attraction to the vulnerable Jang Yoo Ha, an heiress of the Taejin Group. Wearing makeup that screams rebel and with her very casual attire of ripped jeans and a loose, white tank top, Joon Ki's eyes scan her as they ride the elevator together. She has gone to the hotel for an arranged date with his close friend, Chang Soo. Unfortunately, it's a first meeting that leaves Yoon Ha in tears as Chang Soo humiliates her. After Joon Ki breaks up with his rich girlfriend, he ends up taking the elevator with Yoon Ha again. She is noticeably sullen this time, and though gone is the sassy diva who snagged his initial attention, his eyes are still drawn to her as though he's memorizing her face. She may not have noticed him, but she is burned into Joon Ki's memory.
