Sorry. 미남 post. Ignore if you don't watch.

Soooo Episode 13 was the most heartbreaking episode for Shinwoo fans, eh?
I was HORRIFIED during the scene where Heyi forced Minam to go meet the boys wearing the shoes and carrying the flowers Shinwoo was going to confess to her with. Not only was Heyi's action beyond vile (isn't Shinwoo suffering enough already?) but oh my goodness, Jung Yong-hwa decided to display his best acting skills ever in this episode!! I almost died. His poor face looked like someone just smashed his heart, stepped on it, froze it and then smashed it again. It was like the worst combination of humiliation, hurt and anger. holy crap. I almost expected him to punch Heyi in the face.
Oh, and this came after the other super sad scene where he basically recounts all his missed opportunities while retelling it as a "fictional love story" for the oblivious Minam who thinks he's still talking about another girl... Dude. I feel so bad for him because he's just full of regrets. I think that's the saddest, most pathetic thing. Especially since he missed many of his opportunities because he was trying to keep Minam comfortable/safe, too.
Anyway, I am pleased with his development as the 2nd lead! Haha, harsh, but that's the life of a second lead in kdramas!! the best they can do is make everyone but the female lead fall in love with them...
Oh, and if the male lead was less appealing, I would totally be rooting for Shinwoo + Minam, but COME ONNNN! Taekyung is unbelievably awesome with Minam! I think they are the best fitting couple in recent K-drama history! Even my other favorites still had some issues I had to kinda bypass for the sake of the story (like Coffee Prince? Hankyul was soo in love with Eunchan the BOY, that I thought the transition into him liking her as a girl was too easy... well, there are many complications with gender identity and sexual orientation in that one. At least in 미남, everyone cept Jeremy liked Minam as a girl).

Oh, do I even have to go over all the uber cute Taekyung moments?
okay, how about this one:

Unabashed joy when she reveals to the "administrator" (Taekyung) that she likes Taekyung 100 percent!
I love that he tries so hard to be so cool and serious but in private he's suchhh a dork. (Also, Minam's rating for his cool level was 5/10... hahhaha he was so shocked.)
