PLOT HOLES ABOUND! For a bunch of amateurs, Judy, Linda and Teresa have a lot of notes for episodes 9-12 of “Crash Landing On You” (사랑의 불시착), a TVN romantic comedy starring Son YeJin and Hyun Bin.

Linda is incensed that the epilogues are used to show the same damn scene in Switzerland over and over, instead of developing side characters who should be contributing more to this story. Judy is upset that the lines are so unmemorable that they're NOT Crash Landing On You! Get it???!!! SeungJun (Kim JungHyun) and Dan (Seo JiHye) become increasingly pointless in these episodes.

Some Korean terms:

날로먹다: [nal-lo-meok-da] to eat raw; used as a description of greed.

입짧은 공주: [ip-jjal-beun-gong-joo] Picky Princess.

찜질방: [jjim-jil-bang] sauna bathhouse.

영접하다: [yeong-jeop-ha-da] to contact a spirit; to be possessed by a spirit.

달달구리: [dal-dal-goo-ri] slang for sweet treats. We confused "sweetmeats" with "sweetbreads". The translator did use "sweetmeats" correctly, but it is an archaic word, so it doesn't seem appropriate to use for "달달구리", a new slang term.

죽: [jook] porridge.
