30 Day Kdrama Challenge: Day 10

Day 10: Your Favorite Line/s by a Female Third Wheel

Lee Yoo Bi as Park Chung Jo 

Generally I hate the third wheel female characters in Kdramas. They are often selfish, jealous, depressing, or insane. I usually want them to just go away and leave my ship alone. Rarely, though, a third wheel female will come along who is reasonable, strong-willed, and understanding of the main couple's affection. Park Chung Jo played by Lee Yoo Bi in Gu Family Book is the latter kind of third wheel. She went through hell. She lost most of her family, was forced to become a gisaeng, and had to sleep with the evil bastard that killed her parents. She persevered, though, and even had the decency to step out of the way of Kang Chi and Yeo Wool's relationship. My favorite quote by Chung Jo from the final episode of Gu Family Book: 

"The first love helps one grow, and the last love completes the person."

Gu Family Book Final Episode 24 Review

Bae Soo Ji (Suzy) as Dam Yeo Wool and Lee Seung Gi as Choi Kang Chi

So, before this drama began airing, I was thinking Lee Seung Gi + Gumiho = LOVE because my all time favorite drama is My girlfriend is a Gumiho which he stars in as the male lead. After watching the first 5 episodes of Gu Family Book, I wasn't convinced of Suzy and Seung Gi as a couple, and I was getting bored of this show. Overall, I am glad I got encouragement from my tumblr followers and finished this drama because it was damn good entertainment. It's not the best supernatural infused drama out there, but it has some redeeming qualities.
