Second Shot at Love – K-drama Episode 10 Recap & Review
Episode 10 Episode 10 of Second Shot at Love begins with the donor's family backing out. Geum-ju works out till her liver fat levels are normal, making her an eligible donor. However, Gwang-ok would rather die than have Geum-ju be cut open. Jeong-su is conflicted and upset that he continues to be a burden. Ui-joon shows up and convinces Gwang-ok that this is the only way for mother and daughter to atone to each other. Gwang-ok finally agrees and the surgery takes place. A while later, she is in recovery while Geum-ju is back on her feet. Geum-ju also patches up with Hyeon-ju and pushes her to consider Seon-wook. Hyeon-ju refuses as she decides to take over the family B&B. Everyone from the town visits Gwang-ok at the hospital except for Ms Nosy. Turns out, Ui-joon caught Instructor Kim trying to rob Ms Nosy's restaurant. The catch is that Kim is Ms Nosy aka Mrs. Kim's son. The men discuss how sons become their fathers but are glad that Ui-joon is nothing like Mr Seo. It cuts to Ui-joon combing the news for a lead on his father. A nurse shows up and returns Mr Seo's photo that he had dropped at the home. She claims to be a retired nurse who used to look after Mr Seo. She is surprised as Ui-joon reveals he wants to help Mr Seo get healthy. We see that the meeting has been orchestrated by Baek. The nurse is still Mr Seo's caretaker and rants about Ui-joon's pointless search in front of him. In a moment of lucidity, Mr Seo realises she is talking about his son. It is Ui-joon's birthday and Geum-ju goes above and beyond to celebrate. Nurse Baek drops by as well and while leaving, she hopes Ui-joon can move on from his past and find happiness. Meanwhile, Young-woong's mother sits with Mrs Kim who still hasn't checked up on Gwang-ok. Mrs Kim sulks because of her son and waves off Gwang-ok's recovery. But she feels guilty when Gwang-ok checks in on her. But fret not, as Seon-hwa dotes on Gwang-ok and even brings her food. Gwang-ok is touched and hopes Seon-wook looks after his sister. Hyeon-ju is again in a dilemma of whether to prioritise her feelings or Seon-hwa's. Nevertheless, Seon-wook refuses to break and decides to wait till Hyeon-ju is ready to date. Young-woong is annoyed by his optimism. Back to our birthday boy, Geum-ju takes Ui-joon to the mountains which he had once mentioned. Initially, Ui-joon is stiff but he starts enjoying himself after he recalls Nurse Baek's wish for him to be happy. Once they are home, Geum-ju brings him cake and even plays a video she had recorded for him. However, that night, he has a nightmare of the dead nurse. Seon-hwa continues to help around the Han household. We learn that she sees Gwang-ok as her mother. The women worry that Hyeon-ju is all alone and Seon-hwa sets her up with a much older divorcee. Hyeon-ju agrees but only to reject him in person. Unbeknownst to her decision, a drunk Seon-wook begs Hyeon-ju not to date the divorcee. Seon-hwa shows up and confronts Hyeon-ju. A flashback shows that she found out by eavesdropping on Seon-wook's conversation with Young-woong. She feels betrayed and thinks Hyeon-ju doesn't care for her. Seon-hwa tries to drown herself and Hyeon-ju stops her, promising to stay away from Seon-wook. Meanwhile, Ui-joon meets Nurse Jeong's mother who returns the money he had given her. She declares that she can never forgive him. As for Geum-ju, she is at the hospital when she hears the nurses gossip and look down upon Ui-joon. Curious, Geum-ju looks up Nurse Jeong and sees the hateful comments directed towards Ui-joon. It's all about how a murderer's son is not fit to be a doctor. Elsewhere, Mr Seo has recovered all his memories and demands to see Ui-joon. The caretaker assures Nurse Baek that Ui-joon is in the dark. A flashback shows that Nurse Jeong dies on Ui-joon's birthday. At the funeral, Mrs. Jeong is furious to see Ui-joon. Nurse Baek is close to Jeong and takes her away while glaring daggers at Ui-joon. At present, he is wallowing in self-pity when Geum-ju finds him at Jeong's columbarium. She insists that the nurse's death is not his fault and he cries. In the Second Shot at Love Episode 10 epilogue, Geum-ju tries to record the birthday message. But she can't stop crying while thanking him for his love and support. The Episode Review As expected, Second Shot at Love Episode 10 quickly wraps up the liver transplant subplot for the final conflict. It does seem a little hasty as we aren't even shown the immediate aftermath. Jeong-su is sidelined when this could have been the perfect moment for him to help his wife and finally get the spotlight. Geum-ju and Ui-joon's birthday celebration definitely lightened the episode and kept it cheerful and wholesome. But it seems like the writers still prefer the constant miscommunication and vague misdirects with the way they are setting up Nurse Baek's shadiness and Seon-hwa's outburst. We had hoped that the show would let go of this miscommunication trope after Ui-joon and Geum-ju's reconciliation. Instead, Seon-hwa and Baek send mixed signals, making Ui-joon and Hyeon-ju's lives miserable. With Geum-ju's alcoholism storyline wrapped up ages ago, the show struggles to hit the runtime with unnecessary plot twists and drama.
