Judy and Teresa are feeling ambivalent about episodes 13-14 of \\u201cGo Go Waikiki\\u201d (\\uc73c\\ub77c\\ucc28\\ucc28 \\uc640\\uc774\\ud0a4\\ud0a4), a JTBC drama starring Kim JungHyun, Lee YiKyung, Song SeungWon, Jung InSun, Go WonHee and Lee JooWoo.

The production quality is consistently excellent. Judy loves all the music references and wants to be friends with the drama\'s music director. We also love all the callbacks to previous episodes, which shows that the staff know how to structure the series to make it fun.\\xa0

So how is it that they have to pad out all the good bits with such perplexing and/or boring crap? Donggoo (Kim JungHyun) pretending to be injured so that Yoonah (Jung InSun) has to do stuff for him is super gross. Seojin (Go WonHee) being randomly mean to Joonki (Lee YiKyung) makes us dislike her character. We suspect it\'s from the fact that they extended this drama from 16 to 20 episodes.\\xa0
