Judy and Teresa are vexed by episodes 15-16 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.

How is Donggoo (Kim JungHyun) the main character? How and why do his housemates endure his self-absorbed antics? Why does Yoonah (Jung InSun) like him? Teresa suggests that Yoonah is so bland because she\\u2019s supposed to be a Mary-Sue character and Judy is tremendously irritated. Is Yoonah so without personal motivation that Hyunjoon (Kang KyungJoon) has to tell her that she likes Donggoo and there\'s a montage that\'s supposed to prove this?\\xa0

Here\'s a clip from "Community" season 2 episode, "Paradigms of Human Memory", which shows montages can be manipulated to work for anybody:
