[Drama Review] 'Missing 9' - Episode 11

This may be very opinionated for me to say, but episode 11 of 'Missing 9' may have been the series' most pointless episode to date. An incredibly significant instigator to the plot's impending turn of events happened at the end of the last episode -Seo Jun Oh(played byJung Kyung Ho) has returned alive! But alas, episode 11 seems to think it's viewers will find it just so darn funny if the whole episode consists of fooling around with nothing significant happening to advance the plot, going,"You thought Jun Oh was going to pop up in front ofChoi Tae Ho(played byChoi Tae Joon) and smack him upside the head? You thought wrong! Sike!" 

Let's quickly list out the events that occurred in this episode. Jun Oh andRa Bong Hee(played byBaek Jin Hee) eat Chinese snacks at the home of an elderly Chinese man, who happens to be a Chinese medicine practitioner. Jun Oh gets on an illegal boat to return to Seoul, where he gambles all of his possessions away. Jun Oh and managerJung Ki Joonplay old fashioned arcade games, eat tteokbokki, and go to a public bath. (Lost somewhere in the midst of that little bromantic date, they make up and Ki Joon apologizes for lying for Tae Ho.) Bong Hee's mom finds Jun Oh unworthy of being Bong Hee's husband, rather preferring one of the much older lawyers, like prosecutorYoon Tae Young(played byYang Dong Geun). What have we learned in this episode? Oh yeah, that Yoon So Hee's phone might have a tiny little clue to serve as evidence, needed to prove that Choi Tae Ho is a murderer. End of episode, goodbye!
