WARNING: If you haven’t watched this episode, please be aware of spoiler from reading this article.
“Kim Bo Tong?” It was Ma Te’s first discovery on the ‘button’ through an observation he made on David while hugging, hopping around Bo Tong. Ma Te is clearly a fast learner because in my opinion, finding someone’s button is not an easy task. It needs a lot of time to acquire the observation/understanding skill. It made me want to know / to find people’s button as well (I’ve tried but I quit, I prefer a simple life).
Have you guys already guessed what Ma Te ‘button’ is? (Peels, don’t think about that other button). On a serious note, My guess could also be the same button brand choice, Kim Bo Tong. OR it could be his late mom? Well, I guess we have to find them in the next chapter.
After the button discovery, CAN YOU SMELL SOMETHING? *sniff* sniffffs* I smell JEALOUSY! David quickly let go of Bo Tong’s hand when Ma Te approached them. He asked Bo Tong to follow him and he put his arms around her. When they passed David, Ma Te turned his head back to David and gave him that haha-look-whos-got-the-girl-now! While someone was busy holding the trophy, I couldn’t help but notice Bo Tong’s hand resting on Ma Te’s *ahem* back ‘treasure’. Haha.
As promised, Ma Te let Bo Tong take pictures of him posing by the window. This was hilarious! He told Bo Tong that his best side was his right side so he kept posing showing his right side! (Personally, all his sides are my favourites). BWAHAHAHa I laughed so hard when Bo Tong asked him to lick his lips which he agreed. Then, Bo Tong took picture of his annoyed face (heyyy! Me too! I even love when he’s annoyed). He showed his jealousy side AGAIN when Bo Tong refused to go out lunch with him (she told him she had to meet someone) and went “WHO? WHO? WHO?” Was he being possessive or he’s really starting to like her? (of course we know the answer to that)
Ma Te took a walk with the Electric Fairy to thank her for her help in selling the socks. Little did we know, it was actually a goodbye walk when she told him not to see him anymore. “Can you see the button of my heart?” He told her that he saw the button and knew that she loves her. Being a mind reader who is skilled in reading people’s behaviour, who had seen lots of people with different characters, who claimed to have difficulties in trusting people, finally got her wall crumbled down by a thing called LOVE. As a farewell gift, the fairy gave him something that he can use if something is wrong with his heart. (Wonder what it is in the small box? Hmmm)
Ma Te went to his mother memorial site to tell her about his success which he then bumped into Bo Tong. She was actually surprised to see him there “You’ve matured” was the words from Bo Tong which I have to agree (From being playful, gold-digger to an independent man who now has an aim in life – to be successful).
Who would not feel like Bo Tong? Has the same reaction? When Ma Te announced to her that He had made a decision to go far with her. For someone who is completely head over heels, that person could only interpret that into one thing – being a lover! BWAHAHAHA When she was giggling and all that, it just had to stop when Ma te said “to make a lot of money” kweng kweng kweng~ Poor Bo Tong lol
Bo Tong and co invited him to a BBQ party at David’s place. Ma Te was annoyed looking at Bo Tong and David playing around that he ordered her to grill the meat for her. It was a Reflex action for Bo Tong to not refuse at his request. (I swear I’m gonna get into the TV and strangle this narcissist if he does not treat her right after this bwahahha ahem apologies for the girl power in me). A scene that we (at least for me) had been waiting for! Ma Te CARRIED Bo Tong after she got her hand burnt because she refused to go to the Hospital since David offer her a medication. Talking about the power of jealousy and being competitive. LOVE IT! After the hospital incident, Bo Tong imagined being married to her because He was talking about wedding ring (an excuse to cover up how he actually CARES for her). Oh Boy, You are so BUSTED (lol).
Bo Tong’s charms managed to get Ma Te a dinner meeting with Kim In Joong despite her busy schedule. Kim In Joong is not an easy woman to please with. She is very careful with her actions even though she was amazed with his beauty (Royal blue suit, side curls… ). She told him that she wants to help him as she knew that He is someone important to Electric Fairy. Ma Te had another quick meeting with her at the Korea Hospital because she wanted to give her a present.
“A beautiful person needs a beautiful card holder” was what he told her. He gave her a new card holder as he noticed the old one was already worn out. From her big wide smile, We can tell that she was really pleased with it. (Apart of him being sweet, do you notice linoui card holder? VERY NICE)
In this scene, Ma Te had learnt a very important lesson from Kim In Joong when she gave a fountain Pen to the head of surgeon as a thankful ‘gift’ for helping her. “A present given early is a bribe. Given later is a gift”
In order for his business to grow, Ma Te had decided to produce another batch of cleaning socks. He had ordered Bo Tong and David to search for a factory that can manufacture their products but to no avail. UNTIL, they met the director of a company called “FOUR LIMBS factory” in a socks meeting night. It was an association for people who are obsessed (or can appreciate the beauty) of socks. Honestly, I’m amazed by how this thing can exist. This is why i love about Koreans. I get to learn bout things that are seem to be impossible. Amazed at the same time found it hillarious. LOL. The director was fond of her that night because of her sense in fashion! LOL don’t you just love Bo Tong and her cute socks? hee hee hee.
After being rejected by so many factories, FOUR LIMBS was their last savior which did not work out for them when the director chased them out after learning the idea of how a sacred thing to him is going to be used for cleaning products! It was an insult to him!
Of course, our pretty boy came to save the day by appearing in an out of the world outfit during a cold season bwahhahaha. He appears in shorts wearing long socks but not long enough to cover his knees and calves (we could see how his knees turned red after this). This was all worth it when he managed to convince the director about reviving the popularity of the socks ! His speech for the director was like a mantra to bring the dead back but this time it was to bring back the socks (bwahhhaha). Like the director said “OH MY SOCKS! Oh My god!“
Ma Te learnt from the best “A present given early is a bribe. Given later is a gift” when he gave the director his favourite dish which was from Bo Tong’s mom restaurant. He agreed to manufacture the socks for them. The most sweetest thing is when Ma Te decide to name the company as “Bo Tong” . Awwwwwwwwwwww.
Another funny scene is when Bo Tong came home to see a huge wallpaper of Ma Te in her room to replace her choice of having animals on the wall! LOL!
A new challenge came when Yoo Ra’s Mother in Law approached Ma Te in the cafe. She told him that He could continue his business only if he manage to get $400,000 sales in that day! He was asked to leave if he did not manage it. Ma Te agreed to her offer with conditions. The day had finally come for the sales!
The episode ended with a nerve wrecking situation for everyone in the production when the sales did not get much attraction as the first sale! Bo Tong predicted they would not even get $100,000 sales with the current slow phase. Did someone purposely sabotage him? Will he get the $400,000 sales? Is he going to get defeated? I’m still nervous thinking about it! Can’t wait for the next episode!!
P/s: I have a love and hate feeling with this Dok Go Ma Te character. As much as I hate the narcissist side of him, him being possessive, toying the women’s feeling, I could not help but to like him! Hmph! I Want to see more of the other sides of him! I wonder how his love is going to bloom for Bo Tong! I believe Bo Tong’s secret (which she did not notice) ‘weapon’ is using Ma Te jealousy to realise that SHE is for him! I have to SALUTE Bo Tong for holding on to him long! Well, Can’t blame her. We understand! =p
[END]

Izatti, you made me smile when i saw the word peels here. you thought, that you’re in our pond? just kidding. i super like your recap and thank you so much……..
Sis jezreel, i’m glad you love reading my recap eventhough my writing skills are poor. my thoughts area ll over the place. I wanted to write more but i was afraid i could bore the readers. lol. hahha everytime i watch anything peely , i will always think of the PEELS here ! always ! haha and that put a smile on my face he he he
Well, if you love Carly Simon’s ‘You’re So Vain’, you will love Dok Go Mate. I love to see him with apricot scarf, dancing gavotte like in Carly’s song. I think, the Prince, himself is so vain as what he said once that this Mate character matches his real personality. I love the real vain Prince, that makes him excel. If you are too young to know this top Grammy record, do search Carly Simon You’re So Vain in You Tube, you will enjoy it. Her man is really so vain like our Prince. I just love it.
hehehhehe Sudie ! you were right ! I was born 0n 1987 he he he. I ve youtubed the song ! LOVe the song already !!!! thatsss sooo himmmm ehehe
You walked into the party like you were walking onto a yacht ( Sooo MAte and sukkie)
Your hat strategically dipped below one eye
Your scarf it was apricot
You had one eye in the mirror as you watched yourself gavotte
And all the girls dreamed that they’d be your partner ( This is sooooo us his eels)
They’d be your partner, and….
You’re so vain, you probably think this song is about you
You’re so vain, I’ll bet you think this song is about you
Don’t you? Don’t you?
Izzati, thanks a lot for this recap. My favorite of all is how he carried Botong, what a great excuse of his exploding jealousy hahhahaahha. Mate is always doing the opposite. He rewarded Botong ten pictures but all in all he gave 15 including the big tarpaulin for her room. How I wish David would also gave Botong a huge billboard hahahah. And that attire wearing short and long socks to convince the owner of Four Limbs was really the most hilarious. Farina, I also want that tongue hahahhaha… But the best acting Sukkie gave in this episode was his meeting with that evil step Mom, what an intense projection of anger and fear on his face, I could feel the nerves moving all over his body. And the last seconds before the ending credit…OMO I could feel his heart was about to explode in anxiety. How I wish Sukkie will get an award for this drama.
Daryl Lade, totally agree with you. Even my heart feel like it would explode watching the intense of his anxiety and fear in the last few scenes.
OmO-yahhh…at this point….how I wish Koreans would watch Beautiful Man..?? Beautiful Man is as good as any drama can get with the same genre…
Don’t even think far to receiving an award…becoz it’s probable next to impossible to happen….aigoooo.
Thank you sis Izzati for wonderful, funny and great recap. I love it. I love the way you show your reaction and feeling with some scenes, too.
I super LOVE ep#6, I watched it about 5 times by now. I’m so glad to watch that MaTe and BoTong’s relationship start to develop and grow a little, slowly…but surely. I’m totally OK with slow development of relationship and feelings between two people…..it’s reflect the real life.
DoKgo Matte, at this stage of self discovery and growth, the slow and subtle awareness of his feelings for BoTong is so realistic and appropriate based on MaTe’s characters at this moment.
To me, I would be so disappointed if Mate shows sign of deep jealousy or LOVE sick fool….when my Mate’s nature, still pretty much a playboy. Oh Goshhh…..Is it right that Dokgo MaTe pr-destined to meet with 10 women..?? So to declaring dying love for BoTong now would be so ridiculous and hypocrite storylines. Yeahhh…..thank you Writer be being sooo smart to write this way.
As for BoTong and David’s relationship, I always see the comfortable chemistry between this two from the begin…..I don’t know how this relation would lead to.?? Would Botong eventual come to her sense regarding her fantasy love for DoKgo MaTe and offer her true heart to the one person who always show care and willing to help her on everything, David.?? I hope NOT…..because I would like to watch Dokgo Mate’s development in learning and changing to realize true love, beside gaining financial success, with Kim BoTong at the end.
This drama is totally challenging my thinking and senses. I am soo in love with this drama!!
To Jang Keun Suk-ahh,
No matter how hard and difficulty you are experiencing right now with this drama. Even though, many of your people treat Beautiful Man as a “trash”, totally overlooked its qualities and values, Beautiful Man becomes beautiful gift to millions of people around the world. Those millions of people who can see its values and worth. I always trust your and believe in your choice.
Please believe, the quality of this drama, with its unique plots, smart and great educational story-lines will last in audiences’ minds and hearts…for long long time, it not forever…!!!!
Keep on ZiKzin, please!!
Kailey, YILINI kkkk…if the people in Korea do not appreciate this drama as long as we are happy and Sukkie is happy that he gave the best Christmas gift to EELS. But I’m still hoping that Sukkie would be nominated for some award giving bodies, an I’m really hoping for an international award nominations.
Sis Izzati, thank you for the recap
Aside from the actual lesson, for this episode I came to this:
1. Be brave and show no hesitation in front of your enemy, later you could fall on your chair with sigh of relief, make sure you wont fall backward
2. Never have a scar, even the tiny one, on your left hand. Remember that that hand is the hand you’re going to put a ring on when you
get married later.
3. If you want to return one’s favor, give her/him ten pictures of you – or wall paper of you ?
4. Stick the tongue out pose is cheesy – not for one pervy 26 years old girl
5. Frenemies is frenemies, but when it deals with working together with frenemies, thank them properly for great job done.
btw, sis love ur name.
LOL….
I like your Frenemies…Matae will meet a lot of them..but his character is such even he is artful to make women do what he wants without lifting a finger he is equally innocent when comes to other life experiences…in that he finds his mate in Bo Tong and even in Yura who (although has her own agenda) guides him to learn
I love your Frenemies too.
Thanks for the recap sis Izzati :). This episode made me laugh so much… That scene with the president of the sock company… omo… i almost fell down from my chair haha… But our boy Ma Te really learned his lesson in making connection well… Impressive for such a pretty boy who immediately agreed to lick his lip when asked by his ultimate ‘fangirl’ lol… *Sis Farina, I want that tongue too!!! Peely me… Oopsie*.
Anyway, i’m also glad that the writer has started to work on the ‘romance department’ of the three characters :). We need a small dose of real romance every now & then ;). Can’t wait to watch the next ep. We were left with such an anxious feeling about how the sock selling would end up… And oh… Can’t wait to see the royal hotness haircut…
O…I’m a bit scared to see what will happen with Matae..did Hong Ran do something to hurt or sabotage ..Matae was a bit unstable on his very handsome shoes
So curious about the new woman and their sparks
The way I understand it based on the previous article about the different women Mate would meet,the fourth woman he met that in the past prior to Jaek Hee. And she was his first love. Maybe Mate met that woman when he was in high school or maybe in the university.
I love what he did with the fairy. To help someone open up like a flower and not pick it- beautiful. Alas, she needs to protect herself and her family.
Off to learning a new skill, people pleasing! Ooops I mean networking. I’m tired watching that poor woman. He does pull off the sock factory meeting with such pizazz, though.
David and Bo Tong’s “met in the psych ward” relationship is cute and I hope it stays just “cute”. More fun that way.
Thanks for the recap!
