"Ji Yeon" was an episode that toyed with the audience.  The structure of the episode was unlike anything Lost had ever produced: a dual flash back/flash forward.  It was a heartbreaking episode, and one which should earn Yunjin Kim an Emmy nomination.  For a majority of the episode, we thought that Jin had made it back to the mainland and was on his way to the birth of his child.  When Sun arrived, with Hurley, at Jin's grave, however, we knew that Lost had been playing us, giving us a look back at the person Jin was before reaching the island.  In perhaps the most emotional scene ever filmed for Lost, Sun spoke to Jin at his grave.  My living room, like millions of others across the country, got a little dusty in that moment.
