Goofs:

Anachronisms: Jin's actions occur before the plane crash (that is before 2004). However, when he goes to the toy shop to buy the Panda, you can clearly see the video game (NBA Live 08), which was released in 2007.

Quotes:

Bernard Nadler: Rose... has cancer. She's sick. Dying. Well, she was dying. She says she's better now. She says it's this place. The island. But when the camp split up, I was sure that she'd want to go with Locke. Why would she want to leave the island and risk getting sick again?
Jin Kwon: Then why do you stay with Jack?
Bernard Nadler: Because it was the right thing to do. Locke, he's a murderer. It's all about karma, Jin. You know karma? You make bad choices, bad things happen to you. But you make good choices, and then good...

The New Born and the Janitor

Sun tells Jin that she does not trust on the new acquaintances Daniel and Charlotte and she decides to move to Locke's camp. Juliet discovers her intention and tries to stop Sun telling Jin about her affair. Meanwhile in a flash forward, Sun delivers the baby girl Ji Yeon while Sun insistently seeks a Panda for the new born. Sayid and Desmond are introduced to Captain Gault immediately after the suicide of the crewman Regina in the supply vessel Kahana owned by Charles Widmore; when they are sent to their new accommodations, they meet the janitor Kevin Johnson responsible for the cleaning of their cabin.

"Ji Yeon" together with "Eggtown" are the best episodes of the Fourth Season of "Lost" so far. We see that Sun and her baby survives and,Sun is another name officially included in the list of the Oceanic Six together with Hurley, Kate and Jack, but it is not clear what might have happened with Jin; but the most intriguing part of the episode is the identity of Ben's spy on board of the Kahana, Kevin Johnson. The new mystery about Jin is also very interesting in spite of the manipulative flash forward. My vote is nine.
