Jumong Episode 25

A son seeks a way to reconnect with his father and his legacy (spoilers)

I loved this episode. No one is going to tell Jumong the truth about his lovely father, so he goes out to try and get closer to him and his ideas...not only to capture closeness he is missing but also to regain a sense of his self and affirm his goals. He is accompanied by his three musketters and in that we see the formation of foundations for things to come.

My heart keeps breaking as I feel for Jumong's loss even more and it immediately makes me want to rage on Geum wa for his selfishness...even though Geum Wa is in a precarious position and has to be careful, his action at the start of the drama were driven by ulterior motives, while Hae Mo Sul was s selfless. Gosh, my heart is really breaking for this father and son, who are one an yet never had a chance to be together. My heart both break and warms at this, really Hae Mo Su has left a strong imprint on me but what he was Jumong starts to emulate now and will outgrow...while eclaiming all that had been taken from his because of selfish desires and fear.

And so Jumong affirms his mission and goals and gains foundation and thus breaks free from the lies that had bounded him up to know. He is no longer the prince but has finally returne to his true origins. The final scene was very nice. Cinematography in here is simply lovely.
