The East Palace Episode 8

A very good ending, with the possibility of a season 2

Wow, the way they were ready to sacrifice their lives for each other... And both almost died. 😟 But thankfully, they pulled through and defeated the Crown Prince's spirit. 😮‍💨And the ending? I really liked that they stayed together, left the palace, and the little Ggeomeoksali followed. 🤗But it did look a lot like an open ending, which means the creators could easily decide to make a second season. Not sure if that's needed, though, but there are things they haven't answered yet... 🤨For example, what the creepy thing in the woods said — about someone who's neither spirit nor human having to die (it actually could be either of them, because they both have dead mothers and both can sense the spirit world, even if differently, but most likely it was about Gu Cheon). So, the unanswered question is: why did that child have to die then? And why was it meant to die now? And maybe their near-deaths count towards that? 🤔Also, Gu-cheon becoming an ak-gwi with a chain bound to Supreme Gwi-mae. How does that affect his future interactions with the spirit world? Will he always be an ak-gwi when he enters there? Is he in servitude to Supreme Gwi-mae? And I could ask so many more questions about this bit. 🫣But long story short — amazing drama, worth every second. The plot twists were unexpected, the atmosphere remained eerie, creepy, and even horrifying at times, the music was spot on, and the cinematography too. Loved the main trio (yes, I count the little plushie too) and I hope they will have amazing adventures in the future! ❤️
