This week’s episodes confirm it. The uncle is not dead. There is no way he wouldn’t have pegged Jung-Min from the start. The whole of episode 5 was him toying with him. He knew the recording of his niece was fake and that’s why he listened to it multiple times. The fact that his cause of death was ‘su*cide’ and the cctv cuts out is another clue. This is the only way he could control how he ‘died’. He had to do it himself. Yup, Unc is alive.

This is what happens when people think the main plot is the romance, when in actuality the main plot is the game and how the missions relate to making Yeo-Woon happy. The romance is just one aspect of it. But I think the game is also as much to do with Myung-Ha as it is to do with Yeo-Woon. It can’t be a coincidence that the game world is his old neighbourhood and that the things he’s had to deal with in real life are intertwining themselves into the game. Why do I feel like the game creator/the senior from the first episode is Yeo-Woo or Sang-Won. Others have said it’s not possible as they don’t look alike but I can’t shake the feeling that the game is autobiographical.

“did you know that some thai fans of this series donated to the foundation of blind in Thailand.”

This is so beautiful. I love it when movies/television/music inspires good.

“….since I feel like it turned into the usual GMMTV type of ending”

Jimmy and Sea really proved their acting chops in this one. This was my first series watching them and I was really impressed. So much so I went back to watch their other series Vice Versa and realised Last Twilight was their opportunity to prove what they can do. They did a really good job. Their acting was the highlight of the series. Mark as Night was such a great character. In the end I loved his character the most.

Exactamundo. 👏
Although episodes 1-10 are a solid 8.5 for me

I kinda feel the same as you, although I am happy they ended up together and never wanted a version where they don’t end up together (although I could accept that if handled right). However, I’m quite surprised at how much this final episode annoyed me. I think it was probably a delayed reaction from the events of last episode but mostly I think it’s because they set the bar so high for the majority of the series and it felt like a bit of a slap in the face to revert back to typical bl tropes when they’ve proved for the previous 10 episodes that they could and did do better than that.

Having them break up in that way (I would have had no issues with them breaking up if it was done right), which only served the plot and nothing else was so jarring. It took me out of the series for the first time. I liken it to those high school relationships when we were creating drama in our relationships for drama sake, so that our relationships seemed dramatic and ‘epic’. This was very childish of us and so was this trope being used in episode 11. It let the previous quality of writing down.

I also think I had a delayed reaction because I genuinely thought they would bring that quality of writing back in the final episode but from the start of the episode to the end, it just annoyed me. In typical bl tropey fashion, they pretend that the very serious implications of what happened doesn’t need to be given an adequate response from the characters. Just continue as if all is well and since the plan is for them to reunite and get back together, let’s not let something as important as dealing with the effects of that get in the way of the happy ending they are marching towards. 🙄

Still, I know I’ll be more receptive to the finale once I watch it again a little later on when my annoyance subsides. I’ll wait untill then before rating the series. It’s still a great series overall and is absolutely one of the better ones. Just throwing my two cents in because the people in the comments talking about P’Aof just because people are expecting better from him (like he’s shown he’s capable of for the majority of the series). My question to you guys is this: How do we get better bls if we don’t voice our opinions/feedback? Granted no one of importance is going to see them in the MDL comments section but the comments are valid.

Thanks

Is it two episodes each Wed and Thurs?

“….that means i can go full conspiracy theory if i want to....so please indulge me this.”

This has got to be my favourite sentence in this comments section. 😄😂

True. It’s a shame he ran off with everyone’s money. I hope he didn’t really do that.

She lost an ally, gained an ally. 😅

I picked up on that too in the first episode. From the moment he volunteered to clean the bathroom and said he worked for the uncle I suspected him but then he gave the phone to FL instead of keeping it so I realised he needed something from her that she didn’t know she had/only she has access to.

I got the vibes from him from the first episode but was really hoping my instincts were wrong and that he was there to help the FL.

Also, back when I watched this I didn’t interpret that scene in the last episode as SA. I can see how people may think it fits into that box but given the context of that whole scene, I’m pretty sure they were having angry sex.

Anyone who’s ever been in an argument with their partner knows that when you are so mad, if your partner tries to touch you or comes near you, you are not having it. You might even throw hands. Z was angry that Chen Yi didn’t tell him he was leaving and that’s what he was reacting against. Not Chen Yi’s advances. Usually that intense fighting turns into makeup sex because there is a fine line between anger and lust. I’ve seen a few scenes in bls that I would consider straight up SA. *cough* *couch* Love Mechanics (even though they showed the guy as being ‘ok’ with it afterwards. I still didn’t think it was ok).

I am in no way trying to excuse SA and think that consent is an important part of any relationship. I also think that implicit consent is also a part of relationships. It’s built on trust, really knowing your partner and having a level of comfortability with them.

Agree with 100% what you said. I purposely chose to specify SK as that is the context/country in which the drama is based but yeah, you are spot on.

Exactly. This is why many people have multiple su*cide attempts and often it’s after they seem to be doing better. Unless you address the underlying causes, everything is just a bandaid and that includes a ‘new perspective.’

I didn’t like the su*cide propaganda either. It was essentially victim blaming/guilt tripping. It’s as if they think most ppl who contemplate su*cide don’t know that their loved ones would be left devastated (in as much as any person can really know anything without having the experience of it playing out). People know this, this is why it often takes years of struggling with something for them to actually go through with it. Their pain sadly cannot be remedied by the future pain of their loved ones. The better message would have been to focus on the cause (which was how a person’s life in SK can be made or broken by getting employment. There is too much financial and social stigma tied up in being employed that you are seen as a literal failure if you fail to get employment).

I co-sign the message of valuing life but it’s not devaluing life that leads people to these drastic actions. Therefore the solution is not guilt tripping people who are basically on their knees. The solution is to help create an environment where people are valued.

Yes to the Neverending Story. 🙌

No problem.
