To this day I don't have the heart to continue this drama. I already know it was going to tear my heart apart. One day I will have the guts to watch it and go through the emotions as only Korean dramas know how.
By the clock you mean the golden watch? - the watch was dropped by the person who caused the hit-and-run in the…
Ohh... but she didn't smile. She let out a sob.
The clock didn't stop thought. The day went by and after 12 hours (same time as it started but 12 hours later). This signaled the end of the operation, so she realized he was dead by then.
Then she go to the ocean and 'released' him. It is a very dramatic, sad ending, but it wasn't a bad ending if you think about it. Some Korean dramas are too brutal and take melodrama to the extreme.
I like the way you think. It's good to think he may be alive somewhere. :)

LOL I don't know if you are trolling me or being serious. I had to watch the last episode again to remember the details, thinking that probably there were clues I missed. Not happy to have cried all over again though.
The ending was very clear on him dying. 1. He was shot on the base of his head. 100% brain dead. 2. They all knew he was not coming back alive from the operation. 3. She said goodbye to him, send off the necklace as a symbolic act that he was finally free from all worries.
They didn't have to say 'he died' - it was obvious he did.
Yup will look at the overall score and some reviews on MDL first before starting 😊
I don't fully trust the MDL's comments though -- A lot of the dramas I absolutely love, have some pretty shady comments in them. Same for score or reviews. I try to follow people who share similar tastes to mine - that is what helps me in the end. For the rest, is about luck really. Also, I have a varied taste for dramas and it depends a lot on my mood.
I hope you don't miss out on some awesome dramas because they are not 'mainstream'!
shouldn't modern sensibilities towards injustice allow these reactions while understanding the that it's historical…
I know.. I wish for some who actually made it from nothing. However, that would fall on fantasy period dramas.. because, no one without power ever made it pass her class back in that time.
Even if the woman herself was 'illegitimate' that didn't mean she didn't have a family backing her up... it was pretty unfair.
Dong Yi was after Jang Ok Jung... this one should be watched first if you want background of historical figures....…
What I am saying is that... this drama covers a bit more of a 'background' on the characters in Dong Yi in connection to Ok Jung. (this is about the story before she became a concubine). This drama is not about those people.. but Ok Jung herself, so it won't go into detail about anyone else.
Watching this one first would be the correct chronological order based on how events happened in real life, then watching Dong Yi would be next. If we based it on when the dramas were made then Dong Yi would be first. So, I suggest watching this one first then Dong Yi.

There were few cases of women who did this. I believe the drama is called "Nothing Gold Can Stay" is about such a woman too. I understand the outrage about how it used to be. Makes me appreciate more the strength these women had. There were even a couple of women who were actually the rulers instead of their children, or had a lot of power on their emperor sons.
Also I believe this story is set in the late 1800's.. so a bit more modern than other drama settings.
This drama is based on real life events. The full story of these people does end with a 'happy ending' if you…
The drama didn't follow the rest of the story after Wenggui becomes Kunmi. darn it. I guess because everything was happy ever after. oh well.. Excellent acting, excellent drama.
