so she died without standing a trial...what a bummer!!!
All signals pointing towards him....it would be super weird if they make someone else the mastermind, it has to be him so it makes sense...otherwise it is too bad of a story...
Also he said to FL he needs to go abroad for work...it is pretty obvious...
Nothing is more repulsive and atrciously self-righteous than finishing sentences with ‘period’ and ‘no discussion…
I understand that strong statements can be perceived as final, but my intent wasn’t to shut down conversation—rather, to emphasize the depth of my conviction on a deeply personal issue. While I value open discussion, there are certain values and principles that, for me, are non-negotiable. I’m always open to a respectful exchange of ideas, but sometimes, clarity and firmness are necessary to express just how strongly I feel. Let’s continue to engage with respect, as the diversity of perspectives only strengthens the conversation.
Here’s what I think, and I stand by it. Believe me, I’ve personally experienced watching someone I deeply loved suffer in pain. Yet, no matter how difficult it was, life has to run its course. In the series, it’s portrayed beautifully, almost dreamlike, with characters calmly asking for death to be granted to them. But in reality, it’s far from pretty.
How can people talk about pain and death so casually? Does it really seem that simple to you? Does it seem so easy that someone on their deathbed can make such a request, and it’s granted just like that? The truth is much messier, more complicated, and filled with emotions that can’t be wrapped up so neatly.
People here often grant their empathy and emotions more power than the actual crime committed. Perhaps it’s a morally challenging subject, but one thing is very clear: hiding the truth is a crime, regardless of its weight—whether big or small. When you choose to speak the truth, there’s no need to hide, no matter how dire the consequences, even if it means facing death. Truth carries a power that transcends fear, and in embracing it, we find clarity and integrity.
But Dr. Kan believed firmly in his own principles. However, living through pain oneself doesn’t automatically grant the right to impose what you feel is right on others or to justify actions solely based on personal experience. Enduring hardship may shape our perspectives, but it doesn’t make them universally correct or give us the authority to act as we please. Pain is deeply personal, but morality and ethics require a broader lens that considers others' rights, choices, and the larger implications of our actions.
Even when others willingly surrender their rights and transfer that power to you, it still doesn’t make you an executioner. You are not greater than life, nor are you larger than death. The sanctity of life and the gravity of death demand humility and restraint, not the assumption of a role that belongs beyond human authority.
Euthanasia, regardless of how noble the intentions may seem, is fundamentally flawed and ethically indefensible. Dr. Kan’s actions underscore the complexity of this issue—despite his good intentions, his decisions were riddled with moral ambiguity and consequences that could not be undone. Legalizing euthanasia opens the door to a host of dangerous implications. It sends a message that life’s value can be measured by its perceived quality, which risks dehumanizing those who are vulnerable or dependent. The mere existence of a legal option for euthanasia could pressure individuals—whether explicitly or implicitly—into ending their lives to spare their families or society from perceived burdens. This is not compassion; it is coercion cloaked in good intentions.
Furthermore, even the best safeguards cannot eliminate the potential for abuse or error. Human judgment is fallible, and a system allowing euthanasia would inevitably be manipulated by individuals with selfish motives or by societal biases against those seen as "unproductive." Trust in the medical profession, already fragile in many societies, would be irreparably damaged. How can patients fully trust doctors if they know that ending life is an officially sanctioned option? Medicine must remain steadfast in its commitment to heal, alleviate suffering, and preserve dignity without crossing the moral line of taking life.
Pain and suffering, though deeply tragic, can be addressed through advances in palliative care and psychological support. Choosing euthanasia over such solutions diminishes society's commitment to finding humane ways to manage end-of-life challenges. Good intentions cannot sanitize the act of euthanasia; taking a life—regardless of the reasoning—is inherently wrong.
Euthanasia, no matter how well-intentioned, crosses an irreversible moral line that diminishes the sanctity of life and the trust in humanity's compassion. As Albert Schweitzer profoundly said, 'The purpose of human life is to serve, and to show compassion and the will to help others.' Ending life under the guise of mercy forsakes this purpose and weakens the moral fabric of society."
I understand and respect the arguments of those who say "yes" to euthanasia, but my stance remains firm: life, in all its complexities and vulnerabilities, is worth protecting. Standing by this belief is not an act of defiance, but a commitment to preserving the dignity and value of every human being.
I wrote long para, but then deleted, no need. What Kan did was wrong. Period. There is no discussion needed. The whole thing is ambiguous, and the ending was expected.
It is a good series, may be not the best, but it did it job.
sometimes lesser known cast do wonders, they added all the start cast after the success..hope it is a maker, otherwise if they leave too much cliffhanger for season 3, then it will be a bummer, a good cliffhanger doesn't mean you need to make an ending incomplete it can be complete but more is needed so wait is bearable...
I think SML is the psycho killer who is obsessed over the FL and he is the one who is trying to breakup the main…
that’s our guess…but in novel he doesn’t have any role very minor character so they changed that…but yes this is the only possibility left and they won’t make a new character for the sake of culprit…we guessers it way earlier…it is him…as in novel he doesn’t have any appearance but in series he is like SMl so they created this mystery of him…
They keep making appearances in these BLs, when on earth they will get their own BL again, after making the whole BL world heart broken they make these 1 sec cameo and bring back our dire urge to see them again...please come back soon and give us BL with happy ending....
I hope CMR has a misunderstanding and later she come about it and help FL when it will be revealed who she is. I feel like CMR came to revenge on her because of misunderstanding that OTY might have caused on CMR family.
The tirals and tribulations for FL in this drama should be like this, as she is having a secret that is very big in that time of period, so it is not tiring to see that she is on verge of problems everyday....it is exactly how it should be.
Loved so far, hope it continues like that, her brother in law is safe and sound.
OMG the dream trio, KHJ, HJM, LJE, they are so solid when they work together. Their performance in Nooni Bushige aka Light In Your Eyes, were out of this world!!!
It's way too obvious wan peng is the real killer from these episodes (maybe Iam wrong) i didn't read the novel…
the thing is in novel people say the SML is not there, he doesn't have any importance, he is just a senior and minor character, but in series he has a lead type role. so we don't know. but it is 90% sure that he and that bitch friend did all this to separate ML-FL, but thats very far fetched, since in those 8 years nothing happened!!!
Have you been to China before? You made some points but don't be too obvious about what you aren't sure of.
Have you actually read what I wrote? I never said that China is not safe to live in—I’ve always emphasized that it’s very safe. My comment wasn’t about real-life situations; I acknowledge that good and bad people exist everywhere, so there’s no need to comment on that.
What I’m discussing is the representation in media. If you look at any Chinese TV series or film, you’ll notice that bad guys are always caught by the good guys. It’s virtually impossible for any media to pass approval in China if it doesn’t align with CCP policies. You can’t portray China negatively or show a bad image of the country. As a result, many series end up being far from reality.
You can choose to accept or reject this observation, but you can’t take your own thoughts, turn them into facts, and present them as the truth.
What I love about CN mystery/murder/thriller show is that they don't drag it out like Korean and JP, because they don't want to show that People's police is incompetent and not smarter than criminals. So they have to force their political agenda and country's leader image to showcase that CN in No 1 in everything, catching criminals to having all the great mind working to showcase they overpower all kind of issues, that other people have not handled well, as they do.
This fake and cringy approach is very good for me, as I don't want to see the dragging stuff to the end. Korea is enough for dragging matters and criminals to the end and still they roam free and their is no punishment, but because of CN political agenda and country's Image this is done is very swiftly, quickly and scripted way that I don't have to get all angsty and boil my blood for nothing, as I know they will catch all the bad people in a jiff.
All signals pointing towards him....it would be super weird if they make someone else the mastermind, it has to be him so it makes sense...otherwise it is too bad of a story...
Also he said to FL he needs to go abroad for work...it is pretty obvious...

I wish Korea had adapted their webtoon, but Japan did a fabulous job.
