My Dearest Part 2 ?
It’s time to let go of this drama... but not without saying: THIS DRAMA TOPS IT ALL.
From the acting, storyline, OST, musical score, cinematography, to the love line — BROOO it’s just SO GOOD. PLEASE.
🌟 The Heart of Part 2:
This part really highlighted Jang Hyun’s sacrifices — both for Joseon and for Gil Chae.
Tell me, which man loves the same woman for nine solid years?!
WHO?! The things he endured and did — for love and for his country — no one does it like him. Period. 😭
📝 Deeper Thoughts:
This drama didn’t just give us romance — it opened eyes to the brutality of war, especially for women.
Back then, women were captured, sold, or even forced into sexual slavery. It wasn't their fault. They shouldn’t be blamed or shamed for losing their chastity — yet they were. The scenes where women had to commit suicide or mutilate themselves just to avoid disgrace? Horrifying.
Meanwhile, what were the men — the scholars — doing? Just sitting, shouting at the king? Words weren't enough. This drama really showed how women had to step up, protect themselves, survive, and fight in their own way. Truly powerful. 🥲
✨ Noteworthy Episodes:
Ep 13:
The ending when Jang Hyun saw Gil Chae at the slave market… and the OST started playing 😭
His shock and rage — unforgettable.
Ep 17:
“You are all I need. Poor Gil Chae, rich Gil Chae, cheeky Gil Chae, gentle Gil Chae, Gil Chae who doesn’t love me, my beloved Gil Chae — you are enough.”
And when she asked,
“What about the Gil Chae taken by foreign intruders?”
He replied,
“I should hug her. She must be suffering. It was very painful, wasn’t it?”
I MELTED
Ep 18:
The Crown Prince really slayed here. He was willing to go against his own father — the king — to bring back the captives from Qing. RESPECT.
Ep 21 (Finale):
A happy ending 😭 We made it!!!
🎶 Noteworthy OST – Part 2:
Love Affair by 2NB — this one hit so hard. The emotions it carried in every scene? Ugh, perfection. 🤍
Final Thoughts:
This drama has officially earned its spot as one of my favorite dramas of all time. ✨
It's beautiful, painful, inspiring, and unforgettable.
“My Dearest” — thank you for the heartbreak, the healing, and the masterpiece that you are. 🌙
