I feel so many people have misunderstood the characters of this drama and the message behind the ending, and while…
I log in just to like your post. Well written post. It's very concerning the amount of people justifying and supporting Ah-jin's characters. Jun Seo only wanted to put a stop, so, Ah Jin couldn't hurt more people and he was only took that step after Jae Oh's death. Idk where he wanted to have Ah Jin all by himself come from but yes, he loved her however the madness need to be stopped. Unfortunately, he died and Ah-Jin survived which I believe there might be season 2. I do hope we will see the downfall of her psycho husband first.
I went blankly for this drama, knowing only about the good scenery part.I liked your review and how you came again…
Thank you for that. I understood better after rewatch and simply enjoyed the series more. Actually, many times Sakaguchi and Arimura had acted together but this is the first series of them that I really liked the ending. Huhu..
I’ve been thinking about Hong a lot lately—about the quiet, unresolved ache of her story. It feels so familiar,…
Yup, that's what I've been thinking and you said them beautifully. Hong needs to search love for herself, treasures herself more than anyone else. Jungo had the same problem with his childhood trauma with his mother and there was Kanna, both of them left him and I'd thought he must be alone since then. But, he slowly trying to recover himself from that pain. Until episode 5, we're heavily been narrated on Hong's POV, maybe once she open the book and read it, she knows how to understand Jungo and mostly herself more. I agreed with you that she doesn't need to end up with anyone (If that the unusual route that the director chose). She choose herself will be a happy ending for me.
