i actually watched bits of Part I too because I was looking for more information, and saw that there's practically a younger everyone within the Daekan forces xD.
I really love that this series is so complex that the story is worth revisiting to understand subplots differently and bring the details together. I don't see TV series that are built that well often!

As for Yangcha, since the beginning I wanted to know why being silent was part of his training. 20 years later in the story, what I'm wondering is why his no-talking training isn't over!

The series ends with the story at its peak. It builds such a complex world and especially in part 3 the writers create so many routes just ready to be explored that I really, really hope the continuation Arthdal is clearly ready for can be made.
It'd a be a terrible waste if they stopped such quality and potential here.

I'm happy I found the series and watched this much of it, but please let it continue! All the content is there, and the plot and the characters deserve it.

I always thought we don't know enough about him whenever he appeared onscreen. Yangcha's the top relevant but underdeveloped character in the series... I'd like to see more of his interaction with Tanya too (I think he'll learn a lot just by being with her), though frankly I'd be more than happy with just a season 2 confirmation :'(

Thank you for adding those to the list! I'm remembering about them now.

She reads Saya's mind after he takes her to the cave in part 3 for a White Peak's Heart secret meeting. She responds to something he has thought without noticing. I think that's when somebody first notices that she can read minds.

Tanya has read various' people's minds up until now. Besides Yangcha's definitely Saya's (in part 2), and I wondered whether she didn't hear thoughts from Asa Mot and Asa Sakan in a single scene from part 3.

Fortunately we can write reviews for that, they remind us of our own opinions ^^

Rather sweet, especially the male lead was quite a joyful person and I was both intrigued and amused by the beginning in Seoul's 1970s. The plot, though, had quite a few gaps to fill: some small events are hard to understand because of how (I suppose) the story needs to be crammed in two episodes, the romance is stopped short and, most of all, why do men in such stories disappear incomprehensibly so often?!

Not at all, I'm also trying to figure out why some things were left hanging unnecessarily or why his health was so irregular... And especially why the male character had to disappear for almost a year at the end! (I'm commenting late, but I just watched it). Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

It was at first hard to get into the film, since I didn't like the general environment and energy of it. That changed for the better later on.
I became mostly intrigued with individual, disconnected scenes, but those are too loose to be invested in the film as a whole within the first watch. It's a pretty peculiar piece of cinema so seeing it again could be worth it.

So disappointed that On Dal travelled to modern time but not a thing of how he did and reacted there was shown.
That could've fixed up my poor last impressions of the drama slightly, since I had that one event left to look forward to—a throwback to the first episode's comedy.

I thought so during that scene too.

For the 24 hours after watching this drama I'd often think about the characters fondly, and then I'd remember how the endings for each of them were so frustratingly cut short and I'd startle with annoyance. Such is the risk of watching a drama so long that it becomes an agreeable ever-available commodity.

As a sidenote, I realised after completing it that Orabeoni is the most beautiful person in the series in all ways, but especially in character.

Having seen it just once, I can agree! I assume it isn't any less frustrating on repeat.

Was anyone else thoroughly annoyed by the change of cast when the characters grow older?
The young actors seemed far better suited.

I was close to dropping it, and now so, so glad I didn't! The plot isn't flawless but it grows to deliver several great scenes. Despite the number of episodes, the series didn't feel long in the slightest.
Most importantly, the two main characters in the Joseon era are wonderful people, as is their story and their artwork. They were great to watch in every aspect. I also really appreciated with how much detail the artworks are shown, and the soundtrack as well. Lovely songs.

I was actually looking forward to a this comedy when I read the premise... But in the end, the protagonist becoming small wasn't done interestingly, and I couldn't like the male lead at all. Overall too silly to keep watching.

There's one storyline that is always political (Jeon Hye Ji's because of her character's mother-in-law), but the rest of the series is really not like the first 30 minutes. It focuses on romance and the two rival companies.
