I think it was a smart decision to make QY "admit" on killing LYs mother. She had to run away because of YL and…
Okay? That makes sense 👍🏽 I forgot about it the conversation at the end w/LY. I agree that everyone needs space to figure it out themselves so that there wouldn’t be any resentment in the future!
Um okay....that was the most random four episodes every. Seriously, C-drama writers do not know how to end anything or what? It reminded me of the Imperial Coroner because it felt so rushed! I hated how everything was rushed BUT I didn't mind where the characters ended up or their fates. I just wished they would have given it breathing room. For example, it made sense why LY's mother killed her husband. Back then, women didn't have a say in their marriage so I don't think there was any love lost there. She probably had no choice. But she and the Queen did have a true sisterly bond and loved each other enough to sacrifice for one another. LY's mother did what she did to protect the Queen, and the Queen killed herself to protect YL's mother, and to an extent, LY also. That is genuine love between two women that we don't see often in C-drama. Another show of sisterly love and hate was QY and QM's relationship. From the flashback, it seem that QM really did love QY and looked up to her sister, but QY was busy being bitter and selfish that she left QM hanging. QY was a strong woman and assumed that QY would be too, but didn't realize that QM needed support and love from her big sister. So QM grew up loving, admiring, and resenting her older sister. And it didn't help that QY found out about QM's love for QX and still pursued him. I don't hold it against QY for doing that but I also know that she wasn't totally innocent in how everything turned out either. Ultimately. QM sacrificed herself for QY and not QX so deep down there is still love. I was glad they were able to come to an understanding at the end. I will never forgive QM for what she did to QX but that is something they left in the air so I like that it was not a true happy ending for QM.
As for QY and LY, it didn't make sense to me that she would lie about it because LY would have figured it out eventually. But the writers just wanted some last minute angst I guess. It sucked that LY had to process everything and grieve by himself but they have a whole ass lifetime together to process everything. I am glad they didn't give her a child. I liked that LY and QY both became writers. And the ending where they found each other and showed the bracelets with the voice over was perfect for me. It was never a mushy romance so I didn't expect them to be mushy at the end.
And the random assassination plot? I'm going to pretend that didn't exist cuz WTF???? That was such huge misstep. The writers were so goofy there.
Anyways, this was just my two cents. It's a long random rant but overall I enjoyed it very much and give it a solid 9!
This FL is simply too outrageous, high strung and overbearing for my liking. She's almost a parody of every stock…
I like her character very much. She’s smart & pragmatic, and doesn’t suffer from romantic yearnings because she sees how women are treated so she takes her chances to make the best of her situation. She can be overzealous and selfish at times but I think it works for her. Of course, we all have different opinions on why we like certain characters better than others and that’s okay! Which FL have you enjoyed watching so far? I’m just curious.
I'm up to episode 30 and still loving this show very much! I'm so sad what happened to Song Jin and if the teaser about his mom comes true, then I think the writers are clearing up loose ends toward a happy ending. Why? Because QY wants to be free and LY said he is willing to give her everything she wants. I think they will travel the world and write stories together, but if his mom is still alive, as a filial son, he wouldn't be able to follow QY. This is my prediction.
As for poor QX, I feel so bad for him. It would be awesome if we can get a sequel so he can have his own adventures and find his true love because QM does not deserve him, and he deserves love <3
