jane the virgin and woori the virgin got their endings mixed up and just... thank goodness i watched neither.…
In Jane The Virgin, Jane marries her fiance. They have a happy marriage until his death. She's alone for the next few seasons co-parenting, focusing on her career as a writer, only getting together with Raphael years and years later after he grows up.
This is a good show to focus on the message. And the message is never to involve your parents or in-laws in any decision making circumstances when it comes to your wedding, your marriage or your children.
This is eerily similar to my best friend and her husband. After years of an unhappy marriage, they got divorced, which effectively cut the parents and in-laws from their lives. Now they have found themselves back to each other. They live together with their kids, and they are the happiest they've ever been. And they will continue to stay divorced to keep their parents and in-laws at bay.

Totally agree. It's all about taste. I love revenge dramas. So I don't mind the realistic ending happening once in a while, since most revenge dramas end with the satisfying ending.
Also, did not know about the original ending. Pretty accurate then.

I believe books, tv shows and movies should have a healthy dose of both reality and fiction. Not all stories should be fiction, nor should all stories be a representative of reality. There are plenty of revenge dramas that give a satisfying ending (eg:- Military Prosecutor Doberman, Taxi Driver, Lawless Lawyer, Remember, Pinocchio, Vincenzo, Itaewon Class, Doctor Prisoner etc), so dramas where they have a realistic ending are in the minority.
I think the journey matters here because while the ML did everything by himself in the first life, he gained a huge family of people supporting him and his cause in the second life. He gained more and lost less in the second life and I love that.

In real life, most of the big bads get away. They go abroad, hide out with the billions they've stolen and kept safe in secret accounts like in the Seychelles. And when that happens, someone always takes over to fill the vacuum of power. And the main big bad's underlings flock to the new person holding the power.
I get the ending. It doesn't have the traditional kdrama revenge plot ending, but I can't be mad, because the writer clearly knows how the real world works.
As someone who's in the law profession, I got to say... I loved this. The law, the politics, the games... it was my kind of drama.
I especially enjoyed the ending, as frustrating as it might be to some, because it's very much like real life, and trust me, being in criminal law is frustrating!!!
The orginal jane the virgin was a master piece, unfortunately this drama is no way near the orginal. First of…
100% agree. They've dropped all the best parts from Jane the Virgin. A strong FL, character growth in the two MLs. They have been dropped for weak characterisations with almost zero personality. And the fact that there is no one as dramatic as Rogelia De La Vega is the biggest disappointment for me.
Shows like this make me genuinely wonder why people care about the private lives of celebrities. It literally has nothing to do with them. If it doesn't directly affect your life, why care? The fact that agencies give them that power of fickle importance makes it worse.
It's just not fun. It's not over the top, dramatic or funny enough. It's just not quirky.
And because I've seen my fair share of quirky and hilarious kdramas with the most ridiculous plots, the fact that this show is more boring than humourous is a big let down.
READ ONLY IF YOU WANT TO KNOW THE ENDING OF THE ENGLISH SERIESIn the English series she almost ends up marring…
Actually, she does get married to Michael (KJ in the Korean series). She chooses him first. They have a happy marriage. But he "dies" and comes back with amnesia and a completely different personality, which ends their relationship. She doesn't end up with Raphael until years later after he's gone through a character growth.
I guess this is a show where they list all the reasons not to get married, but show the couple going through with the wedding regardless of the warning signs...?
The father raised Hyun Jae to be level headed.
The mother raised Soo Jae to be spoiled af.

Currently caught up to episode 7 and the only person I like is him. Everyone else frustrates me.
