Right? For a good while this was absent from Asian shows but not any longer. And I absolutely loathe it. This year especially has been bad.

At least RR has finally cured me of watching shows in real time. I am not touching anything ever again before it is done and I can thoroughly spoil myself to be sure I can watch.

So many plot holes now. Starting from his mother, how did she die, suicide or heart attack then, to why his father is still poor, the looks, that recording... everything from 2-14 is pointless.

I was really looking forward to that last scene because it was so satisfying to see him at the place of his murder, now a super successful, fulfilled man who got them back and instead we got this mess 🤦

She wrote it to subvert expectations for the sake of subverting expectations, not for the sake of wrapping up the plot as a logical, satisfying whole. And she did it because of her own ego. That can always result in only one thing - absolute misery.

In the novel, after the grandfather dies (this part was also different), Do Joon takes care of the grandmother, buys SY and merges it with Miracle, thereby completing his goal. He is married to the prosecutor (a judge in the novel).

At the very end, he goes to the place where Hyun Woo was murdered, going full circle, accepting his new life and his success.

So, so much better and impactful.

🤣

Truck-kun hit the audience!

You can't apply logic to this because the ending was written to be "creative"; creative for the sake of being creative, not as a wrap up to the actual story.

Is that supposed to be English?

Yes, that's true, eight years and we got that mess in the end. I watched it with a friend and I remember both of us sort of just sitting in silence staring into space 🤣

Someone asked me recently if I am watching the new GoT show. Ah, the way I laughed.

You obviously do or you wouldn't be answering 😂😂😂

And some male writers do the exact same thing ergo the gender is irrelevant.

It's a question of ego and vanity, regardless of whether they are adapting an original work or not. They want to show off their genius by overcomplicating or doing "unexpected" things when in reality a nice, simple, logical ending would do.

Gender is irrelevant, egos are simply massive in creative types (try painters, even worse in my experience 😭) and it shows in stuff like this. Lose the gender in your post and it's absolutely correct and unlikely to change.

Eh. There is beauty in simplicity. This is unfortunately a lesson that still needs to be learned, especially when egos of writers come into play, it seems impossible. And we suffer.

I didn't tell people to grow up because I don't agree with their interpretation of the show or their feelings, you did.

And you keep insulting people too, even now.

Ah well, if insults is the way to go, should I do that too? Trash likes trash? Like calls to like?

Merry Christmas!

Game of Thrones. I was this angry for it 🤣

I mean you literally wrote "don't hate me". You knew what you were writing was trashing female writers.

No we are not, luckily, so we get to see misogynists like you in plain sight. It's awesome when you ID yourself.

You would not have put gen der there if gender wasn't the point. It's useless to backtrack 🤷

They have the absolute right to give whatever rating they feel is appropriate.

The last episodes annul the whole of the show for me. Everything was for nothing. So yes, I am damn sure I want to give them a "nothing". One extra star goes for the acting or it would have been 1.

We have different opinions about the whole show, not just the ending because the show exists within the context of the ending.

Now go on, keep insulting everyone because they don't agree with you while extolling your superiority.

You should grow up. People don't agree with you, it doesn't make them infantile.

Talk about zero self-awareness.

How is that relevant?

If you didn't want to make it about gender you would not have inserted female there. You could have written some writers but instead you emphasied gender.

Right? Super satisfying!

I guess the screenwriter couldn't handle adapting the original material and wanted to show how they are even better, even more creative? And here we are.
