Beauty in a total erasure? K-trauma worth exploring. Chaotic review edition.
Profoundly beautiful, but beyond tragic…
Complete erasure sounds even worse than death and would cause even more trauma, regardless of the circumstances or intentions. Permanently erasing someone you love from existence wouldn’t bring peace at all even if it meant to save her ,even if he bet his existence on her...in real life it would likely compound the trauma and survivor’s guilt to an unbearable degree.
I don’t see how the FL could live peacefully with herself, knowing that she caused his death—not once, but TWICE ....and she was supposedly gonna live her life guiltless trying to honour him in some way?- no way ,highly unlikely. It would break her even more!
And there’s no concept of any kind of afterlife for him after cosmic erasure, or even the possibility of them reuniting in some way, unknowingly, to ease her pain, to live with some hope. No thank you. It’s tragic beyond tragic—super bleak. I don’t see how it could help her heal. It’s grief and torture multiplied by a thousand. K-TRAUMA. As I said, the series is worth watching—profoundly beautiful—but the resolution sends me spiralling into depression and leaves me grieving for the characters even more than I did before… and Ram Woo isn’t even my lover! Traumatic. Not sure the writer ever lost the loved one cause... Ram Woo fate was worse than death...I wouldn't want it even for my worst enemy. Is my life worth enough to sacrifice the existence of the another entity/person/grim reaper ...I highly doubt it. For sure, it wouldn't ease my pain and turn my life for the better! He lives in memories/or in some form through them?! Not enough to ease my grief.
The performances by both leads were extraordinary-very raw, very real...too real. Incredible job! The rewatch value high if you like to torture yourself or re-evaluate your life from time to time. I recommend if you want to question your existence or cleanse yourself and your soul through crying. I do not think that this drama is very healing. It sure gives us some perspective, makes us cherish our lives even more and deals with the grief side of losing a loved one and how we can live in some way through them but I personally feel very RAW after watching this. So brace yourself: it’s going to be warmth and heartbreak, culminating in a bittersweet tragedy that’s more bitter than sweet.
