yes i agree! i love a good fairytale happy ending, but that can quickly become cliché. this ending is just so much more realistic and impactful and yes very memorable :') i will never forget this ending

as soon as i am done with these silly exams, i am rewatching as a treat

i think the ending is whatever you think it is or whatever you want it to be, at least that's how i took it :) like you can sort of choose how you want it all to end haha

pls same i love them too, makes the drama so much more profound and unforgettable :')

i love that so much, honestly sounds like a dream :') i wish the comment section would remain alive for a long time

broker got selected as a competitor for cannes!! so happy for them :) <3 i truly cannot wait for this film, the cast is amazing ofc and koreeda's films are genuinely always so meaningul and deserving

every single day i regret not watching this drama while it was airing haha, i can only imagine how wonderful it must have been to discuss it all here back then!!

just found out about the baeksang nominations and i am beyond proud of red sleeve for getting so many, they deserve the whole world!!!! hoping for a cast and crew reunion :) <3

honestly one of the best openings, i love it :D <3

ahh thank you SO much for telling me, i didn't know!! i thought it's just a limited series, so this is exciting :) good to know, thank youu

i hoped they'd follow the novel more precisely but alas. i haven't seen ep5 yet but i'm starting to think 8 episodes is not enough to cover everything that the book touches upon (especially noa's story as that one is so pivotal). i'm curious to see how they plan to wrap it up! still, it is such a good and imporant story to tell and the show is handling it well so far i think :)

right i feel you!! like what about my mental health

AHH you finished it!! i hope you enjoyed and loved and adored it, despite all the heartache that it brought :( <3 the drama should truly come with free therapy or something, i haven't recovered nor do i think i ever will. it's just so beautifully tragic i feel like crying everytime i think about it

i love kingdom a lot and if that detail is somewhat meant in reference to red sleeve i'll love them even more! it's even filmed in the same locations (though that's a bit pointless to mention since most historical stuff is filmed there haha). their mvs are always so beautiful, this one being no exception, i admire them a lot for preserving their culture and history in such an artistic way :) <3 but how lovely would it be if that was a red sleeve reference tho!

lmaoo SAME i had to go and double check if they truly listed them as colleagues haha the relief i felt when i found out it's just her friends!! also i hope you'll loooove this drama, everything about it is so incredibly beautiful, so i hope you'll enjoy it to the fullest :) <3

pls how horrible would it be if the other concubines were described as "deokim's colleague" i'm dying lmaooo, but fortunately deokim's colleague means other court ladies, her friends :) also like the other commenter described, there are other concubines, but their stories are told before deokim becomes one. so as far as i remember, after deokim accepts the position, no other concubines are mentioned i think, so it's only a guess if there were others

lately i've been thinking about the promise that the court ladies made together, how they will all meet again even after they leave. kyung hee clinging onto the promise after all of them passed away and she was the only one left behind, it's haunting me. and it's almost harrowing and it hurts for me to think about this, but i truly truly hope that in the afterlife, or wherever we go after death, they all met again, deokim included :(

i will never move on i'm sure :(

sorry i am replying so late, but i totally get you! being so obsessed or fixated on something is not healthy at all and i hate when that happens (with red sleeve i am strangely okay with it. even glad of it). i wish i could somehow help you, but i'm sure that with time you will be able to move on. or maybe try rewatching another favourite story of yours :)

same same, the entire soundtrack has been on repeat and the instrumentals especially, they are SO beautifully composed <3 currently considering buying the ost album haha the obsession is evident
