This is a drama that I will not hate even if it ended with a not-so-happy ending. Well, I will hate it a little if they will give me an open ending. Reflection:
My head is screaming "AWKWARDNESS" in the first 5 minutes. It feels so wrong to see them happy. Then when MJ gives Mr. Gu that hurting look saying "Are we a two? Or just one against one"?, ahh.. That feels right. MJ must react that way.. Then it started to warm up to me and ended up crying.
All the confrontation between the siblings in their partner shows how strong they are now. They are still vulnerable but somehow I know that they can make it on their own.
We are on the last episode, and maybe it will not go well. I wanted to have a happy ending so bad but I understand if it will not. CH maybe become single and just continue to find what he wanted, KJ stands up for herself and understands that having a relationship is not the ultimate goal to make her life happy. and for MJ.. hmmm.. who knows?
I hate that recording scene because maybe they will give us that ending scene where MJ listens to Gu's voice because he is not there.. Well, I became paranoid, but I know I will rate it more than 9 no matter what happens.
As I rewatch episode 14, I like that Mi Jung looks great, although it's been years since Mr. Gu left and the tragedy that came to her family, she manages to pull herself together and maybe somehow really made her stronger and be independent. While Mr. Gu as we know looks miserable and sad. She was liberating herself and she just don't realize it.
1. Enjoy the little things that make you happy. 2. Be a good listener. 3. Take that leap of faith. 4. Be more empathetic to others. We didn't know what they are experiencing right now. 5. Share your philosophical thoughts with others. They might need one(esp. the heart beating scene) 6. Be vocal to your loved ones once in a while. 8. Try to patch things up if you know you hurt someone with your outburst. 9. Trust your instincts. 10. Be supportive sibling no matter how crazy it is. 11.Act cute when you are at fault, might forgive you somehow but if not, run for your life...
I am just hoping that it will not be an open ending. I can take a bitter ending or a plain ending, just don't give us an open ending just what they did in Cheese In The Trap.
Writer nim really knows how to play with our emotions. Having lost someone takes time to heal and our family is the closest ally in our suffering and healing. Glad this episode is all about the Yeon family.
And they gave us that last scene. I'm happy but was thinking, is it too fast? Well, I guess if you love someone even if how many years past, it will pour all the emotions when you meet again.
But somehow, I am more scared now of the ending. I don't know, maybe it's too fast that they get their happiness just like that.... jeez.. I'm so paranoid at this point.
Because of the episode last night, I became extra sweet to my parents today, and I'm pretty sure that they are thinking that I need something from them.
not gonna lie, every peak of their moments when they talk of their wisdom, esp. Changhee; I'm bawl in tears because…
Be open to your parents.when I’m at the peak of my stress, I just burst it out how miserable I am.how tired i am. No matter how they wanted their kids to have an achievement , they don’t want to see them miserable. That is why hats off to CH who’s very open to his feelings.
This is my favorite episode so far. Reflection: Episode 13: A perfect portrayal of Mr. Gu's emptiness. Will you choose to love someone even if you feel the pain of missing her/him or do you prefer to live with yourself only? Mr. Gu calling Mi Jung's name pretty much sums up his misery. What a wonderful acting for Son Seok Ku.
And Changhee.. Wow! I can relate to him so much on many levels especially when he said that can he live without ambition or plan for the future.
"You've worked really hard. Take a break". CH trying to find comfort in his parents is what we need sometimes. I am lucky to hear that from my parents, whenever I am at the peak of my stress and tiredness at my work..
Lastly, hats off to their mother. A mother will always be concerned for her children. Her excitement when she met KJ boyfriend and her grief when she learned how miserable MJ is, as well as the years of serving her husband and kids. Cooking, cleaning, helping at work, and almost no time for leisure. But I know, she was really proud of her children no matter what.
Amazing episode indeed.. Will watch this tomorrow again before episode 14 and I think I need to prepare the tissue.
