rewatching this after watching the other works of the actors here(kim hye yoon and lee jae wook are so so good in them). lets see if i'll up my rating... currently its 6.5
honestly whether mistranslations or not, i think there was no reason to put a scene like that in the drama in the first place since its a very sensitive topic and it has been a hurtful topic for over 50 years now. people have been trying to raise awareness about it for about 2 decades now especially since these last 2 years. so u cant expect people to not be hurt, because people are actually suffering its not fiction and people who take a break from real life by watching dramas get a whiplash from these scenes, ofcourse they'll be affected. the mistake is including that scene in the 1st place, intepretation, translation all comes 2nd.
A better ending : instead of showing us her flashbacks, they should've just showed those hospital scenes, what actually happened that night. He talks things through with her like a grown adult instead of a corny "ill punish myself because of what my father did when I was a kid, I didn't even have a clue that he was my father btw" scene. Then could've showed his proposal to her, their happy wedding (I'm not satisfied with only pics :( why were we not invited as the biggest supporters???) and then just everything that happened in the 2nd half could've followed :D Should I just become a screenwriter.
it did...it felt out of place let's be for real..first impressions matter the same way the last impressions do...and…
oh i totally understand what you mean. i think they just wanted to 'break' them apart for a while so they just threw the ml into some random warzone place (i didnt even understand wth he was doing there) yeah it was poorly written but it didnt really affect the drama for me. i feel they made up for the blunder in the 2nd half. but okay, you're right everyone are not supposed to feel the same im sorry :)
