Same, I just finished watching the latest two episodes and my eyes are red from crying. I feel almost dazed and…
I wholeheartedly agree! In the beginning I didn't anticipate it would hurt so much seeing what the side characters go through. They did such a good job at making you care about everyone in CY's life.
Reading the comments makes me feel like I'm losing braincells in real-time.
1. First of all, Jaehee's death should've come as no chocker. The last we saw of her and Gilho was her safe at the hospital and him about to leave. It would have made zero sense for JCW's character to leave at this point in the series, so it was clear there had to be a turning point. I think Jaehee's death served its purpose.
2. Furthermore, there were signs that Jaehee was suicidal.
To begin with, she unfortunately fits the description of someone who is prone to suicide. She comes from a poor background, has no family, and from what we saw no friends in school besides Yeseo. She is part of a very vulnerable group of people. It isn't surprising for her to have had suicidal thoughts before entering the call girl business.
Throughout the series, she never gave the video to anyone else and was willing to die by herself, even avoiding the only one who was on her side. It shows that she already believed she wouldn't be alive at the end of it. She also constantly discarded her own life at first opportunity to save others like Jinyoung and Yeseo, having no care for her own life and thus further supporting my point.
So, for those saying that Jaehee's suicide was bad writing (which doesn't mean much nowadays with how easily that phrase is thrown around...) and came out of nowhere, I really don't see where you're coming from. Feel free to make your own arguments, though.
this drama was never supposed to have a happy ending, and on that point they delivered. do i wish it had been done a little differently? yes. but i did enjoy the fact that they showed clearly that the mcs are never gonna be the same again after this ordeal. you don't go through what junmo did and continue living like nothing happened. the last scene with him by gicheul's grave gave me everything i wanted this drama to give me. definitely worth the watch!
edit: like, i want you all to remember that this story is about junmo. the things he had to do, and the things he had to give up for this mission. he risked, and lost, everything. THAT'S what the ending shows.
i just finished watching season 2 and my heart just broke for han yeo jin so many times... her character def has become one of my favorites. she feels like a real person to me, so much so that i'm worrying and hoping everything will turn out okay for her even though she doesn't exist outside of the screen ðŸ˜
i love the bromance between the two mls and the action scenes and sfx have been amazing so far. bibi also did extremely well in her role, i was shocked!!
