Do we have an explanation from the cast or production team/director about the ending? I need to know how to interpret…
Really hate stupid endings where the main leads die for no reason, especially if they are supposed to be the smartest/strongest/most scheming person/people in the story - just makes no sense; that's why I loved the ending of Story of Kunning palace - that guy is the 'smartest person in the room' able to think 20-30 moves and years ahead. One thing is for a smart character to want to die/have terminal disease, etc. but just unexplained...? All these endings with the main leads dying just because, is shit; there is a way to make it make sense but it seems to me some writers/directors are so bent on confusing/surprising the audience, they just throw shit at the wall waiting to see what will stick...
I was thinking about Wan Niang, Xuening's foster mother. Is it Mother Wan or is Niang the name?
She is a concubine so even her biological children can never call her "mother" only the main wife is called "mother". And technically not a foster mother but the concubine was thrown out with supposedly her child and she switched and kidnapped the child of the wife so her child can live a good life as if she had raised her own daughter, after her death the daughter may not have even been accepted back in the family in the capital but directly married off somewhere, etc.
Season 1 was a masterpiece , unfortunately in my opinion season 2 fell short and a bit disappointing . It wasn’t…
There was so much about the soldiers so we would care when they got captured at the end of the season. Depending on when the fiancee was infected, the child would be a monster upon conception. And as the doctor said, a strong stimulus 'activates' the monsterzation so "meeting the father" did it? And no one knows how infection is activated so how can we know - and that is the scariest thing - the unknown - no one knows if they'll be next and when
Noooo, where is season 3!? Great second season - adding many new storylines and expanding the scope of the story! Could have used two more episodes (as the 10 in season 1) to flesh out the new characters and Heun Soo. I called it - the monster slurry from season 1 is the lost fiancee of the firefighter. Satisfied with the the two guys from Green Apartments who turned - the 1st was so scared of turning, that he turned and 2nd was coward always ready to betray people and in the end was betrayed and left to die.
About the song Warriors, I found it funny some times... so yeah. Maybe after the 1st/2nd time, only the instrumental would have worked. It was my least liked song from the soundtrack.
Also, shows that the whole narrative of school bullying is “just a phase”, “kids being kids” or whatever was always total BS. The victims are scarred for life in this case physically too but the burn scars are also a metaphor for the mental trauma as she is bothered by pain from them for years (when they should be healed already) so at least part of that pain is ‘transferred’ from the mental pain. By the end of the drama she is no longer bothered by pain from the scars and also is not ashamed/scared of having them after achieving her revenge and catharsis. And the bullies, continue the same abusive patterns in adulthood - showing “it’s not just a childish phase”.
