fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs); They had great acting, the director did a great job, the staff and crew as well, the costumes are really great and if the writing wasn’t so bad, maybe they should’ve thought of the fans more when they did the ending. Her reasons're totally excusable. Brava, @lezah, for prescribing Su the personality transplant she so badly needed. oh well this is the one drama i will always keep shaking my head at.. :D And yes, maybe she thought the only way to leave the palace was to blame him for killing Chae-Ryung, so that she could have a reason for leaving. The first scene should have been deleted. And unlike some others, I was greatly relieved that there was no miscarriage in the k-version. Completely disagree with the second ending by @lezah here. My main problem with the series is that there was very little point to it overall. Wang So spied on Hae Soo and Jung himself. In fact, I think save Wang So, I watched Scarlet Heart mostly for the women. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, Her developing relationships with the people at that time, her trying to incorporate her modern values or her utter fear in that world at times,.. There was way too much time dedicated on that story line. He could have tried to spend time with her in her last days in that cottage, and she could have left the world happily. She was so childish and too sweet that irritated the hell out of me like Baek Hyun. Hi Lilsweetie, someone else who loved Scarlet Heart for what it was. and Part 2 can be found in the link below: Part 2 of MOON LOVERS: SCARLET HEART RYEO SPOILERS, FINALE SPECULATIONS AND POSSIBLE HAPPY ENDING (Episode 19, 20), SPECULATIONS AND SPOILERS PART 3 (FINALE). Bu Bu Jing Xin had over 35 episodes to tell a complicated story where she loved another first, and various other side stories. cookie : true, // enable cookies to allow the server to access It got a lot of frustration and love, and a lot of frustrated love lol. Where Ruoxi, the heroine of the Chinese version, was a walking history book and thus was so afraid changing history she hid in the background, Hae-soo knew only basic outlines of Goryeo history (which I like because that is more relatable to me personally), and though she knew the names of the coming kings, she did not remember which brother is which king. His close ones left him one by one. I was willing to play along, putty in the production’s hands… right up until the ending. Was the viewer searching for emotional or romantic payoff? What makes tragedy is that it could have been avoided but it also makes sense that it wasn't, and that the characters try so hard to avoid tragedy but fails. And every time there was another misunderstanding, or another reveal, we were afraid that the line had been crossed. This is the last “spoiler/speculation” blog post for this Korean Drama because we only have 20 episodes. This much is enough to make me happy, unlike the darned original ending that made me pause for 3 seconds before yelling, "What?! d. Wang So’s lying about the last will and abdication of Wang Yo. She still has a comraderie and friendship with So, which is unlike her childish infatuation with Wook. version : 'v2.2' // use version 2.2 That can be easily fixed in post production. I also thought her character was a nice contrast to Kang Hana's character. And I'm not interested in second season, not interested to see IU again. Just a few comments : The latter was easier to answer. Another interesting thing to notice is that this 'new history' draws parallel to the real world historical accounts of 'Gwangjong of Goryeo'. Like you, I wished that they showed more of Hae soo surviving the palace because the story was meant about her.. somebody call an ambulance. Especially when she was stuck in the palace with literally nothing to do but wait for him to visit her. and then I think they reappear at the same market. Personally, I was intruigued by how different Hae-su and Ruoxi are. 2 - So and Soo meets again Tags: Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo, Theme of the Month, Your email address will not be published. I’ve never understood why Jung used his own handwriting to write on the envelopes of Su’s letters, despite knowing how much his brother hated him. By the end Scarlet Heart had frustrated me so much that I almost felt it deserved that ending. I agree that I like the sad ending with no happy pay-off, but at the same time I did not feel like we watched it be "deserved", if that makes sense. I always thought the reason why Soo's character never becomes what most audience members wanted was because her changing would not be true to her character. Then IF there had to be a rebirth,I too needed both of them to have the world that they could "love each other fully without any restrictions" and of course reunite again with the adorable baby Seol-ie. I think my main issue with the show was that the female lead made my blood pressure rise whenever she did anything. And Jang Hyuk played Wang So in Shine or Go Crazy, so he's familiar with that kind of deal.
