This is a fandom rant. If you dont know what fandom is why I may need to rant. Ignore the crazy lady..I will post something kinda resembling a life update later. ( Ignore the crazy lady behind the curtain )
One thing I want to ask first. Isn't Eun-soo's selfishness in asking CY to watch her die an example of her imperfection?
I was more invested when I thought CY and ES would be adults about this romance, where they could be able to love each other and walk away and have it mean something.Ah, onichick. I have post lined up for publication tonight that talks about this. I had the same dear wish as you, that CY and ES would be made better people by their love and live on without each other well. I felt the same disappointment when ES implied it wouldn't be like that

I guess for me to a certain degree it just felt out of step with the character. But I dont, I also could have been just projecting too.
I could never really hate this drama, at its core despite all its flaws and directing issues it hits all the right spots for me, and it has a cast that obviously loves to work with each other which always greatly endears me to show,
I will get over my frustration. Im just still in that anger phase a little bit. I will move on to grieving and bargaining soon enough.
I was prepared to have this drama be in my top 3 for the year, and with some of theses missteps its fallen down to maybe top 6 depending on what they do with the end.
Just give me Choi Young with a baby or kids and Im sure I will forget all about anything that might have ever been wrong with this show.
I just feel bad because I dont want people to think I hate the show, I just get more frustrated at wasted potential than something that is just really bad. Its like the more you care about them the more you yell?
ES THATS GREAT THAT THATS HOW IT WILL EFFECT YOU BUT WHAT ABOUT HIM I can see why you are upset, but human beings are created by nature to be selfish. Even sacrofices are driven by selfish desires, ultimately. And I beg to differ - she has been doing a lot of things for him, does not she deserves to think about herself for once. What kind of relationship would that be, if she can not be vulnarable with him? She had to point it out because he was selfish himself, thinking only about her physical safety... Those two are between a rock and a hard place. But you are putting out a lot of great ideas to ponder. People say things they do not mean sometimes, or mean for that moment or just to comfort each other or.. for millions of other reasons. All and all, whether they are together or not at the end, they have already made each other stronger and better. They can say what the want now, but the characters we see will survive without each other if they have to.
Wow. Didnt really expect anyone cept Joonni to read this lol.
Than k you for taking the time to comment. This post was cathartic for me. It allowed to get out my icky feeling about things so I could just enjoy what was happening in the show.
I have a issue with Kdramas with the power dynamics between Men and Women at times. I know there is a lot cultural context to it but I tend to have a knee jerk first reaction which I usually talk myself down from.
I also tend to over analyze and get to caught up in a moment that sometimes its hard for me to see the big picture.
