this may be an unpopular opinion, but can we talk about how this story feels like a bunch of nonsensical plot twists thrown together.
i’ll start with yura because i can’t imagine anyone actually likes her (and no one will argue with me on this)— what is the point of painting yura as envious of eunha, wanting to tear down the walls of eunha’s picture-perfect life, but then when the truth behind the affair unravels sungwoo was the puppet master? that doesn’t make sense? it seems very last minute. like the author just needed a finale, so pointed all fingers at sungwoo to justify eunha ending with taeyang. it’s just strange, yura wanted everyone to turn on eunha, so trying to ruin eunha’s relationship with her husband is completely in line with her character.
now let’s move onto sungwoo. it was established from the beginning that sungwoo only cared for eunha’s happiness, so why would he destroy everything that made her happy? if he truly strived for her love, why would he watch from the sidelines as eunha fell in love with and married another man? sure maybe he noticed taeyang neglecting eunha, so he decided to take initiative and make her happy, but then why would he try to kill her parents? the story claims that he wanted to isolate her so she would only depend on (and therefore fall for) him, but that is not in sungwoo’s character. he was content seeing eunha happy, but once again the author needed to shovel all the blame onto someone so they completely reworked his character. i don’t know, just my two cents.
i’m not saying he deserves it (debatable) but god’s timing is always right
jinshi’s face when mao mao grabs his frog awakened something inside of me
are we surprised tho? once an asshole always an asshole
a tiny part of me was hoping for henry and richard to live happily ever after (in a little cottage shrouded in trees far away from politics where they can happily drink warm soup and take care of their boar whitey), but you can only hope for so much from a tragedy :,(
i feel like mingwa is making jaekyung dig his own grave for this one— i mean it’s chapter 41 and he is still an emotional, explosive asshole. i can’t imagine anyone ever liking him even if his character improves.
