Painter of the Wind Anxiety
Hah! I've managed to finish watching all 18 episodes of Painter of the Wind online. My goodness, talk about marathon! The series was soo addicting. I started watching Friday and finished Monday afternoon. I went out Saturday so I didn't have much time. And the fact that my internet connection was rather slow didn't help at all. So it took me forever to finish. It was a good thing that Monday was a holiday. So happy!
At first, I was a little apprehensive watching PSY and MGY together. I love them both, I mean in their respective works. I've known about POTW for a while. Some friends have suggested that I watch it. I know that it is a good series. I mean, MGY and PSY are the leads. What can we expect, right? But as I've said, I was a little apprehensive to see them together with the possibility of a love angle. Hmm, I don't know, I thought that there would be a problem about chemistry and all that. That seeing PSY and MGY would be disconcerting. Oh no, It's not about the big age gap between the two leads. I've completely transcended the age difference issue. Lol.
The rather "odd" pair of PSY and MGY
The HOT King (Bae Soon Bin) and the Evil Queen Grandmother (Lim Ji Eun)
So, I started to watch it. And boy, I was enthralled! The storyline is seamless although it's kinda predictable. But I love how flashbacks were used effectively and the use of brush strokes scenes, awesome! The music is also splendid! Being the auditory person that I am, I'm very particular with the music being used and I'm really impressed. So impressed that I've downloaded the OST already. Haha! Of course, my worries about the PSY-MGY chemistry were completely unfounded. The team-up was cute but at the same time, it gave me an aching feeling. I don't know; maybe I can relate? Now, I'm turning mushy. Hah!
Anyhow, I'm waiting for the last two episodes to be aired Wednesday and Thursday this week. Honestly, I'm really anxious on how this series is going to end. I just wish that for a series that had good pacing and storyline; it won't turn out to be disappointment. I'd die if it'll end with a character dying; or having a conclusion with a sad note.
Oh well, maybe it's just me....
