I actually to laugh at this post because knowing your love of angst, I figured this episode might do you in.
His letter...is just beautiful. What kills me the most is when he lists what he lost. He lost everything. Everything! But yet, there was still more to lose. Oh gosh, I'm tearing up again.
Yup, this was the ep that switched me from 'really really good drama' to 'omg obsession top 10 all-time dramas!!!'
Yes, the letter is brutal - and I love how he desperately tries to remain stoic and keep going despite how hurt he is by it all. It also gets me in ep 16, when you see him just decide to give up - look at the guards and just be done. But the tie -eeek. As I mentioned upthread, it's something that was so romantic and special and then it becomes so horrifying. (But then is made good again by the end).
and thank God Ji Hyun Woo did not over act this part. he's still the calm kim boong do that we've met at episode 1. he unload his anguish yes but still, he was not bawling LOL.
maybe i'll have to go back and rewatch it all too.... gonna wait till my mom's ready to watch it with me =P
but yeah... i think a talisman necktie may have been an easier to digest alternative... (i've said what i could about the necktie on DB so i'll stop here haha) I'm really happy though that mookie and many others still lurv this drama! =D
This was the perfect episode. PERFECT. It's my #1 episode of any drama of all time. The angst was so good.
I lost it mid-way in his letter, when he started listing what he has lost and what he will lose, because I didn't think the consequences of dabbling in voodoo would be this huge. Or should I say I might have some inkling that the consequences would be huge, but hearing him say it out loud just means it will come true. And I didn't think the show would dare to go that far.
It was so cruel when he disappeared a second time, in front of Hee Jin. And when he finally went down on his knees you know there's no hope left. *sobs*
