MOON LOVERS - SCARLET HEART: RYEO

Hello fellow Lee Jun Ki Fans! It is been awhile since I got back to writing views and info about our dearest Lee Jun Ki. With all the blogs and news popping out on social media nowadays. Especially now that Moon Lovers - Scarlet Heart: Ryeo have recently ended.

Now, most of the fans throughout the world is devastated with the ending offered by the drama. I, for one, am not that happy and yet I still accept the fact that we, as fans, cannot just say to the whole cast and crew of Moon Lovers - Scarlet Heart: Ryeo to change its ending. For two days, I have to look into it why they made it that way. It is an open-ended story after all. 

(An open-ended story is one in which the ending is left uncertain to one degree or another. The reader is not told all the answers and is left to figure them out on his own. Some open-ended stories guide the reader to think one way or another even if the story does not actually specify certain facts, but other stories just leave the reader hanging.https://www.reference.com/education/open-ended-story-a2a050418edae812)

I am very much intrigue as to what our oppa would say about the ending, but I am certain that if you are totally hooked with the drama, and able to understand its concept and depth, you would most likely to accept that the ending is very much appropriate. Whether we like it or not.

WHAT WE WILL MISS ABOUT MOON LOVERS - SCARLET HEART: RYEO?

1. Of course its CAST. I bet not all of us are happy that most of the their characters died throughout the drama. Especially with those people we learned to love. We are not be able to see them for quite sometime, unless we manage to watch the drama again... ( look here, I know it will be a good thing to be able to watch the entire drama but... it will always be torture. You know what I mean.)

2. The beautiful COSTUMES and SCENERY. In my opinion, this was very much an eye-candy for me. Hae Soo's clothes, the 4th Prince's wardrobe, I mean, EVERYONE has very nice clothing. Oh and the scenery, specially this one:

Lovely isn't it? 

3. SOO and SO COUPLE. I know some Moon Lovers - Scarlet Heart: Ryeo fans were shipping on the other princes, but we can't deny the love between these two. CLEARLY, it took too much time before we even see the exchange of love between Hae Soo and Wang So. They had their happy moments together but sadly because of So's Royal responsibility as a King, politics, killings and other factors we already seen on the drama, Hae Soo was consumed by heartache and sadness. Like Baek Ah said before, she spent her life caught between the princes, not able to do thing she really wanted to do. The only thing she could do is to live afar while loving Wang So on her own. I think she already knew that she is pregnant by the time she left the Palace, so it would be a toll on her life and the life on her womb if she ever stayed.

4. (This is actually my choice, I can't ignore the fact that I will greatly miss this) HAE SOO'S CHILD Yep. I will definitely miss her. I am really happy though that the baby lived. Not like on Bubu Jingxin Ruoxi had a miscarriage. It was really a good thing that the child were alive. 

Well that's about it for now. I will greatly miss this drama, Oppa did a great job on his role. Like I have posted before, FINALLY, he became a KING. =) (reference on that is here: http://jgphilippines.blogspot.com/2014/03/roles-past-present-and-future.html)

Hope to see you again next time.

The venue did accommodate several Fan Groups and attendees.

Crowded isn't it? The event hall is not that big but sure is full of fans who love Korean, Japanese, Thai / Lakorn, & Taiwanese dramas. Care to mention that there are several fandoms (or rather ULTIMATE FAN GROUPS) for actors/actresses too!
