Don't be afraid of the end, but learn to see its beauty.

It’s my first time doing this because I don’t speak English very well. But this time, I will make an exception.
I hesitated for a long time to start Make Our Days Count because I know that’s a sad ending and, like all of us, I dislike it. But in the end, I can’t regret my choice to have tried anyway.
The first 18 episodes are made in a fairly light tone. The story of Yu Xi Gu was, indeed, complicated. But not desperate. His vulnerability made him endearing and I like it. For Xiang Hao Ting, I like this kind of character, a free spirit. However, the story was still fairly classic.
For me, it's really the last two episodes that make the series really beautiful and that allow it to rise to such a good position. I didn't like Yu Xi Gu's disappearance, but it allowed the series to address an aspect of romantic relationships that I found very important and on top of that, it did it well. We are rarely told how we recover from such a loss. But here, Xiang Hao Ting gives us a great life’s lesson.
It is the story of a man who will have to recover from one of the most painful losses life will allow him to experience. It is the story of a young person who does not know how to deal with his suffering, who no longer knows how to live but who survives. This is the story of a person's resilience, of their acceptance in the face of harsh and cruel reality.
I cried so much watching the last two episodes. I could only share Xiang Hai Ting's pain, but not only. The most beautiful scene in this series is definitely the one at the end, where he finally agrees to let Yu Xi Gu go, where he finally manages to let him live in his heart. That same scene where he finally agrees to try to live again for himself, and no longer for a ghost.
It was all of this that made this story so beautiful to me, because life is rarely fair or easy. It brings us to our knees, hurts us and damages us. And I find it wonderful to be able to get up and keep my head up high despite everything.
Don't be afraid of the end, but learn to see its beauty.

Ps : sorry for my poor level in english x)
