Let's be honest, for a finale, it was kind of weak!

Overall, a good episode but I guess I was expecting a little more. There was a lot of flashback scenes to previous episodes, I was happy to see the young Sun Woo and Jang Il actor's again. The funny thing was every scene between Sun Woo and Jang Il, I was expecting Jang Il to bash Sun Woo over the head again! Every time, Jang Il was behind Sun Woo, I was nervous as heck :-D! When they had the scenes where Jang Il was hospitalized in a mental hospital, all I kept thinking of is "He's faking! Temporary insanity defense!" Boy, I had serious mistrust issues with his character! Everything was resolved but the one nagging question at the end was what happened to Jang Il? You heard mentioned as if he was still alive after the cliff scene but they did not show what had happened so we are clueless. Sun Woo's blindness that kept coming and going just miraculously healed itself. Had a problem with that. I had a problem with him taking off without Ji Won but it was nice that she went after her man at the end. And guess what! The first tears we ever got to see her shed! I was convinced she was a robot! But all and all, this was worth watching from beginning to end. Repeat factor-90% (there are some episodes I would skip). Much props to Uhm Tae Woong and Lee Joon Hyun for stellar performances. And last but not least, why did the ending Sun Woo look younger than all of the previous episodes? Was there a change in stylist!?

90/10

I seriously thought that I wouldn't cry while watching this drama.

Anyways, it seems that a lot of predictions I've seen came true (the one dying was Bu Yong, etc.) but there was a small difference as she died from eating the dried persimmons and why she was wearing Her Highness' clothes instead.

One thing that I would've liked to know was whether or not Tae Yong woke up. At the ending, it showed him (w/o a necklace, so I just assumed it was Tae Yong instead of Yi Gak coming back from Joseon magically); although it'd be nice to actually see the character awaken.

And because of all that has happened, did it rewrite history? I mean, because the Joseon Tae Mu got beheaded, did it change anything, like present-day Tae Mu didn't punch Tae Yong?



Ooh, and Pyo Taek Su(?) didn't wear a bow-tie in this episode :D it was tie instead!

I didnt like the ending

SPOILERS ALLERT!



Yeah... I hated the ending. BUT if i should rate this episode, I have to give it really high rating. Because it was awesome and interesting. No one would expect, that tha "murder" happened like that. At least I did not expect it :D It was wery smart, yet painful conclusion.

I felt really sorry for Bu Yeong, because she had to suffer so much through her life. Her sister took her beloved men and in the end she died for him just like this. I cryied so much when she was standing on that bridge... I was thinking, that Lee Gak could end up with her eventually, when he would come back to his time. That way, he would not be so sad after loosing Pak Ha. But this was just sooo sad. I felt sorry for both o them... for Lee Gak and for Bu Young. It was way too depressing.



Anyway.... it was still great episode. And the whole show was exceptional and amazing :)
