Thanks for summarizing it so well. Do you want to create a discussion thread on this so it will not be lost in…
I did it already. Nyahaha! π I hesitated because I was feeling a bit bashful. But you right, it might be useful for new viewers. I can refer to it, too. π
How can you use the title of the novel to justify a sad ending when in the novel there is a very complete happy…
It's the scriptwriters problem because they literally had a source novel already with the rational conflicts in place but decided to go cliche in the 2nd half of the drama. That porridge poisoning never happened in the novel which really undermined YXW/LSS and created a ridiculous conflict. To what purpose was it added, to make a full circle of Bitchang killing herself with porridge in jail compared to how she was serving porridge to the underprivileged in her early scene? LOL!
I do approve of the changes they made with drama TTJ. It made him a richer character. What is lacking is the reinforcement of LSS' POV to show her motivations and qualms. Since the writers were hell bent on changing the story, I would have loved it if they did show LSS showing more remorse and faith in him later on. But alas, that is not to be.
I have written that this drama has editing flaws. The 40 episode limit really affected the quality. While I personally love it, I do see its flaws so I do not consider it a masterpiece and that is still perfectly fine with me.
At the end of day, we like what we like, we dislike what we dislike. You do you and I'll do me. βοΈ

The actors themselves pointed out the title when asked about the BE. Of course, I want to see the HE. I posted the HE chapters in the discussion here and they gave me (and others) so much joy. But the fact is the drama is over and we have no say on its ending. The drama team decided to do a BE for the drama because that is the main story and not include the HE from the novel. From the interviews, it seems they felt it was the right direction to go whether the audience likes it or not.
As for the drama TTJ , he was made more ideal and sympathetic (almost puppy dog like in his love for YXW/LSS ) and the writers fell into the "dumb down" FL route. This is not in line with the initial characterization of LSS. Blame them.
