Happy End, I Want More, Feminism is there!
(Happy Ending)
Tbh, I was shocked when he died in ep 32, thoughI predicted it, but I still cried and then was again happy as he reappeared in the end.
They gave us a cute ending with that special, but I would have loved to see how they pretended he was dead, even making a fake funeral and grave! Like only he and his medic knew? Really? He even hid it from his closest aid.
My theory is that the medic saw his body and took it and still saw chances of life, hid him away and tried to heal him these past 4 years, with even taking measures of experimenting on himself. As, as we saw, the medic's hair was almost fully gray and his face showed signs of aging which came from the experiments and Hua Yong only had a few strands of his hair turned grey. Like- he deserves more praise!
I also would loved to see the second couple's twin children and it would have been cool to see them grow up with the mainleads son.
I also reallly loved the second couple, like I was kinda more invested in their story.
I have never seen a woman cross-dressing as a man so accurately in a drama. Like if not for the voice, I would have believed her! She is on par with Seol In Ah who will act in that upcoming series as a man!
Also, I was soo surprised to finding out the actor of Tian Yuan's (ml's closest aide) real age. Like you are telling me that boy is 15?!! He is a great actor but I feel bad for simping him (though mind you, I am 17, so it should be okay). I usually fawn for elder actors like Lee Sang Yi but this is new. But when I look at his MDL picture, he looks completely for his age. I think due to the heavy make-up in the drama he looks elder, which was probably also intentionally. I thougt he was around 22-24.
Summary, this was really a hella good drama and this is not only my first historical Chinese drama but this is also the first C-drama I watched till the end!!! (besides C-bl)
Bcz usually I never get to finish a C-drama as it's too long and get's boring over time, but in this drama, literally EVERY fricking episode is a dopamine shot into my soul! I loved every ep and I even wish for a second season!
I also loved how women supportive they were! My absolute favourite line from Hua Yong which literally made me watch this entire series:
"Women are poor, they have always been used, .... So I'd rather make use of men *giant smirk* "
10/10 reccommend
