Basically, what I am saying is that communication is key (and frankly, some choices like not going to hear her mother's last words make it clear that yes, everyone is responsible for their own actions, but they have consequences ambiguous towards it because I actually can't understand whether she was resentful of her mother or whether she had reason to, with the whole thing with the creepy attacker in her childhood). I particularly liked your idea of life being about everyone driving into the mist. Ultimately , was d writer telling us u can't hv a strong woman wit ambitions hv love and support from her spouse n family but will hv to destroy 1 or d oda. No one forced us to watch it. I guess it was expected that there would be a dark, sad ending. Like Myung-woo himself said, second time is easier. Dysfunction is not a given. mary: To the Misty beanies, thank you for trying this new format with us. TWs micro-acting with his eyes. The ending answered nothing. Your email address will not be published. I didnt really like the ending of Misty but I love it nonetheless. Who can forget the awesome and passionate chemistry of Kim Nam-Joo as Go Hye-Ran and Ji Jin-Hee as Kang Tae-Wook as a middle aged couple. No way could she have survived the public backlash. var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; So it's not entirely implausible. You can't deny that her motivations were questionable though. I blame the incompetent detective for TWs death. And Misty as a show will also stay with me for a while and while I have conflicting feelings about the last few episodes I definitely have FEELINGS so nobody can say that this show was boring. About Hye Ran, not sure what to think. var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; Stop hating and just live your life.. Were all just driving into the mist hopefully with our eyes open, though. Oh, I want to add something. mary: Gah! We can probably pick any satisfactory theory from the past Open Thread comments, but the show made such a big to-do about it, youd think theyd give us a little hint in the finale. I really thought that I was prepared when I saw the ending coming but hell no.haha. Some are bittersweet and some are just like Misty where you are left baffled with what you saw in the end. " A remake of the 2003 Japanese movie, Josee, the Tiger and the Fish, Jose is about a romance transcending physical and social class spaces between Yong Seok (Nam Joo Hyuk), a university senior student and an orphaned, disabled young woman Jose, (Han Ji Min) who is cared for by her grandmother. Or it turned out that Kevin Lee died in a car accident. The finale episode 16 of the popular thriller Korean drama Big Mouth aired yesterday, know the ending explained and if Miho dies in the end here. It would have given Eun joo and the not too bright cop a little closure. And I'm looking forward to Pretty Dongsaeng Who Wants Me to Buy Him Food hehe , @pastmidnite & @growingbeautifully *waves at you both., just because* ^___^. She never asked Myung-woo or Tae-wook to kill for her, they just did so without anyone understanding how unhappy she was. Im not asking to be spoon-fed, but I want to know what I just ate. Yes, there are saints out there, but many of us (if not most), when held at gun point, are naturally self-serving. Required fields are marked *. Hes here to say goodbye to them too, since he wont be able to visit them where hes going. I reeeally enjoyed Manaer Lee yelling at Incompetent Detective Kang ! You didnt make me kill anyone. A good friend of mine just don't watch this episode. That is what I too am saying. I think a rookie reporter would have done a better job. Here TW's case is different, and I would draw a parallel rather to Kevin Lee's wife. We see that he found Tae-wooks discarded shirt and bandages the morning after his fight with Kevin, and Manager Lee threw the evidence away. js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; I hope we will get more of such badass female leads without all the tragedy involved!! An unforgettable melodrama. No one's going to forget this show soon. That was the story I signed up for, not a poorly written whodunnit and dont even get me started on the plotholes, horrendous investigation and legal drama. Even with a few over-dramatic clichs, "The Glory" manages to keep the interest going all through the eight episodes in part one. So, I'm not sure he could have gone on to do that interview regardless of interacting with Detective Kang. They both killed someone who was interacting last with Hye Ran and left her alone at the end. Misty, the brand new K-drama with a suspenseful story of passion and crime, intrigued us as soon as we heard about the top-star billing of Kim Nam Joo and Ji. June 7, 2021. It is an adaptation of Kurumi Inui's novel 'Initiation Love' and tells the story of a young couple and the challenges they face while trying to make their long-distance relationship work. Bring back the old Hye Ran! Also, Reporter Yoon is . Some were clearly questionable regardless of gender (I doubt, for example, putting work over attending your mother's last moments on this heart would be treated "neutrally" regardless of gender). Leaving her to deal with the guilt of Tae Wook 's suicide and Myung Woo's capital punishment isn't something a man who truly loved her would have done. But storywise, it sucks to have all that suffering just to end up with no growth. I wrote more or less of the same thing you said,before reading yours. The series ends as we see Kim returning to her normal life. Release Date: February 2, 2018 - March 24, 2018. Myung Woo is a psycho. That's the show's thesis statement. Tae-wook shows Hye-ran the letter and she wordlessly locks herself up in her room, crying at how messed up everything is. I knew half way that Tae Wook was going to be the murderer and half hoped that they were going to turn that around (hence the big surprise). * When their souls leave their bodies, at that point, there is no return (dominoes clacking}}}}}. Women can be so cruel towards each other. You didnt make me kill anyone. I cannot complain. They had Tae Wook asking Hye Ran in the voiceover So, are you happy? odilettante: 8.4% isnt too shabby, especially for cable, and its now the third highest-rated JTBC drama (just after Strong Woman Do Bong-soon). :(. The point is: I don't know why but most good shows are ruined by an end that disappoints you. His decision stripped her of agenc I envisioned her asking him the question of who killed Kevin lee and I imagined his answer shocking the crowd but both Hye Ran and Tae Wook would share a look and remain confident in their resolve to not only bring the truth to light and spare Myung Woo from death but also to stand by eachother, no matter what. window.fbAsyncInit = function() { It did not feel significant or punchy at all. A suspiciously couple-y moment between Ji-won and Reporter Kwak prompts the team to compare him and Tae-wook as perfect guys, and only Reporter Yoon notices that Hye-ran is just faking the happy facade. His name? Tae Wok was honest, fair and firm in his life and love but. ooppss he had a dark side.. Don't ever do the same." In her private life, Hye Ran was the opposite of what she vowed to uphold in her job. I learned so many life lessons and I'll be remembering many quotes from this drama for a very long time. Much better ending imho. :D So was blackmailing a colleague and capitalizing on her friend being betrayed (though Ji-won should have gotten the brunt of this). Like y'all said, it sounded sarcastic. Would have wanted more flashbacks of Eun Joo with Hyeran and Myung Woo. Published on. It is unfortunate that Misty is one of those dramas which ending negated everything. As all the dirty dealings surrounding Kevins murder would have been exposed. His family contacts did nothing but lead him into a world of corruption. She has done it before plus now she is in love with her husband which gives her more motive. She did not try to pathetically pin it all on her husband, she understood they had different expectations. Kevin Lee was a jerk, but he was one of the man who loved GHR passionately and if the character was played by someone else, I don't think it will have the same effect. mary: I feel so bad for her. How does her aborting the baby even justify any "karmic justice"? Well then I will have more time to quee over the pretty noona during the first 14 episode, with the immortal hope (no matter how many times the drama Godas have failed me before) to have also a good finale. odilettante: But we might have forced a few beanies to watch it, just based on these open threads, so hopefully they dont hold it against us! I watched till episode 7, then i saw dal mi first kiss with that lier in rooftop. That would've worked, too.). And the funny thing is they are mostly criticized by other women, whatever she does. I didn't like that this show about a powerful woman refusing to disappear just because she aged became in the end about how a woman can have success but only if she destroys every man she meets. PS: Sorry about d typos. Tae-Wook ssi, a (half) innocent man took the blame and legal punishment for your crime, and he said, in exchange for that your punishment was to take care and protect Hye Ran for the rest of your life, and you still bailed?? This is different from MW killing someone, it's a perfectly reasonable confrontation that ended tragically due to a freak accident. There was obsession and lust, but no love. Didn't you know? Granted, not about killing him, but if she lies about one thing, it makes everything she says suspicious. All the poor dude wanted to hear from his wife was "Well done! Tae Wook I shouldnt have trusted you the moment you microwaved that steak. If it have ended with the couple holding hands on a vacation beach I would have been very angry. If the point is "this is not binay, you can have both" and wishing there was *also* (the FL had this as her dramatic flaw) a well adjusted female character with both a great career and happy interpersonal relationships in this drama, I would be onboard. I'm okay with a tragic end, I've been through quite a lot of tragic endings and stories during my movies- & dramas viewing years, but at least give me a glorious one, give me an epically tragic one. Myung-woo is right. It was only very recent that she realized she has real feelings for Tae Wook. So youre saying his death will cover everything up, close another dark chapter in Hye-rans life and let her live a perfect-looking life at the top. We all made our own choices. He dies in a pool of blood, repeating how much he likes Kim-Som. In The Glory, the protagonist is Moon Dong-Eun, a girl who was heavily bullied when she was a teenager between 2004 and 2006. Look at the trail of destruction you have left behind in your pursuit. He never blamed her and no one should blame another person for their choices in life. Tae Wook's last question: 'Are you happy now? How did Kang Yool know, or did they randomly guess it? version : 'v2.2' // use version 2.2 xfbml : true, // parse social plugins on this page That's true.She was gonna reveal him on the show at that time that's why he was supposed to be a guest. The court scenes were just too painful to watch and a total drag. Tae-wook is touched that Hye-ran is considering delaying or covering up the truth for him, but its just a pipe dream for them. Not that I buy this anti-capitalist "ambition is bad", "don't be greedy" spiel, but movies in general (I remember a Tom Hanks flic with him being a high powered lawyer that relieves life and chooses the "correct" option of poverty and love) and Korean ones in particular have pushed this narrative for a long time. Tragedies end tragically. :). They still have to defend themselves if they don't want any children. The series marks Kim Nam-joo's small screen comeback after six years. It didn't do anything. @kafiyah-bello You've summarised it perfectly! If they leave you, you will end up all alone, sad, depressed, hopeless and even suicidal. At the end, it is still satisfying ending for good ending gives viewer something to ponder upon. By the way, is there any blog that capture Hye Ran style? I mean that's such a waste of a strong willed character after all that talk about truth and facts also after what happened with myung-woo in the past and everything they went through ,they just repeat it? "Misty" has established itself as a melodrama to be remembered. Spoilers Ahead Maybe MW, but certainly not in TW's case. No ones going to forget this show soon. Still, congratulations to the team and especially the actors who did a stellar job. "As the title 'Misty' suggests, the drama looks into the truth of life shrouded in uncertainty. One day, her life is turned upside down when she gets mixed up in a murder case with her ex lover and his wife. He was planning to turn himself in after the vacation with Hye-ran. Or those dramas laid those things realistic and made our minds prepared and sorta expecting such an ending/outcome. She was a very flawed character but I loved her regardless of that. I was waiting for this thread, not even to be spoiled, since I avoid reading it and go directly to the comments' section. From the star cast filled with immense talent to an intriguing story, My Mister has everything. GHRs expert reporting skills should have been used for a greater purpose. It is like that after all. }; I am very much looking forward to what kind of lies Anna will use to convince Hyun-joo and explain the money and accessories that were stolen at that time. How this man could work 30 years as a detective is really beyond me. But it made me with we also had a well adjusted career woman with a happy family life, because it is possible, ti happens in reality (even in the kdrama her husband was supportive of her career, what they needed was communication and truth), and it would have shown that this is not a binary choice between family and success: you can aim high and be happy. Which drama next? And who was Kevin planning to meet that night? Apparently I dropped Misty before this horrific incident. My interpretation was that the title of the drama was misty, because you can see Hye Ran, getting super misty eyes at the end of the show. Yes, I agree. mary: Yes, someone even described it as Hye-ran being like the embodiment of Spring. But mostly he vowed to support Hye-ran, which is why he accepted his punishment (as described by Myung-woo): to protect Hye-ran until the bitter end. Everything you've said!!!!! No, it is not wrong to "want it all", and I would have liked to have a well adjusted female character with a nice career and a nice family showing that it's not a binary choice. This is a pre-produced drama. After a while, i did realise that the whole point of the ending was how much we DIDNT know Tae-Wook and his motivations. It made it seem like Kevin could still be alive now if that night hadnt happened, as though it was the butterfly moment that led to this hurricane. This. I would also object to the "obsession" label. odilettante: Even though Ive never been a fan of Eun-joo, I couldnt help but feel that she got the short end of the stick. Tae-wook chose to end things this way. Meanwhile, Myung-woo meets Eun-joo to talk her out of her misguided hate. What didn't get answered? :(. Despite knowing Tae-wook was the murderer, I was worried that the reveal it would be sloppy and it wasnt so for that, I applaud them. Hope to see more of her soon. Yong Yee. Hye-ran rejects this theory and storms out. It was fitting that Tae-wook was the killer (NOT murderer - that was obviously a manslaughter, not murder) and that Myung-woo took the fall. xfbml : true, // parse social plugins on this page Please click the link in that email to complete the email change process. He could have chosen her by staying alive but he choose himself again and she has to live with it. You cannot go out hating others spitefully without any repercussions to yourself. That's the slowest rushed ending in history. This isn't quite as bad as the ending of Black which negated the entire drama, but it's still really bad. Also, FL did some questionable things but always for a rational reason, it was not a matter of casually hurting people on a whim like for Ji-won. It's in the scene where she tells him that she loves him (finally) but she wants to break up with him because she doesn't like the pain that comes with love.
