    They need to record LJG's self healing tape. So he can sooth us with his voice

    I imagine something like this:

     

    This is only a drama.

    There is no need to get hurt

    You are a strong, confident viewer

    You will not get hurt

    Release your anger

    Forgive everyone in the drama

    Forgive yourself

    Everything will be alright

     

    OMG, I start to lose my mind :sweatingbullets:

     

    it's better than any therapist.. please do that LJK :wub:

    do the healing tape :heart:

    Cul-De-Sac: Setting You Free

    “I thought of you every time. I wanted you to feel freedom like that. I want to be with you in peace, with nothing getting in our way. If that can’t happen being king or whatever else has no meaning to me.“ 

    Eun’s death made WS finally accept the thing he’s known for a long time - he is helpless to protect the people he loves; if he saves them from a sword there will always be an arrow coming from the other way. He’s reached an impasse and THERE IS ALWAYS ONLY ONE WAY OF THE CUL-DE-SAC. So’s always wished for HS freedom and happiness and live with her till their hair turned grey, yet HIS LOVE IS THE VERY REASON SHE IS IN A DANGER,a danger he doesn’t have the power to save her from. So the pragmatist he is, So does the logical thing and takes himself out of the equation, giving up his chance to be with her - once again, he PRIORITIZES - HER LIFE AND HAPPINESS ABOVE HIS OWN SELFISH DESIRES. Unlike Jung and Wook who treat her like an object and would make her live in a golden cage, HE IS THE ONLY ONE OF THE BROTHERS WHO KNOWS HE CAN’T HAVE EVERYTHING AND THE ONLY ONE WHO LOVES HER ENOUGH TO LET HER GO, even though it breaks him even more than Eun’s death ever could. So said it himself didn’t he - how could he possibly live without seeing her - and the answer is that he won’t be living, but only existing. The king’s position truly couldn’t give him his heart’s desires - he gained Soo’s love on his own and neither it can give him the freedom to be with her, BUT IT CAN GIVE HIM THE POWER TO PROTECT HER AND SET HER FREE. It’s the part of his promise he can still keep. 

     

    “I protected what I wanted. Now, I need to pay for it.” 

    What guts you the most is that you know THAT THE FIRST THING WS WOULD DO AFTER BEING CROWNED WOULD BE TO FREE HS FROM THE PALACE,DAMNING HIMSELF TO A LIFETIME WITHOUT HER. His eternal loneliness is the ultimate price he is willing to pay in exchange for her freedom and safety because he LOVES HER SO MUCH HE CAN’T BE SELFISH WITH HER and it doesn’t come as a suprise because even years ago he was capable of such sacrifice when he offered her marriage and subsequent divorce just to save her from slavery. The knowledge that she would be free and safe is enough for him because he would never ask of her to wait when he can’t marry her, when he can’t give her everything - he loves her too much to ask that of her.

     

    “Now I must look like a monster in your eyes, too. I did kill Eun.”

    It’s the ultimate, heartwrenching irony of fate is that Wang So sarcastically and self-depricatingly tells HS that now she must think of him a monster IN THE VERY PLACE WHERE SHE PREVIOUSLY TOLD HIM HE WOULD RUIN EVERYTHING AND THAT SHE WAS AFRAID OF HIM. And finally, the fact thatHE IS IS BREAKING UP WITH HER IN THE VERY PLACE WHERE SHE HERSELF TOLD HIM TO LET HER GO, TO LEAVE AND GO FAR AWAY AND NEVER RETURN. In the end, SHE GETS HER WISH AND PUNISHMENT - she feels the same desperation So felt when she was pushing him away, it’s HER NOW WHO IS AFRAID SHE IS ABOUT TO LOSE HIM FOREVER.

     

     

    As always your analysis is amazing... love it:heart:

    Sigh. This is why I don't like talking about ratings. I hate it passionately. It just divides fandom and everybody scrounges around for morsels and scrapes the bottom of the barrel to provide reasons why XYZ show is/isn't popular. I went through all of this with Beautiful Mind, which incidentally had even lower ratings than ML. But I thought it was brilliant. I thought Hyukkie was brilliant. As brilliant or even more brilliant than LJG. However, most of SK didn't. At least those who were watching something in that timeslot. I read all kinds of reasons why the locals didn't take to it but none of it made sense to me. I moved on. I've resigned myself to the fact that I generally like shows that most SK don't. Everything that people quote as "negatives" about BM and ML are the very things I love about them.

    At the end of the day nobody... none of us know why ML isn't popular or as popular as the other show. Anecdotal information ain't going to cut it. But guess what, ML is hugely popular with overseas fans. In every site that I visit, legal or illegal... it is the most watched show or at least the most commented on one among those currently airing. I've never seen anything like it in the 6 years that I've been watching K dramas consistently. A show with lowish ratings in SK fuelling so much discussion and getting so much love. With all its "flaws", it is definitely doing something right. Enough to have that kind of a  pull and such a devoted fanbase. And just because the ratings are low doesn't mean Koreans don't like it because there's so much fan art out there. ML is something of a world-wide phenomenon by any stretch of the imagination.

    I know ratings are important to the cast, crew, PD etc for important financial and even artistic reasons.  For some fans it's a vindication of their viewing habits but it shouldn't be. People should enjoy the shows they watch for their own sake even if no one else likes them.

    I'm probably sounding like a cranky ajumma right now and I wasn't going to say anything at first but it seemed like the issue isn't going to go away anytime soon. In fact, I'm concerned it will get worse.

     

    agree with you @40somethingahjumma i do watch beautiful mind instead of doctors and the rating of BM is below compare to doctors, for me it doesn't make any sense.. same like what happen with MLSHR

    but then again... people should enjoy the show  they watch for their own sake even if no one likes them :wub: 

    people want to watch their preferences (can be different aspect, the actor/actress, the genre, story line you can list it)... and MLSHR is our preferences because of its amazing actor/actress, the story line, the costume, the genre, the LJK :wub: 

    for me, everything about MLSHR is perfect. And many of fans are so creative in analyzing the storyline, make creative stuff (drawing, video, fanfic, etc).. make other to sneak up the history of goryeo, the technical thing about the angle shoot, at least this is what happen in this forum... so many love for LJK and the cast of MLSHR. 

    they work hard are paid off by the love and support from their fans :heart:

    i've seen all his drama during the past 2/3 weeks (my addiction of KDrama is back :P ... i think my addiction to KDrama is about 10 years ago). thanks to LJK and MLSHR.

    I also watch drama Faith because LJK suppose to be the main role in that drama, but due to his military enlistment, it goes to Lee Min Ho... LMH is not bad.. but i was wondering if it was LJK... he is so much expression *daydreaming :wub::wub:

    i watched some of LJK video, his fanmeeting, his dance video, see his instagram (like other fangirls do :wub:)  

    one of the video is his charity action in indonesia, he is so adorable, lovable... easy going... have a sense of humour

    Lovebirds

    It’s such a pity that their mountain meal didn’t make it into the final cut, because it suddenly gives this brief, adorable moment a new complexity and dimension. Once again, Hae Soo comes to the lonely wolf who is hiding from the world, hurt by his own family; once again she doesn’t leave him alone even when he is telling her to go back; once again she brings him sustanance; once again they eat together. However, this is where the similarities end, the rest tells about the long journey they have behind them and even though they might have been physically separated their hearts has walked it together. 

     

    There is no awkwardness or shyness this time, they are completely natural, as if this was the most normal thing, as if they weren’t star-crossed. This time, HS doesn’t barely hand So the food, but FEEDS HIM HERSELF when she notices he has difficulty to use the chopsticks with his left hand (since his right hand is injured). You have to wonder whether Wang So isn’t simply pretending (and he is TOTALLY pretending because he CAN FIGHT WITH BOTH HANDS) BECAUSE HE ACTUALLY WANTS SOO TO FEED HIM since the scene obviously continues with him feeding Soo, as well (a part which was deleted once again). 

     

    The whole scene gives such a feeling of perfect marital bliss that you almost expect that a “JUST MARRIED” sign must be hanging somewhere on the wall. The fact that they FEED EACH OTHER IS SO APTLY SYMBOLIC AND IT UNDERSCORES THE HONEYMOON MOOD EVEN MORE because it’s a direct parallel to the previous night and the shadow play - besides the wolves, they did multiple shadows of bird mates and MOST BIRD MATES ACTUALLY FEED EACH OTHER WHEN THEY AREBREEDING(hint: a baby) MATING.

     

     

    I think we should invite him (LJK) in this forum :wub:

    so he will know how awesome his fans are... doing analysis, fan art, fan fic, video, etc

    how emotional we are waiting for episode air, BTS

    some of us might curious about korean history (that's me) and read article related with goryeo dynasty
