Rose3 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 (edited) Everyone, I think this might be the best 2016 Kdrama so far for me. Might be, we have to wait for the drama to end. Despite some hiccups, I predicted before the drama start based on the storyline that it will be a major international hit. Don't mind the low domestic ratings. Hope it will pick up. Usually, I binge watch Kdramas once they ended, but made an exception for this one. It is not a good idea, like omg, so much feels in one drama and I have withdrawal after every episode especially starting from the second half of the drama.

violet90 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 i think its ironic... when WS come to Songak he have nobody and there is HS who taking care of him.... and now HS all alone its WS turn to take care of her..... his word 'she someone i can't abandon'.... also i think king actually send WS to go somewhere else maybe to a war to make him forget about HS but seriously WS willing to die for her sending him away won't changed his love at all... 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post yuhotarubi Posted September 27, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted September 27, 2016 Oh my god, let me just take a moment to wipe my tears off the floor, this was such a GREAT episode . First of all I take back whatever I said about yesterday's episode, it was much better than I thought ( thank you subbers ) but THIS ? It's been such a long time since I liked it when a drama just knew how to make me cry, I cannot even describe it. Lady Oh was such a tragic character, she sacrificed her everything for that whatever king, who claims any decision he makes is " for the sake of the country " new flash buddy, a country is more than just land and borders, I just hope we'll be done with him soon enough. Also Wook, I was waiting for the break up ( being a So-Soo shipper and all ) but I didn't think I would think this lowly of him ? I know he has a family to protect and all and he may be forgiven for staying quiet for his sister since..... Whatever, BUT him walking away just like THAT ? Even Baek Ah decided to support Soo, even the crown prince. But right after that, how AWESOME was it that the moment So came and shielded Soo from the rain with his coat, Soo looks at him as if she realizes something, she smiles to herself, then gets back to kneeling properly, accepting So's support, and kneeling while being protected by him, when just a moment ago, she was about to lose all of her power, and her resolve because of that massive betrayal ?? I SIMPLY LOVE IT !! And now let's start the wait for Monday again, one week away p.s: thank you guys for all of your awesome posts, and the live recaps and screen caps as well. 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as the rest of the eps are as good as this ep this drama is bound to do better. http://entertain.naver.com/ranking/read?oid=213&aid=0000911274 Omo!!! Soooo happy.. ^.^ I am satisfied with the International love that Moon Lovers is getting. But somehow I want it to do well domestically, because the actors,actress & staff worked so hard. I want them to have the chance for the awards... I want Lee Joon Gi oppa to win an award.. he is so great! Even his veins can act. Get that love in Korea Moon Lovers.. 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post faeriealice Posted September 27, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted September 27, 2016 I gotta say the cinematography this episode was ON POINT. The rain scene in particular was a major stand out, and was far more powerful than the c-drama's version. It was absolutely stunning and symbolic to watch, and the camera placement of seeing HS straighten up and accept WS's shelter from the rain was simply breathtaking. 41 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilovekorearocks Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 @MadraRua Thanks once again for the roll call. Appreciate the recappers/screencappers/screenshots taken and posted herr. It's 2AM and I've caught up reading from 717 to 751. AND OST #8 on loop. Sad song. Feels like the ending song for MLSHR between HS and WS. Thanks everyone who've shared their thoughts and opinions on tonight's episode. It was awful seeing WW turn his back on HS, if this was RL she could have died from that heartbreaking betrayal. Will be updating my signature later. I'm no longer #TeamWaver. I understand Wook's worries but.. he doesn't deserve HS. Still wish WW happiness and I hope he doesn't end pitifully after all these. He seems like a victim of bad circumstances to me. It is so sad. Mornight Eclipses! 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post larinalove Posted September 27, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted September 27, 2016 Just wanted to give a huge shout out to IU and her amazing performance in this episode, she broke my heart, also the actress playing Lady Oh, LJG and the entire cast and crew. This episode was amazing, I am glad to see people starting to appreciate the drama more for the brilliance it is! 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adnana Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 9 hours ago, ruizaio said: OK. I repent. Maybe it was true that only the first ten episodes were done in a rush and the later half will be good. At any rate... maybe we all need to do a volunteer-calling ritual for someone to step up to request a no-cut edition DVD/Blu-ray... DC fans will discuss again Wednesday night at 10 PM KST. Pray that someone will volunteer! @ruizaio Who said that the first 10 episodes were rushed, while the rest would be better? And in what sense, rushed? Shoddy editing and inappropriate music scoring? And why would the first episodes have been rushed? I mean, even if they were hurrying to submit the drama to international broadcasters, they still would have had to rush and finish all the episodes, right? Personally, my only real issue with this drama has always been the editing (i.e. how they decided which scenes to keep and which to cut, and how they strung those scenes together into the overall narrative). I was reserving judgement about the writing (though the Wang So character had my heart and soul from the first week the drama went on-air) but the last 2 episodes convinced me that the writer (even if allegedly inexperienced) knows what she's doing (possibly excepting the heroine). There are so many smart characters in this drama (Wang So, Yeon Hwa, and Queen Evil in particular)--and what a joy that we aren't just told they're smart (and supposed to believe it) but are actually shown in glorious technicolor. The scheming and counter-scheming in the palace is the real deal, people understand things even if they aren't explicitly spoken, and even individuals that choose not to act (like the King) have well-justified reasons. In the acting department, Lee Jun-ki slays ALL. He so perfectly inhabits Wang So, in all his ferocious complexity, that he completely lights up the screen whenever he's on it. He elevates the acting of his weaker colleagues and has single-handedly raised this drama to obsession-level for me. Now the directing... I tried to get used to the extreme close-ups (I'm definitely not a fan) and it was only during E10 that I finally ran out of patience (during the beach scene, the director kept showing just WS or just HS and I had no idea if they were looking at each other or towards the sea as they were talking to each other; I mean, why the heck couldn't the director have just kept both main characters in the same frame defies understanding). Sigh. Still, having compared with the International version, it does seem that the close-ups are a bit toned down in the Korea version, as is the musical scoring... so I can make my peace with the directing, too. Which brings me full circle back to editing, the major bane of this drama's (and also my of current) existence. I hate that many scenes were cut & strung together so shoddily. Worst of all, so many So-centric scenes have ended up on the cutting room floor, I just know it, and that's just the dumbest thing ever and completely unforgivable. So yeah, count me in for every ritual and prayer ceremony necessary for the eventual creation of a No-cut version of this drama on DVD/Bluray. As long as they put back every scene that existed in the script (and use the voiceovers from the Korea version), I'll be the biggest fan. Maybe this will also mean that in the originally planned, no-cut version of the drama, Hae Soo and 8th Prince were supposed to break up (i.e. when he chooses his family over her) in E10 instead of 11, and E11 would have properly started the long-anticipated So-Soo romance (as IU hinted in her fan meeting, when expressing anticipation for E11 which then became E12). 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akinahana89 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 1 hour ago, LoveSG said: @akinahana89!!! Another IU drama to dissect and love! I watched this drama at first because of her but now I find many other reasons to watch SHR! Nam Joo Hyuk, for one, and Lee Jun Ki for another! But I am interested in Kang Ha Nuel too XDD This drama has too many handsome faces not to attract me! But of course the story also attracted me. I watched the original Chinese version and SHR comes across very well too! Wow! Annyeong @LoveSG! How long has it been since we were last in the same thread? Haha. IU and Lee Joon Gi were equal parts the main reason I started watching and was anticipating this drama. This being an adaptation of Bu Bu Jing Xin was the second reason. Nam Joo Hyuk was the third reason. lol. Kang Ha Neul was someone I only knew from Angel Eyes, but I'm very annoyed with looking at him as Wook right now. LOL. It's great to see you here, by the way! ^^ 20 pages since the last time I checked the thread. Completely expected given there was an awesome and intense episode today, so I'll be slowly making my way through the pages and catching up. Opinion question for fellow Eclipses: We know Yeon Hwa hates the Heo clan in general, even though they are the reason why her family was able to return from exile. Yeon Hwa hated Myung Hee even though she was only gentle and king to everyone. She hated Hae Soo before just because of who she was. She hates Hae Soo even more now because Wang So came to her defense and called her "his." The hatred strengthened now that Wook is willing to give up the fight for the throne to live a quiet, happy life with Hae Soo as his new wife. If Hae Soo HAD to end up with either Wook or So and Yeon Hwa was able to control who Hae Soo ends up with, who do you think Yeon Hwa will "allow" Hae Soo to be with? Would it be Wook, even if it means he'll give up the throne and Hae Soo will be her sister-in-law? Or would it be So, the only man she seems to have a little bit of feelings for? Why? 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post violet90 Posted September 27, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted September 27, 2016 i think people misunderstood how cruel and ruthless WS can be.. WS being raised in a wild and harsh condition always fighting to survive all his life and when WS meet HS she do not make the older WS gone is just HS make WS better in controlling himself... the wolf dog is not die yet its just asleep and if someone messing with WS world a.k.a HS and BaekAh it will come out and this one do not think but act.... so WW and WY being an ally should know one thing.. WS is not an easy target even if he don't have a strong ally.. WS is smart and know what to do.. have a skill in both thinking and fighting.. just because he became a better person because of love it does't mean he will not be the person that first come to Songak... he will just you try to mess with what he love then you will know the consequences of waking up the wolf dog.... 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post churasan Posted September 27, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted September 27, 2016 Wow... A ship sailed today... and WW was left at the dock... I have to say I love how the Kdrama version depicted the "break-up" of HS and the 8th prince. In the original, I felt although it was sad, Ruoxi and 8th Prince's break up was subtle and even a little uneventful for me. However, in the Kdrama version the whole poisoning plot had so many players involved with alot of emotions going on. But in the end... that moment when Soo saw WW turn his back on her... NO WORDS had to be said to realize that was the end of that ship. Definitely well played. Next... I'm wondering how bitter and angry WW's character will get because of this. There's no doubt that WW still loves HS, but he'll have to jealously watch her fall in love with So (and I can't say I'm not looking forward to that actually...) I'm sure that is going to eat away at him. So... I'm wondering what is he going to do next? 1. Do you think he will try to become crown prince to win HS back (or even force her back to him... because obviously she lost trust in him.) 2. Or do you think he will completely give up on Soo and try to become crown prince just to spite So? 3. Or do you even think he will have a hand in arranging YH and So's marriage? - Maybe something like "If I can't have Soo, then no one can?" (This would ruin any chances of Soo becoming WS's first wife.) Would he become that cruel to even forsake Soo's own happiness? I'm just hoping that even though the 2nd male lead's ship is over, his character won't just fizzle out. I am also hoping WW will come back with a vengeance because if not, it would be a waste of KHN's talent. WW and WS scenes are just so intense... probably even more so than when WS and WY face off. It'll be a shame to lose all that. Also... I just love the crown, 13th, and 14th princes' loyalty to Soo. In hard times, you really learn who your real allies are. That was such a touching moment. I know in the original the 13th and 14th were on different sides, but they always came together when it came to Ruoxi. I'm so glad I see that in this version. And finally... there are no new words I can say about WS - this forum has said it all. Obviously HS will be pretty sad and depressed, but I hope we will get some cute (and even adorkable) moments of seeing WS's attempts to cheer her up. 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue003 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 The way how lady Oh embraced HS as her daughter and saved her life was heartbreaking. She finally gives WW gives a piece of her mind and tells him, you didn't save her and this you will regret to the end. They say that you have to listen to wise elders. Like how an earlier member pointed out, WW is sinking even more deeper in his dark side. A major flaw for such people is to blame everyone else except themselves. The sad part is they hardly realize the mistake that they are making are leading them to worser situation. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeon Hwa's intention has surfaced, she wants to rise above the king so it's quite likely that she would use Wang So to gain that power. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
