So soo's doughter?  She's in a good hands. Jung protect her with his life. So would secretly see her from far, because that's what soo wants. She and jung may visit palace whenever they want. It's for her best, for her protection.

BA meet his future wife (wook's doughter), their son is the 7th king of goryeo. Cmiw historically

 

For me,

Its not a sad ending. It's reality...

open thread ... 

 

 

 

 

I agree! It was bittersweet at most. It felt real because even though they can't be together, their love was real and there's even a daughter as a proof of it.  Endings like this make me anxious, but are also the types of endings that stick with me the most... just like 5 centimeters per second as an example.

Because no season 2 (low rating)

 

 

 

But it was SO POPULAR overseas.. seeing how many dramas are made that not even reach a 5% mark and aren't popular overseas either.. making a SHR season two is a much better bet imo ( but it won't happen)

[Evangeline Yang]

Maybe Lee Joon Gi also shocked at that ending and got to run before he got target by his crying fans! SBS is sure on the hit list. Why other dramas can have a creative license that make a good ending but sbs can't!!! I really really hate sbs! They shouldn't do this project if they can't do a good editing.

 

i am definitely not well and I need to check myself into a mental therapy. Who is with me?

Before the finale, I never really put much thought into having a season 2. But with all these questions left unanswered, I DEMAND one or at least a mini-series/movie. And please maybe a different editing team too (no offence).

even if its just a special episode ...i mean WS could have travel to the future with that eclipse ...HS was already long gone..how does she only get to travel now...that should have been instant ...an immediate after reaction...not a thing that waits like 5 years to go back to...was she a ghost waiting for some portal to open or what?? ...and someone else could have entered WS body ...making him the bloody  monarch that he is known for....and we could have confuse WS in 21 century  trying to learn and tied the nots of his past by going to  the museum ...the end...do we really want our television ...our entertainment shows to leave with such bitter note ..the writer went all out and mixed events ...why can't she provide a better ending...the more heartache we experience ....does not equal to a better show and a more epic love story...use your creativity...i guess she was deeply affected by the departure of her mother and decided to go out on a sad note...is like we have 2 different show ...first half and second half...colliding with each other and refusing to mingle with one another...ohh and i forgot to mention how much i love your location...yeah some where in the 21 century...thank god we are here..i can't even handle imaginary goryeo ...much less the middle ages..

do we want a second sea? bbjx second sea was a disaster. 

 

The writers from part 1 wasn't the writers for season 2 so it was a disaster and when they chose to do it half of the casts were busy doing their own activities and so half weren't available to film. So if they are going to do a modern day season 2, I hope since there is no limitation and no history tied in, it will be much better and they can have the freedom of doing many things with many plots. But my plead is make sure at least 95% of the casts in the Goryeo era is free to film the modern day! that is all i wish for

I could only imagine how the viewers in the live screening felt. It's a good thing he left before the screening started.

Wow he did lose a lot of weight..

OK MLSHR Lovers Off To Do Buss See Ya Later

My question, does So knows or suspect who's the father of that little girl?  He did ask how old is she to Jung and Jung didn't answer.  So must have thought Jung is the father. But then again if So knows he is the father he would have taken the child to live in the palace, the one thing that Haesu didn't want.

 

When Jung's about to scram So commands him to stop and leave the kid right there. And that hairpin (i'm sure Jung was planning to sneak little Soo into the palace so that she'll be there to remember her mother's death anniversary) i think that answers your question smh?

Totally cried buckets and blown away on how fast the pace was for episode 20.

The one thing that irks me is this ..... the little girl. 

WS must know she is his kid right? He is too smart not to suspect and later Jung pretty much confirmed it saying HS wouldn't want her to grow up in the palace. 

Did he think the kid was HS and Jung? 

Cos after allowing Jung to come back to the palace etc, he just calmly walked away from both of them. 

You would think he would want to grab and hug a part of HS right? 

I find it totally sad for WS. He was truly alone ..... even Jimong left him. 

 

He knew it's his child. That's why he released him

[sosooyah19]

IM SO STRESSED...

Maybe the last part is a subtle hint that WS did somehow transport to the modern timeline. Since he said that wherever HS is, he will find her. Just before leaving, JiMong had already revealed to him that HS could be someone from the future.. So with this new found realization, the eclipse(door to future) opens up at that moment to facilitate his time travel.. Maybe that eclipse opens up only when everyone has left you(since there is no point staying in Goryeo anymore!)... So knowing this, Ji Mong left first to meet GHJ at the exhibition.. and WS follows soon after! 

The part where WS touched his face and then revealed his scar.. symbolises that he will meet GHJ as the true original WS in the future, not the Gwangjong he became when he ascended the throne.

 

You see THAT IS THE ISSUE OF THIS DRAMA.

I have to come to a forum, get background infor, get commentary to help me understand and get the whole picture. It was the same thing as Woohee's death.

The whole pacing and narration is just not done properly. 

I guess Koreans watched so much of their dramas, they can smell a rat from miles away. To me MLSHR has become cinderella at midnight....all you see is a pumpkin.

Well, I don't know. My guess is they won't do it. Not only because that would be a big bet with high risk but the cast maybe already move on with another project.

[imaginary24]

Already finished watching the last episode of somehow emotionally drained drama of Scarlet Hurt Heart -through ONE HD.  All I can say is the ending was unpredictable cruel to us(viewers)! Or is just me who felt this way?? My poor heart still can't take it! But, what should I do instead of MOVING ON! Hoping us here who is feeling the hurting will find our ways to move on with NORMAL LIFE.

Yup and that is why he released Jung from house arrest. So they can visit the palace.

[lyserose]

That was one hell of a roller coaster ride and after investing myself into this drama, and what I get in the end is just "What The Heck". But first, allow me to list down all my points taken from episode 20:

1. Why in the world did they make Lee Joon Gi wore that hideous headdress?????? What's the relevance of wearing it only for that one particular scene? Why? Why? Why? There was no special event or ceremony so I could not comprehend why they need to make him wearing it.

2. 10 million additional budget from Universal Studio and all they could afford were 2 vases of Peonies for a prince to enjoy with his wife???? I was expecting a garden. 

3. What's the relevance of having Haesoo bearing a child in Goryeo? As a consolation token to Wang So when he has no connection, no impact on the child's life and vice versa?

4. After 20 episodes, I still could not understand the function of Ji Mong. He has contributed to totally nothing in term of the plot movement, character motivation or growth. So, he really does come from the future but what's his purpose of being transported to Goryeo?

5. So, it's Wang So who ended up left with all the suffering. Baek Ah left him, Haesoo died and when she woke up in the future, she totally has no recollection of Wang So and her life in Goryeo while he continued to pine for his dead lover? Ah-Ma-Zing!!!!!

6. What's the purpose of having Baek Ah meeting Wook's daughter? Is there any historical connection or anything?

7. So, in the end, the truly dearest person to Wook is actually Lady Hae, not Haesoo and I am glad that he contemplated with how his life is after giving up his aspiration and ambition, finding his inner peace and figuring out that his love for Haesoo is as hot blazing fiery as it got but not meaningful enough for him to waste his life on.

The only satisfying thing that I derived from this episode is that there is NO REINCARNATION of Wang So. Thank goodness. He finally did what he was supposed to do - fulfilling his destiny as a king and pave his name in history as one of Goryeo's greatest and formidable ruler. Despite the loneliness, I could care to understand that one would eventually lose something to gain something. It just so happened that my heart breaks for Wang So, that all the time, he believed that the love between him and Haesoo is so deep and true yet she came back to the future, only to have forgotten him while he endured the pain until he died. Our hero really never catch a break, from being an abandoned son, an outcasted brother, a misunderstood prince, a misrepresented king and finally, a forlorn lover. My heart goes to you, Wang So.

Above all,  Lee Joon Gi is such a stellar actor that the entire production team should bow to him in gratitude because without him, there is no way this drama could ever reached this level of success. He is truly magnificent and how I wish, that they would just ended the drama with that piercing look of Wang So exposing his scar and that haunting voiceover. It would have left me and perhaps some viewers with deeper satisfaction. That simple little scene was so haunting and that's the real testament of what a brilliant actor LJG is. The rest of my credits shall go to Kang Ha Neul who stood along with LJG, being the other ones to carry the entire drama and nothing short of spectacular from the get go.

Better luck next time Lee Joon Gi and I am hoping to see him in a contemporary drama, with even greater success including domestic success. I will take Wang So anytime, anywhere and be it in the future, there will be no Wang So for me other than Lee Joon Gi.

Wang So is left alone in empty palace of Goryeo era...and Go Ha Jin being reminded by JI Mong reincarnation that is NOT a dream but REAL tragical experience(PS: when HS said she better forget it all)....PD nim u make all of us miserable. u just slash all the character and also the viewer...great job.first of all kind.(im being sarcastic here)
