[Drama 2016] Moon Lovers ❤ Scarlet Heart Ryeo, 달의 연인-보보경심 려 \^0^/ Soompi Kdrama 2016 Winner

[staygold]

I was finally able to catch ep 16 yesterday!! I was secretly relieved that I had to catch only one episode. 

Baekhyun totally redeemed himself and 'lived' his death scene! That was decently acted out. I like the way they shot a close up their faces. What would you remember when you are about to die?? Of all things he remembered his birthday disaster. I cant get my mind around the fact that WJ hates WS. They didnt really do justice in writing department for his character. If he is such an important character I would have liked to see more of him than the 13th prince's love line.

I liked how they showed WY going mad with his rituals and prayers. The shot where WS enters the chamber and sees WY is cold and gives me chills. He would have known from his spies whats happening in the palace. But to see it for himself would be something else.

The analysis of the arrow rescue scene by fellow soompier was amazing and detailed. Please we need more posts like this. ( I liked that post and now I am in such a state  that I cant remember the name of the person who posted it. I will find it for sure and put it here later.) This is the post. 

MLSHR was made for LJG. There is no other actor I can imagine playing WS better than him. This is undeniably LJG's magnum opus. In a premise (I am strictly limiting myself to kdrama premise.) where actors are supposed to look pretty and presentable loving, fighting, or dying, here is a man ready to show us his soul. Apart from him I can only think of Jang Hyuk (Chuno) who doesn't have any inhibitions when it comes to showing off his raw emotions while acting. LJG outdid himself in Eun - Sun Doek's death scene. 

Four more episodes to go. Hwaiting!!!

Just a random comment before Wang Yo dies lol, I really like his sense of fashion, the rings and earrings and eyeliner actually suit him. Never knew a fashionable and bejeweled guy can still seem manly but he pulls it off!

Hello everyone! I am new to this thread) It's my first time writing here.

I was amazed by the trailer of SHR when it came out, but only now had opportunity to watch the series. And i have to say that I am amazed!! It's a really good production! But Lee Joon Gi.. I have no words.. I watched his every drama amd movie and was hooked up from "My girl" series back in 2006. I love korean dramas and there are a lot of actors that I like BUT.. noone can beat Joon Gi oppa for me))))) He is just amazing/ I watch a lot of korean production and it is only my opinion but I think that now he is one of a few korean actors that not only can act awesomly but hold all the main points of an actors. I can't really find anyone to even compare him with...

And in SHR he is stunningly beautiful... He pulls that look so naturally and so wonderful, and in every role that he plays he is different, that is amazing!!! I SO love him as Wang So... Pure talent, beauty and charisma!!! I hope he understands how fans love him)) Ratings are nothing compared to the emotions and thoughts, inspiration that he brings to us!!!

 

And I have to thank you all for your posts! it's so good to be here!!!

And just imagine if there is a Hae Soo-Wang Yo arc, she will be worrying for eyeliners everyday 

 

 

 

hahahah, if it was hae soo and wang yo, she'd be making eye kohl, liquid liners and gel liners and teaching different techniques like smudging, winged, lower line buffing etc, infact they probably will bond while she gives him the most bomb smokey eye.  oh and like how she taught baek ah to say "okay", she's gonna teach wang yo the beauty guru slang and go "YASSS, SLAYYY, WERKKK" after doing some good looking liner.

I think the reason WS will agree to the marriage is for some crucial information or to allow entering the palace (YH standing at gates of palace). 

In the last episode WW said he was going to meet evil uncle that support WY so maybe WW will try to take the throne or something and YH might be willing to betray her brother amd be Queen with WS rather than the sister of the king. Does this make sense?

 

I think you could be right. WW will get evil uncle's help to reach his destiny. YH may or may not help his brother to reach his destiny but she manages made a deal with WS because of some political issues. Thus, WS may be doesn't have intentions to marry her but he end up marry YH when knowing HS has a relationship with WW and she begs for him not to be killed even WW intends to revolt. WS thought she still has feeling towards WW. To revenge, he marry YH. Under the stress, HS miscarriage  and get sick. She wants to leave the palace. When 14th prince knowing HS 's in difficulty, with decree on his hand, he requests WS to let he marry HS. 14th Prince end up rescue HS from palace, but she is really sick by the time leaving the palace.

Maybe they could do if they are together in a fan meeting.

I still remember....when Meteor Garden was booming around Asia...the F4, Jerry Yan n friends were touring to several countries to promote their drama...and the result was amazing...

MLSH is pre produced...means...when the drama is still airing the casts are having free schedule...why don't they promote through overseas f@n meetings...both sing n dance very well...

(Dreaming time) then...we have not SoSoo couple but.....LJK-LJE  I don't care about boyfriend stuff...when she is under moon lover...she is single!!!

My imagination goes wild when I think about these two I see that LJE calm personality matches hyperactive LJK....

Seems twitter is experiencing a problem right now.

OK, here we go again.

Combined scenes from the domestic version and the international version of episode 16. Of course, Korean fans suspect that there was more to the scene for So and Soo to be holding hands (maybe Ji Mong said something to them?), but we won't know until we get a complete edition for real...  I guess embedding doesn't work.  EDIT: never mind, it's already been taken down for copyright violation. Please help spread the word and take the survey if you haven't done so already! http://goo.gl/ooMfnt

I cant tag right now but hello to fellow new eclipses!

Also here is the One TV Asia version of JG interview

Thanks to JG Family

How similar are you to the character in Scarlet Heart?
".... I also have a need for affection and that's why I need to meet a lot of people. I try to communicate and complete myself with other people. So eventhough, I dont feel as deprived as Wang So, I could identify with the kind of loneliness, despair, and desperation that he experienced since those feelings are familiar to me...."

Is this for real?!?! Waaaa.. he should really come to this thread. Lots of loving and affection for LJK in this forum!! 

[magdale]

50 Shades of Wang So   even when I'm not fan of the other I admit that I would see this  is very well edited.

What would think, IU and LJG if they watch it?

And about @qwenli 's post on angles in episode 16, wow, I was rewatching episode 14 and notice how the kissu scene was also played with the said detailed angles. The director deserves the credit when it is due

 

while browsing here, i asked my brother to cut the hamburger in half, but when i saw this vid again, i forgot that im hungry, i just let my bro eat the whole burger... hahahaha.... 

LJG nuances really captivates you.... saranghe....

@ruizaio Seems the video is no longer visible.

cr to owner

This could be the early shots, LJK is not as skinny as today. I remember his fighting scene with the monks in ep 3, he looks way skinnier than this. 
Hmm.. why do I feel he looks cuter here with slight - only slight - chubby cheeks. 
Being skinny is good to show his cheekbones and all, but hopefully not too skinny otherwise he will look gaunt.

My thoughts on SoSoo's relationship in episode 16:

Wang So and Hae Soo’s relationship is one of the most realistic relationship in Kdrama. The writer is really great. If you notice in the first half of the drama, it is Wang So that does the chase and waiting but now it is opposite, it is Hae Soo that does the chase/waiting and fall in love deeply with Wang So. 

Following this pattern of their relationship -  Wang So in love with Hae Soo, misunderstanding from Hae Soo then Hae Soo in relationship with Wang So but no trust, they separated due to lack of trust of Hae Soo’s misunderstanding (Wang So will be cruel Gwangjong) now she madly in love with him. So now when they madly in love with each other, their separation will be heartbreaking for the two.  

Also remember during the laundry scene where Hae Soo is drying the blanket, it is Hae Soo who sees Wang So blurred image during the time they are separated when Wang So had to left as ambassador to Shinju…now it is Wang So who sees Hae Soo’s blurred image while he is injured. So lovely!

Did you guys also notice something, when Hae Soo is with Wang So, she falls asleep, the scene where Hae Soo nursed Wang So’s injuries. But in Damiwon, during the two years separation she can’t sleep well. It's make my heart squish when I see this scene. <3

I’m not sure whether this line is in BBJX but Wang So said he never believes in fate. This is also in the 6mins trailer. This is interesting because it may spells that Wang So may be going against fate (against fate does us apart) and if this is what the writer intended then they will be pictured together at different time and period after their tragic separation or it will be an open ended yet satisfying scene. 

One of the dialogue between Jung and Hae Soo after the two years when they are drinking tea, she questions whether she "would get married and take care of someone?", instead, she said "she is going to retire go on a vacation so far away from here", so we know she is going far away and separation is bound to happen.

This is one of my praise for the writer. There is always an underlying purpose on why things happen and are unfolding in this drama. Many of the things being said and happen are with purpose either on foresight or hindsight.
