God is good to us, thank the LORD. i almost panic. i didn't see that coming. i suspected some of them liked, but not overwhelming. oh dear, now i felt so unworthy.

JongSuk-ssi, did you see that? another happy news before you go further study (or the MS thing).

Spoiler

you know the 50% judges are the game-changers. just like those X Factors, where Simon Phillip Cowell and his 3 others, holds a certain decisions-making power. @ibru do represent us to thanks the Judges. but on the other hand, i am worried about the DotS, they wanted so badly for their SongSong which has turned real. we must really thanks them, and yet sound more reserved, so that other groups will not feel the hurt more. be discreet, as we discussed this matter, and sensitive to the feelings of any parties. all in all, kindly do not comments in insensitive ways.

May the Lord bless us for the next Round, its the “Final Episode” just like the chyron appeared infront of Chul, Jeonjoo and Dad, so surreal. may the LORD bless w-team to be humbled and do our best before the final chyron appears "The End.”

thank the LORD God for the appreciations of the Judges, for 8 of them who has voted for all the 3 dramas, @Berou, @MadraRua and whosoever, pls convey our gratitude to all 8 of you, including those who are not within this 8, but have contributed in the poll-counting, whatever....etc. 

see MadraRua's post at spoiler:

"There were eight judges. I was one of them. I can't speak for the rest but I will tell you about my vote.

I had to be unbiased and ended up voting for W. It was the most cohesive piece in my opinion. They had excellent technical description of the camera work in the directors question and overall were the best at meeting the brief. 

You all did a brilliant job and showed great teamwork to produce your answers. It wasn't easy to choose between the three. If I had gone with my heart it would have been Moon Lovers but I felt I needed to set biases aside and honestly evaluate each piece."
(explained by Mod-MadraRua)

I like the concept of the villain in this story. During the broadcast of the first few episodes, a member said that there seemed to be no actual villain in W, an observation which I countered because, if we follow the rules of narrative fiction, a villain must exist so that the story can move forward, whichever universe it is set in. In the case of the action graphic novel genre, the villain is the antithesis of the hero, someone who is the exact opposite of what the main lead is or aspires to become. The genius thing behind the characterization of the W villain is that the W2 story itself is aware of the very rules of its genre. Since the manhwa artist is really bad at character development, the W2 story rewrites and publishes itself as a way of form-correction, thereby giving power not only to the hero to redeem himself but also to the villain to achieve the essence of his existence. The villain is doing a one-man rebellion for being relegated as a mere instrument rather than a full-fledged antagonist. In other words, he is having an existential crisis lels 

I'm voting as a staff member. Yes, responsibility first before my eucalyptus tree Taehwanie. Congratulations on reaching the finals. At this point you have already proven your awesomeness.

[frozentundra]

Thank you, thank you, everyone who voted for W! Much appreciated!

And yes, I can't wait to dissect the villain concept. It's really interesting in W!

mmmm.... thanks for that, you indeed inspired something, spark something that set me thinking last nite. thanks for that 'input"  @jeijei am glad the Finale topic is villain, not OTP, else it will evolved into shipper contest. this is definitely more interesting. (btw, not against shippers, am a jongjoo myself.)

All three round submissions were written well and always an entertaining read.  It's been a pleasure competing with you and your team. Regardless of the outcome, it's been fun!!

@alleram95   Voted yesterday and kept trying to post a comment in the 'conversation' section but somehow it's not working for me after countless times.  Anyway ... will post my comment here. 

What an amazing final round entry W Team! Thank you so much for all of your devotion and hard work on each round of this contest.  I am one of so many that truly appreciate all that you have done.   

 

[LadyTime]

I already voted yesterday and my lil sister voted today.

Please if you dont voted already, do it right now.

All the entries of the rounds W Two World that so beautiful, my heart  was shaked with their beautiful words, giving me so many warm memories of this unforgettable k-drama.

[ibru]

Just wanted to share this IG post @alaska.basin: "Cool poem by Shin Kyung Rim, called Paintings. It reminded me so much of W. Full poem plus translation (not mine) below. "

Paintings
By Shin Kyung Rim

There are times when I long to become part
Of an old-time painting.
There are time when I long to go trudging in,
With my knapsack on,
To enter a tavern,
To push open a back-room door where lasses sit embroidering,
To work the bellows in a blacksmith’s shop;
Just suppose I couldn’t find
The way back out, what then?
Suppose I were trapped
Ina n old-time painting, what then?
There are times when I suddenly realize 
That I’m trapped
Inside a modern-day painting,
And can’t find the way out of it,
Knock and struggle though I may,
I just can’t find
Any door or exit.
There are times when I long to get out
Of this modern-day painting.
There are times when I long to be sitting
In a night express, with my knapsack on,
On my way right out of this world.

[frozentundra]

I'm just so glad we had the chance to compete all the way to the end, and to show people all the things that were so amazing about this drama. It's not every drama that can stand up to being taken apart quite so meticulously. Kudos to the writer, Song Jae Jung, the director, Jung Dae-Yoon, our beloved Lee Jong Suk, Han Hyo Joo, Kim Eui Sung, Lee Si Un, and the many other actors in this show, as well as the camera people, artists, special effects editors, musicians, and heck, even the staff members who carefully adjusted everyone's hair between takes for the sake of continuity. They worked long hours to bring us magic, and for that we are grateful.

I am also grateful to the team that worked together in this contest. I never would have imagined that it would be possible to do a major writing project, in a group, spread across the globe in all different languages and time zones. Yet it was the most enjoyable group project I've ever been involved in. You are all amazing. *group hug*

And finally, thanks to the mods of the contest, @Berou and @MadraRua, for making this more than just a vote-for-your-favorite-oppa contest and instead, making us really think about why these dramas remain with us after a year. Moonlovers, DOTS, and Doctors teams, it was a pleasure to be in a contest with you!

[ibru]

 

W-TEAM! YOU ARE THE BEST TEAM!

THANKS TO ALL FOR YOUR EFFORT!
