Great drama 9/10. Cast was brilliant. There were some plot holes but overall Good story.
For the viewers who hate Ta Hwan and say that Nyang only loved Wang Yu. Would like to give my opinion on the love triangle.
From the start I was interested in Nyang & Ta Hwan’s love story. Nyang & Wang Yu’s love story can be obvious and too easy. Wang Yu is a very strong character and with his personality Nyang falling love with him and that love story is just ordinary.
I think from ep 24 when Nyang said “This is the last tear I will shed for you” is when, she put a side her love for Wang Yoo for good. But even after that every time when she saw Wang Yoo she cried. But I don’t think that’s because she still loves him. It’s just because of thinking the circumstance that led for that. And she maybe feel guilty to taken the path that she taken. She even cried for Tal Tal. That doesn’t mean she love him. So, I think Wang Yu or Tal Tal is more important people in her life, and she didn’t want to lose them.
But Nyang & Ta Hwan’s love story is a special one. It’s about devoted love. A love that change Nyang’s hatred into love. But it took it’s time, I think it started properly in ep 33 when Nyang said “I’m starting to feel afraid”, that’s when she stared to falling in love with Ta Hwan.
Even I favour Nyang with Ta Hwan. Never hated Wang Yu, honestly that character cannot be hated by anyone. Really Wang Yu didn’t have any flaws. His character was over powered. The only flaw or mistake he did from my perspective is that when he broke the trust between Nyang when he sold stuff to Yuan’s enemies. But even that is justifiable, he did it for his county.
I was too, annoyed about Ta Hwan’s character till the ep 21, till he saved Nyang and hide her in the bath tub. While Wang Yu character is over powered, Ta Hwan is written as too weak. I believe that Nyang & Ta Hwan falling in love in first place was stopped by 2 things. 1st because of the character weakness. What will happen if Ta Hwan’s personality was in ep 33, was in start from the drama. They will definitely fall in love, because they spend more time (screen time) together. 2nd is that even if Nyang developed some feelings for Ta Hwan in the beginning, when her father got killed by Ta Hwan’s lies. She stared hate him and planned to take revenge on him.
It’s like they are just fated to end up together, to see how it gonna happen was the interesting part. Love the drama, but wished there were more romantic scenes between Nyang & Ta Hwan. True chemistry between characters are very rare to see in dramas. So, when we have a couple like that I wished I could see more. Like the chemistry between Hae Soo & Wang So in Scarlet Heart Ryeo.
