But more than Tae-wooks death, Im more disappointed by the fact that we cut so abruptly away from Hye-ran. This character clearly was not the female lead, and that's okay as far as her characterization is concerned). We all made our own choices. No She works tirelessly and shuts out all rising youngsters competing with her. "Beyond passionate romance, I would like to depict unpretentious love, be it a married couple's love or that of an extramarital affair," he said, adding "This is more than just a gripping story." Does that mean Tae-wooks reaction to it is more out of his sense of guilt and grief knowing what hed done to Kevin than seeing seeing Hye-rans actions? She tried to live a dream life but her husband never loved her, she lost her unborn baby, her best friend turned out to not be a friend, and now Myung-woo says all of this started because when Eun-joo was a teenager, she told Myung-woo that Hye-ran was going to see the creepy jewelry store owner to get money for her tuition. She turns to the camera, and her eyes fill with tears as we hear Tae-wook asking, Hye-ran, are you happy?. The real truth, however, is that the cam footage was not the whole story: she was coerced and blackmailed. Yes, Hyeran had "principles" and preached about facts and truth, but she was also, like most humans at the end of the day, ambitious and selfish. Choices have consequences, good or bad, and blaming someone else for your actions will get you nowhere. I'm not disapointed by the end because it was clear from pretty soon that it will be not a happy ending. ', seemed so sarcastic and it indicated that all of this mess was indeed Hye Ran's fault. }); The ending answered EVERYTHING, in my opinion. I'm not even mad at the murder per se but that he pulled Hye Ran into it and that she finally LOVED him only for everything come crushing down. Great recap, guys! Yay for Jin Ki Joo as Ji Won. An popular anchorwoman, Go Hye Ran (Kim Nam Joo) is suspected of murder. Through the process of fighting the murder charge, the couple grows closer again. Vague; hazy. But not before repeating that Hye-ran is at fault for ruining everyones lives. PS: Sorry about d typos. I don't know. Can't remember the name at the moment, but I really think, on the contrary, this choice between work and family life is a well explored trope (my opinion is that this is all bs and you should be able to, and can, have both). She deserved to be understood, not abandoned. So i decided to remove this show from my watch list for you! I did hate the ending but it's bittersweet hate. It's as if the detective did not hear a single word Manager Lee said to him. So, I'm not sure he could have gone on to do that interview regardless of interacting with Detective Kang. Why didnt he ever ask Hye Ran the one thousand questions or ONE question that mattered most? I'm a bit disappointed. She is strong, ambitious and vulnerable, but at the same time she is cold, manipulative and immensely hypocritical. Rambling thoughts (my apologies): They voluntarily fall like flies - the men who surround a femme fatale. , "That was the story I signed up for, not a poorly written whodunnit and dont even get me started on the plotholes, horrendous investigation and legal drama.". Some were clearly questionable regardless of gender (I doubt, for example, putting work over attending your mother's last moments on this heart would be treated "neutrally" regardless of gender). In his drive to change GHRs hungry ambitions and make her love him, he didnt understand that she wouldnt have changed her mind now because she needed him now. If the point is "this is not binay, you can have both" and wishing there was *also* (the FL had this as her dramatic flaw) a well adjusted female character with both a great career and happy interpersonal relationships in this drama, I would be onboard. Then everything started with you and your petty gossip. odilettante: 8.4% isn't too shabby, especially for cable, and it's now the third highest-rated JTBC drama (just after Strong Woman Do Bong-soon). Tae Wook HOW COULD YOU`? I was eager to know how the writer gonna find the way to wrap this drama with that much mess on taewook's end and knowing how upright taewook is he would never let himself live after getting away with murder. Much better ending imho. Wasn't expecting Kevin Lee to suddenly pop up.. Instead they show her loosing everything and possibly being so broken that even tho she now has a talkshow she wont be able to continue after TWs death. I can't get over Tae Wook commiting suicide, but alas, he already showed obsessive, dangerous traits from episode 1, so I guess we cannot complain about him doing extreme things, we were warned. sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna. If she had not gossiped on Hye-ran that fateful night, Myung-woo would not have ran that wildly to her and killed the man. Then In-Hye splits her money with her sisters. for the politician) and bring down Hwanil Steel or Kang Yool/ Golden Club who in the new scenario, had possible links to KLs murder. But he didn't understand her ambition and didn't accept it very well or too late. It's in the scene where she tells him that she loves him (finally) but she wants to break up with him because she doesn't like the pain that comes with love. Why Taewook didn't talk to her? version : 'v2.2' // use version 2.2 People were just doing things. I don't agree with the point because we have plenty of examples of this "ambition is bad" both in western ("A Fortunate Man": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Fortunate_Man) and korean ("A Single Rider": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Single_Rider) movies. Hye-ran deserves happiness. 4.5 Stars overall because the rest was impeccable. It is like that after all. Hye-ran tries to ignore her doubts about Tae-wook, but while claiming her brooch from the evidence room, Detective Kang shares that it was the brooch that started it all. There are some things where her gender comes into play inevitably. Is it karmic justice for her aborting the baby without asking him? People are responsible for their actions, but actions also have consequences. We can probably pick any satisfactory theory from the past Open Thread comments, but the show made such a big to-do about it, youd think theyd give us a little hint in the finale. Gone is the media that was about uncovering social inequities and corruption. I mean, KL died so pathetically. Aug 31, 2020. Hye-ran rejects this theory and storms out. * When their souls leave their bodies, at that point, there is no return (dominoes clacking}}}}}. Tae Wook bottled everything inside that nicely toned body of his, only to loose it on Kevin's fragile skull(that coroner ought to be fired btw). // Load the SDK asynchronously Kim Namjoo is , I also don't buy that Tae-wook died for love. but I totally missed the car crash sound and woowwwwwwww, I should've had my coffee before reading this recap. After Chairman Kwon Jae Kyu's death, the golden keys to the kingdom didn't go to the murdering son Kwon Hyun Joo. I thought it was realistic. Yoon makes plans and fails to meet with Hye-ran because a man with a crowbar attacks her. Not that I buy this anti-capitalist "ambition is bad", "don't be greedy" spiel, but movies in general (I remember a Tom Hanks flic with him being a high powered lawyer that relieves life and chooses the "correct" option of poverty and love) and Korean ones in particular have pushed this narrative for a long time. I'm okay with a tragic end, I've been through quite a lot of tragic endings and stories during my movies- & dramas viewing years, but at least give me a glorious one, give me an epically tragic one. Have we been watching the same drama? I mean, I know they were hinting at it (I was yelling at my TV "don't you kill Tae Wook!) But I guess its all about accepting peoples choices. I wanted it to be such that their love could withstand anything. Tae Wook looked criminally handsome in that scene and oh, so so devastated! The series ends as we see Kim returning to her normal life. I think Hye-ran hold the live interview for him to confess his crime and save Myun-woo. He tells her that people cant really pinpoint the exact thing thats wrong in their lives theyre all just trying to survive each day. mary: I wanna replace it with the concept from Smart Prison Living where *spoiler alert* going into a tunnel just means going in and out of prison. Like you are happy, we are happy, everybody is happy. Misty is one of my fave drama now and yeah even it has the foggiest ending, I am still glad I have watched it. He was obsessed with protecting GHR. SO SAD. Black's ending was that it created too many. I mean why couldn't he hv just taken responsibility 4 his actio s instead allowing MW to do dat? The writer chose to end things this way. I dont really know what they were trying to impart with us at the end. That would have been more like him in my opinion. "I'm just doing my job." All the poor dude wanted to hear from his wife was "Well done! Would have wanted more flashbacks of Eun Joo with Hyeran and Myung Woo. .its not like Kevin was very likable and ppl would miss him except his wife maybe. Misty was a fun ride until the end, where it ran out of gas* and the writers just threw together a mess. Totally agree about recommending this show. mary: I feel so bad for her. Someone take Detective Kang's badge and give it to her instead. Misty - Obscured or clouded by or as if by mist. Hye Ran learns her lesson about honesty and tells Tae Wook everything. (function(d, s, id) { c'mon, Hye Ran wouldn't dress that fluffly at home loved the pantsuits and the shoes. Lee cries in his car as he remembers Tae-wook giving him tickets and reservation for a vacation as if hes sending him away. ending, simply because all the problems within. I feel bad for Hye Ran though. That's the slowest rushed ending in history. The music is amazing. She got all that coming for her. Tae-wook shows Hye-ran the letter and she wordlessly locks herself up in her room, crying at how messed up everything is. Please click the link in that email to complete the email change process. A man pursuing career and wrecking their home life is pretty much a trope (Suspicious Partners, Stranger 1st season, I would say My Mister for the "possessive/needy/insecure I-want-you-to-distance-yourself-from-family-and-community-and-focus-only-on-me vibe"). I am one of few who felt that Misty ended in the only way possible, that of Tae Wook's death protecting Hye Ran to the end. I expected him to tell the truth and take responsibility for it. I don't think that "you can't have a career and a happy family life" was the goal of the show, though I agree that this is kinda of the vibe, and I would have liked another well adjusted female character with a great career and nice family life (even without asking for someone with a kid or who was there for her mother's funeral, I would settle for good communication with their partner about major life decisions/issues). Director Jang mobilizes the News Nine team to cover this breaking news. The person I ended up disliking - to my surprise - is Eun Soo (after all, she was the victim), and Ki Joon was that character who rubbed me the wrong way even if he was onto something that turned out to be the truth. I think the show made it seem like it could be a potential problem that he observed and filmed them, but ultimately he rather idolized her professionally. If Detective Kang did his job (properly) in the first place, he wouldn't have to question almost every little 'feeling' he had. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, No one did expect that kind of ending. No, the show was not a murder mystery, it was a *Greek tragedy* where the Gods play tricks on us mere mortals for their sport and we suffer. I don't know what to think about the finale. The ending of Misty is 100% consistent with the narrative of the 15 episodes that got us there. They wanted to use Foggy, but who would've want to watch a drama called Foggy? You don't even need to be lovers or married to communicate. What will happen when her public defender husband, Kang Tae Wook (Ji Jin Hee), decides to defend her and save their failing marriage? There was obsession and lust, but no love. But she kept quiet about it the whole day until she saw Myung-woo. It's really not, though. In the trailer , . Eun-joo sees how tortured Hye-ran is at the increasing evidence of Tae-wooks guilt, and she ends her protest, having achieved her goal of making Hye-ran miserable. Why jail oppa felt he had to do all those things for her? After a while, i did realise that the whole point of the ending was how much we DIDNT know Tae-Wook and his motivations. I want to know what shell do after finding out Tae-wook is dead, not get a vague reflection on how difficult it is for her to be happy and then nothing. Someone as good as Park Ji Sang .. Who stands and helps all the weak people .. Also, why couldn't they explain who tried to kill Yoon or was it a red herring and purely coincidental? Directed by Ahn Gil-ho and written by Kim Eun-sook, "The Glory" is a Korean drama series centered around a woman in her mid-thirties who is determined to punish those who wronged her. The astronaut named Eve Kim will be played by Gong Hyo jin who will meet Lee Min ho as Gong Ryong who is a tourist on the space station. :). I thought she was going to reveal the truth on her show, so the whole him dying made no sense for me. Seo Hee was supposed to be interviewed by Woo Sin for the book, but he disappeared. As for the extramarital affair, how is it unpretentious or even love? Filming began on 2017-October. What didn't get answered? But one thing is clear, Go Hye Ran was a wonderful, amazing, inspiring, beautiful, powersuit-working protagonist and I'll remember her for a long long time. I would say "a fortunate man" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Fortunate_Man) as a western movie and "a single rider" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Single_Rider) as a korean one would be the best examples of the theme (latter is not a kdrama, a kmovie maybe). Tags: Ahn Nae-sang, Ji Jin-hee, Kim Nam-joo, Misty, Your email address will not be published. Dark, mature, suspenseful. Anyway, if anything, I wont be camping outside your door with that "you made us watch this show" However like a lot of people, I was quite dissatisfied with the ending and found the two hour finale overly-long and self-indulgent. My only real disappointment was wanting to see Kang Yool and Hwanil totally destroyed, but I suppose I just have to trust that Prosecutor Byun and Ji-won will continue their respective investigations. It stars Jang Ki-Yong, Chae Soo-bin, and . If HMW were released on the day Kevin died,how would he be able to find and kill Kevin in such a short time and how he possibly could have known about Kevin's presence and his being a threat for Hye Ran while being jailed for 19 years? ", @odilettante,you said this show reminds you of a modern day sageuk? To ask her the question if she was happy, mocks who she is and what she stands for. Rating : Still A+. It was misty indeed, and choices are what define us in the end, we all have our positive traits, but we indeed have negative instincts inside. The drama's message is clearly that she has the right to "go for it" and should be praised for it. This show left me BROKENHEARTED. It all boils down to Tae Wook. The cast members are really doing their best to tell the real story and feelings as sincerely as possible," the producer said. Just gonna repeat here what I said about the ending: odilettante: Even though Ive never been a fan of Eun-joo, I couldnt help but feel that she got the short end of the stick. She dumped Kevin Lee in pursuit of her ambitions and so why wouldn't she continue the facade of the grieving widow upon Tae Wook's death rather than revealing that Tae Wook was the murderer? Like a femme fatale who destroys the men because they loved her to much. However, in my opinion, this ending fits the drama so it is a good ending. There was clearly a lack of communication. She questions everything shes worked so hard for, wondering if Jang has regrets, too. GHRs expert reporting skills should have been used for a greater purpose. But Lee senses something wrong and insists on postponing the vacation. mary: You have to give it to them. Both dramas are beautifully made, and even until the last episodes people don't turn to be suddenly whatever else. The whole episode building up to the not-so-big reveal was properly executed. version : 'v2.2' // use version 2.2 Tomorrow Season 1 ending explained: Heartbreak, recovery and a renewed purpose hinting at the next season; Tomorrow Season 1 ending explained: Heartbreak, recovery and a renewed purpose hinting at the next season K-drama Tomorrow came to an end after 16 episodes. ^-^ Mistys ending however, was so ??? It was counterintuitive for him to delete it. "I hope we will get more of such badass female leads without all the tragedy involved!!" I was actually confused after I first saw the episode whether he died or not. Even the kindest person can turn into a cold-hearted person. It would have given Eun joo and the not too bright cop a little closure. " Love it? Maybe well never know what they truly are. Stop hating and just live your life.. I agree.Despite our hopes,if such a thing would happen it'd be unrealistic. She would never back down on exposing her own husband. What did you not understand? I love this drama because it was about an unabashed, ambitious woman, that went for what she wants regardless of her circumstances in life, and because of the man who stood right next to her despite everything--he defended her despite of his suspicions of his infidelity and promised to support her as she goes as far as she wants. Maybe. TWs micro-acting with his eyes. Thanks to you and the commenters here, I feel I am better off without watching the Mist/Fog/(over here it's Haze!!!) now that I think about it I don't know what the drama wanted to convey to its viewers .i feel the writers just wanted to bring a twist to the narrative and do something surprising . She has agency. It did not feel significant or punchy at all. She acted offended that her husband would believe she slept with Kevin and denied it, and the argument is he should have trusted her? Mr.Sunshine (2018) Because it is a drama set during the turbulent period of the Korean Empire, Mr. Sunshine's sad ending is something that almost everyone already expected in advance. You didnt make me kill anyone. Go Hye Ran's eye makeup and wardrobe FTW~, And can we please send some love to Go Joon? Tae-wook warns Kevin to stay away from his wife, but Kevin rubs in the fact that Hye-ran loved him, her old boyfriend, yet her husband never even heard those words from her. My interpretation was that the title of the drama was misty, because you can see Hye Ran, getting super misty eyes at the end of the show.
