That would have been my kdrama choice, too, despite all the reasons you mentioned!

My main issue was: why two amnesia plots?????

devotedtodrama.bsky.social•9 days ago

Yes... that almost sent me over the edge! Also so much separation anxiety... not good for the heart :)

That would have been my choice as well! 🥹 Now I have to think about something else 🤔😅
I had so much anxiety I've stopped to watch mid-drama and started again only after being sure of the hea... and what an hea!!! 😭 He's been waiting for her all the time without even knowing it 🥹🥹🥹

About the amnesia plot: normally I'm not a fan of it, but I find they used it well here. The second amnesia is also a consequence of the same wound that caused the first one, so it makes sense to me. And it serves the purpose of creating one of the most beautiful happy ending ever.❤️

Ah I am so glad that it worked for you... and I totally agree, it did set up a really beautiful ending :)

Wait, what happened to the original post with the challenge? 😳

The two amnesia plots was a lot especially considering for the most part the writing was really good and they did a good job of balancing the gone with the wind plot and actual Korean history. I do think the extra episode they had threw them of a little bit.

I totally agree... that show definitely took us on a journey!

Not only two amnesia plots, but two in quick succession. Bro should have been dead! But I love this drama. THAT confession scene alone makes it top tier for me ☺️💜

devotedtodrama.bsky.social•9 days ago

I'm in my safe space, so will admit that I have watched that confession scene many, many, many times 👀😂

Got to admit almost picked them. They are pretty epic.
