I'm so emotional right now. Nobody would ever believe me. Has it been a week? No, I think it's only been a few days, maybe 5? Every day, it has been an addiction. I started watching a k-drama, that is over a hundred episodes long, not like me to follow such long series. But In a weird way it was addicting, not like my favorite k-dramas, Secret Garden, my GF is a gumiho, oh my lady etc.. not at all. More of a family comedy, and after a long time watching it, I fell in love with the son Jung hyuk and se kyung. They were so adorable. I so wanted them to be together, it was confusing. But after changing my mind like 10 times about who I thought was going to end up with who,
((((( WARNING FROM HERE ON IT'S ONLY SPOILERS )))))
I was sure about the doctor and Hwang jung eum, and if it was going to be my way se kyung would forget about the doctor after a while and go to jung hyuk, Time flies while watching tons of episodes, and I was beginning to realize that the episodes left were a few, and I still couldn't see se kyungs feelings. She is so hard to understand.
So back and forth I was getting excited and disappointed, will this turn out they way I want it to turn out? Back and forth, confusing. But at the end I guessed probably 5 ways how it could turn out, and there were a few ways I could accept: them not together, but still it would become a "good ending" okay last episode...
From this great BIG idea how I wanted it to end, that BIG idea got smaller and smaller, and I could still accept it even if it turned out with a LITTLE of the happiness I wanted to see. Basically I wanted Se kyung to find love and live happy, she deserves it more than any other character along with Jung hyuk, okay so the idea got smaller and smaller so just if I could see their daily life as usual go on??? Okay okay,, okay I can except it...
So se kyung, her dad and little sister are leaving for another country on the last ep. No I don't believe that. It will become very cliché that AT LEAST se kyung will change her mind at the airport and still live in Korea, no? Okay than AT LEAST that they will show in the next clip (a few years later) Oh wait yay they are showing 3 years later...
Umm, okay Jung hyuk got longer hair and you get to see eum jung hwang ^^ and then the most SHOCKING lines in the whole series comes out from hwang, you see before the 3 years later sign came up you got to see doctor saying to se kyung that he will give a ride to the airport. Okay and then 3 years later omg what will happen, will she get over him and go to Jung hyuk :D there is still a small hope in my heart that I never will get rid of till..... those lines....
I seriously got shivers and was still like a statue, I was so bewildered. with eyes wide open, cold, and the first idea that came in my mind was a car accident but I didn't want to think... just watch, just watch and see...
And then back to the car on the way to the airport. This scene was LOOOONG. Everything was said, se kyungs feeling came out, about him, about her situation and dream. And I'm a statue in shock, tears just keep coming. They speak slow, a conversation that feels like a million years long, am I listening to what they are saying, or waiting till something going to happen? I'm thinking, but yes I get everything she is saying.
So what do I get for the last Scene? For the (I want to swear but I don't) I get:
Se kyung: I wish time could stop for a moment, ( they both are in tears) he turns his head (I'm ready something's going to....)
Snapshot, in black n white.
WTF!?
(Not even the usual ending music comes on, which has come on EVERY epsiode, no just SILENCE)
No my reaction didn't even come till the commercial that came after that was over. I was just still, didn't think or react on it. But the first words that came out of my mouth was ige bouya? (what is this in Korean) and then I started crying, It felt weird because I admit that I cry all the time while watching dramas, but this time it was like something happened to me. If I think about it.. it's like I'm a little kid that has been waiting eagerly to eat my b-day cake, I've been counting down days for it or something. But not only do I not get any cake but my whole life was just a dream and I woke up to reality in an alley, cold and poor.
This is a huge disappointment. It probably was the writers intention to make the audience shocked, sad and gossipy. But still, it was like a cruel experiment on humans, what would happen if you give them so much happiness that they will feel like their hearts are going to burst and then just take it away AND make it horrible, miserable. That is how I feel. Never ever would I have thought this was going to happen.
It's such a long series, I'm not used to that first of all. And it's really really really really funny, I laughed so hard, and it's daily family matters, you get sad, you get aww, you get worried, excited, bored, annoyed and yeah pretty much everything you experience in life, they show. But this ending... I couldn't accept it, in one way it's a cool idea and you see how much emotions and how talkative I became after watching it. Still, why this series??? wei, wei, wei, weiiiii.
It must be Jung hyuk that is causing me to write this much and why I'm taking this disappointment so seriously. I really really really really liked his character and when I FINALLY understood that it wasn't meant to be with se kyung (which was really really really hard to accept) another bomb comes at me and KILLS two characters in the series, THOSE TWO CHARACTERS, how? how could you writers do this??? Se kyung, doctor (and of course jung hyuk) were my favorite characters, probably the most popular ones and you guys kill them? What's worse is that it's not even for sure that they got killed, you just stopped there for us to think what happened? But when it's obvious that they got killed!!!! That is just so mean, it's like someone tells you that someone close to you has passed away but without evidence, you never get to see the body, know why, how, when. That ending..... I think I'm going to cry again.
And you know what, I should have predicted something depressing happening. Everything was changing at the end. In na became famous, left the house and Kwang soo became very lonely, ahjumma left the house (okay she married and lived happy) but come oooooon, why forget Julien???????? ESPACIALLY now that we got to know he had a crush on se kyung, then hello??? let him confess?? Or something! They totally forgot him. What disappointed me also is that the dad, came only on the last ep? and then that sucky ending...
Now my addiction can finally end ( I thought when there was 3 eps left)
yeah It's over... But of all the series... I have a lot of series that I never finish, don't know why it just happens that I never watch the ending of them.... Would it have been better if this was one of them that I never would have finished...?

Commnet tha I agree to 100%
I was in fact shocked with this ending and am one of the said pissed off fans. I really liked this sitcom and thought it was a really light and fun watch but then SUDDENLY they throw this curveball at us at the end and turn the happy, comedic, family sitcom into a melodrama.
They left all the wrong loose ends and focused the last couple episodes on the whole “boohoo-shes-leaving-korea-and-leaving-behind-an-admirer-and-first-love.” if I knew this was going to happen, I wouldn’t have wasted over 2500 minutes on this.
