The funny thing about the ending is my Mom interpreted completely different than me:

Hidden:

I just assumed Hong Gil Dong and his group were all slaughtered, but they didn't show any bodies to be more classy. But my mom just assumed they escaped (because of the lack of bodies) and never returned to the city. I figured I was right, but i kinda like her interpretation better... Tongue

Love the drama but truly disappointed with the sad ending, which was so unexpected.


I don't think it was unexpected at all. The drama got totally serious in the half way (like Hong sister dramas always) and nothing can b echanged in such short period of time. I agree it was sad. But in the genre these kind of endings are usual. It may feel unfair and sad but it's touching. This kind of ending makes us feel inredible feelings unlike
Hidden:

happy endings. It would have been SO lame if they escaped and stayed alive. Also Gil Dong being slave's son alredy means that he shouldn't have been born at all.

maakopla: you are totaly right, happy endings are nice but this kind of ending gives me more and I will definitely remember it for a long time..
Hidden:

It was not the sad ending that made me cry but the talk between Chang Hui and Gil Dong in the end and then the parting with Gomi T_T. People are dying all the time but the things they did will made them immortal...or something along these lines Smile


What bugs me is the opening scene of epi 1 when they were fighting in the noble manīs palace, that was a bit missunderstanding...

Small request: do someone know wher to find the song from the scene where the burning arrows were shooten?? itīs not a part of the OST but I hope someone has it, cause itīs stucked on my mind Cool

Just finished this drama =]

First time watching Kang Ji Hwan act, and he was hilarious and awesome.
I had no idea who Jang Geun Suk was either, but he was good lucking haha. Wub
I found myself rooting for him, but I knew what was going to happen.
Sung Yuri is so awesome in this! =D

The monk and master guy? I loved their scenes together! Tongue
Madam Noh, err forgot her real name, but she's such a good actress.
The king guy was good =D Oh and more eyecandy with Chang Hui's two main helper guys. haha.

I cried too at the part where
Hidden:

Gomi was sent away with Gil Dong's teacher. It was just sad T_T


That's the only part I cried on though I think.

I liked the moment with Jang Keun Suk and Sung Yuri in ep 12
Hidden:

With the steamed buns and Chang Hui has fun teasing her. Haha.



By the end
Hidden:


I was always anticipating that opening scene LOL but it never came... xD.

Love the flaming arrows part at the end. I assume they all died. Crying Even though I want to imagine somehow that they lived. Laugh



The special was fun to watch too. I love hearing about what went on between the actors and their NGs.

I was just a little bored when everything drama started being really serious, but overall goood =D I liked it.[/spoiler]

Whew! I just finished watching this. It was hard to watch towards the end you know, cuz some of those eps were like 80 mins or something. Crazy

And I gotta say, it's g-r-r-r-e-a-t!!! (cuz u kno, i'm eating Frosted Flakes with it Tongue)

Anywho, wow! My first fusion! err.. whatever you call this type of k-drama. I mean, I saw Scandal in Old Seoul, but the blending of the old and the new in that one was a lot closer, time-wise. The whole thing was awesome - the costumes, the looks (they should've chosen Yi Nok for that Street Fighter movie coming out! hehe), the twists and turns of the story! Yay!!! It was really exciting! Like, OMG, how do you recover from finding out everything you've ever believed in and have worked and risked your life for this whole time was a lie?! Haha! It reminded me of the teacher in Hwang Jin Yi, cuz the same actor was in it, lookin as cute as ever, if not more, and how Jin Yi pretty much shattered her teacher's world when she told her that crane dance was nonsense! Haha!

I just have to say, man, when the crazy king cried over Minister Hong's departure, and the moments just before that... well, it was sad Tongue I felt for him. Poor guy. Tsk tsk. First, it's In Hyung's mom ordering the death of HGD's mom, then Eun Hye, and now the Queen! faint It's always those women in the shadows you see!! Mad Like, Atia and Servilia! Although, that whole thing when Chang Hui threatened the nobles to be loyal to him or else, with his two soldiers raising their swords on them didn't really compare to the scene in Rome when Octavian swiped the throne from right under Cicero with his two soldiers showing their blades--oh wait, I'm getting off topic. Oh yeah, the part when HGD finally showed himself to his father, in exchange for the lives of the thieves that were caught, and to do as he says else he'll have war in his hands--then CUT! to the scene where Yongmun and the thieves joined forces for a moment with their fire sticks and the wind blowing in one direction--that was cool. The ending was ok. I wanted to see them die, like you know, die. Like, I get that the whole place was burnt, but where're the bodies? But, it was an appropriate ending, so I'm happy.

I loved almost everything about this show, 'cept for that annoying music that would come on in those sad scenes. Thank gawd for the mute button! Roll Eyes The only thing that disappointed me abt this show was the fact that I never got to see the return of ep.1. I was expecting it to be like um, Time Between Dog and Wolf, where ep.1 is repeated in ep.7 or was it 8, cuz the story started out in the middle. *shrugs* The ending was confusing. I mean, what was Gil Dong doing standing up on top of the roof wearing red with that same stick? And the point of showing us the modern times in Korea? I didn't see the connection. The two worlds can co-exist, imo, like how England is right now, with the royalties still existing, but with the commoners living... well, living on their own, in their own terms and not under the nobles' mercy. I believe Japan has this too. I'd have preferred that ending, but that's just me Laugh
