The point is: I don't know why but most good shows are ruined by an end that disappoints you. really?'. In real life the society is the most critical towards successful women. odilettante: Apparently Im the only one who didnt mind the ending, but thats because I never really expected a true happy ending. When it ended, I was like 'is that finished? Part 1: a full plot recap. js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; That's the slowest rushed ending in history. Why writers? Don't ever do the same." I dont really know what they were trying to impart with us at the end. Hye-ran didnt make me kill anyone. In fact, I may have already plotted one out in my head and will be happy to share my ideas with JTBC provided they give me full access to Hye-rans closet. Tae-wook wonders about his dream, too, as he drives to the station. for you! If it wasnt for the ending I would have recommended Misty (plot holes and all) to everyone. It's the kind of love which destroys because it wants to be perfect and unconditional when it is not. Personally, I loved it because, for a moment, I loved Misty almost as much as I did when it first started. June 7, 2021. Through the process of fighting the murder charge, the couple grows closer again. Yoon makes plans and fails to meet with Hye-ran because a man with a crowbar attacks her. What will happen when her public defender husband, Kang Tae Wook (Ji Jin Hee), decides to defend her and save their failing marriage? She has agency. Courthouse scenes are not necessarily necessary. I dislike the opposite message in movies like the Christmas favorite "A beautiful life" (partially also Hometown cha-cha-cha which I loved, where the ML's reason for self-exile were ridiculous: the guy did not even do anything wrong and "greed"/"ambition" were blamed, when, as sorry as I found his story, the guy in the hospital is the one at fault for messing up despite warning and then not listening to follow up advice). 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). (function(d, s, id) { Someone here asked what the Title Misty stood for ? All the corrupt people she can expose and the female anchors she can inspire and the gorgeous fashion they can wear, but at the price of one Tae-wook? The ending was a disappointment because it made everything she had previously fought for seem useless because clearly, after finding out about her husband, she wasn't going to be happy. I was actually confused after I first saw the episode whether he died or not. A verification email has been sent to your new email address. Granted, not about killing him, but if she lies about one thing, it makes everything she says suspicious. I don't even really like steak, but **shudder** that is criminal. That being said it has been both an honor and a privilege to watch this show with you and I'm glad I could read your thoughts. Despite knowing Tae-wook was the murderer, I was worried that the reveal it would be sloppy and it wasnt so for that, I applaud them. She made her bed through the choices she made, with eyes wide open. when TW's assistant found but chose to ignore the clothes TW threw out, and when JBC's director chose to broadcast MW as the culprit despite HR's confession (his reasoning being it's 'the facts', but I think if TW arrived at the station before MW, that 'fact' could have easily been another one, or the truth in this case). I would also not put MW and TW's actions on the same level. .but this will at least reduce his sentence right? Ive been a dramabeans lurker for 5 years now. I really would have liked to see a well adjusted female character that could have a great career while also communicating with her spouse about big life decisions, rather than deceive them in an attempt to deny reality (which they both did, for their respective secrets -and it would have been good for this parallel to have been made explicit to them as well-). I thought that 2 points in the show embodied the title quite nicely: I came to that conclusion around Episode 8 and have been calling it' 'foggy' in my head. It is unfortunate that Misty is one of those dramas which ending negated everything. Maybe MW, but certainly not in TW's case. * When their souls leave their bodies, at that point, there is no return (dominoes clacking}}}}}. It would have been better that way writers. also thank you @mary and @odilettante for giving us a place to come together and yell about our feelings! It's a basic function of humans. And if that's the case, what happens to the person he asked who actually did the deed? Meanwhile, Myung-woo meets Eun-joo to talk her out of her misguided hate. fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs); But the thing that I found annoying was the show acting as though she had an affair with Kevin Lee. I have to admit that the still shot of the leading actress (as shown in the picture above) is not too convincing . The music is amazing. I disagree: skipping her mother's funeral was objectionable no matter her gender. . But Im glad they spared us extra doses of Kangs shoddy sleuthing to give us more satisfying scenes. Some suffer a poorly written ending to an otherwise good drama. I imagine Ji-wons glass is now stored in his office drawer too. The witer of the letter also asks him to find the "Adamas" to get Su Hyeon. he probably still would have committed suicide, but Detective Kang's dogged persistence at pretending to be competent when it's too late suuuuure pushed him a little closer to the edge. He didn't want his boss found out. As other people have mentioned, I hated how she abandoned the principles she tried so hard to keep by letting Myungwoo take the blame. After reading the post however, I realised I pretty much had similar thoughts/ questions. And Misty as a show will also stay with me for a while and while I have conflicting feelings about the last few episodes I definitely have FEELINGS so nobody can say that this show was boring. The audience knows he didn't, the other characters know he didn't, the police officer knows he didn't. @giegie0384 is the right one, I think. 5. mary: I feel so bad for her. Go Joon was there, and also Ji Won~, I'm watching The Good Wife too! I didn't like that the answer seemed to be "not" by the end. That's true.She was gonna reveal him on the show at that time that's why he was supposed to be a guest. 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. So it was disingenuous on his part. That night, Tae-wook comes home to an empty house while Hye-ran treats the News Nine team to drinks. But that's just me. However, he learn nothing in those long years in prison. Its her first serious drama and the project that made her physically and mentally drained the most (she said it during her interview) but is also the one dearest to her heart. check out my post about the ending: ^-^ Mistys ending however, was so ??? I just want to say all the beanies summed up my feelings of disappointed in the ending of the drama. Hye-ran is devastated to now know the truth, and wishes Tae-wook had just killed her when he learned about the affair. But mostly he vowed to support Hye-ran, which is why he accepted his punishment (as described by Myung-woo): to protect Hye-ran until the bitter end. I thought he wld go to jail but she would wait for him. Episodes: 16. Even with a few over-dramatic clichs, "The Glory" manages to keep the interest going all through the eight episodes in part one. Yes, she made questionable decisions but she had a sense of what was right and wrong and was on this blazing trail towards justice, no matter what it took. Hye-ran thinks to herself that people who live a crazy life are chasing things that cant be caught. Horrible ending to an otherwise awesome drama. Lets recall office manager Lee gave that speech *AFTER* he had discovered evidence that Tae-wook was the murderer. See how shitty that sounds? He leaves to surrender to the police but Hye-ran runs after him and begs for some time so they can figure out what to do together. Spoilers Ahead Lol. Tae Wok was honest, fair and firm in his life and love but. ooppss he had a dark side.. The ending of Misty is 100% consistent with the narrative of the 15 episodes that got us there. !, Exactly how I feel right now! I'm late but here to protect Reporter Kwak. Anyway, that being said, I did really like the drama. They were gorgeous of course but also hint at style over substance and most of all, an inflated sense of importance. Even if MW is the writer's mouthpiece, this ending still left me feeling shortchanged. js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js"; The story, the cast, everything about it was amazing. He tells her that people cant really pinpoint the exact thing thats wrong in their lives theyre all just trying to survive each day. 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. :(. 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? 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. Here I feel that the issue shouldn't have been on the merits of the decision, but on the fact that they did not talk about it at all (he was running around like a clueless idiot, buying her a jewel, completely unaware of what she was planning to do, it was clear they did not talk about such a major life decision-he was not only disappointed, but completely blindsided-). 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 show was in their non-English-speaking Top Ten for several weeks after its premiere, though, so . Still, the result is the same. Thanks for pointing out @growingbeautifully and thank you for those beautiful flowers just like you. When I say I like the ending, I mean I like it thematically. All she did was connect the dots. odilettante: Not to mention what, exactly, was on that black box video. Well, the ending was kinda unexpected but not exactly shocking. i enjoyed this drama with all of its turns and surprises it should've been called Twisty the cast was stellar, acting was stellar, pantsuits stellar but the fluffy floral dress wasn't in character, especially when she was at home. Not the moral equivalent of MW or even the widow's assault with a fork, could have happened literally to anyone playing in a park. I loved some parts of the character, hated others and didn't understand part of her motivations. It's a pretty common trope (guy focuses on career while his home life falls apart -cheating or fighting or divorce-). 2022-03-17 00:15:20 1244 views. In this drama, I'm disapointed by the couple Hye Ran and Tae Wook. You didnt make me kill anyone. How did the fake witness describe the fight between Tae-wook and Kevin so perfectly, even though it was proven he couldnt see anything? Yes, there are saints out there, but many of us (if not most), when held at gun point, are naturally self-serving. When his father asks why, he admits its because he killed someone. Dark, mature, suspenseful. Yes that's exactly how I felt !! Of course, with female character you have additional bs to deal with, like the "go back to the kitches to be a housewife" thing that, however, in this drama is done only by two characters, both shown as pathetic and "villains", not by "good guys" that clearly admire her for being a model of female empowerment (this is despite her fighting prejudice like being thrown aside for someone more appealing, but then she pushes back and goes for the director position), someone that sets the trend. Ha Myung Woo's sacrifice didn't make sense and was all for nothing because of the last 10 mins. 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 being perfect came out of nowhere, she did not marry him because he was perfect. This. Outsmarted by his wife, Eun Hye Soo who not only used the assassin Yoon Sun to render him paralyzed. Suspicious Partners, Stranger (fist season, the antagonist). On the child issue, it's not about being wrong or right, but, as his wife said, about having different expectations. His name? 16 never happened. I wonder why the badass heroines who fight against the corrupt and go-against-the-trend always end up alone,and partially bitter,as if the price they had to pay for being awe inspiring public figures was getting a hole in the heart that can never be filled. She pretends not to have seen the traffic violation letter while Tae-wook pretends not to notice that shes already seen it. Knowing Myung-woo's obsession with avenging Hye-ran, I imagine he'd kill himself and chase Tae-wook around Hell just to torture him for leaving Hye-ran alone. Tae-wooks now included. Why jail oppa felt he had to do all those things for her? Sad. Him taking the fall for it didnt make sense to me because he was still in prison then and unless he hires someone else to take fall as the assassin, Im finding it hard to believe how hed prosecuted but then again, Detective Kang was such an absolute idiot smi wouldnt be surprised. I mean they are choosing not to listen to the one thing Hyeran has been screaming the entire time, that it IS her choice for HER life. Like Myung-woo himself said, second time is easier. mary: Im sure all the Misty beanies are itching to share their thoughts in detail, so heres what happened this week, to help us make sense of the last few minutes. I cannot stand the plot holes in the last two episodes. Thanks to you and the commenters here, I feel I am better off without watching the Mist/Fog/(over here it's Haze!!!) I believe it was William Dean Howells who pointed out almost 100 years ago "What the American public wants is a tragedy with a happy ending.". Closing episode 12 with In-Hye's written letter was very cute and made the drama have a satisfying ending. Apparently I dropped Misty before this horrific incident. Please enter your username or email address. Your email address will not be published. No one did expect that kind of ending. Even the most righteous characters have their dark shady sides. Mi-ho and Jerry arrive at the fish industry and enter the premises without anxiety in the slightest as . EXACTLY, in the end I totally don't find any of these men in Hyeran's life swoony for "protecting" her. Hye-ran watches over Yoon in the hospital, where Eun-joo finds her to say goodbye. The ending in particular I found depressing in a way the rest of the drama - however moody and dark - wasn't. In-Hye always had a plan for her family . I don't know, probably yes, but not that soon, or even he wouldn't. Anyway, if anything, I wont be camping outside your door with that "you made us watch this show" I really thought that I was prepared when I saw the ending coming but hell no.haha. Well you're not alone,cause the above conversation I copy pasted almost totally reminds me of EMPRESS KI!!! It wouldn't have been a 'tragedy' if there was any possibility that he might've actually done it. He was also selfish in that GHR was denied the chance to present the news about TW being the murder- her want to create a just society. Haha you should just watch the end scene, when the titular character finally shows up: mist! She was betrayed by those men she loved and trusted the most. There could be miracles you know, there you have JBL, and Mother they were awesome until the end . version : 'v2.2' // use version 2.2 I thought they were gonna reveal it during the interview too, that's why Hye-ran seemed a bit melancholic backstage. And the funny thing is they are mostly criticized by other women, whatever she does. CONTINUED: It didn't do anything. Kariernya sebagai news anchor sangat cemerlang dan sukses. Misty why???????? You will receive a link to create a new password via email. Wow. Why they confused it with love? Hye-ran is absolutely awesome, but she is no saint. Misty final episode explanation? The following morning, Eun-joo ignores Myung-woos warning and continues her one-woman protest outside the JBC building. ..plus so many questions unanswered. HMW was a totally unnecessary character to be used as a joker,the way he was portrayed; the worst plothole. Then she started talking about what a pervert the loan shark was. One day, her life is turned upside down when she gets mixed up in a murder case with her ex lover and his wife. Wrong again ate Rigby. For answering questions, showing us more of the characters weve become invested in, and fashion. I confess to being in a drama slump and not watching much of anything except Drama Specials and not everyday. It's really not, though. He re-imagines the scene when he interrupted Hye-rans interrogation at the start of the series. I guess prisons were full with all the innocent men/women he sent there over the years . ..neither happy nor sad.
