I’m not sure!
I was really upset with that lol, I know that it’s dumb but what can I do

I was thinking that the troubles will be related to the CEO Anna and Dan Dan, not this kind of thing.

I really thought they would go the sane route and show us the ups and dpwns the main leads have after they marry and FL becomes the official mother, but nooooooo we have to repeat the same stupid plot again and again

I approve of this ending! Bravo ma’am/sir! A bravo to you!:clap:t5::clap:t5::clap:t5::clap:t5::clap:t5::clap:t5:

“What Happened in Bali” had the most shocking ending I had ever seen in a K-drama, until I saw Fashion King. Then I found out that the same writer wrote both dramas. Never again!
Although Bali’s ending was crazy, I could sort of understand how it’s possible to be that way. (Okay, it’s a big stretch!) But Fashion King’s ending didn’t even make any sense at all.

Well, I’d still say go ahead and watch “What happened in Bali.” I actually enjoyed it until the shocking ending.

I actually enjoyed both endings. If taken in a symbolic way, they make sense to me. For example, (SPOILERS AHEAD), in What Happened in Bali, all the characters were on their way to self-destruction. In the end, it was love (or possessiveness) that consumed and eventually killed all of them. That’s how I understood the ending. Plus, crimes of passion are frequently portrayed in novels. I don’t see why a drama can’t go that route :smiley: Also, I remembered a classroom discussion about how some authors, in their work, will associate the consummation of love with death. (For the life of me I cannot remember which English class this was).

As for Fashion King, I really wasn’t expecting that ending at all! I recently watched it for the first time a few weeks ago, and I’m still pondering the ending. I really liked both dramas because I am interested to see how far down the path of self-inflicted misery the characters are willing to go, and the abrupt endings really made me think.

In both dramas, the characters were never going to get a happy ending from the get-go. Downward spiral of self-inflicted misery? Yup. Would I rewatch those dramas? Yeah, when I feel like doing so.

One drama ending that bugged me was Bad Boy. I have rarely felt like a drama ending has left me hanging, but that one…that one is King of Disappointing and Empty Endings for me. I can’t really remember other disappointing drama endings since my memory has been suffering for the past year and my brain wants to retain necessary information, such as which dramas I really liked :smiley:

What the bleep just happened? I spent about four months trudging through this drama, bit by bit, just because I needed to know how it was going to end, and this was what I got for my time? I am berating myself for not giving up on this way back when, against my better judgment. :face_with_symbols_over_mouth::rage:

Oh dear. Didn’t you check reviews, though?

I think I did back when I first put it on my watchlist, which was a long time ago, but people really loved it, to my recollection, and it is really highly rated. Even while watching it, I did not really expect an aggravating ending - unsatisfying, maybe, but not actually aggravating.

Has anyone mentioned Cheese in the Trap in this thread? If not, I feel it’s worth mentioning again. I think I can accept how it ended, but it doesn’t make it right. I wished to see him grow up a bit, mature a bit, become less of an a$$, but we only get the “emails” that have finally been read in the last scene. I think the show could’ve run longer or had a second season. Kim Go Eun was phenomenal at her role, though I don’t think she’d play this type of tropic character again, and we know Park Hae Jin and Seo Kang Joon have had better roles in other shows. Overall, the ending could’ve been better, more precise, and given us a sense of closure with regard to our ML and FL.

Yes, multiple times, :pensive:
In its defense, it was adapted from a webtoon that was still ongoing when the drama aired. That’s why the ending is not a real one.

Time and time again, for good reason. Don’t even get me started. :woman_facepalming:t4:

I contemplated this one several times because like you said, it has rave reviews. Now I know it’s a trap! lol

LOL

It’s not really my genre of choice, but I stuck with it because of the actors. I wouldn’t have minded spending the time getting through it, if not for that ending. I did not see it coming. I was definitely caught in the trap. :sweat_smile:

Ah. That makes sense then why it ended the way it did.
Why make a series if you can’t stretch it enough to wait for the finale?
(Game of Thrones is a great example of how to stretch a series while waiting for the final chapter to publish. Just saying. It can be done.)

Game of Thrones is not finished. Fans are still waiting. The writers of the TV series created their own ending and it was a total failure. Nobody liked it.
