The Episode Review

Heartbreaking endings work when the heartbreak fits in well with the rest of the show. For a series that evoked excitement throughout its run, this ending is a surprisingly gloomy one.

Chang-ho was always meant lớn turn into Big Mouse. His final transformation should have been charged & electrifying. Instead, coming at the cost of Mi-ho’s life, it was sad và left a bitter aftertaste. Chang-ho himself never wanted this position.

Through the course of the show, Mi-ho và Chang-ho’s relationship kept viewers rooted to lớn the story. Her death only serves the purpose of pushing Chang-ho’s character development, unfortunately falling into a trope that many female fictional characters are relegated to. In fact, we could have gotten the very same ending with Mi-ho alive, well and supporting Chang-ho in his endeavours to lớn become a good Big Mouse. It would have been amazing lớn watch them be Big Mouse together. That, at least, would have prevented the show from ending on such a dismal note.

Aside from that, the kết thúc is suitable. Chang-ho’s transformation into Big Mouse is complete và Do-ha gets his punishment. Although, their war seems to lớn go on. I guess the prediction of Chang-ho’s long và unlucky life came true in the end.

In general, the episode falls short as a season finale. The first half drags on a bit while the over is extremely rushed. Chang-ho processes his wife’s terminal illness quicker than one would expect. It’s also a shame that we don’t get khổng lồ see him và his father-in-law at the end, considering their endearing dynamic through the show.

Questions are left hanging, lượt thích how Chang-ho & the others found Do-ha’s stash of the gold and Seo Jae-young’s paper? Why is Gong Ji-hoon given a không tính tiền pass while he was very much a part of the NR Forum? What was the point of mentioning Chairman Kang’s son if he was never going to be on screen?

At the end, one can’t help but feel lượt thích Chang-ho lost all the good he had and settled for a life that he never even wanted. Overall, a badly paced finale that ends a truly thrilling story on a bleak note.
