Regardless of what the PD wanted as the ending, to be honest I really liked it. I liked it for the fact that I viewed it as actuality and not Tae Joo’s fantasy. I mean come on he touched her head…twice…what other way is there to tell whether or not you’re dreaming? It doesn’t tell us whether or not they got together afterwards, but it symbolized something significant. That they did after all meet. About the time gap between the bus ride and him walking home, let’s say she rode the bus and stopped at his place before he walked to it, you know. Yeah, but whatever the PD says I think and feel that they got together in the end and started over again.

ohmygoodness, every single time i watch the ending, i want to cry.
it’s so good… the orchestrated music really amplifies the effect they’re trying to give off. amaaaaaaazing.

i personally think it’s reality, but it’s slightly biased because that’s what i want to happen. there were passing cars, another person on the bus too. and it’s not clear whether he immediately went home after the bus stop scene or not, so maybe there was a gap, possibly? either way, if it was reality, that means she openly wants a second chance too, which is pretty heartwarming for me… finishing the drama was almost hard for me because it was so heartwrenching to see their trials.

but, it took a few times of watching the ending for that second chance meaning to sink in… it’s so powerful, complimented by the amazingness of the drama itself.

maybe i’m just easily teary, but it makes me want to cry. ;___;

they end up together. period.

He said “If you look at it literally, you can interpret it in as being more of fantasy…But I think I filmed with the opposite interpretation.”
this shows that he wants us to look at if FIGURATIVELY, in a way that they BELONG together and all those hardships were worth it. Figuratively, it’s reality, it’s what he wants the readers to believe. So my point: no matter what way you view it, the director’s intention was for the viewers to view it as reality.

Wow! I couldn’t believe that there is another possible interpretation to the ending. Before bumping into your website, my interpretation was that both ES and TJ ended up together. After reading the interview excerpt, I still refuse to believe that it’s a fantasy on TJ’s part (cos I’m a sucker for happy endings, no matter how much tears I’ve poured while watching QSS or other kdramas. heh). During TJ’s meet up with Joon Hyuk, I believe TJ has resigned to fate that he could not possibly have another chance with ES cos he mentioned that he and ES had missed the chance of loving each other. That’s how I interpreted the “Whatever will be, will be”, i.e. resigning to fate. However, when he bumped into ES, I guess he does not want to miss the chance of loving her again (who wouldn’t?). Oh well, my 2cents worth.

Awww…. I love this series soooo muchie! Btw, javabeans, I love your website too!

Finally I got to see the last episodes of QSS.
I have to say that it is one of my favourite series, the whole cast was great and I was honestly positively surprised by Erics performance.
About the end, I don’t think it is imagination.
When they talk to each other on the street you see cars driving by and such.
And her waiting outside his apartment.
Eun Soo did ask if he still lives in the same place and it was the first place they met so it was a suitable place to make a fresh start again.

I know you have moved on to CP, Dramabeans (as I have)but the English subs just came out today for Eps 16 and 17 and I couldn’t wait to watch these eps again (Thank you for helping me ride out the wait with your blog!) I noticed that you have the scripts for QSS and wondered if you had read the ending (I don’t read Korean) and if the script has anything to offer for clarification about the real vs. fantasy ending. Probably not but I thought I’d ask.
