Rookie Historian Finale :
527-FC987-F465-4-BE9-8-B83-E3-EDFE1849-F0
As this drama comes to an end, I realize what a wonderful journey it has been. This drama had heart.

It managed to carefully tread many topics – women’s rights, women in workplace, new thinking in a world, privilege and power, a women’s choice of life/marriage etc, without ever sounding preachy or in your face. The show did have the fluff yet with meaning and depth. There was not a single character that felt unnecessary. As the drama progressed we understood every single character and all of them were memorable. Be in Yang or Min or our Rookies. They all stood strong by themselves. They were not created to serve someone’s purpose.

I am happy with the way the show wrapped up. The dethroned king gets to clear his name, and Jin does what he is best at -rule and Rim is a travel blogger, like me, with no readers/visitors 🙂
And our historians are writing history while quietly creating their own history.

    Yes to all of this! The reasons why I love this show.
    Although I feel the conflicts are resolved a bit too easily, I’m really happy with the ending. The characters got to live the life they wanted, especially Rim who is living his dream life.

      I too thought the conflicts got resolved quickly, but I also think it’s been brewing for a long time. Queen Dowager has been spear heading this whole thing. With or without Dowon she would have gone ahead with her plan.
      I think it’s a decent closure and am happy. Glad it didn’t end a tragedy 🙂
