I was boycotting the fan wall this week bc I was too busy, and I didn’t want spoilers for the finale of When the Camellia Blooms… but I finally just finished it!

The final week went unexpectedly better than I thought.
It was still quite enjoyable and a had a nice (albeit, convenient) farewell vibe to it, and I liked the final sentiment of miracles just being the total sum of luck that’s owed to you.

Some issues about the second half of the show that I have a bone to pick with were offhandedly resolved, but not satisfyingly enough for me (I guess I’ll vent about that in the recaps).

But all in all, I really liked this show and I’d give it an 8/10 for all the things it DID do right.
At its core, this was an exploration of human relationships; and this lil gem of a show portrayed it with apt intensity, compassion and grace.
For that I will miss it. 😭💖🌹🌈
