I’ll Find You on A Beautiful Day ~ the final episode. I want to weigh in on the ending of this drama because I was so worried that the heaviness of two generations couldn’t be fixed. Maybe fixed isn’t the right word, perhaps lifted is better. How many final K-drama episodes have been anti-climactic or a letdown? In this case, I was prepared for a sad ending, but I was pleasantly surprised. I was relieved. And happy. It was as if decades of violent storm dust that had churned and thickened and choked Hye-Won’s family finally – FINALLY – settled. After it seemed impossible that it would. A lie, many lies, meant to protect Myung-Yeo and Hye-Won created a stifling distance that only the hidden truth could cut through. But once the truth was unleashed, the family and the entire town that had been affected on the peripheral was made right(er). Like settling dust that brings calm and those affected can look around, assess their surroundings, and brush off and move on. I loved that everyone could move on. And Eun-Seob? Well, his story that seemed prominent in the beginning and put him on shaky ground, also worked its way through the cycle of cosmic pulls and pushes. Really, it was a very nice – in the good sense – ending. My heart felt warm and stable.
