– I love how 30 minutes are spared in this episode for closures. Not your usual a neat bow and happy ever after which will be so inconsistent with the whole storytelling. It is the emotional closures, and the sense of seeking calmness after the storm. There’s sufficient coverage of the three sisters though not being together. They are like us as audience experiencing that void but on the recovery journey.
– It’s been said so many times – but the writing, directing, acting, music and cinematography are all a joy to watch. The sense of void is so intensely felt as credits roll because I don’t know when will a drama of this calibre come again.
– While everyone is playing A game but Uhm Ji-won’s portrayal here is seriously performance of the year. The chill she sends down our spine while maintaining that half innocent, half wickedness demeanor is really quite something.
– I love, love the three sisters’ growth. They are essentially the same persons in the final episode but a bit wiser and very importantly, know better now what they’d value most and family remains their bedrock. The flashback in the last 30 minutes is really well done.
– What a pleasant surprise that ‘Jo’ and ‘Laurie’ have a happy ending.
– And, how can I get that musical score out of my head???

Re-watch is a must as there is still so much to unpack. A few immediate thoughts:

“Directed by woman, written by woman with women as protagonists, main villain, and mastermind. I’m so proud as a woman. Thank you, Little Women!!”
This comment at YT is so true. All the men in this drama are sitting in the backseats.
