Ju Ji Hoon Is Handsome As Hell, As Always.

Ju Ji Hoon is handsome as hell, as always.

Fellas, it's getting emotional to the Rohirrim theme time again

When it comes to Hwi and Hui-Jae, I can’t help but feel that he just didn’t want her enough like that to start a life with her. She asked him to. Several times. But Hwi always prioritized his revenge, his sister, his army buddies and his dealings and feelings for his soulmate-nemesis over her.

He could have walked straight to her when he came back from Liaodong, but instead he just let her think he was dead. For four years! And that could have turned into forever if she hadn’t accidentally run into him.

Then he told her he was busy with things, but that she could wait.

However, after he stopped being busy, he skipped town. For six years!

Then he returned, being busy again, and told her again that she could wait.

After he achieved his goals and stopped being busy, he was mostly seen with his old army buddies on his free time. Sometimes feeling blue because his soulmate-nemesis skipped town after he hurt him so badly. This went on for almost two years! During this time one of his old army buddies, who had been as busy as him, had time to court and marry one of Hui-Jae’s friends.

And eventually he became busy again with what Bang-won needing his help and his soulmate-nemesis reappearing and Hwi trying to charm him back.

So, I don’t know, I think he loved her, but maybe more like a friend after the initial crush faded. I want to think that he just never had the heart to tell it to her face rather than leading her on on purpose. She was also his one chance to start a traditional family if he should feel like it one day. It can be hard to close that kind of door permanently. Especially when things at that time were more on the nemesis than soulmate side with Seon-ho.

(To me My Country: The New Age is ultimately a love story between Hwi and Seon-ho. (With some delicious flirting from a prince, softness from a faithful sword wielder and bisexual confusion sprinkled in.) I’ve also given up and started skipping all Hwi & Hui-Jae emotional scenes, because I don’t feel like the chemistry is there and those scenes disrupt the pacing of the main plot. And I just grew tired of seeing those passive tears.)

Am I going to absolutely destroy my eardrums by blasting the part where the horns kick in on Avatar's Love on repeat?

Yes. Yes I am.

I'm sorry, but if you don't think the lotr soundtrack is one of the greatest composed in cinema soundtrack history *reaches for breadbasket and shoves the entire thing into my purse while maintaining very uncomfortable eye contact* you need to leave
