Saying Farewell and Disembarking the May Queen Ride

I’m out folks! Strangely I’m not upset or anything, probably because I knew it was inevitable plus I got plenty of happy beforehand so it was all worth it. This weekend’s May Queen finally drove the wedge between Chang Hee and Hae Joo with his discovery of his father’s role in her birth father’s death (and not even that his father also mowed her adoptive father down, which is like pouring acid on an open wound). At the end of episode 16, Chang Hee asks Hae Joo to break up, and unlike the last time when she tried to break up with him and he kissed her into boating their angst away, this time I’m sure it’ll stick. Mostly because this drama is almost halfway done and the writers have to get on a move on in transferring Hae Joo’s affections over to Kang San. I totally accept that San is the better, saner, healthier choice for her as a long term partner, but I find him as interesting as a slightly loopy puppy plus there is no way I will abandon the Chang Hee-Hae Joo ship when they are in love with each other and can’t be together because of circumstances beyond their control. As opposed to him turning evil. So that means I’m ending my MQ ride now and retaining all my happy shippy Chang Hee-Hae Joo moments from the first half of the drama. I love their childhood love story, and the adult portions were as good as I had hoped, with them dating, being so warm and affectionate with each other, and busting out the passionate romance when the situation called for it. However the drama ends, I got what I wanted out of it and for that it was time well spent. I’ll disembark with a cute picture of Jae Hee being goofy on the set and an MV below of my preferred OTP falling in love.

I love how my OTP got so many happy and lovey dovey moments together before the mean scriptwriter tore them apart. 😛 In my heart of hearts, they’ve eloped to Jeju and is running a little marina boat shop together while Chang Hee becomes mayor of their little town and they have 3 kids. The end.

May Queen “First Love”:

  • I like your ending! :)) I said goodbye to May Queen last weekend and I'm not angry or anything. For me the highlight was the first part of this drama because the child actors were sooo good.

    Can't wait to see them all in different dramas again. :)

  • This drama is funny: Everyone watches it for different reasons and take what they want from it. It's a self-service show with quite good ratings actually (n°2 & 20.8% for episode 15). At least producers and channel must be happy.

  • Funny - I got off last week when I thought my ship (I am Team San) wasn't going to happen, but I am not getting back on just because this drama is so makjang, once I finally got myself free, I am reluctant to go back. It's like a bad habit :)

  • I am very happy that so far everyone is enjoying this drama and hope some of us watch to till end. I am really behind.. I am still on episode 4 of the childhood part.... I am still Sanjoo shipper so I hoe lots of tons HOT chemistry and skin ship and LOTS of HOT Kisses...

    In another note, Is it Wednesday yet and Koala Unni, have you watched Ohlala spouses yet..

  • Dun da da da dun, goodbye to romance~

    I'm suddenly shipping Haejoo's sister and Il Moon. I think they got fantastic chemistry :3.

    Anyways, I still really like both guys, so I don't really care who she ends up with....BUT how slow the storyline is going is really irritating me. By now I was hoping Changhee went evil. Because I bet $5 that the next 3-4 episodes will center on how depressing Haejoo and Changhee are apart. =_=. Like get to the good stuff already! The plot froze ever since the kids grew up. (Well since ep 4 to be exact)

    Still hanging onto this. I think I can survive. Dropped all the other dramas I was watching. Maybe I should start Nice Guy.

  • ahah i like your ending. Well I dropped it a long time ago. I still liked the cute love story at the beginning with the child. Bye bye May Queen!
