Penultimate Episode 11 of See You in My 19th Life Reveals the Real Life/Death Conflict in the 1st Life Setting the Stage for a Cathartic Ending
So there is a Chinese saying that to untie a bell one needs the person who tied the bell (解鈴還須繫鈴人) which means that to resolve a problem one needs the person who caused it in the first person to do so. See You in My 19th Life turns out to be exactly that. Ji Eum’s memory spanning reincarnations came from her own wishing it so, as curse so that she can remember her revenge in a future life and slay the person who killed her own sister. But then she set things in motion to begin with and said sister was inevitably going to die anyways, so its really up to her to let go. Turns out Min Ki is both her past mortal enemy and likely her present savior. And the drama has done a great job with that, even Seo Ha has received solace for the car accident and learned the truth and accepted it, Ji Eum needs to realize that revenge means nothing in a subsequent life because everyone else is now a different person. I really enjoyed the philosophical and familial emotional aspects of this drama and really wish the core OTP romance made me feel something and hopefully the final episode tomorrow can bring about the true happy ending some of these characters have earned.
I love this drama and enjoyed it so far. Hoping for a happy ending
The story did pick up from Ep. 11 but its a little too late as the ratings plummetted to its lowest so far. After watching this ep, my biggest takeaway is Shin Hye Sun. She is the one woman powerhouse in the show and ep. 11 truly showed what a great actress she is. Looking forward to tonights closing episode. Dun think its a drama worth rewatching but SHS has definitely kept me on as a fan inspite of this uninspiring outing.
Oddly, this episode was the one since the debut that really caught me . I wasn’t one of the ones who criticize Ahn Bo hyun as for me he is a good actor, and in this ep he was good and finally had good chemistry with Shin Hye Sun . The same for Shin Hye Sun, she looks much more beautiful with dark hair . It may be trivial, but the light brown color was disturbing for me . Here i find the Shin Hye Sun i like .
Yes I have the same trivial gripe about hair colors not suiting actors and actresses lol. Shin Hye Sun seems to be a Summer type in the color season system typing, and that’s why she looks best with her natural hair color (cool-toned and dark but kind of in an faded, ashy way, if that makes sense). Her hair color here is the opposite, it’s light and warm, and that’s why it doesn’t suit her and washes her out, making her look kinda sickly. This is just my very humble, non-expert opinion, of course.
On the other hand, actresses like Yoo In Ah, who seems to be a Spring type, looks GREAT in her usual light, bright, and warm hair color, she actually looks like she’s born with it! Also, Lee Sung Kyung, I think, is an Autumn type (another warm-toned type), so she also looks best in her usual light warm brown dyed hair, to the point that it looks jarring to see her with black hair lmao
Exactly, i found someone who understood me .As i said , she remembers me of Yoon Eun Hye who has the same color hair and it doesn’t suit her either , she looks sickly and older . Darker hair a contrario makes them look younger and energetic. I agree with your comments about Yoo In Ah and Lee Sung Kyung . I’m not an expert but i can’t picture them with dark air .
