Happy Ending

I have never, I repeat, never felt so attached to a drama, let alone a Korean drama. 

A week after I gave up on my dream, Good Doctor started airing on TV. I never watched any medical dramas. Or Korean dramas. I mean yeah, I watched Korean dramas before when I was 9 or 10, and not after every teen in this country started to go crazy about them.

The final episode was aired just now, and thinking about how this drama greatly distracted me from my self-pity makes me feel so sad that after this there'll be no more fan-girl screaming and hand-flapping and awwwws and ahhhhs in front of the TV. It's like finishing a good book, and smiling alone on how the storyline and characters impacted you. 

But of course it wasn't only because of Joo Sang Wook's character. The irony is after I told the whole world I have no heart to finish what I started but to start anew, Good Doctor reminded me again and again about my unfinished journey. Two former classmates who (previously) were in the same boat as me had recently continued walking in the paths of their dreams, holding on tightly (and independently) to what they started in the first place, unlike me. Another friend pursued his lifelong passion in Computer Science. (And I'm here, counting Honey Stars).

And I'm like, "My goodness, this drama understands me."

In the final episode (unrelated to the photo above, to you folks who missed this drama), it's just remarkable to see Kim Dohan treating Park Shion like a real big bro. This drama is the best I've watched, just because of the message of letting go, forgiveness, love, second chances, and so many more I think if I list them all up I would sound so sickeningly immature, trying to act philosophical. 

So that's how a Korean drama impacted my life this August - October 2013.

Keep calm, dream again, plan B always works. ;)
