THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
And so a year after the first episode aired in Japan the last episode has been subbed.

Not sure if i liked the live-Action action ending, i like the idea but if i wanted to see the live-action ending i would have watched the drama (btw, i know that this version of the ending has been filmed for the anime).

Hmm, it was quite difficult to suddenly see the show transition to the live-action scene, but I have to say I liked the way they did it. Nice, soft filters were used. All I can think of is that they must have had some sort of budget crisis, for them not to be able to finish animating? Still, I think the original drama, which I haven't watched, must have had a lot more impact, or it is just the fact that it took almost a year to finish watching the show, so not everything might have been clear at the time of watching. I'll definitely have to rewatch this again some time, as some things still were a bit confusing, or seemed rushed. Like how in the end the fínally met each other again.. yeah.. I don't know.

Still, a decent adaptation, me thinks. 7/10

No, no, no... fanservice for the audience of the original drama.

Definitely not, because it's a completely new scene, that was shot recently with the original actors and thus wasn't featured in the original k-drama ;)

I know, and I think that still must have been cheaper than animating it, perhaps? ;)
But it's a nice decision..

I haven't watched the k-drama, so I was a little bit angry with the final scene.
It's not that I didn't like it, but if I watch the anime version it's because I wanna watch an animated version, not real people =_=

Anwyays.
Great series, I really enjoyed it.

Very cheap ending. Everything about this episode was pretty wrong in the schmaltziest of ways. This probably deserves a 4, but I'll bump it down to a 5 from the 6. It started up so strong, but then concerned itself with twists more than anything else and became highly unsatisfying.

The live action scene at the end seemed unique to add but I guess the animated version would have been better.
Why was Yujina so depressed in the wedding? The facial expression seemed odd. The story was pretty but wanted more intimacy between the main couple.
The reunion was highly touching *sobs*

Because it was so cool out side and she was only wearing that dress LOL

Pretty much what you said. And this is a really weak one for the final episode.

I loved the final scenes. It was really assuring to see that the ex-rivals sincerely wished happiness for the couple. The actors' performance wasn't half bad (taking into account it's Asian drama still, meh). Yujin's dress was gorgeous, I really wish such a dress for my wedding! (A girl is a girl ^^)

Finally, I finished it. I was so teary eyed the last two episodes. What a lovely romance story. I wish I could've watched it all at once though. :']

My eyes teared up when the two met once again; I love how Yujin was always on Joonsang's mind all this time and called her name when the person did not respond to his question.
Sanghyuk actually looked pretty cool in this episode.

The live action was a welcome ending for me. Yujin looked just as beautiful as her anime counterpart. Overall the anime was great since I'm a sucker for romance and drama. It was hard having to pay attention all the time since they spoke Korean but it was definitely worth it.

From what I understand, the drama ending was already different from what the screenwriters had intended it to be in the first place.



It would have been nice if they had used the same actors for all the characters, especially Cherin and Sanghyuk. Sanghyuk...Park Yong Ha..May he rest in peace. However, I understand they used those actors in the ending because they voiced the characters.

I hope more Korean animation is made, even if they just start off by making anime adaptions of dramas, especially since most anime is made in Korea anyway.

I am a kpop fan and an otaku, I plan to watch the drama. I dont think it was a bad idea, but those who watched the drama first would've loved it, as it is nostalgic when the flashback of you crying over the drama version comes to your head

not sure how i felt about the live action ending, but it makes me wanna watch the drama now. im gonna get suckered into it.
i can see why the drama is popular and it's considered to be one that helped launch hallyu. it has every cliche and twist that i expected and seen as someone who's already watched kdramas.
if i had never seen a kdrama before and watched this i'd probably hate it, but since i knew what to expect i actually think its pretty good

this honestly felt like what the first thing would pop up when someone mentions k-drama looooool, for sure filled with a lot of cliches and so much drama

But honestly I didn't really mind it, at least the drama wasn't entirely down to characters being retards, so it was a lot more bearable to watch than other dramas. Though I will admit the twists towards the end (and the overall direction) were kinda popping out of nowhere lmao

I do give credit to the OST, really did make the touching moments feel better. And like someone said I also hoped for some more intimacy between the leads lul
