Episode 24 preview

Go give your thanks to crybabytt!

Preview here. Preview the second, here. (They’re the same, but one’s on youtube, and the other one’s in Chinese.)

I’ll be back with textual and scene interpretation later. (So much info, and not enough understandability.)

Text summary:

Battle breaks, GD shouts: Let’s end this!

YN is seen running around between the two - she gives messages to CH from GD. CH doesn’t want her to a) go to GD b) put herself in danger c) be killed as part of the rebellion. (OR all three, I can’t tell.)

There is fighting, though I only see flashes of SG among the mess.

CH is in a war tent à la Mongolian - possible siege situation. YN persuading him not to do something. She’s arguing with both GD and CH, at different times.

GD is lightly injured, she tends to him in his room at the mountain. They hug, and it looks like night out there.

Right now there are two main theories running amok on the Chinese forums (creating no small amount of distress, I might add):

1. Enok will die - HM says this in 12 (in the event she goes back to GD), and 23 has been peppered with references to death in her conversations with both boys. Even I’ve noticed.

2. GD travels to the future, where his ideas are somewhat realized. Really not sure on this one.

[EDIT]: Jess, soruyo, iurgnotmis, JaneSc: I really wish YN doesn’t die either. In fact, I want her to make both guys (but especially GD) realize how stupid and testosterone-filled they’re being. I also hope the writers don’t pull that YN-promises-to-stay-with-CH-to-keep-GD-safe crap, first because it demeans their struggles, and second because it would be plain stupid. (Plus, how would they resolve that satisfactorily in one episode??)

I think the first episode is still to come, due to certain hairstyle hints . It almost feels like they’re prepping us for an unhappy ending, so it may be that they’re trying to trick us. 

And since CH doesn’t have any heirs yet, I assume he lives through this.

Wednesday really can’t come fast enough.

Love,

Sevenses

P.S. Since I’ve gotten several instances of people looking for Hong Gil Dong episode #25 - this show ends at 24, which is to say, March 26. There is a special, consisting of interviews, fun stuff and NGs, but the plot, the story, the thing that’s been making me scream with frustration (at its lack sometimes) for the past few weeks - ends on 24. This public service announcement is now over. Thank you.
