#ae sin

74. Eugene brings Baron Kuroda into the cabin, stopping the Japanese soldiers. Him: "You should take a step forward. I will take a step back." He made the soldiers go into the caboose and shot so that the caboose would separate from the rest of the train. She cried after him as he was being shot.

75. A letter he wrote before their trip to Japan: "By the time this letter reaches you, I probably won't be in Joseon anymore. Tomorrow, we're going to Japan together. I think that will be how we part ways. No matter where you were headed, I wanted to stand right in front of you. But I did not know that parting ways with you was what was ahead of me. Every step I took with you... meant everything to me. Every moment I spent with you... was like a picnic to me. In English, it's spelled as 'picnic.' It starts with a 'P.'" Are you still working on protecting Joseon? I hope you are. Go Ae Shin was a very passionate woman. And Go Ae Shin was the woman I deeply loved. Well then. Goodbye." (ep. 24)

Ae-Sin: “No.”

Me:

Eugene: “Maybe it was the beginning of revenge. Or the end of jealousy.”

Ae Sin: “What do you mean by the beginning of revenge? Is it against me?”

Eugene: “Do you understand what I meant by the end of jealousy?”

Ae Sin: I considered it a confession of love. The second one. Am I wrong? Was it the third?”

Eugene: “When did you start counting?”

Ae Sin: “Since you said “protecting you.”

idk what the name is supposed to reference but it is so beautiful visually? Even if it were terrible I would watch it just for the cinematography but the acting and characters for the most part are really good (I don’t like Kyle but whatever)...and Ae-Sin is the female protagonist I feel like I’ve been waiting for the whole time? Badassery and personal agency/ making the first move 🙌
