I'm the anon that started watching 3 Will Be Free and I came back to say I just finished the series AND I'M A MESS. đ When I tell you I cried when Ter's mom told Mae that no one showed up to his funeral.... Like, I just fucking sobbed at that. đđ Tbh I hate that they killed Ter off, I wish they hadn't done that. đ I love both him and Mae so I wanted a better ending for the two. They wouldn't even need to get together by the end or anything, I would have been satisfied with them just staying in each other's lives. I can't help feeling very bittersweet when it comes to Mae because sure, on one hand she got the surgery she wanted, but on the other she's literally so alone now, she has absolutely no one in her life and (judging by the outfit she had on the last time we see her) still working at that horrible diner. Don't know how I feel about the decision to have her be the one to shoot Shin's dad either. Obviously, I completely understand why she hated him and wanted him dead but idk... She's been trying to get Ter to stop killing people (she clearly hated that kind of violence) but then the show had her kill someone as her last scene. It didn't entirely sit right with me for her character.
bestie, I was holding my fucking tongue not to tell you to prepare tissues bc that fucking scene??? ENDED ME ;_; like, as I said recently my holy trinity of pain is 1) popoat not ending up together at the end of wtd final call one day before my birthday, 2) ter's death in 3wbf, 3) the entire last two eps of not me :'))) I also really disliked ter's death, bc usually thai dramas are all about giving redemptions to those who don't even deserve it & have had no growth, whereas it's so clear that ter was forced into the hitman life bc of his extremely poor background, and honestly his whole character could be great commentary about the exploitation of the poor. I don't condone the things he has done, especially about killing neo's boss at the bar who really didn't deserve it, but he had clearly started bettering himself and I think his death was written more for shock value & to push mae to kill shin's dad in the last ep than anything else, which I hate. like mae is literally one of the only good trans characters in thai dramas that got a love story & an interesting character development, so the fact that she ends up losing the one man who cares for her AGAIN... fucking sucks. this whole storyline was definitely my least favorite from the whole show, even though I still love this show so much & consider it one of the most important and groundbreaking thai dramas out there.
