Moon Lovers 1 Year Anniversary Week August 28th: ‘When You Knew’

I was wondering which scene to use, since I couldn’t pin point in my mind at which point I knew I was trash for this show, until I remembered Aisha’s tags: #I CAN HEAR ANISAH HOWLING when she giffed this scene; and I think this was the moment for me. 

Just watching Wang So broke me completely, in this one scene you see what an outsider he is, you see how much affection he has, you see how badly he wants to be a part of it, and you see how much he knows he can’t. 

It’s a slow process even before he begins to smile - first he tries to look away and mind his own business, but he can’t help but smile at his brothers’ antics and its so sweet knowing such a simple moment caused his ‘dog wolf’ facade to break. Which then makes the moment where he and Wook meet eyes, all the more heartbreaking - as if Wook’s attention on him is a reminder that he’s not allowed to share this joy.

So yeah, this was when I knew. Happy One Year Anniversary Moon Lovers!

Dropping the Mask

Wang So’s final moment in the story with him REVEALING HIS SCAR really does complete his journey in many, poignant ways - from covering his scar to revealing it, from self-loathing to acceptance. The last moment when the audience sees Wang So’s scar for the one last time is a direct parallel to the time when we and Hae Soo saw it for the first time - back then he was ashamed of it, back then he tried to cover it and to hide it - it made him immensely self-conscious and vulnerable. Back then, he was looking at Hae Soo and this time his piercing gaze once again belongs to HS even if she isn’t there. It’s as if So was able to look through the space and time separating them and find her in the future, just like he is promising her that he will one day.

This time we get the same extreme close-up of his face - but he isn’t self-conscious nor vulnerable anymore. I’ve read some comments that Wang So couldn’t love himself the way he was until the very end, but that’s not true - HE IS ABLE TO ACCEPT HIMSELF JUST THE WAY HE IS, BE IT HIS SCAR, HIS FEELINGS, HIS FAILURES, HIS ACTIONS. And even without HS by his side he’s able to become of one the greatest kings in the Korean history, even with all the terrible things that happened to him, even with all his scars.

Yes it definitely did!!❤️
