haiZ.
tml is the last ep of my fave show Jumong..
sObx and it's kinda a sad ending~
Jumong's love life is like a shipwreck shall i say
which is kinda sad for a man who has everything. lOlx.
Here's his love life in summary:
Jumong played by Song Il GookJumong was formerly a prince of a country Bu Yeo, brought up by his foster father King Geum Wa & his real mother Lady Yuh-Hwa..
Soseno played by Han Hye JinWhen he was a prince, he met Soseono, daughter of a merchant trade & Chief of a tribe & fell in love with her.
If I'm Jumong I will love her very much toO lOlx.
She is a extremely beautiful, capable, strong & smart girl.
However, after a war, Jumong was reported missing & or even dead..
Soseono who was also admired by Jumong's brother Dae-Soh wanted to marry her (and even forced her to or he'll wipe out her tribe).
She had no choice but to marry her own bodyguard because she still griefs for Jumong and she clearly does not want an evil guy as her husband.
Yesoya played by Song Ji HyoJumong was able to get back to the palace many months later due to the help of a tribal chief's daugher, Yesoya (played by Goong's supporting actress who was Shin's ex lover) who saved him and whose father was later killed by rebels.
soO in order to repay her kindness and Jumong was all she had, Jumong brought her back to Bu Yeo Palace & when he found out Soseono was already married, he married Yesoya..
OMG.
oOkie.
Many stuff happened but in short, Jumong decided to embark on a quest to recover the lost lands of Korea (to fulfill's his biological father's dream) which were at that time owned by the Han empire.
Feeling increasingly insecure, the King Geum Wa decided to hold his mother, Yesoya & Yuri (Jumong's son) hostage on the pretext of protecting them.
soO Jumong built his empire with the help of Soseono (who at that time already had 2 children and her husband had died). When he founded Gogouryeo, his mother had already died and Yesoya & Yuri was reported dead when they tried to escape the Bu Yeo palace.In order to not break the 2 opposing ends (his army & Soseno's army), Jumong married his ex-lover.
10 yrs past and nearing the end of the show, Yesoya and Yuri was found. Soseono wants to give up her title as the Queen to Yesoya
(Soseono is doing something women today won't be able: giving up the husband to another woman)who refuses because without her, Gogouryeo wouldn't be what it is today.
Okie the ending sucks.
After the war with Han empire ended and Gogouryeo was victorious, Soseono took her both sons and left the country because she knows that is the only way the country wouldn't be divided and Yesoya and Yuri wouldn't be threatened.
The giving up of the title is a tricky one as we cannot say Soseono is the 'mistress' after she is Jumong's actual lover but because he was thought to be dead, the r/s ended. However, Yesoya's Jumong's real and first wife..
lOlx.
it makes me question even in dramas, how heaven makes sport of people..
it's like marrying ur ex girlfriend whom you loved very much only to realise your dead wife is alive.
