Everglow (2020) ‘빛나는 순간’ dir. So Joon-moon

[10underoot2]

I thought I would have so much to say about the car accident scene. And while I could go on for a while on why it's everything I've ever wanted from a scene of this nature and why it's a beautifully acted cinematic piece, I do think the beauty of the scene lies so much in silence. Their expressions are do a fantastic job to express their emotional state so I'm just gonna call attention to a few things I won't get over anytime soon.

Imagine being Haein and seeing your husband wrecking a car window in hysteria. Imagine seeing disbelief on his face when he sees you and walks towards you. Imagine watching him unable to breathe properly (sound on and high for this scene). Imagine seeing life flood into him as soon as you touch him.

Jiwon plays such an important part here. Because Haein has NEVER seen Hyunwoo like this. He's a pretty calm nice, non-violent guy. She knows him to like mostly everyone and he rarely gets angry - he's pretty composed. But then what is this look of complete shattered pain on his face? With a mix of disbelief, bearing the heaviest heart on the planet? He's unrecognisable to her. She can't make sense of any of his actions. She's in utter shock hearing how hardly any air is making it's way into his lungs.

In his eyes is a look of crazed wilderness just tamed. He's out of his sense. Completely lost in the events that have just passed. Not believing that he can breathe. That it's okay. All is well in the world for now. She's unscathed.

'What's going on? Calm down.'

The way she asks him to calm down - touching his face - cause she just doesn't know what in the world could send him in such a frenzy to forget himself. Her asking him to calm down here is everything to me. She's really just saying I'm here okay. Calm down. Calm down, you can breathe. Tell me what happened and I can fix it.

'Even still, Are you crazy? How could you break the window with your bare hands? Look at this!'

I know it probably didn't register to him at that point. But he's hearing her being worried for him again when he thought her lost forever. Wouldn't that sound like music to his ears.

And her...god she's so worried for him. She's never seen him like this. She doesn't know what happened to make him like this. One she sees his absolutely broken bloody hand. Two she's seeing her husband absolutely crushed. She's so confused.

That is until his words hit her like a truck. I think she had an idea that he did it to save her but she didn't know he did it because he thought her dead. And that makes all the difference for her.

Also I thought it was very interesting to keep showing his injured hand clenching. I think it was a way to show how the physical pain still didn't hold a candle to his emotional turmoil. He CLENCHES that broken hand multiple times. I can't even begin to think when he actively registered the pain.

The need for constant touch to reaffirm that she indeed is there. The sitting down. The head on her hand. The heavy breathing. *Chef's kiss*

I love women comforting the man they love when he's broken. Gah! That hand on his face and hug. Her embracing him. Letting him cry all he wants. Giving him the reaffirmation he needs by placing her self as close to him as possible. Trying to tame and override his sense. The hand on the nape of his neck. The hand caressing his hair lovingly. And good god, the RINGS.

Also notice his breathing on her shoulder. He's trying to calm himself. Telling himself she's here. Hearing her say it's alright. Everything will be alright.

I'm sure they stay like this until the ambulance comes and asks them if they're hurt. Only then Haein must've gently tore him apart from her (hand on his face again ofcourse) and convinced/guided him to finally get treatment. I can just Imagine Hyunwoo completely dishevelled going, 'Huh *sniffs*......oh.......Right, my hand' and that's when the pain hits him.

Special mention to the hospital conversation when Haein asks him 'Will you sob like this if I die?' and he says truthfully, bashfully, embarrassed but without missing a beat 'Ofcourse.' He's hiding behind nothing. He truly meant to give up on himself after her.

For me this is also the night Haein starts to write her diary. Hyunwoo must've been sound asleep, amped up on painkillers and she must've had so much time to sit and admire him and write.

I don't run after men but when he's a lawyer, a boxer, can shoot guns and most importantly has 35 cows, I might jog a little.

Queen of Tears 눈물의 여왕 (2024) - Episode 1

[teashh]

I absolutely love Queen of Tears. Great acting. Great plot. Love the comedy. And it is also bringing out the internalised Misogyny of people. I see people hating on Hae in. And I don't think people understand that this is a typical CEO romance and the only thing that has changed is the gender. Which means all the things you're hating Hae In for; like lack of communication, noticing the lover after some major changes etc etc, are the same things you see in a man and you go "oh my gods he was in so much pain 🥺".

Because Hae in is a typical chaebol. The only difference is she's a woman now. And you expect her to be more nurturing, more caring, more communicative than the man. And that's why you hate her. Big deal people. She's human. She has her flaws. We're seeing her character grow.

Do better people!

the look in hae in's eyes when hyun woo comes to help her with the copy machine, the confusion mixed with intrigue and admiration,

the look in hae in's eyes when she sees hyun woo at the bus stand and then in the bus from her car during that one epilogue, the sheer adoration and love reflected in them, the textbook epitome of "heart eyes",

the look in hae in's eyes every time hyun woo mentions how he has 36 cows and a lot of land and a brand new apartment and just enough to provide for her so that she never has to work again in her life, the disbelief that he'd think she is that dependent, the disbelief that a person could readily love another person so grandly,

the look in hae in's eyes when hyun woo moves to the nursery after the miscarriage, the hurt fighting to burst through as tears and the anger stuck in her throat as she thinks that he blames her for the miscarriage, the break in her heart and the first flash of hopelessness between their breaths,

the look in hae in's eyes every time they pass each other at the department store, the way she looks at hyun woo like she never wants to look away, the yearning in her eyes that make her fingers twinge with the dire need to reach out to him,

the look in hae in's eyes when she discovers the divorce papers, the raw pain that wants to be comforted by hyun woo, the pang of betrayal that would go away if he just says that she is mistaken, the gasps that her heart takes because it can't just beat anymore after discovering that the one person she trusted and loved to no bounds could do this to her, but also the slight understanding that hyun woo has also been suffering from the countless instances of miscommunication between them and that he doesn't deserve to be stuck in such a relationship

the look in hae in's eyes when she sees hyun woo at the prison in episode 15, the familiarity and the comfort of home, the difficulty in breathing from seeing the love of her life and being unaware of it, the torment from hurting him although she doesn't understand it,

the look in hae in's eyes when in the last episode, she comes to hyun woo as his beautiful angel to take him to their forever happiness, the knowing that they have made it, that they deserve each other despite all obstructions, that not even death could do them apart, the warmth of falling asleep on a hard day's night, the relief of drinking water in the middle of the night, the contentment of being able to love and being able to be loved in peace at last.
