Goodness knows Yeong-Do hasn't been contributing much to the main plot lately. This is a storyline shift that should have come up a long time ago. He shifts away from his Eun-Sang obsession into.something way more interesting than the Eun-Sang obsession, actually. Yeong-Do's subplot also takes a weird turn. But when he runs into trouble we're supposed to.feel sorry for him? We've all been watching the same drama, right? The one where he's clearly been psychologically setting his sons against each other so that the most ruthless cutthroat one will finally take the reins of the company? We're supposed to be feel sorry for him? Basically any other character looks good contrasted to Kim Nam-Yoon, and it's frankly inexplicable that the people whose emotions he's been messing with the most are the ones who are now taking his side. Kim Nam-Yoon has, even by the generally low standards of wealthy corporate types, been a pretty awful person. The drama also makes a rather bizarre switcheroo close to the end. It's just that other characters are more willing to tolerate it now for some reason. At this point it's really just kind of depressing realizing that Kim Tan's behavior hasn't really changed. The effect might be a pleasant one, for someone who enjoys watching the cute Kim Tan / Eun-Sang antics- but for me the enjoyment factor in those scenes went out several episodes ago. "The Heirs" has been zigzagging all over the place in terms of light-hearted funtime episodes versus the serious ones. However, the more of this cute stuff that we see, the more the question comes up of how appropriate it is for the only apparent conflict in this drama to be deflated so close to the end.

When the drama loses its pretensions and just lets its teen characters act like real teenagers, it can be fairly successful as light entertainment. Even the abrupt ending of Kim Tan confronting his father with Eun-Sang in tow is pretty fun. Young Do, my heart will always be with you.There's lot of cuteness here as we get a bright cheery look at Kim Tan's birthday party, where all his friends have shown up and are having a gay old time taking pictures and doing basic teen stuff. Since we have been left in the dark for so long about his mother, it is about time we seem something conclusive in regards to what happened to her. He has been dealing with too much crap recently, and hopefully everything ends up well with the mother. I do hope that everything turn out alright for everyone, especially Young Do. What will happen between Young Do and his mother? What is Hyo Shin honestly hinting on? Is the relationship between Won and Hyun Joo actually going to survive? How is the conflict between evil mother and the Jeguk family/company going to turn out?ĭo you see large amounts of questions? I honestly have no idea who this drama is going to end, but I have one last comment to make about it if it ends up being similar to this episode, as in being something with not much shock and punch-factor, then this will be the most tiring journey I have ever taken. Through the preview, we are given plenty of things to ponder upon. No huge threat is introduced into the episode, and instead we are given hints here and there as to how the grand finale will be. So, this episode lacked that punch we usually see during the second last episode of any drama. In the end, it actually turned out like this…being so close yet far They are both far yet close, bringing that unspeakable understanding of emotions onto that rooftop. In the final scene of the episode, we see that both sons share that pain which speaks volumes through that silent no-word scene. We see evil tyrant father collapse into a coma (no surprises there) and violent tyrant father is suspected of some sort of criminal activity (probably something to do with taxes), leading to the possibility of him getting arrested, which doesn’t sit well for both sons involved. In the end, these are parents who have done everything in their power to build an empire fit for a king, which they expect to be their own children. They have been through enough to understand that their lives suck as it is, but in this episode, they realise that their parents are just as sensitive and fragile as they are. So, we see the downfall and collapse (literally) of both Kim Tan and Young Do’s fathers, and instantly our hearts go out to them. Both fathers of the story fall, and both sons end up as collateral damage The evil mother finally shows her real claws…was it too late though?Ħ.
