He says to the gods, “I will stay in this place. Shin cries as he remembers Eun-tak and the moment he realized he’d make this choice. “But there were tears in the goblin’s eyes,” she says. Samshin Granny narrates over the scene that his punishment was over now, and that he should close his eyes and rest at peace. This is you, being considerate? I’d hate to know what the mean version is. Butterfly-god says that Shin has been erased from the minds of everyone who knew him, and that this is a consideration from god. Fade to black.Ī butterfly lands in a vast snowy tundra, and a lone figure stands in the distance-it’s Shin, back to his original form as the Goryeo warrior. Tears fall as she writes the last words, and she clutches the notebook close, sobbing and trying desperately to remember. She frantically starts writing to herself: Oh noooooo, is he being erased entirely? Every trace of him?Įun-tak seems to sense that Shin is fading from every memory they shared, literally disappearing from the scene as she remembers it, so she scrambles to her bag to grab pen and paper. The writing in Shin’s diary starts to disappear, and even the scribble he added in Eun-tak’s book of poems-”It was first love”-starts to burn off the page. We also see Eun-tak’s friend the class president, and the ajusshi who was Shin’s second-in-command in Goryeo. He scatters into the wind before her eyes, and she collapses to the ground in tears.Ī strange sensation passes through Deok-hwa in that moment, and Sunny and Secretary Kim too. Shin says his final goodbyes in Eun-tak’s arms, and the fire from his heart spreads until he’s nothing but fire and ash. The show didn’t seem to suffer ratings-wise either, as it hit a new high at 17.5% today. Narratively speaking, the show benefitted from having this episode delayed a week, to give loss and heartache a chance to feel like it had taken root in our characters’ lives. It’s been a long week and an even longer wait for our characters, but my biggest fears have been assuaged and I feel good about where we’re headed for the final two episodes. 225 JanuThe Lonely Shining Goblin: Episode 14 by girlfriday
