On this episode of Heirs:
Another Battle for
Votes, 12 Steps for a recovering Bully, brothers UNITE (YAY!!!), Army is
calling, Breaking up with a "Dear News article", and the Crown goes to ...
Young Do’s father
going to jail for his cheating is karma. Young Do’s father spent most of the
drama teaching Young Do to cheat at every turn until he gets caught. Sure it
was the Lawyer who told Young Do there are rules and not to cheat but I want to
hope it was dear daddy learning from his mistake. But I like this Young Do
trying to make amends for his wrongs by finding Joon Young to apologize. Joon
Young was the kid Young Do bullied at school episodes ago. Points to the Drama
for having Joon Young not accept his apology. I’m glad the Drama didn’t sweep how
scary of a bully Young Do was under a rug. The things Young Do did to Joon
Young were horrible. Young Do has a long way to go to be forgiven for the vile
things he did not just to Joon Young but to all the other people he bullied.
Hyo Shin going to
the army is kind of sad yet it is the only thing his parents can’t stop. For
the first time, he will be able to think for himself without worrying his
parents will be demanding him to do this or that. Rachel and Hyo Shin were adorable
to watch and a shame it took so long for these two characters to grow. Another
dent in this Drama was spending way to much time on the repeat love/hate triangle
and not on the million of side character for filler.
Eun Sang forgiving
her sister I am not sure if I would. I mean her sister is kind of a bitch. She
lied to both mom and her sister about her “marriage” for her to get money. With
the debt Mom already had, Eun Sang’s sister knew that money was everything and
still took it. Sure family helps each other but not on a lie. Sure Mom knew she
was probably lying but that is no excuse. Sorry but the girl turned her back on
her family when things got hard. Yes, Eun Sang tried to do the same thing but
sadly was unable to really leave. May Eun Sang forgive her sister because if
she didn’t leave to America to find her she wouldn’t have met Tan. It would
take time for me to forgive her.
Won you didn’t tell
Hyun Joo about your Business Marriage. I guess this is the new “Dear John”
letter. Won you’re a bastard for telling
her this way. This makes me wonder if you ever loved Hyun Joo. What the hell
were you thinking by waiting for her to read the news instead of telling her
face to face? HECK, why did she have to use he wish to break up. Jerk!!! I don’t
care what crown you’re wearing, you do not treat someone you love like that.
Good thing you don’t love your business wife. I guess Karma does come back to
bite you.

As you all can tell, I do not have a love for this drama nor
do I hate it with a passion. Mostly, I
believe when I finish this episode, do my Twit-Review, I will put Heirs out of my mind. There wasn’t a
point in the Drama’s run, I couldn’t wait for it to be uploaded. I love me some
fluff Dramas (Lie To Me, Heartstrings,
Nail Shop Paris). Yet I couldn’t find a bit of fluff or ridicules parts for
me to hold onto and fall in love with the drama. I really just don’t care about
Heirs. Unlike Marry Him if You Dare, I wanted so much more out of it and I‘m still
thinking about the Drama to this moment. Damn you Drama Gods for your crappy
ending!!!
I still can’t say
for sure what the story of the Drama was supposed to be about. I wasn’t shock
when the last 5 episodes start to move into hyper drive and FINALLY stop
beating the dead horse. After 20 episodes the drama had no conflict. .
How did Tan and Eun Sang fix in with crowns and castles? Chairman Dad wasn’t really a villain nor was
Won, or Young Do. The attack of the evil parents came and went in a matter of
episodes. Yet here we are in episode 20, where did all the parents get those
happy pills? Or did they become robots because that would explain a lot. I tell
you all Skynet is going to take over … maybe it is starting in our
Dramas.
Most of what happen in the last 5 episodes SHOULD have
happen episodes ago. Writing a script during production can be a good thing and
not. I get the writers want to adjust if fans like something more. But the
problem with writing and shooting the scene at the same time the plot can
become lost or forgotten. The plot should be outline for each episode to keep
the Drama’s attention. Sometimes I think the Drama goes on a tangent and
forgets the point.
For Heirs, it was
bloated with its own ego before it started production. Why the writer wanted to
write about teenagers when they weren’t teenagers? Did the writer want to show
how mess up teenagers can become when they don’t get to act like kids? The idea
of a modern day sageuk drama was an interesting one but the Drama either didn’t
see the potential of the story or forgot it. The Drama must have seen the Silence.
Than you have a million side characters with a few minutes here and there.
Which again, what was the point of having so many extra characters? The writer
may have wrapped up all the characters stories yet gave me tons of questions on
why the writer chose what it did for the story.
I will admit the last few episodes where interesting. Young
Do became a person, Rachel got to flirt, Eun Sang and Tan got to tease and
fight like a normal couple, and Madam Mom and Mom got to reunite. Over all, Heirs wasn’t an interesting or magical
ride despite it trying to be.
Sum up my feelings on
the episode:
Beam me up, Scotty
for were on to the next ….
