*SPOILERS*
I often binge and finish a series I really like irrespective of the number of episodes. To see the happy ending and breathe a sigh of relief for my beloved characters. LBFAD was a masterpiece. Right from the storyline, casting, acting, chemistry, direction, OSTs till the major character development of of the leads, it was absolutely stunning and the kind of love we yearn for in our lives. It was nothing less than a rollercoaster with the amount of angst and heartbreaks we had for both the Moon Supreme and Orchid.
It became absolutely devastating with Orchid stabbing herself with the sword. This was the page turner for me. In normal situations, I would have rushed and reached the ending to see the leads happy and get over the heartbreak. But here, I just couldn't move past QingCang's anguished face. I have kept it on hold for about 6 months now and I just cannot get myself to continue it further. NOT because I am not liking it anymore. But because I love it way too much to see it end and bid a farewell to these characters. I have been watching the first 10 episodes on repeat (good fluffy starts you know?) It definitely is emotionally draining to leave it on loose ends with no closure to it, but you know how you cannot let go of things you love? This story has been that for me. I know the ending is happy, but that also means it's an end to their story. I would rather grieve the longing than put a shutter on this art.
