Prime Minister and I: Episode 17 (Final)

We’ve reached the final chapter for Prime Minister and I, and while there aren’t any huge surprises in its last few pages, the show still puts us through the wringer before seeking to tie up its loose ends. I’d also tell you that you’ll need a great deal of patience in this hour for this story to get moving along already, and by that time, it’ll be the end or a new beginning.

But at least you can rest assured that our hero remains true to his admirable and honorable self, going beyond the call of duty when it comes to reconciliation and forgiveness. Because he’s just simply wonderful that way.

Ratings-wise, Prime Minister and I finished off its last week with a 4.9% and 6.1%, respectively.

FINAL EPISODE RECAP

After Yul runs into Da-jung in the street and asks if she can live without him, the two take a walk to chat. He tells her that he had contemplated what his life would look like if he didn’t see her anymore, acknowledging that they haven’t known each other for that long, so perhaps the separation wouldn’t be so hard.

But he had also realized that he became afraid and lost confidence at the thought of a life without her. In other words, “I missed you.”

Elsewhere, Na-young drags her feet thinking back to her encounter with her children. Woo-ri had held back angry tears and firmly denied his sister’s claim that the lady before them resembles their mother.

Their mother is dead, Woo-ri had reminded his siblings, then bitterly remarked that if their mother were alive, she definitely would have come back to them earlier. Na-young breaks down in sobs right then and there outside, but did you really think that your children would accept you right away with open arms?

Woo-ri continues to shoot down Na-ra’s suspicions once they’re home, doubting that she even remembers their mother. Na-ra protests that she does, to which oppa argues again that the woman they saw doesn’t resemble Mom at all. And little Man-se pouts by himself that he can’t remember Mom at all. Aw.

Da-jung and Yul end up at the hospital to pay a visit to her father, whom they find presumably still asleep. It dawns on them that something is terribly wrong when Dad doesn’t stir at their attempts to wake him, and Da-jung runs out in a panic to fetch the doctor. Ackkk!

The doctor says Dad went into shock, but thankfully is in stable condition now. Yul insists on staying with Da-jung, adding that the kids are being taken care of. He assures her that everything will be fine.

Na-young recounts her son’s stinging words to Joon-ki and his wife, only for Joon-ki to bark back that she should have been prepared for such a reception. He reminds his sister that she can’t be shaken now if she wants to return to the way things were.

Then Na-young asks Madam Na what she should do if her son hates her, an idea Madam Na finds ridiculous, and then wonders if Woo-ri knows the whole truth including the affair.

Da-jung sees Yul off in the morning and genuinely thanks him. He says there’s no need because Dad is like a father to him too and reminds her to take care of herself before heading out. Are… things okay between you two now? Is it too soon?

As for Dad, he’s better than we’ve ever seen him in this show, but we all know that things tend to get slightly better before they get much worse, like a calm before the storm. His memory is intact today, but he knows that with his dementia and brain tumor, his days are numbered.

So he asks his daughter for his journal so he can write down his memories. Da-jung rifles through her bag for a pen and finds the present from the kids—a wing necklace. Cute. She’s called away though, so Dad takes it upon himself to find it himself and discovers Da-jung’s journal. Oh no—don’t read it!

Curiosity gets the best of him, however, and he reels in shock at the last few entries. Then he confronts Da-jung about it when she returns, demanding an explanation about a contract marriage and Yul’s first wife.

Another confrontation takes place elsewhere as Na-young accuses Yul for telling their son everything while dangling the carrot of letting her see their children in front of her eyes. Why else would Woo-ri be so cold to her? Oy vey, I’d love to be more sympathetic to your character if you weren’t being written so poorly right now.

She refuses to believe that Yul didn’t say anything, but he points out that they both know it’s true, and she’s afraid that Woo-ri won’t take her back. Although Yul doesn’t believe that time heals all things, time is what their son needs right now.

Na-young apologizes for overreacting but before she leaves, Yul says he has one important thing to tell her: “Thank you for being alive.”

Da-jung faces the inevitable conversation with Dad on her own when Yul doesn’t pick up. I’m a little relieved that Dad is in the clearest state of mind right now, though it also makes his disbelief harder to swallow.

Da-jung tells her father that she and Yul are truly in love, but Dad counters that it doesn’t change the fact that the children’s mother is still alive. Da-jung can only hold back tears as Dad asks what compelled her to pull off a sham marriage, and then he realizes, “Was it because of me? Because I’m terminal?”

Then Dad blames himself for everything, telling his daughter that it isn’t her fault. Oh, Dad. He writes a letter to Da-jung in her diary later that night.

As Na-young and In-ho sit beside his brother’s bedside, she says that she feels she’s been greedy lately when the fact that she’s alive and that she could dream to meet her children are miracles themselves. Now she’s prepared to wait for the day Woo-ri will agree to see her and when Su-ho will awake.

Da-jung informs Yul over the phone that her father knows everything, and Yul replies that he’s on his way to handle it. She returns to her father’s room, only to be met with a sadder sight—Dad’s memory has regressed back to her school days, and he’s excited at the idea of playing in the snow with his daughter (it’s not snowing).

Da-jung’s eyes well up in tears in front of her father, but indulges his wish by taking him outside, and he looks up at the sky in awe of the invisible snow.

Apparently In-ho was able to overhear Da-jung’s phone conversation as he wonders to himself how Da-jung’s father found out the truth. But he has more urgent matters to attend to when Na-young rushes out with news that Su-ho recognizes her.

In-ho runs back inside to meet his brother’s eyes looking alert and tearfully asks if his brother recognizes him. Su-ho blinks in response.

Dad fawns over Da-jung out on the roof, smiling at how his pretty daughter needs to get married to a good and considerate man. And on that happy and snowy day, he’ll walk Da-jung down the aisle hand-in-hand.

Da-jung asks her father if he doesn’t remember and sadly notes that they did all of those things on her wedding day. And as she recounts the wonderful memories of that day, Dad’s head lolls and his hand drops. Oh no no no no, is he dead?

Da-jung turns to her father and when he doesn’t respond, she cries over his lifeless body. This is how Yul finds her, arriving a minute too late.

Sometime later, Yul pays his respects to Dad, uttering the only words he can muster: “I’m sorry.”

Downstairs, Da-jung assures the children that Dad’s passing isn’t the end, because he’s still alive in their hearts. It’s touching how broken up they are, and Na-ra tells her little brother that they’ll never see Grandpa again, just like Mom.

Man-se asks big bro if that’s true, and Woo-ri answers that though they can’t see Grandpa, they can go to see Mom.

Da-jung does her best to keep it together and Yul tells her that it’s okay for her to just cry. Fighting tears, she says it’s okay if Dad didn’t forgive her and was angry with her, but she can’t forgive herself of the guilt for leaving matters unresolved with him.

As Da-jung silently packs up Dad’s things at the hospital, she reads through his journal and breaks down sobbing when she sees pages filled with her own name. Gah, I’m not crying, my eyes are just a little sweaty today.

Yul is proud of Woo-ri for taking the brave step to meet his mother, having come to the realization that he wouldn’t be able to if she dies (er, again. Too soon?). Na-young walks towards her son hesitantly, and then mother and son share a tearful embrace.

Joon-ki understands that it’ll take some time before Na-young is reunited with the younger children. He takes back his words about Na-young being accepted back into the family, and asks if Yul would accept his apology for his wrongdoings.

Yul asks jokingly if Joon-ki would be able to if he thought about everything he did. There’s hope for their friendship yet, but Yul admits that it’ll be some time before they can return to the ways things once were. Before Joon-ki leaves, Yul gives one last piece of advice, telling Joon-ki not to let the person by his side grow lonely.

The Scandal News Team converse about recent events, wondering what will happen to Da-jung once her husband is unemployed. That’s when Da-jung shows up at their door and tells them not to worry about her, then drops off the box with Dad’s belongings.

That’s because Da-jung plans on taking a trip in memory of her father, and she congratulates In-ho on the happy news that Su-ho is awake now. He considers it a miraculous present from her father, words that warm her heart.

She hasn’t told Yul about her travels yet and she doesn’t know how long it will be for yet. That’s a little unsettling—don’t be gone for years now!

After In-ho recaps Yul’s schedule for his last day as prime minister, he asks if Yul knew about Da-jung’s travel plans. He isn’t surprised to hear Yul didn’t know about it, and asks if Yul shouldn’t try to stop her from leaving. What if she doesn’t return?

Yul cuts him off, saying that he’s reminded of the words that there’d come a day when they’d pay the price for their contract marriage. So even if Da-jung were to never return, Yul doesn’t feel right about preventing her from leaving.

Later that evening, Yul returns to the estate to spend his final night there. He takes a leisurely stroll down memory lane as he walks through the courtyard, sits in the now empty study, and even breaks into a smile in the bedroom, thinking back to his promise never to let Da-jung’s hand go.

As Yul surveys the rest of the estate, he hears a voice call out behind him—it’s Da-jung. Not to far off, In-ho runs into Hye-joo, who has resigned from her position to carve out her own path. She’s told that she won’t be able to accompany Yul tonight because he has another guest.

At the dining table Da-jung interviews Yul on how he feels about his final night at the estate. Yul answers that it hasn’t hit him yet, and she replies it hasn’t for her either. He says he doesn’t regret the time he’s spent here because he learned so many things from Da-jung in that brief period of time.

At the mention of Da-jung’s trip, Yul asks if she has to leave. Da-jung answers, “If our destinies cross again in the future, if we can have a true beginning, I’ll take your hand then.” She tells Yul to take care of himself until then and that she was happy about their time together before taking her leave.

Yul bids goodbye to the ministers and his staffers the following morning as he leaves the estate for the last time. He casts one final look back before he climbs into the car.

We flashforward to about a year later (but don’t count on the show to tell you that right away) and Hye-joo is now a newly-elected member of the National Assembly and gets mobbed by the press.

Elsewhere, Joon-ki and Yul watch their children playing together with a smile. Yul is readying himself for an upcoming presidential election and asks for Joon-ki’s help. Joon-ki firmly says he can’t be seen standing up against the rich when his father-in-law is a chaebol… but he will help in secret.

Joon-ki takes a teasing stab at Yul, saying that Yul doesn’t have anybody beside him to assume the role of First Wife. At least things have changed for the better between Joon-ki and his own wife because they now have a second child.

Yul declines a dinner invitation on account of having previous plans and picks up a children’s book on a cartoon frog character. And what do you know, Da-jung is the book’s author, now back in Korea after her trip around the world for her father’s death anniversary. Uh oh, why am I getting Mi-rae’s Choice flashbacks?

While the Scandal News team excuses themselves for an interview, Da-jung goes through the box of Dad’s belongings. She’s able to read her father’s journal with a sad smile and finds his last letter to her in her own.

Tears fall from her eyes as she reads that Dad’s greatest wish wasn’t for her to get married, but to see her happy and smiling. “Da-jung, be happy with Yul, whom you love so much. Though your beginning wasn’t love, but I trust that the end will be love.”

Then Da-jung goes to visit her father’s urn at a columbarium as we hear her narrate her achievements to Dad that she’s now an author. She looks up… and sees a copy of her book already tucked inside the glass case, and then smiles in realization.

Aw, In-ho is still working for Yul, who’s told that his appointment is running late, so they’ll move up the next interview. Then In-ho walks away with a knowing smirk.

Yul checks the time on his watch, reminded of Da-jung’s words of how she wishes time will continue for him. And who should be his next appointment but Da-jung herself, who calls him the familiar “prime minister” title before correcting herself.

Da-jung formally introduces herself and requests an interview with the presidential candidate for her upcoming book entitled—wait for it—Prime Minister and I. Wait a minute—this isn’t happening again, is it? I thought I was done with the drama-to-book title meta references!

Yul asks who the protagonist is, and she says both characters are. When he asks how long the interview will take, she asks teasingly if he plans on only giving her ten minutes of his time.

He agrees to offer his services, though, he doesn’t know how much help he’ll be, and Da-jung extends her hand to officially introduce herself. Yul takes it and Da-jung says, “Then shall we begin?”

COMMENTS

A handshake. Really?! *breathes deeply* For a show teasing the audience with alluring and enticing skinship moments for most of its run, we sure got a tame third act and an even politer ending in that department. So I held onto the hope that if we must wade through forty-five minutes of angst in the finale, then at least the last fifteen minutes will be puking happy unicorns and rainbows for our main couple. Because what other purpose would you have for an extra hour besides fanservice for the viewers, right? Ha ha ha… ha.

I do realize though that it isn’t the handshake itself that bothers me, because I see the narrative continuity of Yul and Da-jung’s reunion, since taking each other’s hand is a motif of the show, and ties into Da-jung’s parting words that she would take Yul’s hand if they could start anew later on. To that end, I would still classify this reunion as a happy ending in dramaland and a new beginning for this couple, but that still doesn’t change how I personally feel let down to start at square one again after being a witness to this couple’s journey and seeing just how far they’ve come; to have exhausted so much emotional energy for so many episodes, only to limp towards the finish line.

It really is a pity then that the show chose to place so much emphasis on the dramatic conflict of Na-young’s reappearance and reconciliation. By placing a spotlight on Na-young, not only did the romance take a large step backwards (which is to be expected in the latter portion of a romantic comedy, provided it takes two steps forward later on), I also feel that it drew attention away from the children and family unit, whom I’ve grown to love and who adopted new family dynamics. Thus the familial focus of building something new was crumbled down so that reconciliation could take place.

That may be why I also felt a disconnect when Na-young was finally reunited with Woo-ri, because while I was so proud of Woo-ri for stepping up to the plate, I still felt it was all too soon. And then there’s the fact that the other reunions took place offscreen and we jumped ahead to a happier future. Then I also felt a small bitterness of how Na-young presumably got her happy ending, and Yul had to do even more waiting. I’m glad that there’s hope for Na-young yet in the future, and yet, couldn’t we have been granted a happier ending for our main couple as well?

Then our heroine in Da-jung felt even more distanced than ever, of which I feel we can blame the writing for giving us yet another classic case of noble idiocy, separation, and tossing in an arbitrary trip ’round the world like every drama ever. I knew that Prime Minister and I didn’t seek to carve out its own path in the rom-com genre, which is why I don’t feel as disappointed in that regard, knowing that the show wasn’t going to reinvent the wheel. While I could attribute Da-jung’s reason for leaving this time was to cope her grief, I still can’t help that the trip itself felt pretty lame in terms of character development in the end. And the less we talk about the author and book bit, the better, methinks.

Still, Yul is the saving grace of this show in both his rounded out character and romance with Da-jung. I’m so happy that we got to see Yul dream higher as a presidential candidate to make a difference and remained true to his principles. Furthermore, it was so nice to be able to see two decent people fall in love and cultivate a mature relationship, where both parties were thoughtful, considerate, appreciative, and respectful towards each other—such rare qualities in dramaland nowadays. We could see how much Yul and Da-jung cherished each other and didn’t take the other’s presence in their lives for granted.

That’s why despite the sluggish latter third of the show that keeps this series from being pitch-perfect, I’m reminded of all the refreshingly funny, heartwarming, and contemplative moments in Yul and Da-jung and those three adorable kids. Goodness knows that we’ve never gotten a sexier politician than in Yul, and it might take one thousand and one nights (or more) for that appeal to wear off, if ever.

It was getting comical, for a poor reporter, who 'wasn't wealthy and didn't need much' to have 30+ different coats and matching outfits. That's a pretty big closet! Well, at least the fashion team had a good time.....she looked good. ;)

I really started out loving this show, and despite its low ratings, I was determined to love it. Which is why the lame handshake ending was so disappointing!! How frustrating! I completely agree that the show lost steam in its third act. What a waste of a great setup in the early episodes. :(

Of course they look like relatives and not a couple! That's because this drama finished colder than it started. I already complained before about the lack of warmth between the couple, and was told that it would cheapen the story. Since when does a kiss with love cheapen anything? unbelivable!

I have no idea what everybody saying about the ending of PM&I. I thought it ended two weeks ago while Kwon Yul holds Da Jung hand and says he won't let go of her hand. So what if I insist on living in denial? This us the sane choice, at least for me, or the knowledge that I wasted so much precious time in the end as I saw yesterday, totally takes me out of my mind.

This is an excellent, excellent idea. I am totally with you on this. I'm going to erase the last few episodes off my computer and from my memory so that when I re-watch this show later in the year or next year, the show will end at Kwon Yul's gentle declaration of his feelings. Oh I feel so much better now!

At last the ending is worth to wait although 2nd last episode a bit slow down and full with questions but the final episode answer all the questions. I love how they make the ending where Yul & Da Jeong meet again as like what their first time meet each other..that's why Da Jeong said ' You won't give me only 10 minutes for interview this time isn't it' :) And the last scene reminded me with scene where Da Jeong said she never did what couple always did since she married with Yul. So the ending show that both of them start the relationship from the beginning again ^^. Glad that final episode is something that worth to wait and no rushing at all. One more thing, this drama not fully about couple, love and so on but it's more to compromise and how we handle all those feeling to make a right decision. How to understand with each other and how to be professional too. Not too much romance and not too much politic issue in it. Even their try to makes it funny with those three kids :)

So yeah...I did certainly feel like they forgot about a lot of the important things. I could have accepted it all if only they'd had a few cutesy couple scenes and family scenes because thats why we fell in love with the drama in the first place. It felt like the writers decided to focus on all these bigger plot points thinking that its okay because all those happy scenes in the past drive the resolutions they came to in this ep. But thats not okay. Of course I enjoy all those heartfelt, deep conversations Yul and Da-Jung had, but there wasn't a single scene of goofing off or moments of cute bickering between our couple. Also they could have taken away one of the fake kisses earlier if only to give us one when, I don't know, they actually have feelings for each other. It's especially surprising considering the extension. Why drag out all the noble idiocy for a whole episode when they had plenty of other plot points to focus on. I think the extension had them so concerned about slowing it down that they ended up rushing things in the end. Ultimately, I loved this drama, but I definitely think the Na-Young storyline was a huge mistake.

I like your analysis. Those deep conversations are the reasons why the love between Nam Da Jung and Kwon Yul will last. The sacrifices they made on each other's behalf and Yul's genuine care for Da Jung's father. There are at least two times that Da Jung felt the love because of what Yul did for her father. There would have been plenty of kisses if Da Jung were a "Valley Girl" but she isn't. She surprised Chief Kang, Secretary Seo and Kwon Yul that she has REAL SUBSTANCE. As for those "traffic accidents" which happened in the earlier episodes, they were for others to observe. The body guards, the driver, the housekeeper all propagated tall tales about their romance and that serves a purpose to the Nation that the Prime Minister is happily married. That fact that Man Se recounted the "didn't happen kiss" after eating Ramen as a real kiss, that made Madame Na and everyone else jealous. The second kiss at the hotel room impressed the Lily Club.

Another letdown by the scriptwriter. Resurrecting Na Young was OK but having her reunite with kids etc was easy cop out instead of exploring alternative of kids accepting Da Jung as part of the family. And they just swept under the carpet Na Young's affair with In Ho's brother from the kids. I hate it when writer ties up loose ends this way. Yul and Da Jung's relationship and chemistry just fizzled out from the tepid plot ending. Frustrating ending deserving of the low ratings.

Aigoo! That is the sentiment that came to mind when they ended with a looooong hand shake. Couldn’t it have been a long kiss? Even a pucker-less kiss would have been more satisfying then the handshake. I got why they went with a handshake, and that it is all happy and good. However, I loved Yul so much, and I wanted him to get a little action for such mature behavior throughout the alive-dead cheating wife drama, resigning from his job, divorce, and his current-love abandonment of over a year. I even had hopes he would pull her into his arms at the very last second, but no… I did love this drama. It was happy, cute and had fairly well developed characters. This light rom-com really incorporated some dramatic twist. Oh, you gotta love K-dramas! There is no shame when it comes to plot development. I became detached from Da-Jung by the end. She got on my nerves, and I felt like she was missing her chance at happiness with Yul and the kids. Apparently, I do not have Yul’s patience. I did start out adorning this drama though, and I was always excited for the next episode. If I ever re-watch this drama again, I will happily end on episode 13 and call it. I am going to repress the last four episodes. I want to remember this family as happy, fun and warm, eating ramen at the dinner table together .

Exactly, it started like a rom-com and ended as a family drama. My sympathies to those who are disappointed with it as a rom-com. But as a family drama, to me it was nearly perfect: the makjang was a seasoning and never the main course.

Thanks for this and all the recaps! It does get tiring after a while so I appreciate your time and effort.

I am all for a luke-warmish reunion, but why not put that more towards the middle of the ep, so we can have love, kisses and new babies at the end to coo over?

They chickened out and that pisses me off.
What exactly were they afraid of?
In five years, nobody is going to remember which actors were married or dating or what the current audience felt about the age gap. Just like us, they going to get to the end and ask. "What the hell was that?"

Networks need to be taking more risks. Let car companies and security companies be the ones playing it safe, not creative folks.

You nail my thoughts Jomo.

This has been bugging me too. I want the writers to stay true to their craft. Let me be entertained. If creative folks start pandering to what sells, what is popular, I'm doomed as I don't go by those things. Recall earlier kdramas we saw where some shifts can be detected in the storyline because of netizens' near-wars. I feel short-changed.
Maybe we should start a classification system based on writers and list those who are plain commercial ones to truly gifted ones. Can anyone start the ball rolling? And can we get this site to always, at the start of new dramas tell us who the writers are and where they are in our classification system.
If we watch when we know they are in the two-star category as opposed to 5-star, then we know what we are in for.
We can review classification every 3 years and see. Any great mobilisers out there? I'm more of ideas person, but will support this campaign through to the finish.

Your last sentence was SO spot on, jomo! Grrr. They need to let their writers be. What, they wanted to pacify the viewers who were complaining about the pairing when I bet those same viewers did not even watch this drama they're complaining about? Ugh. Total disservice to the ones who loved this show.

I wish I could say that I loved Prime Minister and I, but that would be false. I really liked it, but it didn't quite cinch my heart for the following reasons.

I felt episodes 16 and 17 were like place holders. Honestly, a lot of what was shown in the last two episodes could be condensed into one. It felt like we were meandering through what could have been written to be a more concise and more action and passionate ending.

A huge downer for me was the lack of skinship between the Prime Minister and Na Jung. Honestly, apart from the near miss grabs and "buss" kisses in the earlier episodes the skinship between Na Jung and the Kwon Yul was nearly non-existent.

There were more deliberate hugs between In-ho and Na Jung than between the Kwon Yul and Na Jung. I know that Korean culture is more conservative. But hey, for most of these episodes Na Jung was practically his wife (before PNY came on the scene), it seemed that the more they fell in love or in like with each other the more distant their physical interactions were. Falling asleep in the same room being fully clothed with all the lights on? Why not change into PJ's to be more comfortable? Confessing that you love a woman while holding her hand made me feel I was watching a PG drama. Why not at least hug her or something if a kiss would have been too explicit? I was kind of holding out hope that at least we would have something at the last episodes but we had the handshake again - and it left me wondering WTH. (OK, enough of my rant).

My final pet peeve was that everything ended up a little too peachy, the bow, too neatly tied. Woo Ri's about-turn from being angry with his mom was a little too abrupt, too quick, too pat. I would have preferred PNY to suffer more for abandoning her kids. I would have been perfectly happy if the drama had ended with Woo-ri still angry with his mom because that would have been more realistic (call it the sadist in me). Joon Ki suddenly loves the wife he has ignored for several years and becomes a doting daddy? Seems inconsistent.

Lastly, why did the Prime Minister have to resign his commission, politics is full of compromises, it's never all or nothing and with his appointment being of such short duration, it seemed that he didn't accomplish much in that position. I'm glad that he didn't leave the field though, and is in running for president.

All in all, it was a warm, fuzzy, light, bubbly drama with excellent actors and beautiful scenery. It just didn't go the final step to being a truly great rom-com for me, though I can understand why others love it.

Beats me why they decided to take something with a heaps of heart and plenty of chemistry and replace it with a handful of soggy cliche flavored noodles. And no family (just to be clear, when I say family I mean Yul, Da Jeong, kids) scenes? *blows raspberry* Whatever.

Thanks for your hard work recapping, gummi! It was a fun ride, anyway, even if the destination left a little to be desired.

After the awful ending, I don't really know what to make of the whole series. I guess the quote "it's not over till it's over" really applies for this series.

The series as a whole was such a breath of fresh air, a drama about family, love, friendship - rather than poor good girl going after rich handsome bad boy. But I can't help but feel even more disappointed since it had been so good all the way up to episode 14.

I don't even care all that much about the romance (or lack of in this case), I just can't stand how the last couple of episodes undermined everything the drama was building towards. All the merits of family, acceptance, and love were somehow just forgotten.

I don't think love, family and acceptance were forgotten. In allowing NJ back to her kids, that is also about family. KJ having a baby with his wife is another acceptance. It just didn't go the way everyone though it should.

The handshake...the darn handshake....siiigh. Okay, so this drama was one of the best I've seen in a while, but...I was disappointed with the last few episodes. Not enough to hate it, but enough to not wanna re-watch it to the end. I understand that the lack of skinship between the two leads is because of their age difference. I just don't understand why we had to be deprived of even handholding..come on lol even a hug would have been sufficient for the ending. The two leads have chemistry, no doubt about that.

It felt as though the series was building momentum in a great way, then things just fizzled. And I didn't really pay attention to the fizzling, because I was distracted by all the other drama going on. I feel that after Na Young came back, her story pushed the main story to the sidelines. The drama was heartwarming, everybody did a great job with their acting, but something went wrong with the final episodes. Also, I was actually bored. Which is terrible! cause i was entertained for so long, but i couldn't patiently sit through the last episode.

I think the ending was suitable for the current situation. It's sweet of them to start the normal way and not swept up in a contract marriage. It's not like they had amnesia and don't know each other anymore. The idea of a new beginning ties in with what Da Jung mentioned earlier about taking his hand in the future. I seriously doubt they will totally start over and be formal, slow, tentative and such. There's no denying it, they truly love each other, and it's only a matter of time before they get married again. I'm just happy they're together in the end because that's what counts. But the handshake though. Fantastic motif and wrap-around, but I have to admit, after all that drama with Na Young coming back, we deserved some of the cuteness/comedy from the beginning episodes that made me love the show in the first place.... T-T

Am I the only one who thinks Da Jung's noble idiocy wasn't that bad? Honestly, it makes sense in her POV and fits in with her character's personality. I don't think she was a total idiot and I'm sooo happy that Yul didn't let her go easily.

The last two episodes where kind of a bummer. I really missed the cute, romantic, and zippy parts in the beginning. Of course, it makes sense because most rom-coms turn melo in the end anyways, and the extension didn't do it any good either. But that doesn't mean I didn't enjoy the show. I loved the characters and the 1001 Nights tie-in. Although we took a dip into typical drama territory near the end, I don't regret watching it. It's still one of my favs. Lee Bum Soo was amazing as always, and Yoona improved leaps and bounds. A very enjoyable, heartwarming, family drama.

Thanks for the all the recaps gummimochi!

Now it's time for You From Another Star. :)

Wow. For a show I loved sooo much, I couldn't have been more disappointed in the ending. From the start, this show was different. The lead was different and bold (she was the first to confess her feelings), and everything about it just felt fresh and unique, from the pacing to the story-line.

And then towards the end, it became like every other show out there. Da-jung became that annoying female lead, the one who repeatedly says no when she really means yes. The one who ignores her wants and feelings.

The love story became typical. Unnecessary struggles. How bad would it have been if they came together and faced their obstacles side by side? Did Da-jung really have to leave?

And then we get no kiss or any sort of passion from the couple since they became a couple. It almost felt like they're telling us something is wrong with this couple, and therefore we shouldn't see them display their love for each other in the physical sense.

I'm just stunned. The show was EXCELLENT up until the last 3 - 4 episodes...

I'm not sure how many of you actually watch the last two episodes. You should at least watch it. The recaps are great but watch the show with full dialogue. The ending will not change and yes it's not great but the last two episodes had its own merits. If you are only for shipping the OTP, then I guess you won't like it. If you watch it to see what happens to all, I think you will still find the episode does end the drama properly or almost except for the kids. I guess I wasn't so affected by the ending as I don't watch the drama for the OTP. I like the drama for being fun and easy to watch. The OTP chemistry was a bonus. I like how they talked to each other and think about each other. The lack of kisses didn't bother me I guess lol. Anyway, do finish watching if you didn't. I felt good that Dajung came back with a smiling face that has no regret.

Hello. Long time lurker, first time poster here!This is the first k-drama I've watched at the same time it's being broadcast, and the 5th complete k-drama I've watched (others being DGCY, FH, I'm Sorry I love you and Witch Yoo-hee/Witch Amusement) Just wanted to give my thoughts on this drama.

As much as I (like everyone else) hated Na Young coming back, I recognize that her appearance is necessary to resolve the conflicts. Both Joon Ki and In Ho's anger that's locked in them that causes them to derail Kwon Yul's PM-ship can only unlocked by Na Young, specifically the truth to the cause of the accident. With Su Ho in a vegetative state, only Na Young can communicate the truth to her bro and In Ho so that they can both release their anger and give up on revenge. Even though I understand why NY has to come back, that doesn’t mean I didn’t wish that NY meets the Truck of Doom while rescuing a cute puppy (I’m horrible for wishing death upon a not-horrible-evil-or-bitchy character).

I also buy the handshake scene. Kwon Yul and Da Jung’s relationship started off as a contractual relationship, one where DJ is subordinate and listens to KY, and addresses KY formally as the PM. I don’t recall DJ ever saying KY’s name or “honey” out loud, even after both confessed their feelings and had one episode’s worth of happiness. The handshake + reintroducing themselves allow them to start an actual, organic relationship where they’re both equals and could possibly lead to a change to what they refer to each other with specific terms of endearment.

That said, I found the last scene to be unsatisfying as the ending. If I were the PD/writer, my ending scene would go something like this:
After the handshakes, fade to white then fade to “The One and Only Church in Seoul”. You see wedding decorations everywhere, and Woo Ri is on stage with his pianist-friend doing a sound check. Cut to a short scene with Kwon Yul and Man Se (who’s dressed as the ring bearer), where MS ask KY if he’s nervous, and tells him he shouldn’t be nervous cuz this is KY’s third time doing this. Woo Ri appears and tells his dad that the sound system is ok. Move on to another room, one where the bride is getting ready. As the bride stands and is being helped with final adjustments and such, we focus on Na Ra who’s dressed up as a flower girl. Na Ra’s gushing about how Woo Ri’s piano playing friend is really good looking and wonders how she could introduce herself to that cute piano playing oppa. She then asks Ahjumma on suggestions on what to do. Camera pans up to DJ’s face as she tells Na Ra to just be herself because she’s a really pretty, smart and self-confident girl. Off camera, we hear someone tell everyone to get ready because the ceremony is about to begin. Next, we see DJ by herself, waiting to walk down the aisle by herself. Suddenly, viewers hear dad’s voice and we see his apparition as we see him dressed to the nines and tells DJ how much he loves her and can’t really bear to give her away. Lots of cute father-daughter fluff and then DJ cries a bit. In Ho appears to give her some support and gives his handkerchief to her to dry her eyes and she also uses it to blow her nose. He leaves to go back into the church, and the chapel door swings open. Split screen of KY and DJ, both smile and we fade to white.

And that's how I'd end. LOL. but that's just me?

Thanks, Teesui, I really like your labor of love. Thanks for joining us here, many of us are not that normal. I doubt they would go through that wedding ceremony again, Kwon Yul is just too practical (buying a ring on the Internet and complained about Da Jung's lace wedding dress). If they marry for real, it would probably be just paperwork. Your suggestion that the new handshake and re-introduction will lead to equal ground for both partners is absolutely brilliant. Even Kwon Yul asked Da Jung who the main character would be in that supposed book that she is planning to write. Her answer was that both are main characters. We won't get to hear what they would call each other, rats. But during the first two episodes, Da Jung used the name Kwon Yul twice. Once when she was really mad, "I will return you a favor then, Kwon Yul, you are of low quality!" The other time when she explained to Park Hee Chul who the "Real Honey" is on her phone (it was actually her dad), "I will tell you who my real honey is now, it is, Kwon Yul." Then of course, she called him Jagiya (honey for not married people) many times and that drove Kwon Yul nuts. But those were the fun episodes, after that, it was all "Choong-Ri-Nim."

I feel really disappointed with the last few episodes as well. I loved this series when it started, but after 10 episodes, the momentum was lost.

I feel like most dramas start fantastic, alluring and interesting and when the writers try to tie all the loose ends in the very end, it doesn't work out at all. It feels lackluster and dissatisfying. I honestly looked forward to watching this show every Monday and Tuesday from episodes 1-12, then after that trying to watch the remaining episodes became a chore and I just wasn't excited anymore.

So in all, the conclusion was not horrible, but extremely disappointing. I didn't feel their love for each other in the end; thinking about it, at least they met again after parting from the contract.

Now I can sob in a corner ... T_T

Dear Gummimochi, thanks for the excellent recaps.

I think that the reappearance of Yul's ex-wife took steam from the series. On the other hand, it is a Drama that shows two adults falling in love (as an adults with virtues, defects, quirks, circumstances and limitations) and getting to know each other. It is an unusual treat in general.

I love that it is character growth-based, shared experience-based and communication-based rather than Skinship or exclusively chemistry-based. I do not miss the Skinship at the finale because a deep undercurrent of love and understanding is involved (like in those cute old couples where you don't find kisses and even hand holding but an irradiation of quiet happiness and an animated conversation).

On another note, please update the recaps root for this Drama (it is set in chapter 13) and if possible please add a rating.

Thanks, and greetings from Caracas, Venezuela.

But can't they at least add another second to show the firm handshake dropped to a casual handholding? Even that will appease me at this point.

I'm not satisfied with the final episode. too rush and a handshake as an indication for their new beginning is boring! I hope the writer put more stories for their reunion after a year. I want to know how Yul's children reaction when they see Da Jung, what happen to In Ho brother and Na young.

This drama should have at least 20 eps to be more reasonably picturing the sweetness of the couple (about theDa Jung's ring that Yul thought he missed, about the dating activities that they would like to start doing, continuing reading book together... sigh), the continuity of sincere bonding that Da Jung built with the kids, how finally Man Se and Na Ra found out about the real mom.. Sometimes i regret why the writer had to add some silly scenes into the drama like the scenes of mafia in the hospital... And actually deep down in our heart.. We need more skinship and kisses.. Hahaha..

PMAI is a different drama from the beginning, regardless of national origins. It had (still has) a special place in my heart. But like many views I felt something missing in the last two episodes, to put it mildly, even when I willingly followed the plot (I found it convincing, piggybacking on the insights of angel101 and docster6) and let the multiple symbolisms sink in (e.g. the handshake at the end is a symbol of reaching out for trust and understanding; by ending the series with the handshake, the symbol is eternalized). I would like to put forth a bold observation: the frustration felt by the viewers had something to do with the contrast of Yoona’s and LBS’s acting skills in expressing emotional depths in the subtlest way.

Please don’t feel that I’m criticizing Yoona’s acting. I was truly impressed by her performance from the very beginning. For a young actress she’s done extremely well, from how she picks an “eye fight” with the PM at the beginning to the way tears swell up in her eye when she looks the man she loves in later episodes. But Yoona is acting with (or against) a veteran actor who can condense the deepest emotion in a brief look in his eyes. Comments on KY in this forum are predominantly adulatory, mainly on how KY sticks to his integrity and principles to the end. It seems to me we liked KY so much because we felt an urge to feel for KY through LBS’s acting. All this happened in inexpressible ways. On the other hand, I as a viewer wasn’t able to feel the emotional turmoil that NDJ was presumably going through from ep 16 onward. If she breaks up with KY for his benefit, for giving him the space he needs to make his decision, she should know there is a chance for him to leave her, and that means every time she sees her, it might be the last time. Whose heart won’t break at that thought? But the few times when NDJ is alone after seeing KY in the last two episodes, she looks sad and somewhat lost. Her emotional turmoil shows the most after she runs down the stairs to chase after him but decides not to speak (in ep 16); she seems to be on the verge of tears. When KY says “Can you live without me,” there seems to be a slight stir in her but not enough to let the emotional energy move the viewer.

Again, I’m not blaming Yoona. After all, it’s the PD who made the decision of which shots to use, and we don’t know about the unused shots if there were any. PMAI is definitely a major milestone in Yoona’s acting career. In the best of NDJ’s spirit, Yoona ssi’s fault aan-i-e-o. If there’s someone to blame, I would blame LBS for spoiling us with his exquisitely refined acting. To compensate him for this, let him win all the lead actor awards in Korea in 2014!

Thank you, gummimochi, for hosting this forum. Your recaps have enriched my viewing experience.

Thank you for your well-thought-out analysis of the acting. I was trying to leave this drama and move on but I decided to watch the last part of Episode 17 again (and again) carefully to see if I'd missed something. I found that Yoona (Nam Da Jung) did a lot of very fine and detailed facial expressions to convince me as a viewer that she was ready to go after the man she love again. That dreaded period of one year was way too long for all of us but her reading of her father's letter after she came back, that she found by accident (very well acted). And also at her father's urn at a columbarium, she was surprised that Kwon Yul has already placed her book there. That small action on her face was very, very fine, not the usual AH-HA or surprise. That showed me that she has reached a very high level. Her bright smile when she was talking to Kwon Yul at the end was a direct action encouraged by her father, to smile brightly, and that is her strength. I love Lee Bum Soo's acting, but I feel Im Yoon Ah has arrived as well.

Many thanks for your reply. I like all your examples! I totally agree with you that Yoona is at her best when she expresses positive feelings in NDJ such as happiness and determination. She’s also excellent in emotional outpours like NDJ’s breakdown when she sees the page filled with her name in her father’s handwriting while packing his belongings. My previous comment focused more on moments where NDJ is supposed to be having subtle internal struggles over her relationship with KY (those moments are mostly in ep 16; I’d say they conclude with the opening scene of ep 17). As a contrastive reference, in NDJ and KY’s final meeting at the official residence in ep 17, NDJ’s resolution comes back as she has made up her mind to leave, and Yoona delivers the character well.

Yoona has brought out the human being in NDJ to the fullest in previous episodes (and the NDJ there is often bright and bold), but in her moments of emotional struggle, while I yearn to feel for NDJ, she becomes less feel-able. All the while the Lee Bum Soo-Kwon Yul unified energy has become as natural as air (didn't realize this until I thought more closely). Perhaps my sense of loss after watching the whole series came from somewhere in-between. Probably you would understand that my purpose of writing is to try and understand why I (and maybe some other viewers) got into this quandary, rather than criticize or compare. I'm thankful for your interest and sharing in this topic!

Omo, omo, omo, I feel so foolish! I discovered just now that the 3 pictures with Da Jung's father's urn has in the middle a wedding picture of Da Jung with the Prime Minister's family. To me that is really significant, that for that one year that Da Jung was gone, Da Jung's family acknowledged that Da Jung was married to the Prime Minister. Now I am even more happy because that was before the divorce of Yul and Na Young.

Just finished PMAI.

Now wanting a sequence of KY into Presidency chair and ahem... DJ 1st lady...

KY is surely one blur guy. Am glad In-ho stays by him throughout and bet In-ho knew DJ's whereabout.

Ah...happy PNY is taken. But whether she is taken or not does not make much difference considering KY is strong in his stand that PNY can only return as the kids' mom and not his wife. And instead KY stands by his words.

Ouch KY such a solid fellow despite being a bit slow and blur in the romance category but overall...I admire him for his firm stand. Imagine 7 years not hanging out with females after PNY presumably missing / dead and then after that 1 year when DJ goes travelling.

I was so giddy when KY was wearing the wedding band throughout from the moment he asked DJ to be his real wife and they go through real marriage. During the contract marriage and being PM always in the limelight, he did not don any wedding band. Isn't that strange?

Overall...I enjoy this show.

School got super busy, so I ended up just reading recaps for the last 5 episodes, and I'm glad I did! Because in my mind, PMI is an adorable show with adorable kids and an adorable couple. I'll just forget I read the recaps.

I'll never understand why every drama insists on separating them in the last 10 minutes. I just don't get what that does for the story! We just spent the last 17 hours watching them fight to be together and then they have to start all over?!?!

Granted, in this case, 'starting over' isn't such a bad thing since they started in the middle and now they can have a proper dating experience...but....but....the kids! She left for a year! After they finally accepted her! These kids will have trust issues with everyone leaving them.

Felt cheated with the ending and the time i invested. It was funny and warm hearted at first with the bickering and then in the end, it just seems like the characters were way too reserved and did not showcase the happy family/couple ending we were all waiting for. The drama also feel slow and draggy at parts, seems like the director was trying to drag out the time. This Korean director need to reflect on making the dramas more alive, dynamic, vibrant and less stiff.

For my first Korean drama (I'm British), 'Prime Minister and I' did not disappoint. I love Im Yoona and this was my first time seeing her act, and I thought she portrayed Nam Da Jung very well. In fact, all the actors were great. And how cute was Man Se?!

Although, I must say I preferred the episodes were the characters were developing their relationship with one another, as opposed to the storyline with Na Young's reappearance. I thought the final episodes of the show dwelled on Na Young too much. I really wish we saw more of Kwon Yul & Da Jung acting as a couple. Also, I would have liked more of Secretary Seo's & Chief Kang's storylines (Seo & Joon Ki and In Ho & Soo Ho).

Overall, I was pleased with the endings for each of the characters and I especially loved that Da Jung and Yul got the chance to start their relationship separate from their marriage contract. I'm so disappointed that there was no romantic kiss between them, though.

Anyway, I thought it was a rather splendid series. I shall be watching more K-Drama.

There should be a new season for this drama as I was truly frustrated about how it ended. Well, you see, they (DJ and Kwon Yul) had gone through all obstacles only to eventually meet up for a new life with a handshake? Oh my! Should they start all over as strangers? At such moment, they should confess each others' feelings, shouldn't they? About how much they have been missing each other? It's a frustrating ending....it really is...

Very impressive to have you to summarize every episode that took me 3 days to watch. I find it very cliff-hanging as the ending goes. Though I also cried a lot in the part of Da-jung's dad. I wish they'll have a part 2 for this. I went on watching it again for the second time. Too bad the two lead characters didn't have any more projects together though if they have, I'll go crazy to have it along my collection.

Hmm.... Prime Minister and I, not exactly the ending I was looking for, but I was really disappointed in it, a lot of questions were left unanswered..... What about Na Ra's nd Man Se's idea about their mom?, what happened to In Ho's crush on Da Jeong?? Where did Na Young live after meeting Woo Ri?? With the prime minister? Or with her brother?? Did she still get to see other kids?? I really wasnt satisfied with the idea of a woman who left her husband and children for 7years to actually get her wish granted..... But I gotta commend the writers, from the every beginning I was always on the egde of my seat wondering what would happen next..... Keep up the good work but the ending was really heart breaking...
