"Hurrem’s patronage was not limited to these projects. She built a double bath on the ceremonial route adjacent to Hagia Sophia in the centre of the Old City, another one in the crowded commercial centre of Eminonu on the shores of the Golden Horn and a khan close to the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul. She also built a mosque in Ankara, waterways in Edirne, a mosque, a soup kitchen and a primary school in Svilengrad in today’s Bulgaria, and another madrasa in Istanbul. She repaired the Ayn Zubeyde waterways that supplied water to Mecca and she actively participated in the building process of the funerary mosque complex of her son, S¸ehzade Mehmed. Even though she never became Valide Sultan because of her early death, the immense patronage of Hurrem Sultan formed a true prototype for future generations of favourites and queen mothers."

MLSHR Anniversary Week: Day 6 —  favourite underrated moment detail

Hae Soo’s name

Unfortunately, meaningful details like this most of the time are left unnoticed by the international audience, it just simply gets lost in translation. 

In mandarin chinese Ha Jin’s Goryeo name means tree, at first look, it seems that there’s nothing special about it, however, it means a lot. Throughout the drama, we learn that Wang So is very fond of plants and trees because in his lonely days when he was abandoned by his own family in Shinju, among the people who not just hated him but constantly tried to kill him, without any friends or relatives, trees were his only friends. Young prince learned how to befriend trees, treat them as they are living creatures. He advises Soo to not carelessly water the garden but give every tree a name and make friends with them. At first, Soo thinks that So is just making fun of her, but then he tells her about his favorite birch that he had to put on fire in order to protect himself from wolves, another example of how So always gives up on things that he loves and cares about. Another remarkable moment was on Wang Eun and Park Seon Deok’s wedding.When all brothers were gifting newlyweds royal presents as silver, expensive fabrics, pearls - So’s gift is a tree that blooms flowers and bears fruits. When other brothers provided some materialistic goods that they think will come in handy for a new family, Wang So thinks about the spiritual aspect, about something that brings emotional comfort. Maybe it’s all because of his past. I can imagine him as a teenage boy, who when he has an opportunity, leaves the Kang’s residence, maybe to train with general Park and when he needs to rest, he sits under a tree. And at that moment they are no pain, no suffering, just wind blowing around him and spreading flowers’ and fruits’ aroma, it soothes him, comforts him, gives him warmness that he extremely lacks. That what Soo became for So. With her he could be himself, forget about the weight of his problems and worries. She brought him peace and calmness, accepted him for who he was, became his true friend and love of his life. How symbolic it is.  “Whenever I come to you, all my problems seem to become lighter.”

i want to learn sword fighting

Honestly that's so fuckinggg annoyinggg ughhh

whenever i click the cc button on a youtube video that clearly has a high budget and is made by a fucking studio and i see “english - auto generated” i spit daggers from my eyes and mouth at whoever decided to not pay someone to make actual captions

for you, what were the most beautiful aspects of SoSoo?

ah, i love this ask and honestly there is so much i love about SoSoo but these 4 are the things that literally make my heart hurt:

Soo picking up So’s handwriting: The drama really didn’t do this aspect enough justice, and it felt like a minor throw in for drama. But to me it was so much more than that. She loved him so much that she ended up having the exact same handwriting. For years on end, she would write out his words to her because even if he wasn’t there physically, his words became ingrained in her soul and part of her being. And I just find it beautiful.

Soo imagining So’s presence: This completely shattered me. She literally went about her last days pretending he was there with her. And if an outsider saw her smiling they’d think she’s happy and has moved on, when in reality the only way she can cope is by pretending that he’s there with her. 

So’s unfaltering loyalty: Once he started trusting her, he never truly stopped. Not when she didn’t trust him, not when she lied to him and not even when she wrote in an unknown language. He was completely and utterly devoted to her.

So’s determination to reincarnate and find her: This man has literally gone through hell, and will live his in complete loneliness, but its the thought of meeting Soo again in the next life that keeps him going through the pain.
