My Queen Ep 20

Episode 20 of My Queen is really good today.

My Queen episode 20 summary
Wushuang finally find out the truth that Lucas would have actually gone to the prestigous overseas medical program, if it wasnt for the fact that he gave it up for her.

The story starts after the dad left. As Lucas had understood her insecurity and fear of seperation for 2 years, he kept denying any interest in the medical program to Wushuang.. Initially she halfheartedly believed Lucas's sincere pledge that he never thought about leaving the country. However the next day, when she attended the talk, and accidentally overheard Lucas heartfelt speech about all the pros and advantages of the program, she finally confirmed her fear that she was an obstacle to Lucas future.

That night when Lucas returned home, the couple finally fought!
Lucas couldnt make her understand about how hard he is trying to allay her fear, to assure her of his unwavering feelings. He told her that he thought she had understood and thrown all concerns away when she decided to cross that 8 years gap that divides them but now she is showing lack of confidence to the point that she cares about what a staff at the store who is a stranger said. Yet she was frustrated. She told Lucas that no matter how hard she tried, she cannot bring herself to ignore the 8 years gap, she couldnt denied she cares about how other people viewed them as a couple (her being much older), or wonder when she grows older will he would ever fall in love with another girl like he had fallen for her. She finally made a horrible outburst that his love has become a emotional baggage/liability and she should have chosen her senior (the photographer).

Lucas was mad and said she had finally said the truth in her heart and left. The two broke up!

Their seperation however offers a chance for them to reevaluate their relationship. They realise how much they missed each other. Wushuang told her best friend that she truly regretted her outburst to Lucas. Her friend was first shock in that admission since Wushuang has never regretted anything in her life, and even more shock when she heard what Wushuang had said to Lucas.... On the other hand, Lucas was seeking solace at JJ's bar, and JiaJia appeared, giving some advice to him. She told him that every woman lacks courage/ confidence in love relatonship, and even more so when it comes to a guy that matters very very much to them. Lucas seemed to gain some insight from that. JJ told Lucas to just call Wushuang but Lucas said it wasnt time yet as he has not done anything to allay her fears. So instead, Lucas worked hard for a oral interview to gain acceptance to join a special medical project which is usually reserved for more medical students of more senior grade than him. This local program would be an alternative to the overseas program that can give him added breathe and knowledge he needed to advance. It was his way in action (not just words) to try to show to Wushuang that he can be a man that she can entrust her future with, for him to care for her. During the interview, he set a deep impression on the lecturers as well as his father, who also decided to himself that his son's performance has shown another side of him, and thus his view on Lucas's ability to be responsible (for someone's else future).

Wushuang and Lucas accidentally bump into each other and kinda made peace. They agreed to have dinner together after Wishuang's interview that night.....

Afterthought
This epi is good! The part when the two were fighting was well scripted. What Wushuang said is very true and one can easily understand her dilema and concerns. What Lucas said may sound very sweet and romantic about wanting to care for her, and her to trust him. However, its understandable that love isnt forever, and she is rightly concern that he can fall in love with anyone else. Yet my view is, I think she forgot that even if she had chosen any man that is older or near her age, the same thing can happen. An older man can also stray emotionally and ditch her. Love transcends all ages, so does infidelity. No one can vouch for the future, one can only cherish the present and make the best of whatever they know and have.

I cannot wait for the last episode 21!
Will Lucas's happiness be shortlived? I hope the blast wont kill her. I think it wont. I am rooting for the 2 to get married!!!!! I think it will be a happy ending. I cannot imagine it ending with one dead. It will be tooo much for me to handle!!!

WATCH

Thank you for your summary. I am actually hooked on My Queen and watched the version without subtitles even if I can't understand 3/4 of the story. I hope Wu Shuang will not die.

welcome, though its actually shorter than I like to due to time constraint.

Yeah its a super addictive romantic comedy! One of the best to date from Taiwan as far! Ethan Ruan is sooo adorable too!!

i am praying too that she doesnt die, it will be such a waste and anticlimax!!!! I am hoping that through this life-death experience it will bring them closer than ever and make them understand that every min with someone u love counts....

Let's look forward to next sunday night!!!

Since I am not from Taiwan, I have to rely on the Internet for Episode 21. I agree with you that if they kill Wu Shuang, it will be such a huge anticlimax. Still, I don't regret watching it since Ethan and Cheryl's performances were excellent.
