Saying the ending to The King’s Woman is a waste of time is dismissing the characters’ fundamental personalities. He killed her because, yes, he had a goal. But like she had pointed out, as a king and in his past, he never had anyone to rely on or trust. I agree, not everyone had to die. But war and hate lets out the ugly in people and that’s what happened to a lot of them. But he still told her he loved her, and she understood that. That’s how she got him to kill her, tragic as it is.
Lol, when I said, “waste of my precious time,” it was used more like a saying instead of being literal. I had just finished watching the last episode and had to blow off steam ...
