The Fierce Wife

the tv series

This is a Taiwanese drama series that I've watched in 2011 and I can highly recommend it to everyone. When I learned that there's a season 2 of this drama, I immediately searched for it but I discovered that it is not a series but rather a movie now. Still, it is the continuation of the story in the series. It is not shown yet in many countries but I do hope it will also be shown in the Philippines even just on television for those who have loved the series to see. The title of the movie is the same adding the last chapter of the drama. The Fierce Wife Final Episode

The story of this drama is about a happy married life of a very good housewife, an almost perfect wife whom I believe every man wants and a responsible and kind husband who turned out to be a cheater after they took care of the housewife's cousin. Though it may seem like it is like the other infidelity shows that are being aired nowadays in Korea and also in the Philippines, what I like most in this drama is the delivery, the story, the characters, the complication of the situations, the lessons, the acting and also the song though I can only understand it through its melody. I am always moved in every episode I watched and I always think of what if I were in the shoes of An Zhen (the wife). I also feel the other characters as if I were them. Every happening leaves a mark on me and it breaks and touches my heart. The story seems so real. 

What I liked most in this drama was when An Zhen decided to have a make-over, started her career and dropped the thought of getting her ex-husband back. Thanks to Lan Tian Wei a young executive of a car manufacturer who helped her get through all her hardships and fell in love with her regardless of her status, age and everything she went through. And when his ex-husband was asking to reconcile with her to start all over again but she disapproved. This time I feel sorry for the husband but if I were An Zhen I would likely do the same to him cause the scar was already imprinted and though he make up for all he had committed I don't think I can be happy again the way I did before because the pain was so deep and its not an easy to forget experience. But looking at Rui Fan's side (the ex-husband) it was really a remorseful thing that he had lost everything after realizing or learning that his true love was really An Zhen. 


the movie

The ending of the series which was continued in a movie through The Fierce Wife Final Episode started four years later after her divorce with Rui Fan. An Zhen became more beautiful and became an assistant manager in Hyatt hotel in Taipei. Still, Tian Wei was pursuing her but she cannot decide yet because of her fear to experience again what her marriage with Rui Fan had become. But finally in the end she got the courage to pursue her happines with Tian Wei. Her ex-husband who have thought of rekindling with her again wasn't able to continue anymore  after meeting his son with Wei En (the cousin who wrecked their marriage). At the end he was left with his daughter with An Zhen because they've let An Zhen pursue her happiness this time (with Tian Wei). Wei En and his son didn't stay too long and left for US. 

The ending is still sad for Rui Fan and their daughter. Though I do not want An Zhen to get married again, I also do not want her to lose Tian Wei. What a sad sad ending for the ex-husband. This will be a great lesson for husbands out there. Wives out there I think its best if you watch it together with your husband. Hehe.



Of course will I not share the song I loved in this drama? There's also a good one in the movie but I highly prefer this one that's in the series. There's none with scenes in its mv lets just get the meaning of it. I;m not really sure of the title if its Zhi Wang. Anyway this is a good one.
