While\u00a0<em>Will Trent\u00a0<\/em>has killed off characters\u00a0before, this one came as a pretty heartbreaking one. And fans were certainly taken aback with it, but Sohn is reacting to the fan response.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"elk-12a2ed1c-22a0-4973-a211-1ca8b9ee3df3-2\">In the final minutes of last week\u2019s episode, \u201cThe Bleak Expanse of Nothing,\u201d\u00a0Will found Amanda stabbed to death\u00a0after she went off alone to trail someone seemingly connected to a cult-like group devoted to serial killer James Ulster. Since the episode aired, there have been many fans to take to social media to share their thoughts on it, as well sweet messages to Sohn, who had been on the ABC procedural since the beginning. Over the weekend, Sohn broke her silence on her beloved character\u2019s death with an\u00a0Instagram reel, addressing the touching comments she\u2019s been getting:<\/p>\n<figure id=\"elk-e31a7c55-a393-4777-b0df-99748ea045ac\">\n<blockquote>\n<p>I have been so touched, just so taken with the response to Amanda\u2019s passing, just some of the long paragraphs that you all have been commenting. Those of you who can really feel what I put into the character, what I put into the work. And I just learned I have long-term fans who have been sort of following what I\u2019ve been doing, what I\u2019ve been trying to do with the work. And that was surprising and really, really satisfying because that\u2019s really why I do it.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/figure>\n<p id=\"elk-fe0edc7f-5d60-44f4-bdba-a4b31de3314a\">It\u2019s always hard saying goodbye to a beloved character, especially when no one was expecting it. It can be assumed that ABC has been getting some not-so-nice comments from fans in the last six days since the episode aired. But it also seems like Sohn has been getting even more sweet comments from fans, which has helped the fact that she\u2019s had to say goodbye to Amanda so prematurely.<\/p>\n<p>Sohn reflected on her acting career and life experiences, saying that she does the work she does to touch fans, hoping that they grab onto her experiences. And while fans won\u2019t be able to see her as Amanda Wagner, she is certainly not going anywhere any time soon:<\/p>\n<figure id=\"elk-1ead2b1a-4284-490e-95ef-4294d6db05b2\">\n<blockquote>\n<p>I am so sorry that you\u2019re gonna be able to finish the journey with Amanda. But just think of it this way: We live in such a time that you always need to be in touch with me. now. And our relationship should become much more personal. I\u2019m here. I have projects lined up. This is amazing. Airewaves aren\u2019t going anywhere. They\u2019re getting broader. And it\u2019s time for me to tell my own stories. I\u2019m in the next act of my life, and in this gig, I\u2019m tryna walk out the door. But I\u2019m not walking out the door before I accomplish what I came here for.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/figure>\n<p id=\"elk-14640397-813f-4f90-b2cf-074f95ff5359\">Seeing the show move on from Amanda will be hard, especially since there were so many stories left to be told for her. Amanda\u2019s death also came not long after\u00a0<em>Will Trent\u00a0<\/em>secured a Season 5 renewal, making the death even harder to bear. The fans are obviously not taking the death well, but at the very least, Sohn knows how much she and Amanda are loved.<\/p>\n<p><span><\/span> <span>Post Views:<\/span> <span>9<\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Warning!
