STORY - This isn't your typical chaebol/poor girl romcom story. Yes, the male lead is "rich" and the female lead "poor", but the essence is completely different. The way their relationship develops is pure magic. The two last episodes that were "fillers", as the drama was supposed to be 16 episodes, not 18, didn't have that "filler" feeling. They used them wisely to extend this excellent story. The other couples were so unique in their own way too. The other couples' scenes were entertaining, not boring like in other dramas. Also the second leads didn't finish the story like the "bad" ones. There was good character development in them. And, the ending. What a beautiful ending that was. It was so well written. Congrats to the writers, they did really well!
ACTING/CAST - Perfect. The lead couple's chemistry was so real. All their scenes portrayed the feelings incredibly well. The cheesy ones, were cheesy but not overly cheesy. The arguing ones felt real. And the hot scenes, were HOT. The passion in them was unbelievable. The other actors did really well too. My favorite was Ye Ji Won as Park Do Kyung's sister. All her scenes were funny and/or touching.
MUSIC - I've downloaded them all on my phone. As I'm more of a balladeer, my favorite song is "If It's You", but all the other ones were excellent and fitted nicely with their scenes.
REWATCH - I don't usually rewatch dramas, but this one is so good that I see myself rewatching this soon.
OVERALL - As I said above, I think this is my favorite drama from all time. It had everything, even the psychological part that I like so much and it's usually non-existent in romcoms. Also the moral of the story for me is that we should try everything we want to do, so that we don't regret it later. That touched me and changed my way to see life. To end this review, the phrase in the ending: "Please live. We are grateful that you're alive" touched me so much.
Everyone who's thinking of giving this a go or not, do it! You won't regret it. :)
