The age difference is huge in comparison to the usual and it's even more between the leads in real life, which was the reason for my initial doubts before watching the show. Luckily, I was proven downright wrong. THE CHEMISTRY BETWEEN THEM WAS THROUGH THE ROOF. LIKE DAMN. IT WAS SEXY AS HELL AT TIMES, ANGSTY AT TIMES, UNBELIEVABLY CUTE THAT IT GAVE ME CAVITIES AT TIMES.. JUST WOW.
And Park Seo Joon has now sealed himself as my ultimate favourite korean actor; he's very talented. His acting skills, incredibly varying facial expressions - plus the fact that he sings the most heart-wrenching song in the show (sobs his voice is beautiful). I loved him in Kill Me, Heal Me & I loved him in this show. His character Dong-Ha, is quite literally Mr. Perfect and every girl's dream guy. I found myself sighing countless times at how sweet the guy truly was.
What's more is that I even rewatched this show right after I finished watching it! I NEVER rewatch dramas, since I'd rather spend all that time watching another drama. So this was the first time I've rewatched a drama from beginning to end. I admit, I skipped through Polar Bear's scenes the second time around (the 2nd male lead), yet relished all the Dong-ha angst scenes he brought out of him at the same time. The sexy and cute scenes between our leads led to multiple rewatches haha
Anyways, it's quite an underrated show, and more people need to see it. What are you waiting for? Give this drama a watch, I HIGHLY recommend it :D
