Recently, I've felt myself going through the motions. Watching a title, checking it off my list and moving on. Dramas that used to take Hours to finish ended up taking me days. I had even started rewatching some old stuff just to fall in love with K-Dramas again.
I decided to watch this after hearing so much about it and let me tell you I was not disappointed. I laughed, I cried and I stayed up till 5am hoping to get to an episode that I feel can finally let me close my eyes. It explores the culture of North Korean which gave me a bit of Nostalgia from years ago when I started discovering Korean culture. Learning new things about Koreans, the way the speak and the way of life was always something I appreciated in Dramas.
This K-Drama Reminded me of why I started falling on love with them in the first place. They left no stone unturned and no unstaisfactory revenge arcs. It's Cliché but not so much that you know how it will end. Just enough for you to anitcipate it and get glued to your screen.
I can't say it's completely light-hearted but it sure did make me laugh. The comedic relief was added in just the right moment in just the right doses. I've given this a 9 because despite starting strong and staying interesting, it failed to completely entrhrall me till the very last second, it faltered just a bit when it came to closing out. That and I think So Dan and her lover deserved a better ending. Everyone survives the gunshot wound but HIM!!???
Either way I totally recommend this drama for beginners who want to fall in love and for Veterans who want to fall in love again.
