"your eyes. they shine so bright. i want to save their light."

I don't know what I liked or disliked about this drama. All I know is that I cried a lot, especially in the last episodes. This drama made me question a lot of things and this drama also made me realize a lot of things.

No one wants their loved ones to die and no one is ready to see their loved ones' death. And I realized that soon after watching this drama because something similar happened to me. It made me realize that we, humans, are nothing without feelings and I am one of those of human.

Maybe, this drama is not that deep and I am being biased. But if you watch this, then I believe you will relate to a lot of these things. Honestly, that is what I like about 《The Light In Your Eyes》. It shows the most usual human emotions with a dramatic effect. At times, the dramatic effect can get a bit too much and make the drama seem rather ridiculous. But the emotions picks it up and you will be "in-touch" with the drama no matter how weirdly dramatic it seems.

The qoute I wrote as the headline is not from the drama, but I think it pretty much sums up all the female lead's feelings for her loved ones and the male lead (he is also her loved one) and most of her goals in the drama. She wants to save everyone she loves and she wants to live with them like she did before. She wishes to see the light in their eyes for a long, long time.

The female lead, in the first few episodes, might seem insecure, jealous and somewhat selfish. But as the story progresses, you will end up liking her and will find her somewhat relatable.

The male lead doesn't do much, but his presence is sad and bittersweet and his interactions with the female lead, both as young and old, are sweet, motivating and hilarious.

The romance between the female lead and the male lead is not like the other melo- romance dramas as there aren't many intimate scenes. But they became one of my favourite couple.

The family members of Hye-ja are another focus of the drama. And their interactions keeps the story going not making it boring, but rather hilarious and sad. They care for eachother, love eachother, and they gives the most comedic relief in the drama.

All the actors are known faces for me and no one disappointed me. Lee Joon-ha became my favourite Nam Joo-hyuk character and I don't think any other character can replace him. This was my second Han Ji-min drama and this made me fall in love with her acting. Her acting is so natural and she can potray any emotions just perfectly.

The music was somewhat unique because it had a classical mood in it which I don't usually see in such dramas.

I think re-watching 《The Light In Your Eyes》 would make it seem boring as the storyline would be known to you. But I feel since the drama itself mostly focuses on emotions and human growth, it will be a decent drama to re-watch.

"even if one ordinary day is followed by another ordinary day, life is still worth living. don't waste the present regretting and worrying about the future. live this day beautifully"

《The Light In Your Eyes》 wishes to follow the same goal as the quote which is from the drama. And it does a great job creating the right mood for a scene and the right emotions are provided in that scene.
