a subtle masterpiece

raw, intimate and delicate. it's tender and romantic and handles uglier topics in a genuine way. the music, cinematography and script were great. lovely use of light, colour and silence. the actors fit like puzzle pieces. more than plot it's driven by emotion which gives everything this subtle, quiet feel. perhaps to a fault for some viewers but i thought it captured the fragility of relationships really well. it's a drama to watch when everything surrounding you is loud, it feels like wearing warm earmuffs in the snow or sitting under the shade of a tree in summer. it didn't try to be more than it is yet it resonated with me and i feel like it would with some others too. in its simplicity i think it's one of my favourite dramas that builds and gives layers to each character, showing their flaws and strong points. i'll shut up now but i personally love this drama so much. hwang daseul has yet to disappoint.

mediocre but a decent watch

im not sure why people are claiming there are no new scenes in the movie when in especially the second half there are loads. it focuses a lot more on their emotions and psychological state thanks to the added scenes. we also get to see more of them being sweet together. whilst the film is smoother and more explanatory i will still call it mediocre for south korea's bl productions so far. it's a decent watch with some good dialogue, especially between youngwoo and his father. speaking of, for me, youngwoo carries this film. the actor is great and his character is definitely the best out of the cast imo. i also don't really find it confusing like others say but maybe that's just me. overall give it a shot if you have time to spare. it's not great but there's some good in it.
