Very good acting and visuals, interesting story
The story is very interesting, but in my opinion it could've been developed in a better way. The writing isn't very good. At the beginning of every episodes we have to watch, sometimes even for 10min, the ending of the previous episode with additional details. In my opinion, it feels like wasted time and I got easily bored because of this.Also, they added a twist (new important information) at the last episode which could've been added in previous episodes and been developed more.
Also the OST are not very memorable, nothing special there. And I personally hated very much the OST which is played every time we see the killer...
At the end, I only kept watching because of the excellent acting of the main characters, hoping it would get better later...
So, should you watch it? If you like the actors, please watch it, but don't expect too much from the story.

All the characters are enjoyable (not at first :p) and that is possible because throughout the espisodes, we learn about their personality and about their story! And also, the characters are well developed: we cry with them, we laugh with them, we change with them!
I'm sure I will rewatch it in the future (even though I've never rewatched a drama before)!

Moreover, the actors are not that good, except for Im Joo Hwan who did a really great job with his character! I'm so disappointed with Nam Joo Hyuk, I don't think he was a great choice for this character, I think he was chosen just because he is handsome... The main characters are not well-suited, there's almost no vibes between them. And even though I din't like Shin Se Kyung at the beginning, I think she did a good job overall, especially in the last couple of episodes.
Anyway, it's not all bad! The music is amazing!!! I really loved it! And the "power" scenes (don't know how to call them lol) are really well-done!
Finally, I won't rewatch it because I don't want to rewatch a drama just for the music or because I loved some scenes :p

First of all, it's not a drama about religion (even if the male lead is a monk), so don't worry about that! Second, I have a really big concern about the story (it's not a spoiler, don't worry). At the beginning, the monk is stalking her, it's just stalking, it's not love or whatever. And I'm really concerned about that because some young girls could find it normal and if a psycho stalks them, they could think "oh, it's like in the drama, he's probably in love with me and I'm sure he's a good guy like in the drama". No, it's not like that, in real life, stalking is a serious matter and stalkers are not nice guys, they have a problem, they're not cute or in love!!!
Besides of that, it's a really cute drama, a cute love story. The actors are really good and you will fall in love with all of them.
This drama gives also really good advice (besides the stalking thing lol), like don't give up your dream for anyone, don't be afraid of expressing your feelings to your crush otherwise you will regret it, even if someone is acting "evil" he probably has some reasons, don't judge him too quickly, etc.
I only put a 7 for the rewatch value because I usually don't rewatch any drama or movie, I'm just like that.
So, just watch it and enjoy it :D
