Can an imperfect show still get a 10/10? It can with me!
I have some issues with things, I wish some areas were fleshed out more, I wish the conclusion would have had more time to breathe.
However, I loved every second I watched this. I enjoyed the characters, the acting, and while I wish the plot had been... longer I guess is the right word, I still enjoyed the plot too.
I've always felt that these dramas, K and C, have amazing setups and usually pretty good middle story as well but almost always they drop the ball at the end. Endings are hard, I get that, but the frequency with which I get engrossed in a series only for it to end and disappoint me is too much. That's why, even though I don't think they knocked the ending out of the park, they at least did well enough that I can say its far in front of most other drama endings I have seen.
Overall I highly recommend this series if you enjoy good characters with depth, good action, and an overall decent ending! My favorite episodes were definitely the first batch of about 7, but I have to admit the parent's backstory episodes, 8 through 15 were incredibly well done and stand alone as great romance story's by themselves. The last 5 episodes, while not my favorite due to feeling rushed or just lacking in some ways, are still as I mentioned well above the norm of K-Drama endings quality, so even those episodes get a thumbs up from me.
