I Love This Series, But We Needed More

I don't normally write reviews, but felt I needed to for this one. Hotae and Donghee were my favorite couple from Unintentional Love Story and I loved that series in general. When I heard there would be a spinoff, with Hotae and Donghee nonetheless, I was excited.

I loved this mini series and was glad we received some more back story on the two of them. Overall I think it was filmed well and the acting was fantastic, but I have a few issues with it. They never explained the significante of the watch that was brought up in ULS. It seemed like something important then, but not so much in TTOF. Also, while we can gather why they have issues in the future, it wasn't really explained why they are so indifferent and angry with one another in the future to the point they don't want anything to do with each other.

The relationship between Donghee and his father was surprising, but felt kind of random. I definitely felt as if they could have explained it more. I thought perhaps his father realized he was gay, which was the reason he said he was "sick," but they missed executing the storyline there. Perhaps that could explain Donghee's reluctance so much with his relationship with Hotae.

I wish this series would have been longer and would have gone into more detail. It was sweet, but short, and I think we could have gotten so much more back story. I don't feel as if they fully got the justice they deserved with their storyline. It's very wishful thinking, but I hope we get something more in the future.

Side note, I loved the little cameo Chansik made. It's bittersweet to know the three previously met years before they all became friends.
