The way to love anything is to realize that it may be lost.

Quick Roundup on plot -

Choi Ban Do (Son Ho Jun) and Ma Jin Joo (Jang Nara) are at their wits end in their marriage as they decide to get a divorce. They got married straight out of university and found it difficult to maintain their feelings for each other after so many years of being married. Shortly after their divorce becomes official, the two travel back in time to when they first met in university. It’s a story that shows what happens after the “happily ever after” in a romance.

GO BACK COUPLE -

The show portrayed the difficulty of experiencing initial encounters, first loves, rejections, friendships, and dreams. Furthermore, a mother's and her daughter's affectionate bond is emphasized. It shows ' The crucial component for every happy relationship is required proper communication/relationship building so while you're at it, learn how to share/ exchange properly your feelings for your loved ones.
And although the plot was quite simple, its storytelling is so attractive, the writing was simply excellent and well executed that we can really feel like we were traveling with them. This 12-episode Korean drama holds a perfect pace. The writing and directing also achieved excellence in developing a drama that perfectly combined humor and meltdowns of emotion.

The main leads relationship's redevelopment( past to present) was dealt with realistically and at an enjoyable pace. They learned about their problems and matured them, they separated from together instead of just quickly deciding to dislike each other when they traveled to the past that showed but eventually they started to Love each other again that showed only Love, past or present, is the only thing that remains unchanged.

THE CAST IS SIMPLY AMAZING !

Yes, absolutely every character on this show is awesome. The characters themselves, the people who wrote them( writers) and the actors who brought them to life all worked together successfully and flawlessly.

Son Ho jun gave a standout performance in heartbreaking sequences that evoked feelings of innocence and vulnerability, similar to a before marriage situation of being arrogant, making fun of, and immature. How much he destroyed himself to pointless people after his marriage in order to feed his family, but he never told his wife about the awful reality.

Jung Na Ra the way Her portrayal of a mother( She cries every night, recalling her child while realizing that she is currently not with him. It was an intensely emotional time for all kdrama fans.) and daughter ( who never changed her love to her mom, despite realizing that it was her last opportunity to treasure their happy memories together) her acting his so endearing and natural that it will connect with many of us.

Jung Nam Gil gave a fantastic performance as a person how quiet, secretive, and reserved he was, yet it did not hinder him from expressing his feelings for the main female character.

Like other second female leads in typical kdramas, Min Seo Young wasn't crazy or jealous; instead, she was insightful and mature to her age. She was inspirational, supportive, and understanding. Her acting was amazing. ( My personal favourite second male lead ).
The supporting cast makes drama more funny at the same time it highlights the family affection especially mother and daughter emotions.

I would like to highly recommend this drama to everyone looking for a mature rom-com that emphasizes friendship, family relationships, and remembering the good old days of being in love.
