I love that , a book has been beautifully used as a metaphor to describe a person. The storytelling has an artistic aspect and flows almost fluidly. There is a good balance of romance, humor and all other elements to give the story a full body. The casting is really well done and the actors really lived their characters onscreen. The only thing i have complaints about is the last part of the drama, which could have been better. But overall, its a light watch with great life lessons, and more importantly , for me it substantiated my believe in books and why i should keep reading.

" I'll like you alot from here on, I'll be good to you for real.."
This is the most real love story I have ever watched in a drama..I am not a huge fan of crime thrillers and prefer slice of life over any other genres any day. But this drama is certainly not what I expected it to be.
If you are going into this drama expecting the usual thriller kdrama tropes, then get prepared to be surprised.
As this is refreshingly humane and real with so much care given to each and every character. This will make you feel everything the characters are feeling so much so that you will laugh and also shed tears of joy and sorrow with them.
I would also like to mention that both the leads are phenomenal and are really brought the characters to life! The way they portray their individual characters as well as the chemistry is exceptional.
I was already a fan of LGK , but in this drama hid acting was outstanding. I am not sure how he managed to have such control over the small changes to his expression..the switch in his entire demeanor in a matter of seconds left me in awe.
MCW's character made me look up to her, strong and independent yet vulnerable.
The morale is the best part of this drama. It's common and old but true. Even in the most darkest of times..love can shine. Strangely this drama reminded me of the song "Fix You" from cold play.
' Lights will guide you home..and ignite your bones. And I will try to fix you...'

Heartfelt!
Totally realistic and heartfelt!!This drama is a gem. As a seasoned drama buff who have been watching asian dramas for almost 15 years now. I can definitely confidently say that, this is one of the dramas we should not miss out on. I think the story, the direction and most definitely the cast are the heart and soul of this piece. I really can't think of anyone replacing any of the cast, not even the side characters. Talk about ..in the right place and the right time and the right people.
P.S I am writing this review after watching it for the third time.
