I had finished Mr. Sunshine a couple weeks prior to watching this short drama, and I was craving more historical romance with a tragic ending. This drama also came in handy since I binged it on a long bus ride when I was on a road trip. To keep things short and simple, it was not the tear jerker I sincerely hoped for it to be. Shin Hye Sun and Lee Jong Suk are some of my favorite Korean actors (Shin Hye Sun is actually my favorite actress), and I loved watching them on screen together. However, the storyline just didn’t do it for me. It was pretty dull and dragged out way too much, to the point where I had to check the time remaining in each episode every few minutes out of boredom. The romance, strangely enough, actually ended up being extremely rushed, and I genuinely felt absolutely zero chemistry between Shin Hye Sun and Lee Jong Suk. I’ll give it a higher than average rating for the actors and the beautiful directing, however I wish the storyline was less dull at times. Overall, I would still recommend this to anyone wanting to break out of their comfort zone and try a new genre. This is a short enough drama that I don’t regret watching it in the slightest, despite some obvious drawbacks.
