This took a long time for me to complete.

Not because it was a bad show but because it covered a lot of difficult topics against a backdrop of relaxing mountains and forests.

It's deceptive as there is this relaxing classical music and picturesque landscapes. You can get lulled into thinking that this is a sweet romance. However these are characters who are carrying a lot of burdens. Their actions and feelings are understandable but sometimes difficult to watch. There is a lot of awkward silences, and long slow looks. It can be a very sweet story but I would also say it is very bitter.

If I could critique anything I would say because they retell the story from each character's perspective, there are sometimes too many redundant scenes. I think there could have been more trimming of the scenes or flashbacks.

Overall I thought the drama was good. The leads really matured in their acting. The other characters were also really interesting and sometimes gave us a nice humorous break from all of the trauma.

I couldn't binge this show, because the story ran a little too deep for me, but it was worth watching.
