Initially started watching because of In-ha...May his soul rest in peace♥️?
‪I thought when people said this is a gay drama,they’re the lead and their relationship is defined..their relationship/plot doesn’t develop past what I was hoping. The main lead’s too. Its a cul de sac until the end. I’ve wasted 16 hours . It was okay but I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.
I honestly don’t understand what I just watched,I cannot give a form of review because it was flimsy and all over the place. It’s like they were trying too hard. I love the cast,they have great potential as actors but I just don’t understand this storyline. Somewhere along the way they lost it and I don’t know where

First let’s start with the portrayal of Koreans or Korean women rather as sexual beings,the fact that Koreans are the most conservative people and they made a drama like this showing emotions and sexual desire is amazing to witness. Shows that they are people too and there is no shame in desiring something. I like those parts a lot. It wasn’t anything slutty,it’s just how we humans are built.

Secondly,I loved how Sangtae grew as a character,as someone who has an autistic family member,witnessing some of their characteristics in Sangtae made my heart feel at ease. They are people too and living with a disability shouldn’t define their entire being. The portrayal of him being able to associate peoples feelings made my heart flutter especially when he was taking care of Munyeong,and he could tell what she was feeling.

Thirdly a new side of koreans dealing with mental illness. I won’t get too much into it but we all know it’s something they overlook.

Fourthly the relationship between Gantae and Munyeong is so complex but beautiful. They have good chemistry. They evoked feelings of loneliness and longing I didn’t know I had.

Lastly I honestly recommend this drama. It’s amazing. Please go watch it if you haven’t. I tried not to put any spoilers. The ending was so beautiful. The way Sangtae found his own path made me cry. I loved the way the characters kept developing,they weren’t stagnant. The supporting cast also didn’t feel like the supporting cast,the way they also developed without actually relying on the main characters was beautiful to see. I wish I hadn’t watched this drama because I want to experience it again with fresh new eyes.

Oh wow,where to begin? I have been postponing this drama for a while now. I actually began to gain interest when I saw a clip on twitter,an ARMY had posted it after hearing 00:00. It reminds me of “A piece of your mind” in a way,if you’ve also watched this drama you’ll see the similarities,I don’t wanna spoil it.Okay so onto the review. This drama literally tugged at my heart,it was so amazing,it wasn’t that much different from any of the dramas I’ve watched(and trust me I’ve watched a lot). I’ve lost count of how many times they broke up,I liked their little love story,I didn’t want it to end. I felt sad for Anchor Lee,imagine living your life like that not being able to forget anything? I would have tapped out long time ago,the fact that I sometimes remember my embarrassing moments and I just want the ground to swallow me up is proof enough. I’m glad that 2 years later(towards the end of episode 15) Anchor Lee has something going for him,even though he’s not an anchor. Before I touch base on the ending can we talk about this drama’s OST? The music is so good. Before I get to the good parts(jk every part in this drama is the good part), I wanted to just give my unsolicited opinion on the fact that we as a society are too hard on public figures,we throw stones at them and bring them down for things we also do in our daily lives,the fact that they had to break up and start anew because of the public made it so heavy for me to understand,why do we do this? Why are we making people’s lives hard,because they are celebrities? That’s not an excuse,everyone deserves to be happy and everyone wants love. We’ve seen so many Kdramas or Hollywood movies that depict this,it’s not just in Korea,I wish people would be so understanding.Now the moment you’ve been waiting for,the ending, I kind of sort of predicted this too. I knew she would come back(like every drama). I like how he saw her in that red car and he was happy,I wish she had turned just for a moment and see him,I wanted that for him,his smile is so beautiful. Spoiler alert:(this is redundant because if you’ve made it so far then you’ve read many spoilers) He got his job as an Anchor back!!! Kinda felt cliche didn’t it? Remember that episode where he said the drama Ha Jin was starring in was a cliche because the characters kept missing each other by hairs? Now he was in the same position,seeing her in her car but she didn’t see him,at the bookstore..and finally they meet. The look on their faces gave me goosebumps. I hated how this played out afterwards,how he didn’t see which way she went,and when she went back in to look for him. Devastating. And they meet again. In the most unexpected situation just like the drama Ha Jin was supposed to star in. The clues of the ending was sort of there. That’s their destiny. Beautiful isn’t it? “They’re destined to meet each other and fall in love”. This man is so selfless. The time she met his dad made me so sad thinking about his mom,I liked her character,wish they didn’t kill her so soon. The first time she slept over was so special, the little cute camping “trip”. So glad he finally found out how to channel his memories. They both deserved to be happy. I’m happy with the way it ended. It had a lot of pain but also happy moments. Loved it!!!
I wanted to take time to talk about the supporting actors but I have went over,I think they complimented the drama very well.
I honestly love their relationship,I have nothing to say about this drama but good things. I watched it when I was going through a hard time and it gave me strength,I think I’ll latch onto it forever,it left a very good impression on me. I hope if you decide to watch it,you’ll love it,but I really don’t know why you’re reading reviews when you could be watching and enjoying it then summing up your own opinion. If you have watched it,I hope you loved it as much as I did.
