Don’t get carried away by the bad reviews.

Unlike most reviews I’ve read in this site, I actually enjoyed watching the drama. It had its flaws, for sure, but I don’t think it deserves the hate it received.

What I love about this show is how realistic it can get when it comes to a love that ends due to simple misunderstandings. It shows you how pride and anger can get in the way of a lasting relationship.

I also feel like it was a brilliant way to show ex lovers meeting years later. It shows us the effect of maturity on how people start to view their relationships.

The love “quadrangle” wasn’t even toxic. They don’t leave you guessing for too long on who’s the father, because even in the early episodes, one candidate’s true identity is already revealed. It doesn’t take on the annoying damsel in distress with many guys fighting for her plot, if that’s what’s stopping you from watching it.

I also loved how the fatherless child played a central role in finding her true father. She was such a joy to watch.

Again, it’s not a perfect show. But I truly believe it doesn’t deserve the hate it’s getting.
