Its good but with flaws
this is a very good show very very good show but there are flaws depending on what you are looking for in a dramathe very very good is the story, the visuals, the thriller portions of the show.. its very mysterious, exciting and the story makes sense.. (drama land sense -- hold realism a bit..)
the cast was great the ensemble and the 4 leads are fun together.. the push pull of the romance.. i thought was fun.. some ppl may not like it due to the coldness and brashness of the ML
the 2nd couple was much more cute definitely.. but it felt way rushed.. but fun nonetheless...
the visuals was amazing.. just so beautiful and music was just on point. too bad its not on spotify anymore but its really really good the OST
now the not so great.. i did feel the bad guy felt too comical new the end.. too cartoonish.. i mean it started great and believable but they kept stepping it up and up and up till he became the omni of bad guys.. it felt.. too much for me..
there really is no character growth.. BUT each main character did deal with the thorn in their heart and psyche.. whatever trauma that was.. for each.. at the end both dealt with it and "moved" on from it.. for me thats growth enough.. but others may not feel that way..
for me some of the setup was boring.. like boring boring.. but.. some like that.. its all business blab... so.. be warned
its really good overall for me.. even with the gaps..

Its a good show. Uplifting and fun
This is a good show nothing serious or extraordinary about it but solid cast and fun chemistry among all the actorsThe ML and FL lead shows their differences from their previous works and they work well together and look good together
The 2nd leads are great counterpoints and wish they had a bit more development but it was fun and quick
The story was ok nothing special and most of the problems went away in a few episodes... it felt like they would have a hidden secret forthe first 3rd of the series but they unexpectedly wrote it out... weird..
Overall the show is good and a nice short watch to cleanse your pallete for something heavier or just as a weekend distraction

Beautiful show and wonderful cast great fight scenes
This shows location and scenes are shot so beautifully must have been cold as heck for all the actors since the only way to shoot must have been offseason during the cold but man this show has some scenery... wowThe cast is great. The ml and fl chem is ok. The cast chemistry was great as friends and comrades in the fighting world...
The story was good.. decent. Some tropes but not too much nothing special. Curve balls u can tell but still its fun. Its all about forgiveness redemption acceptance and inclusion. With a overall theme of old vs new
Its worth the watch for the scenery itself but the story is good the cast is great even if the development of characters is uneven..

How many life lessons can be squeezed and taught in a drama
this show is a wonderful wonderful class on how to write and squeeze many life lessons in a kdrama and do it wellfrom perseverance, to learning to forgive, being truly sorry about a mistake, how one small act of kindness can change one persons life, being true to yourself no matter what, reading is good, talking is better, no one knows what your thinking unless you tell them, happiness is what you decide and not what other think... and many many others
the show blends heart ripping and wrenching scenes seamlessly with the uplifting and happy moments we all have in life sometimes.. the flow feels perfect.. ur never down too long before theres something that would make u smile or be happy...
this isnt super melodramatic.. it has its moments and it isnt laugh out loud though.. some scenes.. made me do that..
the romance is there.. but always on point.. and the chemistry of the cast.. just wow... if i had a book club like that i wouldnt miss out either
its worth the watch when ur in the mood to cry laugh and just be caught up in someones ideal village life

Fun fun fun relive your school days
This show is no frill paint by numbers make u feel good and uplift ur spirits and cheer... its unbashedly does all the tropes and does it well by the book nothing newThe cast is good. Uneven but good. The balance works. And they seem to genuinely enjoy each others company and work for.each other
The story is paint by numbers nothing here is new.and wont surprise you. Everything is done in one episode or 3. No major drama. Everything is painted in rainbows even the most dire subject of death is painted with a sheen...
The romance is standard some couples worked for me others didnt but eh... with this many personailties its.bound to be hit or miss...
Music is good touching and just at the right time.
Overall fun show. Watch it to forget life and then move on or if u need a pick me up or reassurance that sometimes life does work out
Watch it
