You Are My Salvation

I am writing a review after ages and that itself is something which shows how much I liked this drama.
Keeping the review short and insightful I would say that first of all that the story of the drama is really good.
I've watched a lot of Asian dramas but it's been long since I encountered such a gripping story.
This is probably as far as I know the start of fame for the main leads and I guess after this drama they do need to be praised.
I have literally cried many times during their interactions in the drama and that makes this worthwhile. I never knew Jang Ki Yong was so good in expressing emotions and being my first time watching Jin Ki Joo, I was really impressed by her acting.
The way both the lead actors carried the emotions of guilt, sadness and sorrow was heart touching.
You can just see the chemistry between them by seeing them look at each other.
After seeing Heo Joon Ho in the role of Yoon Hui Jae I cant imagine any other actor performing this role better. One can literally feel the obsession that a psychopath has through his acting.

The pacing of the drama is very good and episodes being of 30 mins, you wont feel it dragging even a bit. I at times feel tough to binge watch hour long episodes of dramas but with such intense and interesting 30 mins episodes, I could easily binge watch 4-5 at a time. The story keeps flowing without any fillers or such as far as I remember.

OST of the drama is also quite good. Not one of the best I've heard, but surely good enough for me to not want to skip it.

One thing I feel about the drama is that if you start liking it then you will surely love it till the end but if you dont then it will be tough to continue with the episodes.

Personally, for me this drama is a masterpiece, and I won't compare it to any other drama. It is surely worth trying cause it is not a common story that you may find. This was an initial major role for both actors and they have their poured their heart in this drama and you will surely be able to see it.

In the end I feel no drama is a perfect 10 but everyone has their own taste and everyone has dramas they want to give a 10 to.
For me this truly deserves a 9.5
There are some parts where it might feel some decisions of leads or some things could have been different in the drama but honestly I wouldn't change anything. The ending of the drama was so meaningful and so apt for the whole story and there couldn't have been a better closure to this.

P.S. Feel free to tag me or message me if you want spoilers as I tend to avoid giving spoilers in my reviews.
