What an absolutely fascinating dive into not just a relationship with others but with oneself.
Every once in a while the K-Drama world delivers something totally unexpected. This is one of them...As someone who is into human behavioural psychology, this was such a fascinating dive into not just a relationship but the way our different cells 'run' us. I could really relate to the different cells and they are definitely the stars of the show, If you start watching this and you don't see the point of the cells (animation) then you are missing the whole point of the drama...it's a deep discussion presented in a very simple way and definitely gave me food for thought.The cast really did a fabulous job of bringing it to life too. The OST was off da chain, I don't normally notice the music but this one I quite liked. altogether I give this a 10 for originality and carrying off something different successfully in my opinion

Powerful story or just Upsetting, can't decide...
Yo! this Drama!! I had to watch several other dramas to calm down from watching this drama. It has a sad ending and all but it left me more angry than sad about the injustice of it all and how pointless it all was in the end! Like I was seriously upset for days! Even watching the sequel didn't completely take the anger away 'cos it only confirms that a century later history has this kind man down as a villain!I like my romance to come with confessions, some kisses (well-executed ones please not those lame-assed ones) and some cute fluff n stuff at the very least! If that's you...back away slowly from this one! I also don't usually do tragedies and thought I'd make an exemption with this one...sigh I shouldn't have!
Don't get me wrong, it deserves its high rating and I gave it an 8.5 because according to the rating criteria - Story, Acting, blah, blah, blah, it's all top-notch. Just don't come expecting to finish it with a big smile on your face and a warm feeling in your belly...jeez, I guess I'm still a little upset so I'll stop here!

I came looking for a cute heartwarming drama and I got exactly that. Beautifully done!
You know a drama is good when it has all the usual tropes and cliches but you still absolutely love it!It's a little predictable but you still enjoy watching it unfold. The leads were just so adorably natural that I believed them.
It's a slice of life/coming of age romance that gave me lots of smiles. I especially love the way the happy and the sad were interwoven to produce a heart-warming story.
Were there areas that I could criticise? I'm sure there were but seriously, this is one of the few dramas, I can't remember any points 'cos I was too caught up in the story and acting to care.
And may I just make a special mention of the ML's voice!!! Dunno if it was really him or if he was dubbed but I really REALLY loved the voice (so much so it made me overlook the hair!😜)
