I took a dive into this after seeing that Kfangirl Verdict had rated this an A. This did not disappoint! The plot is consistent, the story is well-paced and very enjoyable, there are no villainous characters full of spite, and there best of all, the couple comes together slowly and naturally, without any of that wrist-grabbing. And it wasn't just the main leads, I fell in love with Jennifer, with Chan's two goofy friends, and with Fang.
The kind of dramas I've come to enjoy are ones that make me think deeply about life, relationships, and family. This one manages that and much more. The main characters teach us what it means to have regrets, to bury your pain, to have hopes and to hope again after having them shattered, to grow up and to truly realize that age is just a number, to fall and get up, and keep moving. This was truly a series that moved me. Here are my two favorite quotes out of a multitude:
"People mostly fall apart because they don't say enough. They stop themselves from saying the one thing that matters." - Jennifer
"If you know what you have, you know what to throw away." - Julie Morgenstern (cited by Jennifer)
There are a tad too many coincidences, but since those are common in romcoms, I learned to overlook them. This is mainly because there are so many things about this drama that are so entertaining that one should willingly turn away from such things and just enjoy the ride.
