One day, destruction came into my heart.

*Happy sigh* How do I write this without giving away too much? ╮(. ❛ ᴗ ❛.)╭

*From EP 1-7*

What I loved?

Firstly: Ailee is CARRYING this drama.

My goodness. This is the first time that the first OST that plays is memorable. I would usually fall for the second or third (like in CLOY with Yoon Mi Rae), but whenever I hear "Breaking Down", I know the scene is about to be magical ✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧

Secondly: It's nice being familiar with the lead actors and their unique methods of acting.

Park Bo Young and Seo In Guk have worked together before in her dramas 'Oh My Ghost(ess)' and 'Abyss'. Although he only made 1 episode cameos for small parts, it's nice to know that they can finally be each other's leading character (。ノω\。). I first watched PBY in Strong Woman Do Bong Soon and before I knew it, I'd become a fan of her acting. I have only ever seen SIG in 'The Smile Has Left Your Eyes'. I never finished it. Even though he has phenomenal acting skills, that drama wasn't for me ┐(´ー`)┌

Now they are in DAYS and I'm getting to see a whole other side to them: PBY is really incorporating everything she's learnt along the way as an actress and it shows through Tak Dong Kyung. Sometimes she's all cute like Do Bong Soon or she's trying to make sense of the creature before her like Kim Sun Yi ('A Werewolf Boy). I really love her and I'm sure if I watch more of SIG's drama, I'll grow to love him too (*´ω`*)

Thirdly: Tak Dong Kyung's narration really hits home at some point. The script, coupled with PBY's stellar acting has me crying almost halfway into the series. She continues to cement her place in my heart.

What I hated?

How they don't release all KDrama episodes in a shorter timespan, like they do with CDramas.

*From EP 8-12*

What I loved?

One thing: The music continues to being thus drama to life.

The rest of the OSTs are making themselves known and working hard to creep their way into my heart, as well. I have now heard TXT, Baekhyun, Gummy and Davichi's voices, but "I want to be with you" by Gummy is my number 2 (after Ailee's "Breaking Down"). This drama has AMAZING music.

What I hated?

Firstly: This love triangle doesn't feel like a love triangle.

I'll admit that it got a little boring, especially those scenes with Na Ji-na, Cha Joo-ik and Lee Hyun-kyu. We all know how it should end; she just needs to get their faster. I'm not buying that NJN is torn between two men. I want more for her. I want better. Their storyline would fit better in a CDrama than a KDrama.

Secondly: Amnesia, really?

That's all I'm gonna write.

__________

From EP 13-15

What I loved?

Firstly: Again, the OST. At this point, youll just have to listen to it on your own.

What I hated?

Firstly: The "love-triangle". My goodness, did that take too long to end. By episode 10 I'd decided on which guy she should end up with. I already knew what needed to happen and what needed to be said. All of those moments between her and not-her-guy were soooooo long and soooooo very boring. Why hadnt all of that taken place by episode 13? Not-her-guy was just absolutely ridiculous, at this point. Did he really think he could win???? Really????

Secondly: The way he left. I wish they'd taken a different direction and made her leave instead of him. That would've been cool. IDC how it would make sense, I just know it would have been an amazing plot twist. Too many things were predictable in these episodes.

*EP 16*

I LOVED EVERYTHING AND HATED NOTHING. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. LOVE LOVE LOVE.

Thats how you write an ending, drama people. PLEASE. We need more endings like this.
