If you're a fan of reincarnation stories, this series fits the bill perfectly. I'm definitely a sucker for reincarnation so that probably gives me a bias. Although it moves a bit slowly, the story is engaging, heartbreaking, and leaves you hoping for the best. All the actors did a great job conveying the roller-coaster of emotions throughout the series. I never had a problem with the pacing, but if you like a story that moves quickly than this might not be for you.

The story spends a good bit of time focusing on the past and present relationships between Intouch, Korn, Dean, and Pharm. You discover In's and Korn's story through Dean and Pharm, experiencing everything right along with them from both of their perspectives. It is a sad case of right person wrong time, and their story was never meant to end well, despite In's wholehearted belief that they're meant to be together. Korn gives up and leaves him alone, thus setting off a chain of events that lead only to sadness in the past. What's heartbreaking is this is a reality for some, and the families were left behind regretting their unacceptance. This drama addresses the harsh reality of homophobia, the effects of violence at home, and the connections to suicide.

In the present, Pharm and Dean have always had a feeling that they're looking for someone, though they don't know who. The connection when the two meet is undeniable, and Dean's commitment to not letting Pharm go is unwavering. It's a bit awkward at first, but the two are sweet together. To lay rest to In and Korn, Pharm and Dean must work through the past in the present, and the journey is not an easy one.

All in all, I really liked this series. It had it's light moments and it's very intense ones. The two main present characters have an extremely respectful and wholesome relationship and I'm so here for that. I thought everyone did a very good job with what they were given, save for a few awkward moments during the emotional scenes. At one point Pharm's mother and brother show up during a particularly intense scene and they seem to just know and accept what's going on. I would have like to see more on the relatives coming to the realization that the pair were reincarnations. I enjoyed it for the thoroughly, and would definitely watch it again in the future.
