An engrossing tale of a woman trapped by her own choices and ambitions. Yoo Ah In as the young man who enables her to free herself is a revelation.
In Short: This is the most emotionally involved I’ve been with a drama so far. The entire series (including the end) is expertly plotted and acted. Not for everyone, but if you tolerate some thoughtfully slow pacing, this is the melodrama for you.
Pros: Well directed, well cast, well written and beautifully shot. Through a 20 year age difference, the lead couple sizzled in a realistic way.
Cons: Yoo Ah In is significantly older than 20, and you can sort of tell. The acting (and some thoughtful styling and makeup) pulls it off though.
