beautiful bittersweet drama

This drama was quite the build up to then pull at your heartstrings. it begins with a typical premise interaction between a chaebol and a down on her luck heroine. However, in this case, they really give her a bag of lemons that just won’t make a satisfactory pitcher of lemonade to give her the fairytale ending.

Don’t want to spoil too much other than once they get you in the cathartic state of emotional upheaval and the tears start coming down, they do not let up. the light tones they add in between the heavy hearted moments just adds to it (at least for me) and made me bawl all the more.

as I got to the final minutes I was hoping for some crazy deux ex machine moment to save the day but no such luck. It closes with a somewhat open ended ending but you know what is really going to happen and the creative team decided to have some mercy on us and leave it at that.

Anyways, I definitely recommend it if you’re fine with something that isn’t quite light hearted and are ok leaving a little sadder and introspective than when you came.
