Lacking

I loved this series—warm, tender, deep love story. Lacked to show intimacy though considering the length of time the lead guy has loved her - 20 years. They live together too so they should have had more intimate scenes like passionate kissing at least. And it doesn’t have to look distasteful. Secretary Kim’s bed scene was artfully not lustfully executed. The fact that this was lacking in this series, diluted the love story for me. It just does not make sense to not show an intimate, passionate scene given the circumstances: his enduring love through all the years and them cohabitating now. It’s just unrealistic that nothing physically passionate is shown. And it didn't explain why he didn't know that she has fallen on hard times for a whole year without him knowing, given the fact that he always drives to her house when he gets drunk. He didn't get drunk for a whole year I guess (???!!!) But they didn’t meet for lunch, even once, in that one year after her divorce? That’s odd considering how deep their friendship is. Hmmmm.
