I should've watched sooner - Recommended!
I had this series in my watchlist for quite a while. Finally decided to watch and boy must I tell you I should've watched this sooner. This drama was incredible good despite the fact it's already 10 years old! Now, I actually expected a more rom-com like drama, boy was I wrong. I am not an easy crier I must admit, but I have cried my eyes out for poor Yoo Jung. What she went through was absolutely insane. She has all my respect and I am glad that she could recover from all that trauma. This drama was amazing and I highly recommend watching it.
However, there are a couple of things that made me have so many feelings at once. (Emotions slipped a little while typing)
- Ahn Do Hoon (Her ex-fiancé); At first I felt very mixed about him. He wasn't that great of a boyfriend and Yoo Jung was blinded by love and accepted his proposal. He hit a goddamn person and as a prosecutor he still decides to run off? Now, I understand that he must've been scared for the consequences and his job etc. but him just leaving her to die is insane. Letting Yoo Jung pay for HIS actions and not even thinking about stepping forward and instead letting his innocent fiancé go in his place really did it for me. I actually felt bad for him due to the pressure he had to face after all that not anymore. But come on, how could Yoo Jung still think that being together while and after the whole trial + imprisonment was okay like he didn't do anything wrong? She trusted him way too much and it annoyed me so much. After all this bullcrap of his and after he reached a higher title he suddenly acted all high and mighty, it disgusted me so much that each time his face came on screen I had to remain calm not dragging him 100m into the ground. Him threatening both Yoo Jung and Min Hyuk like he isn't the problem of this situation. It was so satisfying to see him on his knees, apologizing like a dog and getting water splashed over him. But Kidnapping Yoo Jung's father because his minf was sharp and regained memories made my blood boil. That man treated him as his own and even forgave him yet fear took over Do Hoon. All I can say is that I'm glad he finally gave in and hope he rots in prison. Props to the actor Bae Soo Bin for being great at his job as actor lol.
- Shin Se Yeon; Incredibly irrelevant. Imo she was just an unnecessary obstacle and I hated the sight of her. Not much to be said about her since I skipped parts of her.
- Do Hoon's mother; What a disgusting witch. Giving her grandson away with the most stupidest reason. She had no right to do so and still thought she did the right thing but visits her grandson as much as she'd like? No wonder Do Hoon turned like that, his mother is as evil and nasty as him. Hated her, absolutely hated her from the beginning. She should serve til death.
- Yoo Jung's father; He knew, he KNEEEEEEEW! Yet kept his mouth shut. It angered me, I get that Do Hoon was like a son to him or whatever but please... I love her father so much but that caught me off guard.
- Girl that hurt San (Forgot her name); AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. How could she do such thing to a baby and still begging for forgiveness while crying like a baby. Hated her.
- Relationship between that Kwang Min and Min Joo; UH WHAT? It lowkey grossed me out and was so random like I thought he was like 50 and Min Joo like 18. Idk how old they were supposed to be but glad it was only 1 scene of her holding his arm.
- Min Hyuk (I love Ji Sung); I loved him but sometimes he was so intense (I still loved it) but the car scene where he kissed her and just ate her up like it was his last meal seemed kind of like assault as she didn't want to kiss him. I might've misinterpreted it, but that was the only thing that made me go like wow step back.
- San; Not about San himself but I was so sad when Yoo Jung saw her son and wanted him back so bad and I did feel bad for Do Hoon aswell seeing your child with 2 strangers that are his parents must've been so hard to accept for the both of them. Yet I'm glad Yoo Jung chose to let him go and held that family together even though it hurts. It was definitely the right choice but also the hardest.
All negatives aside, I definitely enjoyed watching it and loved the 2 broken hearts reparing eachothers and eventually love eachother ^^ Min Hyuk was so obsessed with her that he fell for her and made her fall for him.
