Left w/ a broken heart

What an experience.
Okay forgive me as i don't really know how to properly sort out my thoughts given that things ended the way that it did but i'm going to try.


The beginning was VERY confusing for me. There were times when i was constantly questioning if i should still stick around and watch what happens next.
Moo Young was a character that was hard to understand. His decisions were mostly random, and i didn't understand majority of the decisions he made before Jin Kang.

Jin Kang on the other hand was close to normal albeit too damn nice to people.

What i loved about their relationship is that it didn't happen fast. It took time for them to realize how they felt and i appreciate that while their love blossomed, their characters developed too.

I would also like to mention Jin Gook because yes he is a very devoted brother but i could not understand his hostility towards Moo Young (things got better towards the end, but they shouldn't have made him look crazy in the middle. There was even one point where i was almost creeped out by his actions)

All in all the characters were amazing.
They were a bit hard to understand at first, but i was able to understand them as i got to know the story behind their pain and their questionable actions.

This was a good watch, albeit the tragic ending.
I kept on questioning why they had to end it they way that they did, but i don't think it could've ended any other way after everything that happened.
