i expected more.....
Overall the drama was enjoyable, i definitely expected more, the acting was great though! The plot could have been better. And more so, i am tired of the "all about kindness/ feeling guilty " mentality , i am full of it, it seems like a deja vu for me, writers need to stop using this trope, really! Hae yi really got on my nerves on the last 2 episodes for the likely the same reason. I really enjoyed Sung jae and Hae yi relationship, they were my fav! it wasn't That drama for me, wouldn't rewatch it, but it's not a bad one, just that i was expecting more.Was this review helpful to you?
Not The good chinese drama i have been looking for since 2024 started..
I must say the 40 episode length drama format was, is and will never be my type (okay never say never but damn i always force myself to finish the drama) ....So many things didn't make sense, we had really little of the romance (i wasn't there for the political plot or whatever since i knew from avenueX's review that to enjoy this drama you had to overlook that part and that is exactly what i did), and the messy ending..... I should listen more to avenueX in the future lol .After watching all 40 episodes, i kind of regret watching this show, although i enjoyed the first 20 episodes, i think it could have been better, we the audience deserved better .
That said, i think this drama is overrated for me 7,5/10, 8/10 will be too much since i saw better dramas get a lower score here, so yes definitely 7,5/10!

Best acting of 2024 as of now with a "could be better " plot wise!
To be fair, for me the rating is actually something like 8.8/10.As i said earlier, the acting is really good on this one, the whole cast did a FANTASTIC JOB, but the LEAD COUPLE was really really well casted! a round of applause to them, i think they actually carried this drama, i hope they will win a lot of awards, they deserve it.
There were too many cliches, i hope this drama was more original, less predictable....
Some characters were unrealistic, like come on, in real life this would have never happened.
The villain could have been written better. I hope Park Sung Hoon will get the recognition he deserves and maybe play the good guy next time lol.
I actually recommend it, watch it and make your own opinion of it, don't be swayed by the bad reviews. It is not the perfect drama but it is enjoyable, and Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won are the lead! like come on, what else do you need to give it a try!?

Beautiful drama !
The storyline was so beautiful, each and every episode had a powerful message to convey.Let's talk about the ost, there were so beautiful, i couldn't get it out of my head.
Every time i listened to the song "hello" i actually cried. And i did so at the end of each episode.
I will close this really short review with a quote from the last episode :
“No matter how old you get, there is always something to learn. If you think of it as a regret, then that’s the end of it but when you think of it as a lesson learned it brings a new begining".
I highly recommend it! Always love and care for your dear ones, do not take their love for granted, and live without regrets.

Another C-drama i am dropping this year! what is happening in C-dramaland!?
Sooo where do i start? yes i am about to rant.1- The first scenes were a huge dissapointment for me, like damn give us some nice CGI.
2- I really couldn't feel the chemistry between the leads and that is the reason why i am dropping this drama, i mean the plot was nothing new (the same plot that has been used and re-used several times lol) and at this point so many things didn't make sense to me (Was i surprised no lol, at least the romantic part could have saved it for me).
3- I don't recommend it, there are better dramas out there, no need to waste your time watching this, hence the rating.

Too slow for me..
From the first episode i was forcing myself to get into the story, but i couldn't...after 3 episodes i called it a quit!Acting was top notch, the main actresses and actors did a phenomenal job, that is why i tried to hang in there lol
Overall the vibe was too dark and the story was too slow to unfold and i lost my patience.
Maybe it is not my favourite type of drama, so i can't say it is bad.
for the rewatch value i just hope i can finish it lol, but i think i wouldn't rewatch it or pick it up where i left it...
I would give it a 6.5/10.

C-dramaland is really underwhelming this year
The acting was a joke (the FL, her mother ..etc i can't stand their acting), even if i usually like the ML (not in this drama obviously!) i just couldn't get into his character.The production was very very poor, like how come the dogs have a collar !? at that time??? if your are making a period drama , please do make a period drama. Didn't the bodies the FL examinated stink ? then why wasn't she hinting at it, acting like those were fresh bodies....I mean make it make sense PLEASE!
After going painfully through 5 episodes, i gracefully decided to show myself some mercy and quit watching this show.
I don't recommend it.
