It’s by no means an easy or light watch as it does deal with some heart heavy themes but it’s the one of the most beautiful watches I’ve committed my time to. There’s so much to love about this show but I think it ultimately comes down to one thing – the attention and care given to each and every aspect of the drama as a whole. You can just tell that everyone involved didn’t just do something for the sake of it, but that real consideration and thought went into every action, every expression, every dialogue, every shot and frame, and every piece of background music to tell a story as a whole. The beauty of the cinematography alone makes you want to watch every scene five times to just absorb everything in and then trying to catch the beauty of actors’ expressions and dialogue delivery makes you want to watch it on repeat another five times. The entire cast really smashed this one out of the park but I’d give a standing ovation to Lee Sung Kyung and Kim Young Kwang especially – I’d even say this is probably their best acting work to date. Overall, it’s very much a healing drama and its exploration of love, hate, family and romance really is one for the ages. It leaves a lot of food for thought and self-reflection.
This is taking a rapid turn into a love letter for the drama rather than a review, (sorry!) but I’d highly recommend it to anyone and everyone! The only footnote I’d put in is that this is one of those shows where you do have to be in a certain mood for it – a mood for melancholia and a slow moving pace/slow burn – because otherwise then you might not enjoy this/get the most out of this and find it a quite slow.
