It’s like watching a slice of real life
I watched this drama because of Jung Ryeo Won. She’s so cute in Witch at Court and Wok of Love, and here she shines as well too! Here she’s portrayed as fun loving but vulnerable on the inside, and I love how she made the decision to let go of the director even though he came back for her, because she knew that this kind of relationship isn’t what she wanted. So often we end up going back to relationships that wouldn’t work because we wanted the love but deep inside we know the love that is promised us will never satisfy us. I love how strong Park Ri Hwan is in this show and how loyal he is to Hyeng A. The rewatch value is really high because there are so many issues portrayed that resonated with real life and stirs up a lot of emotions that are hidden. Very very good show. I just love everyone here! Can’t bear to see the show come to an endVond je deze recentie nuttig?
1- The rating is not reliable
2- This drama is a beautiful friendship drama between everyone. You get to appreciate it more and more as you watch more episodes. It is funny, sometimes some characters are frustrating but with understandable intentions. As a bonus, the music is cool. It is, in summary, a warm type of drama. Don’t let the lack of events steer you away from this drama from the start if you like this type of drama; it is a hidden gem.

This was the most different drama I've watched. I got involved in the story, I really like the OST (I might say it is my favorite OST in any drama ever). As it was mentioned before, it has lots of indie vibes. The director went to different ways sometimes, and it's not just another drama. It was made to be different. I think it is poetic, adorable. And besides some drama it may contain, most of the time you are just happy with them. It's impressive how Lee Dong Wook can have chemistry with any romantic partner. Jung Ryeo Won was bright and so uplifting, I wanted to be her friend. I wish the world had more people like her. Park Ri Hwan is also a happy and playful guy - different from most of Lee Dong Wook serius characters. It was good to see him acting like a playful, good vibes and attentive person. I specially love the last lines. It was a little weird at first because of the brother and sister thing, but as long as you keep watching, you'll see that they were never like siblings, and they ever had some kinda of different affection from each other. It's delightful! I really loved the direction. Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
To live everday like its your last day
I will definitely recommend my drama lover friends to watch this drama.Its basically about overcoming impossible to avoid hardships in life.Sometimes thinking about not just yourself but others. Trying to be happy for others.Instead of being hapoy just today ,being hapoy tomorrow and yesterday too. The two main characters initially thought that only when they could let go each other could they make others happy. But they were meant to be together. And as they went back together ,it actually made everyone around them.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Beautiful, realistic and heartfelt depiction of developing relationships and family
Wow, I was completely surprised by how much I loved this drama. I didn't expect to feel as attached to the characters and story as I did when I finished the drama, and I didn't expect it to leave such a mark on me and feel so much in my heart. Maybe I was just in the mood for it, but this drama absolutely left a great impression on me and stirred so many emotions. I am going to miss this drama and will probably watch it again someday for the feels and the comfort and for the reminder that there is sunshine after the rain.Upon finishing it, I realized that the main characters and several of the side and background characters come from less-than-perfect family backgrounds, and despite having some hardships and tragedies they have been able to make and find their own type of support network and happiness among themselves. I don't think I realized this as I was watching it but towards the end I found a lot of beauty in this and the way it was illustrated. They don't focus on this during the drama, it's not until the end that it became apparent to me.
The romance itself and the chemistry between the leads is so natural and feels so real. I felt like I was an observer watching everyone's lives unfold in front of me and the blossoming of the relationship. The writing for all of the characters is really consistent and real, and everyone just behaves like normal, imperfect human beings. The way all of the relationships are depicted just feel very... ordinary. The dramatic moments and the characters' reactions to things feel very true to life. I felt like I was living through these characters and I felt like I have experienced some of their emotions before in my own life experiences. These are "older" than typical kdrama characters and are established in their careers, family, and social lives so I felt like I could relate to them a little more also.
I like also that the concept of a family is different for everyone and isn't limited to just blood, and that blood relationship families can still be flawed but still have its own importance as well. This is so important and I think this drama did such a beautiful job portraying this in different ways - through friendships, through found families and even through coworkers. I have a great family, but I also have found family through the support of friendships and coworkers as well.
Lee Dong Wook and Jung Ryeo Won are so likable as the characters they portray and they have amazing chemistry. They're both in their 30s but they retain the playfulness in their friendship that makes you really believe they grew up together and are the best of friends, and their interactions together gave me so many feelings and reminded me of my own friends-to-lovers experience. They're both charming and kind people and I loved seeing their journey together as well as their interactions with other people. They're not over the top, but it's clear they are both emotionally sensitive characters with good hearts.
There are some tough episodes to get through but it plays out like a real life event - having to struggle and work through the emotions and feelings to get through them and come to a place of peace. Overall, it was such a lovely watch and I highly recommend to anyone looking for a mellow, beautiful true-to-life style drama with not a lot of conflict.

Incredible show
Incredible show that really brought the feels. It deftly handled comedy, romance, and heavy family drama. The characters are so rich and well developed, even when their behavior is infuriating, you always understand why they behave the way they do. The two leads have insane chemistry and I was so emotionally invested in seeing them overcome their traumas and get their happy ending. This show looked like a million bucks too: everything from the lighting to shot composition (the split screens and montages were so well done!) to the set design to the occasional use of whimsical animation created this dreamy, swoony aesthetic that made the drama feel so warm even during its saddest moments.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Hermosa química
Es un drama que siento que no quiso ser el mejor drama de todos pero que cumplió mucho mas de lo que prometió. No tenia ninguna expectativa cuando lo empecé a mirar y casi que lo inicie por descarte pero es una de esas lindas sorpresas que no esperas pero que cuando llegan se siente lindo .La historia esta desarrollada algo simple, en algunos casos, es donde mas deja que desear pero que cuando toma como hilo principal el Alzheimer se empieza a disfrutar mucho mucho mas.
La actuación del cast es sin dudas el punto mas fuerte del drama y el porque te vas a quedar hasta el final, no hubo un solo personaje que no pusiera su granito de arena para que este drama sea disfrutable. Hicieron sentir cada una de las emociones que quisieron transmitir tanto negativas como positivas.
La pareja principal de lee dong wook y jung ryu won me pareció perfectamente hermosa nunca dejaron de hacerme sentir cada momento de dolor que tuvieron que atravesar como también su faceta de pareja, el brillo en los ojos que ambos tenían cuando tenían que ponerse románticos me atrapo perdidamente, tenían una complicidad que podía atravesar la pantalla.
(Fanático de estas relaciones en las que pueden ser unos niños y cursis sin importar su edad, creo que toda relación necesita esto.)
También quiero hacer mención de lo cómico que podían ponerse todos los personajes a lo largo del drama pero el que mas me impresiono fue lee dong wook, es una faceta de el que no conocía y me encanto, este es el 4to o 5to proyecto que veo de el y con este me considero un fan mas de su carreara.
