This drama highlights Park Bo Gum's acting limitations. He seems to be aiming for artless and sincere but I think that he overshoots the mark and lands somewhere between airhead and simpleton. I got tired of seeing that one goofy grin plastered on his face as he wandered all around Cuba. His drunk scene was completely unconvincing. I have no idea what Cha Soo Hyun saw in him. Am I the only one wishing that Cha Soo Hyun could end up back with her ex-husband? But then I had a hard time figuring out what she thought about anything.

I'm sure you've heard this line before when a boyfriend dumps his girlfriend..."it's not you...it's me.  This drama had a great storyline, the cinematography excellent and it fits right up my "all I want in a drama" category.  But...in spite of all the positives that I gleaned from watching the first few episodes, I could not continue.  I know, it's not the drama....it's me.  I felt Park Bo Gum was miscast.  He's too young and his face, although handsome, was a little bit effeminate for the role.  Song Hye Kyo as Cha Soo Hyun portrayed a character so controlled and stoic so I thought that what she needed was a more passionate man that would awaken her from the placidness of her life.  The encounter or love story between Cha Soo Hyun and Kim Jin Hyuk lacked the intensity I expected and without that, the rest of the drama became a meh for me.  There was a total lack of chemistry and they looked more like an elder sister and younger brother.  I'm not concerned about the age gap because it does work if the characters have the right chemistry to make it work (to this day My Name is Kim Sam Soon is still my favourite K drama).  A So Ji Sub, Jo In Sung (think What Happened in Bali where both were fighting over the same woman)  or a Lee Dong Gun (Love Now) would have been perfect for the role.  They're not only gorgeous but they have the depth and ferocity to portray a man deeply in love with SHK's character.

~Kim Jin Hyuk :One of the best k-drama male leads to ever exist. Gentle, non-toxic and supportive to the end
~The romance made me feel super fuzzy and happy. It was so intimate, pure and poetic even
~I wasn’t too impressed with the FL’s acting. I found her to be bland and expressionless.
~Slow paced at times and there is not much to the storyline except two people falling in love and trying to make it work among various externalities
~The mothers were really annoying and unlikeable, borderline controlling especially towards the FL. They were the biggest turnoffs in the plot line for me
~The plot drags towards the second half and you end up wishing there were more fillers to the story
~The Cuba scenes were amazing and what got me into the drama. Beautiful OST that matched with the cinematography.

Ameiiiii ?

Admito que comecei a assistir só porque tinha os maravilhosos Park Bo Gum e Song Hye Kyo, mas acabei amando.
⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀
Nesse drama as fotografias, e os cenários, principalmente as cenas em Cuba, são encantadoras, assim como a Ost maravilhosa que tem.?
⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀
O bom desse dorama é q ele foge um pouco dos padrões de dramas de romance, já que nesse é a mulher que é a CEO e não o homem. Ela não é uma mocinha indefesa e sim muito madura e independente.
Assim como o personagem masculino que também não é aquele típico mocinho que interfere nas decisões dela, muito pelo contrário ele foi super companheiro.
⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀
Foi maravilhoso ver o Park Bo Gum falando em espanhol e inglês ?.
⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀
Acredito que esse seja o 1° drama filmado em Cuba.

Sadly, The Fantasy Wore Off

I was genuinely enjoying this. Specifically for the romantic fanstasy. Park Bo Gum being the perfect guy who says and does eveything perfectly. Park Bo Gum and Song Hye Kyo also, had really good chemistry and it made for a great love story.

But alas, even Park Bo Gum's character, Jin Hyoek started to get on my nerves and the story of the younger man and older, divorcee just didn't do it for me anymore. Way too many filler episodes and scenes. Way too many people in the way and all the mothers are terrible. Can I please just have a romantic fantasy where there are no obstacles the leads have to face to be together and don't drag out over 16 epiosdes???

I will say that they did a good job with Woo Seok, Soo Hyeon's ex-husband. Who knew that I could ever feel sympathy for the rich, chaebol she divorced. I mean yes his actions and not protecting her were terrible when they were married but I felt like he was genuinely, trying to make up for that with his actions throughout the series. The road to hell though is paved with good intentions. He definitely should have done better when they were married.

Overall I give the show a 6/10 b/c I actually loved it up until FL ends the relationship. Plus the cast/supporting characters are joy to watch.

i think i'm going to be the black sheep
when i read the summary i said to my self wow this is going to be brilliant new story

normal guy with rich elder women
then i watched :\

the main idea really was great but i think the director spoiled it cause it becomes really
very very very very slow motion drama and very detailed without real events starting from ep. 02 and repetitive

even the problems they faced wasn't serious or critical for me as it should be in reality

even the kissing scenes i didn't feel cause i thought it wasn't in it's place
like when he should just kiss her a forehead kiss he kissed her on lips
when he should hug her he just hold her hands ..etc
many times i found the romance in it lukewarm and cold which was really depressing

i liked bo gum acting sooooooo even i react a lot with his crying at ep. 14/15
i really loved his character
it was so cute and lovely but i saw it wasn't for facing strong powerful family as it should be
i thought he must be more strict & strong character than that
i saw him soft and cute most of the time

in the contrary i found hye kyo so strong till the limit of no face expressions many times
she should be more soft than that
cause love changes the character

i really loved the events between them in Cuba
these were the most lovely scenes in the drama

many characters affected their love a lot and that bothered me much

this story was detailed and shallow at the same time

i didn't enjoy much and this was really frustrating

but i liked the message it delivered
in-spite of your age difference, marital status and family materialistic level you've the right to love and be loved

Magically Sublime

The premise of romance between a high-profile woman and a much younger ordinary guy sold me to watch this show. I'd like to know how I could empathize with the two characters as their relationship blossom. And it was such a beautiful experience witnessing their encounters and journey. It somehow reminded me of those classic romance Korean dramas of the early 2000s.

Although there were flaws such as the annoying trope of villainous mother and in-laws, it's the breathtakingly gorgeous moments of love and longing that left the most lasting impact to me. The dialogues and acting of Song Hye Kyo and Park Bo Gum were all heart-fluttering, sometimes poetic. I hold my breath whenever they convey their emotions through the silence. And I can't love enough the beautiful landscapes of Korea and Cuba.

I can only describe this drama as simply magically sublime. I can rewatch this endlessly.

Mehhhh!!!!!!

Sorry folks, thought I’d love this one because of the cast but it flopped for me. I loved the scenery from Cuba and the artwork but the story fell flat for me. The MFL could have done a better job in her role and I feel like at that age she should have a bit more confidence in herself, especially with all of her achievements. I do understand the abuse she suffered from the ex-in-laws would have left it’s mark but still I feel like she could have done the role better.
Music was, from memory, enjoyable and fit the scenes.
Rewatch value I have to say I’ll probably never rewatch this one again. Unlike “Oh My Venus” or “Rain or Shine” or even “Stong Girl Bong Soon” I have too many other favorites to rewatch than to sit down and torture myself with this one. I do apologize to those who absolutely loved this one but it’s just my opinion and taste. ?

I started watching the series only because of the Lead Actress - Song Hye-kyo. I am saying this, i was-am still completely mesmerized by her. Didn't like the MALE lead though (felt like i was watching romance between two girls). No offend to the Male lead but he was more girlish in his looks behavior and yes, a bis yes, his smile - too girl like. I tried my best to only focus on Song Hye-kyo and for the most most part i did, but looking at the guy,.... Everyone has their own preferences. I left the series mid way, as it was loosing interest in the story as the romance didnt attract me. I was not drawn in by the story. Thts it folks. Enjoy.

i am sorry i needed to write review even without watching the whole drama.
well,when the korean drama industry was way too much obsessed with" rich man and poor woman" concept ,this particular drama did a reverse in roles with rich woman and poor man.
the story -is simple and beautiful .nothing too twisted except for the MFL's in-laws.two people meet in an unknown city,makes beautiful memory and says goodbye without knowing that after this their lives are gonna be tangled together and then they meet again, that's how their story begins.simple story but still addictive on it's own way.

visual-(10/10)i am sorry i needed to add this here.cause this drama is probably one of the dramas with best scenario of 2018.

acting-NO NEED TO SAY.THIS IS A DRAMA WITH PROFESSIONAL ACTORS.(lol)park bogum's smile is enough for me to melt and song hye kyo is so beautiful.her acting is so flawless that u can't help feeling sorry for her character.also it's not possible to mention every single actor so i will say they all did very well in playing their role.

music-good.(especially the background song during the sunset scene at ep 1)[spoiler]

overall-Nice.definitely needed this kinda (soothing) drama before the end of the year.u will understand if u watch it.

now the things i loved-EVERYTHING.especially,park bogum's smile,song hye kyo's asking -do u have some money?
things i hated-nothing until now .i first hated the in-laws but now i believe this is what makes the story interesting(i mean come on we need a villain ,right?)

Plotnya membosankan namun visual pemainnya bagus. Walau akting pemeran prianya kurang bisa mengimbangi akting pemeran wanita. Song hye kyo bermain sangat bagus hanya saja jarak usia dengan park bo gum yg cukup jauh membuat saya merasa aneh setiap melihat mereka berdua dalam 1 frame saat beradegan romantis. Saya sudah berhenti menonton di episode 6, tidak berniat melanjutkan lagi karena setiap nonton saya merasa mengantuk. Sayang sekali drama come back song hye kyo kali ini kurang menarik dibanding dramanya sebelum menikah. Padahal sebelum rilis sangat menantikannya tetapi saat tayang sungguh drama ini jauh dari ekspektasi awal.

En cuanto a dirección, fotografía, música y actuación, este drama me pareció precioso. En cuanto a la historia hubo ciertos aspectos que no me terminaron de convencer y clichés típicos de los melodramas que ya nos sabemos de memoria (mamá ambiciosa que aboga por el papá y su reputación; suegra mala malísima; conglomerados multimillonarios; separaciones forzosas en la recta final del drama. Y lágrimas, MUCHAS LÁGRIMAS). Nada nuevo bajo el sol.

Pero las fortalezas de Encounter/Boyfriend no pretender ser esas, sino otras, y si resulta triunfante es porque sabe en qué apoyarse. Las actuaciones de Song Hye Kyo y Park Bo Gum son buenas. El personaje de ella es menos versátil, casi seco (empresaria competente, pero sumisa con su familia política; tímida pero astuta; gentil pero férrea). El de él es todo lo contrario: tierno, infantil, transparente. Casi idílico.

La Habana, Cuba como telón de fondo a su historia de amor, es quizá una protagonista más, con sus edificios congelados en un pasado que huele a comunismo; con gente vivaz y alegre y autos que parecen venidos de medio siglo atrás. Vale la pena verlo por esos escenarios de ensueño. Ese caribe de olas que rompen en un malecón añejado por el olvido siendo testigo de un amor imposible venido del otro lado del mar.
