True Love Will Take Its Course
It has been a long time since I last saw such a perfect Cdrama. This one is a masterpiece. I hate jerk MLs. And contrary to what some viewers said, the ML is NOT really a jerk here. He was quite a cold and complex character and Arthur Chen did an amazing job portraying him. This is my first drama of him and I am quite impressed. The ML is understandable and lovable if you try to see things from his POV.The FL is my favourite. Maybe the best FL I have seen in a Cdrama. She is the epitome of STRONG. She goes against the world for the ML . And she doesn’t look pathetic doing that. She is the knight in the shining armour in this drama. Some people might call her dumb but the same people would have lauded a ML for the same actions.
The love story is BEAUTIFUL.. The build up was done right. I didn’t get bored at all which is my common problem while watching Cdramas. The banters, teasing, flirting before they get into the relationship is just chef’s kiss. The separation was truly painful. I was so touched by the FL’s emotions when he goes to jail..The ending where they get together after so many hurdles was very satisfying.
The only problem was the friend who later becomes the villain. The whitewash of his character to make viewers sympathise with him has gone wrong. Nothing can make me sympathetic towards him after what he did.

Hong Sisters did it again
The pain was worth it. This drama was so good.Story: I loved the story. It was well- written. Especially the romance part. It would have given it 10 but it seemed a bit dragged in the middle so 9.5.
Acting: Lee Seungi's acting really amazed me. This is my first time watching him and I have become his fan. None could play Son Oh Gong better than him. The comedy that the bromance served was awesome. Cha Seung Won's comedic scenes were the best. The supporting characters were all awesome, I especially liked Le Se Young acting. She pulled off two opposite characters in a wonderful way.
I do remember feeling irritated at Oh Yeon Seo's character a couple of times because i wanted to see a more stronger woman but the makers literally turned her into a damsel in distress, which annoyed me a bit.
But the lead's chemistry compensated for that. I am in love with this couple. The romance was beautiful and well acted. I, especially liked the tension between them in the starting episodes and hoped it remained like that for some more episodes. Nevertheless, its a perfect 10/10 from me for the Romance.
Music: the Music was bop. I still listen to "If we were destined" and "when i saw you"
Rewatch Value: i am already planning to re watch it. Its definitely gonna be in my top 10 kdrama list.

Oath of Boredom and Stupidity
It starts great. I was liking the banters, differences in opinions, misjudgements. Basically the whole build up was done right. Then comes the two 2nd leads. They get enough signs that they aren’t it for the leads but they are hell bent on winning over the ML &FL respectively. And if that was not enough, the FL’s friends jump into their matter with “good intentions” but make the situation worse. And the best friend keeps up that meddling till the very end. She keeps encouraging the FL to make stupid decisions throughout the whole drama.There is an age gap going on between the leads (though the actress actually looks older than the actor). The FL is supposed to be in her 20’s but she acts like she is a freakin’ teenager. She only matured up when the ML was in a medical crisis. She was likeable only in that part. The ML was the only saving grace of this drama. At the end, it got way too boring. However, I liked the ending with their kid and message to her father.
