It's a big mess! A disappointment!
As a fan of the original webtoon, I'm so disappointed with this adaptation. It's totally messed up! A lot of changes just don't make any sense. It's just full of cliché, tropes and dumb plot holes. I just couldn't stand them.I got so mad how they even changed Ji Eum's first life. I really love the sibling interactions between Ji Eum and Do Yun in the webtoon and I really hoped they at least kept their past together, it would be so much fun, but it didn't happen. :(
Eventhough I really adore Ahn Bo Hyun and Shin Hye Sun, they are not Seoha and Ji Eum in my mind and I didn't see any chemistry between them at all. It's not because of their acting. They are great actors and actresses, but they just don't fit the characters. Seoha and Ji Eum are much more badass in the webtoon. And also, Shin Hye Sun is 10 years older than Ji Eum, a 23-year-old woman. That makes even less suitable for the role.
I just finished the drama just for the cast only. They did a great job in a bad drama.
Now I'm worried for another webtoon adaptation from the same author: It's a good day to be a dog. I really want to see it with the live-action version, and I also love the cast. But I lost hope after finishing this series.

A supposedly great drama was badly ruined
Watched it while it was on-air. I really loved it in the first half. It really had potential to be a masterpiece, if they kept the original plot as the webtoon, which was already very popular at that time.But they ruined the series in the worst way. They changed the original plot and without asking the author and cut Park Hae Jin (the male lead) out of the series and replaced his scenes with the unknown second male lead's, while Park Hae Jin was the reason why a lot of people watched this series when no-one else in the cast was well-known back then.
The author and the series's fans got so angry back then, including Park Hae Jin who was also a big fan of the webtoon. But I can't rate it 1 at least for Park Hae Jin's efforts. Then to make up, the author asked Park Hae Jin to remake the webtoon into a movie version. But it's not the same. So sad for a supposedly great drama.

A little bit disappointing compared to season 1
On one hand, I feel like the final episode is a little bit rushed. On the other hand, I feel that it's good enough. The series is already long enough to end it. To be honest, I think this season is created to attract the audience. And the ending is also not as great as I have expected, after how they ended the season 1.Also, Heo Yun-ok turns into someone completely different from how she was in season 1. But I understand they do that to let Naksu remember who she really is.
The other thing I don't like about this season 2 is that my favorite actress Jung So-min never appears for at least one single scene!! They can just let her play the soul of Jin Bu-yeon like how they did in season 1 but no, they use the young actress instead, and that makes me so disappointed. I like Go Youn Jung, and she's good, but Jung So-min is really the star of the show in season 1. I feel a bit unfair that the series keeps her out of season 2.
And maybe because Naksu is now performed by a different actress, so her aura and her charisma seems to disappear in this season.
Anyway, it's still a good watch to me, though. I like the lovebird Park Jin and Kim Yeon, the Crowned Prince and his turtle, the character development of Seo Yul, and a few cool moments of Jang Uk.

Not really what I expected
It was supposedly a cute movie about love and marriage but I can't stand the message.So the male lead's almost-an-affair is nothing to be revealed? And it's considered as a normal behavior? I thought it would cause a scene between the main couple.
This man is such a jerk to me, for being over-jealous towards for no clear reason, just him being so childish and possessive, and for taking her as a bad inspiration to write poems, for ignoring her, and worst, for letting his jerks aka so-called friends embarass her and not protecting her.
I really don't think the ending is a happy ending for the female lead. She deserves so much better.

Hotaru no Hikari: It's Only A Little Light In My Life

A litter bit disappointing, but the couple is still adorable
The only good thing I want to see is the interaction between Buchou and Hotaru as a lovey-dovey newly married couple, and I believe other viewers watch the movie because of that too.However, the movie’s main focus is around some kind of a stranger woman that I don’t even bother to remember her name, and couldn’t care less about her story. She and also all other characters are annoying, and she is the worst, and the plot is weird and stupid. The movie is supposed to be their honeymoon trip, but then it’s ruined for someone not important and not relevant at all. It would be okay for me if they put the woman's story as a very side plot, not playin a big role in the plot like how it is. It just doesn't make sense.
I still give it 6 out of 10 just because of the moments between Hotaru and Buchou. They are still sweet, adorable and funny as before. It's finally a happy ending for their love story, although I expect to learn more after that. I want to see their baby!!

Great chemistry although a few things feel unrealistic
In general, it's a great love story. The chemistry of the main couple is no joke. I can feel love all in the air when the two are together. And the boy is just so adorable. ^^However, there are a few things that feel not real in this series. For examples:
First, the female lead seems too talented and confident to exist. How can she just attend a company as an ordinary employee and get promoted so fast to a manager within only 2 years, when she's a single mom and her son even has a heart disease? It means she would have to worry about him, take care of him and stay at the hospital all day every now and then. Of course she can ask her neighbor doctor to take care of him but that's the thing that feels not real. Doctors are busy all day and have no fixed fee time, and as a mom, she would worry a lot about his son when she's sick. Heart disease is definitely not a joke.
Second, the serious heart disease doesn't feel so serious. The male lead can drink some beer, run around all day with the female lead, while running is tiring even for a normal person.
Third, the kids at the kindergarten are so mean to the son of the couple and his teachers did nothing to protect him. When he had a big heart surgery. Instead of cheering him up, the kids called him a monster and bullied him and the teachers just ignored it, and the female lead also did nothing to protect his son. As a mother, the female lead also didn't protect him in some other cases. It's very strange.
Also, the supporting couples feel a bit forced, and I don't feel any chemistry between their characters. One couple is just about physical intimacy, and the other has a better story (the doctor and the ballerina) and quite entertaining, but it still feels a bit forced.
Besides, about the brother of the dead mutual friend of the main couple, he's not a kid anymore, yet immediately wrongly blamed the female lead for his sister's death just by listening to the passengers of the bus who were all traumatized in the accident? And he blamed a passenger instead of the bus driver? Normally people usually blame the bus driver first before everyone else in similar cases.
There are a few more things that are on my nerves but I'll leave it here. And because I love the main couple and the boy is so adorable, I still adore this series a lot. ^^
