It was quite long but I stuck thru the end. My only complaint is that my favorite actor Song Seung Heon dies in this drama as well. I watched Autumn's Tale and it broke my heart with the ending as well. I just recently started watching his work and hope that other dramas that I will be watching has a different ending. It was heartbreaking to see his character always getting beat up. I found myself crying during those times and definitely at the end. Effecting my emotions the way this drama did is a testament to the great work of the actors and the story line.
I will be watching the list of Song Seung Heon's work hoping for a happy ending for his characters . Great work Song Seung Heon. I am not sure why the ratings are not higher. The drama was entertaining and kept me interested through the end.
