Honestly more satisfying than the actual finale for me
Damn idk why the other reviewer is so mad (well I kind of do) but I found the spin-off to be delightful and a joy to watch! I really wrote this review bc I didn't think it would be fair to just have that one very negative review when I really enjoyed the "spin-off" and adored the base show. Especially the second episode - for me, you could tell it was the last thing that the actors filmed because they were all so easily teary eyed. I loved every second honestly and I thought it captured the heart of the show which is just a lot of fun and lighthearted in a lot of senses and also filled with a lot of love and great chemistry amongst the cast.I just want to note that I've only given three 10 star ratings in my short drama watching career (it's coming up on a year now) and that is for this spinoff, the base show Mr. Queen, and It's Okay to Not Be Okay if that helps to reference my taste. We all are sad that the ending wasn't gayer, I sure am b/c So Bong and Cheoljong are a beautiful and delightful pair, but I know the Queen is composed of both So Yong and So Bong and this was made is South Korea so how gay could we actually have expected it to be lol. It was so close though.
Really happy that I watched the second episode after the finale because it helped to fill the emptiness I was feeling after the finale. It would be such a gift to see SHS and KJH work together more in the future, but we all know how beautifully the entire cast worked together.

tender, soft, and precious. it's been a joy.
I'm going to miss this drama so much. The last time I felt this taken by a drama was It's Okay to Not Be Okay. I felt so fully invested in the characters and the development was laid out for us beautifully. It's truly been an honor to watch this drama. The casting was pure perfection. Dami and Wooshik and their soft facial features and their magnetic chemistry, it felt so natural to watch them show us this love story. It hits you in all the right places. Challenges you to become more patient and understanding. Urges you to trust in yourself and live boldly. I want to thank the entire production team for such a treat. Our Beloved Summer holds such a tender place in my heart. I'm so happy that I watched it.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

My obsession
I watched it in full a couple days after the last episode aired on August 9th and I'm probably on my 7th or 8th rewatch and I'm just now deciding to write a review. I don't understand how you can't fall in love. It made it hard to watch other kdramas after this - it sets the bar too high. The chemistry between KSH and SYJ is addictive. Fantastic acting. OJS and SYJ especially blew me away. Deserves every award. I truly did feel healed and continue to feel healed by this drama and just feel so thankful for its existence. What a gift. I actually initially looked into the drama because I enjoyed Park Kyu-Young's supporting role as Ji-yuul in Romance is a Bonus Book (her facial expressions are perfect) and it was so nice to see her reunite with Kang Ki-doong. Parts of the plot in the end do feel burdensome to watch, but I understand that it's meant to make it like a fairy tale and also to incorporate the kdrama/love hardships aspects. SYJ (my absolute obsession) had me bawling. She has so much range. I became enamored by her after this as so many others have and have delved into her collection of roles - currently halfway through Potato Star and over halfway through Moorim School and wow - she has chemistry with EVERYONE. But really, SYJ and KSH together are beyond words. Who doesn't want to see these two together in real life? What a blessing.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
