Healing. Warm. Fun.

I literally expected NOTHING when I started watching the show and I knew NOTHING about it. I watched it because I like the leads and wanted something that looks warm.
BUT oh my god. What was that? It felt like a syringe full of medicine that heals your worries and gives you warmness.
It was a weird mixture of "Run On" and "Fix You". A beautiful drama filled with communication, talking, conversations and MORE communication. It's one that makes your eyes teary with simple sentences, makes you cry in one short scene and makes you laugh most of the time.
I loved the characters and everything.

this show IS blooming

I just finished watching the drama. I wanted to write a review because there are many negative ones, so I wanted to add a positive one.

A very light-hearted Saguk that reminds you of the good old days. Great chemistry, comedy, action, and a bit of melo.

The drama IS good—the main story, plot, and development. There were no boring episodes at all.

I'd really like to mention the casting since no one has talked about it yet, if you're a veteran in the K-drama world you would know that all of the old actors in this drama are big-shot actors with long years of experience. The king, left counselor, right counselor, and prime minister. The friend of the female lead is a great actress who is widely recognized lately. I don't want to forget to mention PHS and how godly he is.

I loved the chemistry between the leads, they are so fun to watch and they had real appearance time in each episode. I hate it when side stories go on for episodes without focusing on the leads, which happens a lot in Saguk dramas, especially those with 20 episodes.

You can tell that the female lead was very nervous in the first episode since it's her first major role but her acting gets so much better going further.

Highly recommended if you're looking for a not-so-complicated historical drama with many funny and cute scenes.

The most underrated kdrama to this day -- A rivew after the 6th watch

Due to the male lead being the best friend of the ex husband of the female lead in real life, this show was not accepted well in Korea. For international fans that are obssesed with bad shows like true beauty, they don't get the maturity of this masterpiece.

This drama is a wild ride, a ride of joy, healing and growth. A drama that shows you what a healthy love is and how to "love". It feels like a novel, like a poetry, like the warmth of the spring sun after a long european winter. The writer of this drama intentionally made the script feel like some sort of novel, every conversation they exchange feels straight out of a book. How they comfort each other, how they love each other, how they express their feelings.

Starting with cuba, the first two episodes make you so invested in this dreamy romance tale.

Acting is 10/10. I couldn't think of other actors that could express these lines, these emotions and the age gap so perfectly. FL is the mature Song Hye Kyo that have been through a lot. Very calm, mature and elegant. Park Bo Gum (ML) is the eptiome of youth. A good student like personality, the responsible older brother, the nerdy book lover.

This drama OSTs have been on repeat since 2020 for me.

I truly recommend people that love calm mature romance like "One Spring Night" and "Pretty Noona who buys me food" to watch this drama.

I hope someone ignores the bad ratings and reviews like me and gives it a try.

Most of the time I focus too much on the ratings and reviews when I watch something I know nothing about, I was really really excited about this drama when it was airing because of the cast but because of the ratings and reviews, I couldn't bring myself to watch it. It felt like even if I watched it then I wouldn't have liked it.
First of all, I strongly recommend you binge-watching this drama. Don't watch it if you don't have time to finish it in few days. because it has so many events and it changes a lot so if you take some time away from it, you wouldn't feel the characters well, and that's why people hated it probably.
My favorite part about the drama was how realistic it is. A lot of us were in a dramatic love when we were young and this person can never leave our minds, just hearing their name brings so many memories back.
I really loved how cool the male main lead is in the first episodes and how he becomes a fool and pathetic but still in a way that we won't hate him. I loved how the female main lead finds love something really important and how she likes him no matter how many misunderstandings happen. I think the many twists are a disadvantage to the drama because you get tired a bit but i really loved how they still make you smile and not tired of their exhausting love.

Too much negative reviews for this beautiful show so i'm writing a positive one.

Fantasy romance drama fans, hello.
We love Korean fantasy stories and how they make super unique characters and make us fall in love with them and the story. Of course, there were many dramas that failed, but this one made it.
What I want to talk about the most is how this show didn't use any non-likeably characters just to make more content. All the characters in the drama are likable.
I really don't like when the characters fall in love too fast with each other, trying to emphasize the modern culture of fast relationships, I also hate it when the characters keep fighting the whole series and only in the end they fall in love with each other. BUT this show had the perfect timing for everything. not too fast, not too slow.
Super handsome Seo In Guk, amazingly adorable Park Bo Young, the perfect chemistry made the show even more beautiful. I also like how they talked without honorifics since the start.
It's been a while since I shed some tears, but this show was able to do it!
Very recommended.
