i was taken aback by that ending, haha. i was really preparing to ugly cry like a b*tch, pheww.

i watched this in skips and forwards because i got so curious about the story, and his character in it.

this was meant to be the last drama that i was gonna catch up on him (because i am a huge romanticist, and i am very picky about my romance dramas), but because of the genre, i cannot wait anymore LOL.

in terms of story, it has managed to keep itself light despite being surrounded by pain and hurt all over which is an interesting balance.

but the scene in Hainan, China when they first met, and his accident was repeated way too many times in the drama. i feel like over-repetition of a scene like that only convinced me that the story lacked some kind of depth or complexity to fill in the episodes.

i almost wished that his character was deeply more involved in some investigation of sorts into his illness, or his sad fate. or there was some other great plot twist or revelation about his tragedy, which would have made the storyline a lot more attractive, complete and intriguing to me.

also, i jumped into this drama because a saw a comment saying CJH will make my heart flutter in every second in this drama (since i am huge stan of his, lol). but honestly he did not.

his character early in the drama was a bit like a jerk, so i actually had to make an effort to try to like his character (after ep. 1). but he definitely became a lot more likeable middle-way through.

but the pay-off is really great. i truly love some camera shots from the side where he's smiling, and you can see how gentle, soft and sweet his face looked, at the same his sharp manly features are so breathtaking (i.e. his sharp jawline and high nose).

goshh, because of him and the lead couple's chemistry, this drama can be rewatched endlessly. CJH fans, say thanks to director-nim! LOL.endless
