This series has everything you need. A good plot, great chemistry, romance, sadness and happy ending.
It got me hooked since the beginning, however I still didn't expect it to be this good.
The story is not complex or complicated. It flows smooth and gives you an insight of the past without dragging or rushing it. A simple misunderstanding that led to 7 years of longing and then they found each other again. No plot holes or confusion.
The actors are good, they were able to make me feel their emotions and their chemistry felt natural. I will have to give it to Lee Seung Gyu... the way I chocked when Ki Tae panicked and started searching and shouting for Wan and then started crying; I seriously was on the verge of tears. He is a gem and I hope to see him in bigger roles! Not that I have any complaints about Lee Jong Hyuk, but that's how the story was I guess. They both had good character development and they both as actors did a great job!
Bonus points for the kisses! No dead fishes liplock, ladies and gentlemen! The cute little pecks in between the main ones, made me giddy and smile each time.
Being a limited budget series, I have to say it's much better than some others with a lot more investment. No over the top make up, simple wardrobe- made them more realistic, well constructed dialogues and typical Korean humor here and there to make you giggle. The only upsetting part was that the episodes are to short,hence sometimes the continuity suffers. But you can draw your own conclusions without feeling confused or like you are missing something. We just don't get to see some scenes that would have been great to see, but the story still flows.
All in all, it's a make you feel good drama! it's on my favorites list now!
