Yes, many people say this drama is cliche and overrated. I disagree on both counts. This was one of the first dramas I ever watched. Considering how this came out 13 years ago, this was one of the first dramas that introduced me to dramaland. Although it includes amnesia, which is super cliche now, this drama's strengths are mainly the cast and the beautiful scenery. Honestly, I really like the reunited love storylines and this is the drama that set me on the path to continue to love to watch dramas with reunited love couples. I watched this drama 3 times and every time I get super teary eyed.
The cast is amazing. Like many people, I love Bae Yong Jun. His acting was just spot on. Seriously, this drama was so angsty! Be prepared with tissues when watching this! All the actors portrayed their parts very well but of course I loved the OTP the most. Their high schools scenes were completely adorable with breathtaking winter scenery in the background complemented with lovely songs that made me feel like I was right there with them. Their little actions/gestures are so romantic and touching. Even after they are adults, their scenes continue to be captivating to watch. I lived with them in every scene.
I fell in love with the music, especially "From the Beginning Until Now", "My Memory", and "Only You". The soundtrack was really touching and fitting for the scenes.
I completely recommend this drama. It's definitely a classic. Don't be turned off by the drama because it doesn't have HD quality since it's relatively old. Like Autumn's Concerto (t-drama), this is a classic (but k-drama) so it's seriously a must watch! (10/9)
