A good typical melodrama with not much substance for viewers (at least for me). I shouldn't have had any expectations on this while it was airing as I had kept on track on spoiler clips uploaded by MBC every wed and thu expecting for impactful and memorable scenes. Because of this, I felt quite bitter for holding on until the end. Anyway, enough about my hurt feelings.
My take on the:
Story: With what had been shown and presented, the story seemed bulky (scenes felt rushed) since there were plot points: that should've been lingered on and a lot of unnecessary ones.
Acting: The chemistry of the main leads, which was real life-like made the drama a nice watch. It's good to see how communication with sincerity and honesty was highlighted in each episodes and it was well translated through the screen. The supporting actors were great. They did what they were supposed to do. All the emotions expressed by the actors were well performed and are noticeably on point.
*A bit of characterization of main leads: LJH & YHJ: Their confrontations was nice and refreshing but at times their words to each other felt empty. Their personalities made them both suited for each other (opposites attract principle). There was a lot of character inconsistencies as the story progressed.
Music: Lyrics and overall feel was nice and well-fitted for each scene.
Cinematography: I loved the settings and the color details. This perhaps pleased me on my watching experience.
Rewatch? I can come back to it at times when I feel like watching. It's an easy watch but not a fulfilling one.
Overall: I'm glad this came out during the lockdown as I would have not watched this if it weren't for it. This will remain in my memory as an attempt to becoming a memorable drama for a viewer.
Add-on
For the cast and crew who worked on this:
I commend the cast and crew for finishing until the end while giving just the right fan services (bts, instagram lives and stories,etc.) to avid viewers. They did well but could have done better on the story.
