A heart wrenching, sad almost on the verge of depressing. then sweet drama. Depending on what you like you will either really feel for Oh Soo or Oh Young. The side characters get a slight storyline that does not detract from the main story often giving some light during heavy sessions. the acting is amazing Song Hye Kyo's portrayal of a blind woman is done very well.
Story
Very cliche story of a blind heiress and the person trying to con her falling in love with her in the end. But its not really the story that keeps you its the production of the whole thing. The scenery and camera angles that focus a lot on the characters faces, even the tone of colour used for the drama - not too bright and not dark either, very modern, keep you mesmerized. The production team did very well and this makes the cliche story pop. The stories of the side characters also help to flesh out this drama but there are times where you are left wanting as the viewer is left with so many unanswered questions.
The last couple of episodes seem like they were written by a completely different person and it was almost like they thought 'oh sh*t we have to round this up quickly' which made me struggle to finish the drama and the last episode unfortunately makes no sense.
Acting/Cast
The actors did very well, it felt authentic and made you feel for them (especially when Oh Soo breaks down I almost cried with him). The change in how the viewer feels about the characters as you go through the drama is also realistic. Oh Soo, i felt very sorry for and at times I wanted to shake Oh Young so she could understand where he was coming from. His struggle to keep up pretenses whilst fighting his growing feelings was sad to watch and on top of that at every turn he seemed to hear bad news after bad news. Another thing that Jo In Sung did for the female audience is the way he portrays Oh Soo who deeply cares about Oh Young and only has eyes for her.
The other character you begin to fall in love with at the end is Moon Cheol (i shan't say why lol)
Oh Young's character will definitely annoy you at some point with the whole 'woe is me' act but then you have to remember what she has gone through and had to put up with as she grew up secluded from everyone, so at times her character becomes childish in the way she demands for things or pushes the boundaries. Another character that will annoy you is Hee Sun, who in my opinion is kind of irrelevant, her emotions are unnecessary and she becomes an enemy of progress at points. The drama would have carried on just fine without her character really.
Music
There are some songs that really help in situations and the way the coordinator arranged the songs worked well for example not playing the chorus at one point knowing it would be emotional overkill.
Overall
I enjoyed the drama, I loved the scenery and how well it was filmed, like most dramas I've watched recently the rush at the end will annoy a newbie into the drama world lol and the constant rollercoaster of emotions might be too much for some to handle but it is an enjoyable watch. Definitely give it a try
