The first six episodes are among the sweetest and tenderest I've ever seen: I was completely and happily swept into the story from the start. I adore this beautiful, gentle, protective man who loves completely and unconditionally. Though he is younger, he is wiser and more mature than the conflicted "Noona" he falls in love with, and gives her the protection and courage to discover the power of love--his love for her. There are so many warm, sexy, and funny scenes: my favorite is the hilarious first handhold under the table--funny and triumphant for both characters. I also love the apartment elevator metaphor the director uses throughout the series to mirror the development and then difficulties of the love story. And of course the umbrella imagery is perfect for the gentle beginnings of love, sheltering them and appearing when needed to remind them who they are.

But the writer and director decide to muck up the whole thing with the intrusion of outsiders and "family" including the worst mother figure from hell you can imagine. The shrieking, diabolical bitch belongs in an institution rather than young peoples' lives. The makers respond to criticism by saying, "well, reality ya know." I call BS, because the lovers genuinely love one another, and the reality is that this kind of love can never be destroyed. At any rate, after more destructive nonsense, they realize they've screwed up and awkwardly bring in a new umbrella all happy yellow this time. Still, all that said, I do recommend the series for the sweet joy of this couple, and the charm of the leads, especially Jung Hae-in even in the hell storm the makers concoct for him. He is simply fabulous--and it is his warm-hearted character who in the end saves everything, including the series.
