I've only seen 2 of Park Hae Jins dramas, this and Doctor Stranger and my feelings about them both are very similar, they both started out fantastically and then two thirds of the way through they stopped making any sense and just become frustrating, abandoning everything that made them so great in the beginning.

I have to be clear that I LOVED this drama when I first started it. I've found that recently I've not been looking forward to each new episode of the dramas I'm watching, but for this one I was excited to see where this story would take me. The dialogue wasn't great, it was kind of convoluted and a little bit confusing, but the overall story was an interesting one and so I was truly hooked.

The things that I really enjoyed throughout this entire drama were the setting, the acting, the chemistry of our leads and the music. The setting was stunning, I never got tired of seeing these characters wandering around the forest and discovering new parts to it, it was so beautiful to watch and not a setting I'd seen explored in a kdrama before. The music was really on a whole new level, it really enhanced the drama and the music alone made me excited for certain scenes. Now to the acting, as i said I've only ever seen Park Hae Jin in Doctor Stranger and I have to say that although that drama was jam packed with beloved actors, his performance was by far my favorite. And in this drama I was not disappointed at all! He was brilliant, he brought a wonderful child-like side to this cold man who lost out on his childhood. I seriously can't wait to see him in more dramas and this was my first Jo Bo Ah drama, but WOW she was good. I can understand that some people were annoyed by her character, but that was completely down to how she was written rather than her performance, I loved the believable strength she brought to the character and the fun side to her that was also always present. And the chemistry these 2 characters had was insane, there were a few moments that were seriously steamy, I mean that first kiss with the stethoscope... And big shout out to this being Noh Kwang Shik, this is his first drama....WHAT?

As I said the first two thirds of this drama were brilliant. Choosing to have drama be about the forest rescue team was such a unique idea, having a little look into how difficult their job is made for a great watch. And the rescue teams scenes were always so fun to see, I have a weakness for found family plots in dramas, so I seriously loved their moments. And the fact that they managed to put a cliched kdrama love story in the middle of such a unique setting worked brilliantly. It was a new angle on all the cliches I know and love, it was an adorable, sweet and funny drama.

But towards the end we lost a lot of that stuff and our main couple were really the only thing that kept me coming back. For some reason the writer decided to pretty much drop the fire rescue portion of the story (which was what was making this drama so unique) and have it become a drama about "evil" businessmen trying to one up each other. It stopped being funny and sweet and started behaving more like a melodrama. And it got to the point where it was ridiculous. Having our villain maniacally laugh every 5 seconds was way to much and having Park Hae Jin beat someone up and call him self a "superhero" was eye roll worthy.

So for me this drama just lost its magic and got kind of boring. I'm not sure if I'm glad I started this drama. I'm glad I got to experience some of these actors again and some for the first time, but the script was just so bad it made the last few episodes a chore to get through. This is one of those dramas I will have almost completely forgotten about in a years time, BUT one thing I'll never forget was that first kiss, it's gone straight to the top of my list of best kdrama kisses.
