if only i could watch this for the first time again. i love this show so much. it had all the elements i crave in a story (e.g. good-looking people, insane chemistry, family & found family, slice-of-life, drama, good banter, and well-rounded characters). i feel like it just came at the right time. although it was not perfect (there are some parts of the story that i wish could have been dealt with differently), i still ate it up until the last second!!!! the relationships were really the highlight. i was just in awe. the actors, especially somin and haein, really carried this one. the way they all just mesh together gave me a sense of comfort. you can tell how much they loved going to work and that they genuinely enjoyed each other's company.

one of my favorites of all time.
