Just why did I put this off for 2 years. Anybody wondering if they should watch this, do yourself a favour and WATCH.
The acting by the leads, the villain, the sides: they really did the story justice.
For what I didn't love about the drama- The first half could be a bit slow but it's worth the wait. Han Se Ju's character gets crazy infuriating at some points. Not to mention his hair. But it's understandable as you learn more about him. Yes, theres a reason he keeps his hair that way lol. Along with this it would be sooooo much better if they added in more moments from their past life.
Now that that's out of the way lets focus on the good.
There's something about the past versions of the leads that can make you feel so much for them. As a viewer found it incredibly easy to understand them and their suffering. Ended up laughing with them and also crying like never for a drama before. Again, props to the actors. Especially Seo Hui Young, the overflowing charm. Too bad he's fiction.
They really smashed the details in this drama. Such well written plots with close to no plot holes is not easy to come across.
In conclusion, it's a masterpiece.
