First review of an cinematography addicted

As the head line implies, it touched me way too much..
I have watched many dramas, from different countries and idk how to write a proper review so bare with me.

Even though this plot was done endless times, this one was perfect in my eyes.
Why? It had all of them in the same series
- the chemistry
- good directing and screenwriting
- every single character was done properly, not only the mains
- wasn't full of tipical clichés (I love them tho)
- the sound, lighting, places, wardrobe, hairstyles, all the props
- the little and immaculate hints and details, from expressions, touches, movements, props
- the good and satisfying ending for a tragic outcome

From now on full on spoilers

What I personally loved?

- my favorite scene was the last part, when they were older, it hit me so bad, bc I've imagined myself living such an incomplete life, to the point I wished for his suicide attempt to succeed or not show the outcome in so much details and stages so I could just put this drama in the pill with the rest dramas I've watched and call it a day and move on.

Like he seems that he lived a good and happy life, he never truly felt entirely happy.

Bits I remember and liked

-her brother and the scene in the back of the truck and his realization, the start of him truly maturing and it impacted him so much and become a helper for the ones in need
- I loved the bff's family, their character development was well done, she annoyed me a bit at times, but still liked that I felt this about her
- the fact that bad guys can also be the evil souls as long as the cowards or indifferent ones
- the leads characters seemed common, but at the same time it didn't
- misunderstandings and secrets were quickly showed, not dragged for decades, but not too quick to the point that why bother putting them in the first place
- the attention to the details, like were the May was shown on the calendar on the desk while the bff's brother received the note and such detailed, I liked those touches, it proves that the crew put all their hearts in the project
- I liked that mains had lots of happy and cute moments, like they at least enjoyed most their times while they've been together
- the mains didn't miss the chances like every damn drama
- the mains dinamic
- his brother character, I really liked his maturity and bravery, from the punch to saving the sister in law and the scene were he rejected his father was amazing and the flashback of his happy moments with FL was a great idea
- the step mother and her finally having enough strength to leave the toxic marriage, I couldn't hate her throughout the series
- every single character and the fact that they had decent screen time and felt important to the story, not just fillers to make the series longer
- the SML was amazing, I liked that they didn't just put him there to be our tipical kdrama SML and didn't focused on only his love for the FL

Bits that I wished for

- a bit more screen time for her mom, they brushed her away, like she's not the mother and wife of two important characters, some scenes when the boy comes running home or when she receives the news of the deceased loved ones.

- a bit more scenes between the bff and policeman, that was damm sad.. Her realization of his feelings after it was too late.. She had so many love potentials and they hinted them, but nothing never, I liked that she was focused on her goals, but I wished they didn't introduce so many potentials and making the audience crave amd wish for her to go in that direction

Not wished, I'm actually fine they didn't show what happened right after with everything, with his father and let it open to our imagination and focused on romance aspects, bc I think I wouldn't be satisfied with any revange/ punishment for the ones that were in the wrong, so a smart move for not giving us concrete follow ups.

Why I rated the re-watch so low?
-I could go lower actually, it's such a sad one that I don't wanna feel this pain ever after watching a series.
My heart felt real pain.

A top recommendation?
Most definitely, it was an amazing drama over all, truly satisfying.

I sure have more thoughts, but I'm afraid it will be longer than the script of the series, so I'll stop here.
