Even though your love is pure, I will choose toxicity.

Right from episode 1, you are given the wrong idea on what the story will stay on. Our female lead Seo Dal-Mi receives letter from her "1st love" who writes her letter by the name of Nam Do San. Later, the real Nam Do San in brought to her adult life and everything that was set up in first episode is lost.

The whole business point of view in the drama is nice but it's such a pity that drama looses that point and becomes too focused on the love triangle.

Won In Jae played by the amazing Kang Ha Na, even though is on the main cover on drama she is lost in the drama. Her importance is so much lost that she isn't even told that her grandma is loosing vision.

I really didn't cared for the friends of NDS and only cared for Sa-Ha's character which I thought had quite a lot of build up as her expressions and acting was enjoyable.

Now the main reason why this drama is not worth it, the way too much focus on love triangle. This drama makes our male lead Nam Do San looks so so so so bad that you automatically lean toward Han Ji-Pyeong. Nam Do san goes through nothing and still earns everyones respect at the end. He had a caring mother, supportive friends and home most importantly, yet his character comes of as whiny and arrogant. He is shown to he someone we are suppose to sympathize with but he even after time lapse shows no growth. His whole image is based of from the letters that HAN JI PYEONG wrote. Even in business deals he is always forcing Dal Mi to make decisions on basis of "why not" which isn't reliable.

Now for Seo Dal Mi played by Bae Suzy, her character has nothing but to choose who shs wants as her bae? Rather then coming of as strong she came out as too much dependant on people around her and it wasn't worth watching. The conversation about the letters that was held between her and HJP shows that those letters and feelings of 15 years weren't real and he wasn't even an option to begin with. She choose NDS cuz he had big hands? And that's it. "I like you cuz it's you" That is what she says to NDS while confessing which to me sounds toxic, like can't you even give one good reason as in to why you love your soulmate.

Han Ji Pyeong will always be the most miserable second lead. He went through so much pain not just as kid who by the way had no shelter, but even as adult goes through so so so so much emotional baggage that even if he was given an IU in the last episode (someone said this and I find it sad rather then funny) nothing could've redeemed him. I'm glad that we were given Kim Seon Ho as our 2nd lead cuz I'm looking forward to him in other shows.

Acting by everyone was average at best, business point was lost in stupid love triangle, music was fine and fashion wasn't interesting either.

Such a waste of star-studded cast. That's it. That's how I'll summarize this drama.

4.5\10 rating just cuz Kim Seon Ho deserves more praise.
