I feel like I can say that I loved and disliked this show.

As other reviewers have all said, this is a very slow drama, but I didn't find it boring. I loved the atmosphere, the snowy countryside, the tight-knit community and heartwarming relationships. I liked how understated it was. I got invested in the characters' lives and wanted everything to work out.

However, I didn't find the story to be as coherent and consistent as I hoped. Too many plot points ended up dissolving in the evocative mood of the show. There's a lot of people smiling or gazing at each other over music, or a combination of music and vague voice-over commentary... but not enough story and not nearly enough dialogue. Yes, looks can convey a whole lot, but I also need to see some actual communication between the characters, otherwise it all gets very abstract and wishy-washy.
I also have to say that the very heavy themes that are touched on in this drama are just this: touched on. And they don't really mesh well with the otherwise cute and charming atmosphere of this country village.

In summary, I felt like this drama tried to be too many things at once and ended up losing its way. But I did think it was pretty, charming and touching at times. In the end, although I enjoyed watching it, I can't rate it any higher than a 6.
