I will start off by mentioning that this is my first review ever on this site, I've watched dramas which I absolutely loved and adored and never had the thought of writing a review, however, I think it's crucial to write one for this masterpiece.

This was one of those dramas which doesn't have a gray area as in you'll either love it or hate it. I loved everything about it, the simple life it showed, the characters which were so pure and raw it felt like I was watching their actual life unfold in front of my eyes.
The characters Hae Won played by the amazing Park Min Young and Eun Sub played by the charming Seo Kang Joon was a delight to watch. They embodied their characters so much in this, and personally I believe Min Young did her career-best in this drama. It is a slow burn but every scene had so much depth, even in scenes where you see Eun Sub simply making a cup of coffee or reading a book showed so much of his character and his simple life in a small town.
Their love story bloomed so naturally where Hae Won realized how warm she felt when she was with him and how much she needed that in her life, I will not go through the difficulties both main characters faced in their lives in detail but to see both of them finding comfort and healing from each other was so beautiful and not something we see so often now.
Eun Sub had a blog where he posted every day called the good night bookstore private blog posting which was such a nice touch, it made us understand his character and learn his views and deeper thoughts as he was very well reserved and didn't show his feelings much.
All other characters were given enough screen time and the drama made us fall in love with them and their simple life. The things they did together like the book club, events showed how life in a small town isn't as boring as people think. I'll definitely watch clips from this drama from time to time as I've fallen in love with these characters.
