Listened to the OST for a week after finishing the drama
Context:
1. Not a big fan of fluffy romance
2. I enjoy the "tragic ending"
3. Love when there's a good friendship arc
Plot-wise, I do thing the past + present did tie in well together. The way they switched between present to past scenes and the pace they revealed the details in the past was done smoothly. They revealed just enough each episode to keep you interested to know more. As a side-note, at some point, I did find the present scenes a bit dragging. But it might have also been because I started losing interest in the romantic scenes. Please note though that my love for this drama might have been influenced by the kinda-sad ending. There's something about tragic romance that really gets to me.
Acting-wise, I really enjoyed Yoo Ah In's (ML's) acting here. I have to say that I was never his biggest fan but after watching this, I'm interested to see more of his works. The FL and 2ML were good but I don't think I could say I was blown away by their performances.
Music-wise, I LOVED THE OST. As you can tell from my subject, I replayed the songs for a week. They fit well with the scenes with their OST as the background music and you can tell from the multiple fan made video montages. It also helps that I love listening to sad OSTs after watching a sad story.
Character-wise, I really liked the friendship between the characters. While there is a romance aspect to the story, they was sufficient screen time to watch their friendship develop. It's one of those dynamics where even if you know that 2 are going to end up together, the 3rd friend is still an important part of the group and not just a plot devise to spur the romance of the furst 2 characters. This trio is honestly one of my top drama squads. I also liked the comic relief that the girl's other friends bring.
Overall, it's a story with good flow, interesting characters, solid friendship and relationship development, and a great OST. It's a good introduction to historical/period piece, since the other half is present-day. Be ready for some heartbreaking scenes which are super worth it and fit really well to the overall story. I really love this show; the only reason I wouldn't say it's my top drama is simply because I hated the present day fluff. But if the combination of that is your cup of tea, you might find you next favorite drama!
P.S. It's a great introduction to Yoo Ah In if you haven't watched him in other shows. And even if you have but haven't seen this show, I just want to say: 1930s Yoo Ah In is just *chef's kiss*.
