This drama has the best demonstration of why the main leads love each other of any drama I've watched so far. The male lead may have fell in love at first sight, but he quickly comes to respect and admire the female lead's strength of character, while his pursuit of her not only softens her heart to him, but gives her the space to bloom and shine as a person. The leads vocalise why they love each other so that we're not left making up the reasons like in many other dramas.

While this drama embraces many unnecessary tropes at times, and piles on difficulties in the female lead's life to an excessive extent, it has a great cast, and overall feels more realistic than it arguably has the right to.
