A mature drama tackling a prickly issue done well
The issue of infidelity is handled maturely in this thought provoking drama; it's an introspective exploration NOT a tawdry, women-slapping-each-other melo. I was surprised at how slow-paced and simple it remained to the very end. Every scene looked like it was filmed in that vintage sepia-ish filter which further contributed to the melancholy, bittersweet feel.
The two leads have a chemistry that "... makes glass tubes and halogen lights explode...", as one reviewer on dramabeans.com so accurately described. Frankly, if someone looks at you the way Seo Do Woo looked at Choi Soo Ah, you can die happy. Bit of an exaggeration there, but you get my drift. The other supporting leads were excellent too. Shin Sung Rok expectedly, nailed the part of an uncaring, misogynistic husband to Choi Soo Ah so much, that as a woman, I wanted to reach through the TV screen many times to smack him across the face.
I really enjoyed this series, it pretty much smashed all the familiar kdrama tropes and gave me something refreshing to watch and think about. As someone who is always looking for more mature dramas, I hope to find more like On The Way to the Airport.
