The first two episodes could be a bit slow, but it does pick up its pace after that aND BOOM! IT JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER AND BETTER. And before you know it, you're already held captive of this drama hole.

What makes it addictive in my opinion is the chemistry and acting of Mone and Takeru. I have been following their interviews and behind-the-scenes and they really did a good job with portraying their characters. Most especially Takeru!!! He has done some scenes that are out of the script, which only shows how well he knows his character.

I came in to this drama thinking it'll be similar to Itazura na Kiss. BUT I WAS WRONG! I loved Itazura, but that might have also been influenced by my love for the manga or its taiwanese counterpart. For Koi Wa, on the other hand, introduces a similar setup of a doctor-nurse couple but with a slightly different vibe. Hard to explain but Tendo is a bit nicer and shows more emotions towards his colleagues. I wouldn't really compare this to Itazura because IT IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT (JUST WATCH AND SEE LMAO). Sakura's contagious smile will never fail to make you smile :'') You will see how Sakura is very much deserving of Tendo's love. She has such a bright personality + a good heart too.

Overall, I truly enjoyed this drama. It presents a simple yet addictive story. No unnecessary drama and some conflicts got resolved quite quickly (which i loved!!!). IT NEVER LOST ITS SPARK THROUGHOUT THE 10 EPISODES, which definitely puts it on one of my fave dramas this year, and MY MOST FAVE JDRAMA TO DATE. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

PS. THE OST IS A BOMB TOO
