Painful but I loved the end
I went into this still confused on some events of the first season (thankfully, someone commented on the review and helped clear up some things). From the summary, I knew that either Seo Joo or Ji Woo had left ending the relationship with a note, but I wasn't sure which it was. I expected to to last much of the season with one looking for the other, but it was resolved within the first episode.
For most of the season, the audience is trying to find out what Ji Soo left Seo Joo. Seo Joo spent a year looking for him, only to find him in his home village, living in the house he did during his childhood and had opened a restaurant that is not doing so well in its location. The reasonings his gave and his cold attitude towards Seo Joo doesn't make sense especially from where the first season left off. Watching Seo Joo trying to talk to Ji Woo, getting to know the villagers and even call Ji Woo at the restaurant numerous time to tell him to come pick up his stuff was just heartbreaking. No matter how frustrated and confused I felt, I wanted answers. We meet the Village Chief, Han Da Kyung, who is a neighbor to Ji Woo and her daughter Yoo Ha, who called Ji Woo 'Dad". We also meet Jung Sung Yoon who is not only from the same village as Ji Woo but also his ex girlfriend. I watched this on Viki and the comments were so rude about her character. I enjoyed the banter banter between Seo Joo and Sung Yoon, they both dated the same person but as different parts of his life.
Seo Joo tried so much that there times that I just wanted him to stop and just leave Ji Woo behind. He didn't deserve him. Based off of Ji Woo mannerism, I wondering if it was autistic but undiagnosed. In an epilogue there is a clip of Ji Woo telling Seo Joo that is not hard to hang his clothes going the same direction. I could be wrong but it was just what I got from things. Towards the end, we finally got Ji Woo perspective on his relationship with the two people and how different they were. He watched a live stream on Seo Joo birthday, not knowing that Seo Joo stated that he wasn't staying because he was celebrating with his partner which is the day that Ji Woo left. I do love when Ji Woo decides to stay at Seo Joo apartment and the CEO leaves. Ji Woo leaves and returns with ingredients for dinner (which is looked like saffron rice) "Who do you think you are'? Seo Joo states. it was like saying how dare you come in here and make dinner as if things are how they used to be. You left me, remember? And then Ji Woo explains and states how was confused and states things he wasn't Seo Joo to stop doing, and the two talk some more and with that the two get back together. Would this have been better if it was stated in the first place instead of him just leaving? Yes. But the growth of the two and the realization the two go through, was worth the end result. I may watch the last few episodes again just to understand Ji Woo feelings and points of view again. I do not see myself turning this on again to watch fully, but there were scene in this that I really liked.
There is also the issue of Seo Joo panics attacks. He mentions how his parents left him, but we see from the phone conversations that his health were primarily the reason as to why they dissociate themselves with him. Which is a way is sad. They also didn't attend observation at school like with Yoo Ha and her Mom who is so busy with work that she forgets and lets her daughter down a lot. The Villagers also seem to be punishing Ji Woo because of something that his parents did years before so no one is really coming to the res. I know that small towns and villagers are untruthful of newcomers but to punish their child. I am still not really clear on that myself.
