so i watched this as it was releasing and i found myself excited for every Saturday. the whole premise of the story seemed really interesting to me so I impulsively started it after watching strangers from hell.
this show was so heartwarming and made me cry, laugh, cry-laugh, kick my feet in the air. i loved the tight-knit community and how everyone in the village had their own story and struggles. they didn't just focus on the main leads, we got to see the children, the adults, the elderly live their lives. it was very simple and healing. i could definitely see myself rewatching this in the future and i am wrapped around its finger.
also kim seon-ho's smile!!!! the cutest thing ever, it was so contagious AHH. him and hyejin were adorable idc what anyone says. sure hyejin did some cringe aegyo but i was able to look past that honestly because regardless, i thought they were really cute. i also love bickering couples lolol gives them more personality which was the case for homecha.
the love triangle in this was actually done right! the second lead wasnt pushy or annoying and he got along with the male lead (for the most part lolol). there was no toxicity between the SL and FL and no confusion. very refreshing!
overall, the scenery and music were really beautiful. i loved the location of the village and the sea, it was truly an experience to watch this for the first time just admiring the views. i dont think any other drama of 2021 compares to this. I highly recommend it!!
