The Void
I'm so depressed that this drama is over I could just cry. Really.
It has been a long time since I stumbled upon something so perfect and I cannot gush enough about how much I positively loved this little gem of a show.
It goes to show that the right combination of good actors, directing, music and writing can really produce good quality material without anything flashy (no exotic shots, no high-budget standards, no complex and intricate plot....) It's just a drama that's full of life and perfection even within it's (very minor) shortcomings.
Here is a show that's packed full of heart and humor. It dishes out life as it is but also sprinkles on some hopes and dreams in the form of an absolutely flawless character affectionately referred to as Sweet Potato. What I adored about Joo Won (his actual name, ha) was that even though he was so unbelievably perfect at times his character still experienced growth and had his ups and downs that made him seem so real despite the fairy-tail like aura he emulated.
This was also the drama to finally--at long last--suck me into Sung Joon's fandom. I've seen him in other stuff and thought 'eh, he's cute...' at best but now he certainly has my attention. To say the least, he rocked my socks off with his portrayal of Joo Won and now I'll be on the look out for his future works.
On the other hand, I have always been a fan of Kim So Yun and she has yet to disappoint me. She always plays challenging and unique characters and she executes her performances so seemingly effortlessly and smoothly that it's hard to believe her characters aren't actually real people. In this case, Shin Joo Yun was just perfectly imperfect. I love characters with a lot of depth to them, and that usually means they start out hateful but become more and more loveable as their layers are pealed back and they learn to be better versions of themselves. That's exactly what we get with Joo Yun and it was a wonderful unfolding to behold.
I feel like I could delve into other details and points of the show (because there is a lot more to it than this) but I think I've touched on what really maters the most to me and what (overall) made me mark this drama off as a 10. I WILL just add that the soundtrack is killer. Love it!
Again, I'm going to miss this drama so much I haven't exactly figured out how to move on with my life just yet (haha~ but seriously...). Here's a round of applause to the cast and crew for all their hard work!! I'm sure I'll be watching it again soon...
