HPL was the first drama I watched on air and it gave me something to look forward to each week. Especially since it airs during the middle of the week, for the weeks I followed this drama my Wednesdays and Thursdays got ten folds better. This drama made me excited and happy for the most part, especially during the first ~3/4 of the show. The relationship between DM and RG is so wholesome and so beautiful to watch, and that’s what really made the show. There are also many aspects of the show that try to incorporate some more family scenes and themes, however I found them lacking compared to the main romance and also a little odd. Just seemed a bit out of place and I skipped through a lot of it. Especially towards the end when the focus of the story became less romance more drama, I didn’t particularly enjoy it.

That being said, while the story was not the greatest the acting and every scene between the main couple was sooooo good. I literally fell in love with their love. Their relationship is so honest and so sweet, and it can be seen that they genuinely always care about each other. I loved their interactions sm to the point where I really really hope they are a real couple, they act so naturally. I have watched every single bts released so far and they just look so goddamn natural and happy together and that’s what made this show great. This is what made me happy watching this show.

The cast for this show was phenomenal and while I didn’t like some characters and maybe they weren’t needed the actors/actresses that played them played them relatively well. I don’t particularly like any other character besides the main leads and perhaps Cha Shi An and the child. The music was also wonderful and matched very well, my two favorite songs in the OST are maybe (a must listen) and smile again. The rewatch value is a bit low because while I loved watching their romance, since the story isn’t really there I feel that it doesn’t really make me want to rewatch the drama. Totally recommend this show for those that love love romance !
