I know that my score is incredibly high compared to other people's reviews and the overall score, but please don't disregard it simply based on that fact. I don't give high scores to any ordinary drama but I genuinely feel that this drama is an absolute gem. If you feel put off by this drama because the synopsis seems cliche and the score seems to support this idea, please do not be misled like I was. It is actually quite the opposite to what you think, with an incredibly profound story that is heartwarming yet bittersweet. I urge you to give it a go. Yes, one could argue that we've seen similar things before, as perhaps it literally was the Korean drama version of Groundhog Day, but the story had its own independent ideas and was told beautifully that it makes up for this fact.

I did, like many other people, come into this drama because I love Myungsoo. It was a short drama and I was struggling to choose something to watch so I gave it a go, not expecting much, especially since the only way I could find to watch it on was some blurry version on YouTube (as I don't have Netflix). Instead, I came out this drama not regretting a moment that I spent watching this. Yes, my fangirl heart was fulfilled with lots of kiss scenes but truly, what made me continue was the fact that I was enjoying the story's progression. The only letdown in that regard was that it was a bit slow for my liking. It was predictable what was going to happen next so I wanted it to continue quickly but I can accept why others may disagree with me in that regard. The story was not too slow that it hindered the plot at all, in fact it appeared intentional, but I feel that you could skim through each episode to get the general gist of what's going on instead of watching the whole thing and still enjoy it as much.

The ending reminded me a lot of the anime film 'Kimi no na wa' (which I highly recommend if you haven't watched). An ending it is essential to take into account when considering what makes a good drama. The ending is a major deciding factor in the memorability of a drama. I feel that these sort of final scenes, which are open to the interpretation of the viewer, does exactly this - encouraging remembrance long after the person has moved on to other dramas. Another point surrounding the ending that I would like to mention, is that in this kind of circumstances, with a plot written as it is, a happy ending that does not feel too forced by the writers is close to impossible. This bittersweet type of ending fits with the story and is perfect on occasions like this. The watcher does not feel too unsatisfied but also does not feel that if the drama was stretched in order for the audience to be pleased.

I thank you for taking the time to read my review. If you are considering this drama, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
