There were some parts towards the middle of the story that felt slow and a bit uninteresting but I enjoyed most of it. They wrapped it up well.

Contrary to the opinion that most seemed to have, I didn't see a lot of faults in Suzy's acting. Woo Bin made my heart hurt as much as he made it flutter, nothing new there. The other actors did a good job too.

Overall I liked it and I don't regret watching it at all. It hit me in the feels which is what they wanted to do, I suppose, so they were successful.

Kim Woon Bin shone among the mess of this melodrama

Shin Joon Young (Kim Woo Bin) and Noh Eul (Bae Suzy) were high school sweethearts who broke up but reunite years later as an idol actor and a filmmaker. As they work together filming his documentary, Joon Young endeavors to mend their relationship and win her heart back.

This is not really a romance, rather a potential romance with a melodramatic back story turns into a revenge mission. I found this revenge plot was really dull and not thrilling, but I watched it to the end for Joon Young. If someone can get crowned for portraying a terminally ill person, Kim Woo Bin deserves it! I think his character could easily be messed up due to over-the-top drama, but he played the charming jerk persona of Joon Yeong just perfectly, from confident smirk to ugly tears to polarizing breakdown due to his growing illness, how heartbreaking and believable.

Though his story was so sad, I did not cry the whole time watching this. How come? I felt annoyed with No Eul and her motivation, she's a hassle and keep making reckless decisions. This is not to fault Suzy because she has great chemistry with Woo Bin. It's her character I couldn't sympathize with despite her struggles. Finally, it was a good ending, it felt justified and concluded. Something that I've been missing a lot in dramas in these recent years.

A few years ago I watched The Heirs, where Kim Woo Bin was co-main actor, didn't like the heirs but I liked his character, so a friend of mine, highly recommended to watch this Kdrama, it took my a few years and and a notice on Netflix that the series is going down on middle of May to get me to watch it and I don't regret it, the best part is the music, very captivating, then the story, and last the male lead. He was reliable, I believed him and it something that I'm looking for in series, that connection with the characters and their story.

I cried so much that I almost died.

This drama is very good and made me cry so much.
It affected me so much that even years after I finished I still could feel the pain in my heart. It destroyed my heart in to a million pieces. Good Show, is a 10 for me, you should definitely watch!! But if you do not wish to suffer do not watch it.
It was one of my first ever dramas and the one that stayed with me for a very long time and also I love the main actor I followed him since heirs.🥰💕
definitely would watch again if I need to cry 😭😁

Why I watched it: Mostly Kim Woo Bin, but also to see a real-life relationship translated to the screen.

Was it worth it: As worth it as it could have been.

What I liked the most: It didn’t pull any punches, especially towards the end. Have tissues ready.

What I disliked the most: Maybe it was just the character, but Suzy was extremely annoying. Especially when crying.

Moment Meter: 4/10 – There were a couple of good ones in there.

Other thoughts: I wasn’t expecting too much from this drama so I was pleasantly surprised. I’m a fan of the male tsundere character type so Woo Bin’s character grew on me fast. The immediate plot kept me entertained to the point where I kept forgetting the main underlying issue and needed the reminders that they squeezed in there every now and then. It was very engaging and rarely lulled. About 60% of the time, Suzy’s character annoyed the crap out of me. Especially when she was whining. I lost grasp of the story for a bit when they jumped from past to present but not enough to faze me completely. Woo Bin is an actor I look out for but he’s not on “the list,” so if you’re a die-hard Woo Bin fan you’ll probably really enjoy it. The star power wasn’t enough to take it up another level for me.

Conclusion: It watched like a generic drama to me. It was entertaining, but didn’t really stand out in an extraordinary way.

This drama wasn’t on my priority watchlist because I knew what was it about (for someone who has been through cancer in their family it’s difficult to watch a series like this), and I didn’t like very much neither of the main leads (overall Suzy after Big, what did you expect?).
On the other hand, I thought it was a sad romance story, so, I needed the right time to see it…
But I have to say that this drama is much more than that. It talks about family, friends and justice. If you are expecting to watch a romance story, with a lot of cheesy moments between the main couple, forget it! They’re are more time apart than together. But if you want to see a story about how to put things that are wrong in their right place, this is it!

The casting is fine. I liked them all. Even Suzy did a good job. But, really, Kim Woo Bin IS the show. He is simply amazing! I’ve never felt so much before the pain he’s feeling, the sadness and the emotions he felt. Really, only to see this actor it worths to see the show.

Music: is really good too. Although Kim Woo Bin in my opinion hasn’t a good voice, even his songs are nice.

Rewatch: perhaps I would see part of the show, but I
don’t think I’ll be able to watch again the last episode, it’s too sad.

Sometimes it’s hard to follow the painful moments of the main lead, but at the same time it is a beautiful and positive drama. So, if you have time to get sad, and you don’t mind to use a lot of Kleenex, watch it!

I’ve just watched it in 2021 and it’s wonderful xxxx

Amazing lead actors in Woo & Bae Suzy I wasn’t put off by reviews who only want fairy tale endings. This was such a good drama, the actors were an incredibly strong and talented group who had good chemistry & had me unable to stop watching.
I laughed, cried, played the OST over & over which was surprising for the eclectic mix.
Having just watched Crash landing on you (CLOY) and Itaewon Class I wasn’t expecting this to be SO good but it was.
I won’t give anything away but, beautiful acting. I loved it 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️

Uncontrollably Fond me ha decepcionado un poco. Pero aclaremos: una vez más es culpa mía y no de la serie, ni de la calidad de su producción (que dicho sea de paso ha sido muy acertada). El drama no es malo, para nada. De hecho, fue quizá uno de los mejores que hubo en su momento. Me ha costado un poco de esfuerzo adaptarme al ritmo, y la línea de tiempo al inicio también tuvo sus pegas, pero no por eso me atrevería a juzgarlo de manera precipitada, o peor aun, decir que no me gustó.

El peso de la historia no se basa ni siquiera en la agonía de Joon Young sino en un evento del pasado —como casi siempre sucede en los dramas— que involucra a un reconocido fiscal, que casualmente es el padre de él, pero el señor no lo sabe porque la madre soltera jamás se lo dijo y crió al hijo en su soledad y en su pobreza. El fiscal en cuestión se ensució las manos de corrupción cuando la hija de un poderoso arrolló con su auto al papá de No Eul y este falleció días después en el hospital (su muerte me supo a poco, la verdad; le faltó feeling) y No Eul al enterarse de esa sucia maniobra decide sabotear la campaña del fiscal a toda costa, cosa que pone en alerta a Joon Young y a su medio hermano Choi Ji Tae (al que no conoce, ni es tampoco su medio hermano), y cada quien por su lado stalkea a la chica para evitar que revele información comprometedora sobre el padre de ambos.

En medio de este forcejeo invisible Joon Young hace una maniobra arriesgada al robarle a ella el material que amenaza con divulgar y No Eul termina golpeada por otro auto, sufriendo casi el mismo destino que su padre, pero logrando sobrevivir (incluso tuvo un paro cardiaco en el quirófano y tal, muy fuerte todo). En ese punto de la historia se separan, y cada quien hace con su vida lo que le viene en gana: ella se convierte en una directora de documentales que ansía cualquier cosa que destile dinero para pagar a los usureros que prestaron dinero a su papá. Él abandona su idea de convertirse en fiscal y consigue ser un afamado artista Hallyu. Y el medio hermano, el tercero en discordia, lleva una doble vida donde vela por la estabilidad de No Eul haciéndose pasar por alguien tan económicamente pobre como ella, mientras que por otro lado maneja, junto con su madre, una empresa de renombre y su padre le arregló un matrimonio con la chica que mató al papá de No Eul (el matrimonio estaba arreglado desde antes del accidente, por supuesto).

Vaya drama, ¿no? Vaya lío. Lo de Uncontrollable Fond sí que es un triángulo amoroso marcadisimo desde el principio: Joon Young está enamorado de No Eul, pero a ella le gusta Ji Tae porque siempre ha estado ahí para apoyarse en él, además cuida de ella y de su hermano menor, pero Ji Tae siente que no merece a No Eul, tanto por lo sucedido en el pasado como por el hecho de tener esa doble vida que ella desconoce totalmente en la que ya está comprometido en matrimonio con una chica a la que no ama. A Jung Eun no la meto aquí, porque pobrecita, como personaje me ha dado muchísima pena. Creo que un maniquí o un títere nos habría sido de más utilidad a pesar de la tarea tan marcada que traía desde el principio. No deja de ser la niña mimada de papá que lo tuvo todo siendo jóven y exige todo siendo adulta, aunque no tiene ni un pelo de tonta y para ser sincera es bastante astuta. También sabe cómo utilizar esa astucia para su propio beneficio, ya sea picándole las costillas a Ji Tae con verdades amargas que le carcome la conciencia o poniendo cara de nuera ideal ante sus suegros a la primera oportunidad. Se agradece que la hermana-fanática, aun en su locura, tenga esos aires de sentido común para darse cuenta que una cuñada tan perfecta no puede ser normal.

Una vez expuestos esos tres o cuatro asuntos que tienen sus repercusiones en la actualidad, el panorama se limpia un poco y la estructura narrativa mejora.

También me la he pasado rechinando los dientes la primera mitad de la serie porque me enerva un poco la sangre ver cómo le caían insultos por parte del fandom a Shin Young Ok, la madre de Joon Young, a la que no bajaban de ser una mujer despreciable y egoísta, mientras se quedaban taaaan anchos con las palabras dichas; sólo para después darle una lluvia de elogios al chico, porque él es perfecto, y tierno, y ama a No Eul desde su juventud; y su propuesta durante la filmación del documental fue muy romántica: ¡Ah! Eso de vivir un romance apasionado durante tres meses es tan precio... ¡STOP! Detengan el auto porque así no va la cosa. No defenderé a la madre de Joon Young sólo porque sí, la mujer está tan cegada por la rabia que toma como escudo a su hijo para convertirlo en fiscal —nada más porque le nace de las entrañas— y para poder pararse frente al padre del muchacho y restregarle en la cara que ella sola pudo criar a un ser humano hecho, derecho y leal. Un ciudadano digno producto de una madre soltera que se partió el lomo y la vida para que su futuro fuera brillante y prometedor. Sí, es una actitud sumamente egoísta, pero eso no la hace ser una mala persona. También ella se siente traicionada porque el chico le prometió que sí, que sería el fiscal ideal que lograría defender a los que no tenían recursos y ponerse del lado de los que nadie miraba, y él, al final, se pasó todo por el forro sin decirle nada a ella e hizo lo que quiso. Eso también es sumamente egoísta. Pero más egoísta aún es querer montar una apasionante relación sentimental por tres meses con una chica que no sabes si todavía te quiere y sin decirle en ningún momento que te estás muriendo.

La peculiar relación de Joon Young con su madre ha sido la que más he disfrutado. Sí, incluso más que la relación tan accidentada con No Eul. Y ve tú a saber por qué. Para ser sincera, a mi me fascina muchísimo ver a la actriz Jin Kyung en pantalla, sobre todo en papeles como este, donde toma la imagen de una mujer con muchos matices, más de los que se podrían intuir en un principio, y convierte su cuerpo y su mente en un templo donde convergen infinidad de experiencias difíciles o sensaciones asfixiantes, pero que ella siempre calla con rectitud.

Joon Young no es imbécil y la paciencia hacia su madre es infinita: entiende que ella está molesta por su actitud en su juventud y que al pasar los años aquel rencor se añeja y se refuerza ante cada situación donde él hace acto de presencia. Es un sabor amargo que aspira a la perpetuidad y que siempre viene mal disimulado en una negativa a servirle su plato favorito, gritarle tres tonos más arriba que a los demás, colgarle el teléfono cuando le llama, ignorarlo como si todo el mundo existiera menos él, negarlo tres veces antes de que cante el gallo al amanecer, etc. Pero creo que no necesitamos leer entre líneas para saber como espectadores lo que Joon Young sabe como hijo: Ella lo quiere —aunque se repita mil veces la mentira de que no—, y nunca ha dejado de hacerlo. Porque, podría ponerse seria cuando lo ve y tragarse la bilis acumulada durante lustros, pero entiende que el chico sigue siendo una persona buena en esencia, quizá demasiado absorbido por su profesión y por su fama, oculto entre la presunción y la riqueza, pero jamás sería capaz de dañar a nadie y ella siempre lo ha entendido, a pesar de las constantes decepciones a lo largo de los años. (De hecho, la escena final que compartieron me ha dejado lloriqueando como nenaza).

No Eul me quedó debiendo madurez. Creí que la muerte de su padre le daría un golpe en la conciencia que le ayudaría a espabilar un poco y la obligaría a poner los pies en la tierra de una vez. Pero no. Vamos, ni siquiera el accidente que casi le cuesta la vida le sacudió la mente adormilada. No le negaré el derecho sobrehumano que hace para poner un plato de comida decente en su mesa, ni tampoco el amor que siente hacía su hermano, pero esa actitud aniñada que tiene de nacimiento le sigue como una sombra incluso en la actualidad y eso le resta una seriedad necesaria como personaje protagónico. De vez en cuando hasta la sentí muy plana, sin tridimensionalidad, casi absorbida por el ambiente. Quizá es una exigencia mía exagerada, culpa de mis altas expectativas, pero a ella, únicamente por las circunstancias vividas, se le pudieron exprimir miles de posibilidades. Sobre todo como documentalista, la deuda con los usureros y esa inestabilidad emocional que le sigue desde que quedó huérfana y tuvo que aprender a ganarse cada migaja de pan con el sudor de su frente. Todo eso se obtiene a base de experiencia, pero también de sacrificio. Sí que es muy bonito que se preocupe por la alimentación de su hermano o por tratar de limpiar su reputación a las nueve de la mañana después de que Joon Young hizo con ella lo que quiso arriba del escenario (y una horda de fanáticas casi la queman en leña verde), pero a pesar de eso su pasividad me resultaba abrumadora y no la he terminado de entender en lo absoluto. Además, el triángulo amoroso que se traen a cuestas la primera mitad del drama puso mi paciencia hasta el límite entre tanto andar en glorieta, terminando en el mismo lugar donde comenzaron y sin ver a dónde conducirá todo eso.

Al que me costó mucho entenderle su estrategia de juego fue a Ji Tae. Entiendo que le tenga gran estima a su papá, aunque éste no sea biológico, y cargue con el resentimiento de sus deslices en el pasado, pero estuvo al lado de No Eul desde hace varios años mintiendo deliberadamente sin detenerse a pensar cinco minutos que tanta atención hacia ella podía derivar en un interés más personal que el de la mera amistad. Quizás eran mentiras piadosas, creadas con el remordimiento de saber que su padre no era una paloma de la paz, justa y honesta, cuando se trataba de proteger a un político. Pero esta doble vida que llevó durante tanto tiempo me ha resultado un poco pretenciosa, juzgando desde la perspectiva de saberlo heredero absoluto del imperio de sus padres, y entendiendo que sus relaciones amorosas a veces estaban dictadas por el destino, el bienestar y la perpetuidad de la familia y no por lo que a él le naciera del corazón. De hecho, él es muy parecido a su madre. Ésta mujer sí que tiene cola que le pisen. A pesar de ser chantajeada por el cuñado como si fuera una atracción mecánica, Lee Eun Soo sabe que varios errores cometidos antes han sido culpa suya. Y sus silencios, la manía absurda que tiene de callar cuanta información le caiga en las manos, es la que la tiene en ese perpetuo estado de alerta del que le cuesta mucho reponerse. Y la verdad es que se lo merece, por soberbia. Pretendiendo retener algo que sabe bien que no le pertenece. A eso hay que agregarle el hecho de que el fiscal Choi Hyun Joon no tiene la menor idea de que tuvo un hijo con Shin Young Ok, en parte porque Eun Soo no se lo quiso decir. Por eso no entiendo el motivo de su enojo cuando él acompaña a su hija al concierto del muchacho o cuando la lleva a la alfombra roja de la premiación.

Y aunque la mitad del drama mejora en cuanto a argumentación, no puedo decir lo mismo de la pareja principal, que me quedó debiendo tres leguas de romance y dos toneladas de escenas cuquis al por mayor. De verdad hubiera deseado que la relación sentimental entre Joon Young y No Eul fuera más profunda y más extensa. Digo, detengámonos a pensar un momento y miremos en retrospectiva: la serie se llama Uncontrollably Fond ¿y qué? ¿Cuándo le vimos a estos dos esa cualidad? De hecho, ¿cuántos momentos tiernos compartieron juntos? ¿cuántos fueron sólo la imaginación de No Eul? ¿En cuántos de esos momentos uno de los dos no estaba dormido? ¿o cuántos de ellos no se vieron afectados por los desplantes de él, los sufrimientos de ella o por la demencia que le empezó a invadir en sus últimos días? Esta pareja me recuerda a la de City Hunter, sobre todo en el arco final, donde el protagonista hacía hasta lo vomitable para alejar a la chica de él para no herirla más de lo debido; pero por inercia pasó justo lo contrario y la prepotencia y la frialdad de Joon Young no la he podido digerir en lo absoluto. Pero terminó siendo aún más grotesco ver a No Eul hundida en un dolor absurdo, victimizada por todos lados y atontada por la falta de comprensión de los que la rodeaban. La mujer apenas podía mantenerse de pie cuando era vapuleada por los cuatro costados, oye, eso es masoquismo. Si a eso le agregamos el romance ficticio que se montó Joon Young con Jung Eun para exprimirle la confesión del crimen cometido en su juventud pues vaya truño, ¿eh? Hay mil maneras diversas de consumir el valioso tiempo en un drama sin necesidad de dañar sentimentalmente a la protagonista principal de una manera tan barata y triste. Salvo el último episodio el resto de su tiempo juntos me ha parecido muy poco memorable. Y eso es lamentable.

La trama ajena a ellos ha brillado aún más y eso lo agradezco, sino hubiera sido por ella no me hubiera atascado los dos meses de visionado que han caído sobre mi. Las cosas se resolvieron de manera justa y coherente, aunque no puedo dejar de pensar que la mamá de Ji Tae se merecía un final más perverso, sólo porque sí (por ser tan perra). En un mundo utópico, en un mundo de colores y piruletas, los años pasarían y Ji Tae iría tras No Eul y dejaría de lamerle las botas a Jung Eun junto con toda su corrupta miseria. Es un autosacrificio que me sabe rancio y falso, porque ni siquiera en ese escueto flashback que vemos en el último episodio la química entre ellos se asomó con timidez. La hermana de Ji Tae y el hermano de No Eul harían bonita pareja también. La relación entre No Jik y Choi Ha Roo fue peculiar, pero el esfuerzo para que brillaran pudo ser mayor para que éste no quedara tan seco. Al final habría sido un tanto absurdo que ambas parejas de hermanos terminaran juntos, claro, pero también tuvieron su encanto a pesar de los malentendidos y el humor ensimismado de los dos. En fin, si les gustan esas series donde la pareja principal casi nunca está junta, o cuando lo están la pasan fatal, esta es definitivamente la serie que les gustaría visualizar... ¿Saben qué? A estas alturas agradezco que no hayan profundizado aún más en su relación porque entonces sí, ese final me hubiera obligado a votar los tres litros de lágrimas que se me atascaron en los ojos hace unas horas.

So I ultimately watched Uncontrollably Fond because of the OST and short clips which sounded and looked really good on Youtube. In the past, I came across Uncontrollably Fond and moved past it because it's tagged as a tragedy, which is not a genre I frequent. Yes, Uncontrollably Fond is a tragedy, but I don't regret one second of it (which is really odd and rare for me, since I don't really like tragedies...)

This was one of those dramas that was nearly perfect. It had it's flaws that I don't really feel are worth mentioning because inevitably, they will deter you from watching this. Let me tell you why you should watch it.
Uncontrollably Fond proves that you can still love, even if you are going to die soon. It reminds you that it's never too late to remedy relationships that need fixing. It shows us that while we all have our flaws, we are all loved by others in different ways. And we will all be missed. And we all die some day.

I watched this drama with my mother who got sucked in about half way through the drama. Yes, parts of this drama can be a bit slow and some of the decisions our MC's make can be viewed as particularly frustrating, but those things didn't bother me. I loved watching them relive memories that gave us more details to their past. I loved watching the MC's fall in love again. I loved the love our main girl had for her little brother. I loved the love demonstrated between mother and son. I loved watching the bad guys get crushed. I loved seeing karma finally dishing out what was due.

Yes, I chocked up many times and SOBBED (literally, wailed in my living room along with my poor mother who had to take a nap afterwards because she was so tired from crying), but it was all because of love. Because of the mother's and son's love. Because of the little brother's love. Because of the main character's love for each other.

Uncontrollably Fond is similar to A Walk to Remember. We know that the main character is going to die in the end. There's no miracle or magic or experimental cure. It's life. And it was shown in such a delicate way that I couldn't help but appreciate this drama. The ending wraps up everything so well. I would have been happier with a baby in the end, but to see that everyone had grieved and remembered him, but moved on to live their lives sat well with me. Just like in the beginning of A Walk to Remember, our MC was in troublesome circumstances and the other MC came in and helped change their lives around for the better.

20 EPISODES FULL OF FILLERS

I'd say that this drama can finish in 10-12 episodes instead of 20 episodes which they filled it with more twists, plots, confusion over feeling or self-realization, back-on-forth love (or not to love). The main idea of every damn 'Choi' family created such terrible connection that every 'Shin' had to bear hardship and sadness. Yeah...every plots went around about these 2 family names.

Shin Joon-young (Kim Woo-bin) and No-Eul (Bae Suzy) were high school classmates who were separated during their teenage years due to an ill-fated relationship, but later meet each other in adulthood. Shin Joon-young is now a top actor-singer (Jerk, rude, devilish gorgeous, rich, sickly, cold), while No-Eul (emotional, unlucky, beautiful, poor, pity, money minded) was a documentary producer. No-Eul had a tough childhood; her father died in a hit-and-run, prompting No-Eul to quit school and make a living for herself and her brother. Shin Joon-young, had his life planned out for him. His mother wanted him to become a prosecutor to follow in the footsteps of his estranged father, but an incident caused him to quit law school and become a singer-actor. His mother disowned him, couldn't understand why he quit law, she hated his celebrity status. She had him when she's 22 and impregnated by boyfriend Choi Hyeon-joon which he left her for another woman and became the source of suffering for all characters in this drama.

The two later reunite when No-Eul is tasked to film Shin Joon-young's documentary. She convinced the producer that she can obtain his consent for the documentary shoot. Initially, Joon-young gave No-Eul a hard time, but he eventually agrees to participate in the documentary. Working together didn't give them solitude, more like battle of heart, like one pulling rope tight and lose, never ending confusion because of circumstances. Joon-Young didn't give shit to anything (breaking contracts, change mind in last minute, rude, dismiss press), nothing to lose demeanor that made every person frustrated, but he had secrets that he wouldn't admit...he's terminally ill - a cancer that only allowed him 3 months to live...he's also guilty on action he caused car accident to No-Eul 5 years earlier....and he's the son of congressman Choi Hyeon-joon out of wedlock.

Okay, I think Kim Woo-Bin is gorgeous and he has the cold eyes good for a rude guy character while he also could be a charmer for his mom. Bae Suzy....she often delivered her dialog screaming on top of her lung! Not to mention her acting cute (ackh...) I don't understand where they supposedly madly in love each other but there wasn't warmness in relationship, she didn't hug him back, kiss on peck, no tender glances. I can shorten the episode by suggesting some changes in plots: give No-Eul compensation for the death of her father, move away and move on, be transparent (seems everybody loves to held grudges and keeping secrets). Of course, this is drama, the more melodramatic the longer episode becomes. At the end though, did Shin Joon-Yong died from his cancer? As No-Eul wishing to see him tomorrow? Possibly season 2? Hope not but I don't mind to see Kim Woo-BIn again. LOL

Right in the heart

I loved this drama. Yes it was emotional, yes it gets you thinking, attacks your senses from all sides. It was beautifully done, excellent cinematography and the topic of terminal illness handled with care & realistically.

Characters were all well portrayed. I literally wanted to know everyone’s story. It all knitted together well. Powerful scenes that left you going through each emotion with the characters.

Weeks later, this drama is still on my mind. Listening to the OST in my car, I sometimes can’t make it through an entire song. Maybe because of the ML own battle with cancer and art imitating life.

I would rewatch, only when I am feeling braver stronger and know it won’t wreck my for days!!

When you are up to try something different, give this a try. I was totally surprised by this drama.
Really was not what I was expecting. At all. Kim Woo Bin at his absolute best imho.

This is a drama that will break your hearts if you were able to withstand the pain for 20 episodes. What made me watch this was the pairing of Kim Woo Bin (whom I love since The Heirs, I had a second male lead syndrome while watching it) and Bae Suzy (watched her in Dream High, she was still too young there). I was having a summer vacation and had nothing to do, I just wanted to watch some korean drama after a very tiring semester I just finished (never thought watching this will just break me even more).

I will start with the CHARACTERS, Shin Joon Young played by Kim Woo Bin, was perfect for the role. He acted like a top star haha, very much like KWB in real life. But, as a top star with an illness fighting to live. Just wow. KWB played it very well. I just saw him on a different light. He made me cry and feel the pain he's been going through both physically and emotionally. My favorite was the scene with his father and mother towards the end of the drama and the shower scene. It breaks my heart remembering those scenes. Next, Noh Eul played by Suzy. I think it was good performance from her considering the amount of improvement since I saw her in Dream High. The character Noh Eul, I'm seeing Suzy, as what would she really feel if she was Noh Eul. The scenes in which Noh Eul is being cute and playful was I think very Suzy. Haha.

The STORY is so painful. In the beginning you would see the chemistry between the two main leads as the drama begins to show flashbacks of what really happened between them before the "accident". It was so cute, like a typical RomCom story but it will change as the drama tells all the obstacles that the leads will face. The ending was already set from episode 1. You know what will happen to Shin Joon Young. I was able to hold on despite of the pain that this drama put me through because it has an interesting story. The only thing that I did not like is how cruel Shin Joon Young could be sometimes, but still I understand what he's going through. He always had guilt inside his heart, and he wanted to punish himself because of it.

The cinematography was awesome. Soundtrack was so good. I recommend to watch this drama because it will be worth it in the end. There are lessons to pick up from this drama.

Remember: It's the stories that break our hearts that stick with us the longest. :)
