OVERALL One of these few dramas that successfully combine romance, suspense, comedy, drama, character development and social critique. Watch if 1) like me, you're a sucker for dramas that inspire you and make you think, 2) You've seen a few average dramas and you want something a little better. Don't watch if 1) You have a hard time with characters that bear flaws, 2) You nitpick about small plot mistakes. THE STORY Gripping tale, made of plenty of plot twists and enough suspense to keep you on the edge of your seat, uncertain about where the story will take you, from beginning to end. The characters evolve throughout the drama - and not just the main protagonists, almost all of them - but the best thing is, they are all relatively 'complex', which in my own speech means that they all have flaws and/or vulnerabilities, but all end up getting some kind of positive emotion from you, if not love, at least pity or understanding. The story is also one that makes you think about the world and how you've been living, with some quite deep lines and conversations. There might be a few plot elements that don't seem very realistic, and the romances might seem a little bland, but there's been a lot worst in Kdramaland, trust me. THE ACTING All the cast did a pretty good job in this drama. I just can't give a 10 because I thought there wasn't much chemistry between Lee Boyoung and Lee Jongsuk, and it was a shame, it would have made it perfect. THE MUSIC Quite good, well chosen. My personal favorite: Every Single Day, by Echo. Rock or acoustic version, the song's cool. REWATCH VALUE Rewatched.
