Disappointing! Feels drastically different from S1

I am really disappointed. I watched Season 1 shortly before Season 2 came out and was super excited. The Teasers looked promising and the cast looked fantastic in their new styles. Especially So Mun with the longer curly/wavy hair. Cho Byeong Kyu can shape-shift with his different hairstyles. But styling and looks is not enough to create a great follow-up season.

Where this season went wrong:
- The comedy is over the top and not my taste. Especially because it wasn't like this in S1
- The dynamic between the characters feels different as well. Less serious.
- The tone of this season is generally different from season1 and not in a good way. S1 was more personal and serious
- The Plot was running in circles. So much that it was getting draggy and boring.
- They wasted Yoo In Soo. His character was really annoying. I thought it would get better after ep 3&4 but it did not
- I don't know why, but it just felt hollow

If you do a second season with a different tone etc. ... do it at least good. Not like this.

Character-driven with a lovely ML

A slow-paced slice-of-life drama with a little bit of mystery. I would say this drama’s main genre is slice-of-life. But we also get to see some romance, sport-related scenes, and mystery. It’s a bold choice to mix all of these genres. But it felt authentic and natural all the time. That’s because they kept it simple in the form of slice-of-life. This is a character-driven drama.

What I liked:
- The Main lead Kim Bok Doo. I just loved him. He’s a bit of a dork but emotionally intelligent and adorable. He might seem a bit dumb, but he actually observes his surroundings and is just a really nice guy. It was refreshing to see a ML like him. Innocent, naive and very kind. He grew on me.
- The characters grew on me, and I was never disappointed when the scenes changed and we saw different characters. I was interested in all of them because they felt relatable and natural. The villagers and their gossip, as annoying as gossiping and rumors are, they are very realistic. The way they showed how rumors can hurt people and how fast they spread, was very cleverly solved. You had silent characters, stubborn characters, mysterious characters, adorable ones… just a perfect mix.
- The way the romance progressed was cute.
- The actors and actresses. Jang Dong Yoon had two airing dramas at a time. My man is cupid and like flowers in sand. He can act. But for like flowers in sand he even put on some weight to fit into the ssireum-theme. I don’t really want to compare these two dramas, but I personally prefer Like Flowers in sand. All of the actors and actresses did an outstanding job, had natural chemistry and fit into the drama as a whole.
- The sport elements of this drama. I loved seeing ssireum. It was really interesting.
- I didn’t mind the murder/mystery parts of this drama. I normally dislike it if they mix it into a romance drama. But the way they constructed it and integrated it into the whole storyline was nicely done.
- I wished for romance between Hyun Wook and Mi Ran, instead we got Hyun Wook and Seok Hee bromance which was cute. I can’t even complain now. Hyun Wook was an intriguing character in general. At least for me. Seemed like he was on vacation in the town, and it was funny to see how he slowly adapted and got to know everyone. It seemed like he never wanted to leave. But the way they developed this was very subtle and clever

What I “disliked”:
There weren’t that many points, that I disliked. I would call them flaws I can live with. I love the drama and still accept that it has some flaws in my eyes. But there are very minor flaws.
- The Fl always hitting the ML. I know this is common in kdramas but It’s not something I’m fond of.
- I would have not minded a few more episode to wrap up the ending. I want to see more. Yes, they did wrap up all the storylines. But after taking so much time on building the relationships they could have gotten even further. I guess wishing for more scenes of the friends shows how much the characters grew on me.

I enjoyed this drama very much. The way they executed the slice-of-life is definetly my taste. For now I feel like I have to give it a 9/10 which is a very good rating. In my rating system drama with 9 stars and higher belong to my all-time-favourites. But we will see if stays there or if I give it an 8.5.

Good but something was missing

I know ... I know... It's loved by many and has a 9.2 rating on MDL. I'll give it a 6.5, which is not bad at all. It's good in my rating system. I can totally see why so many loved this show and why it has a high rating. But my expectations were really high and left me disappointed. This is because I was looking for something different. Here are a few point I want to say:

- The first two episodes could not grab my attention. I was not invested and because I was desperately looking forward for the romance between Yi Chan and Cheong Ah... but it took too long to get there
- Yi Chan and Cheong Ah: I was super invested in their romance but it fell a bit short. I wanted to see Yi Chans feelings develop but they did not have that many scenes. That being said, the scenes they had are the ones I loved.
- Honestly, I was just not interested in the main couple and I did not feel the chemistry
- The ending felt a bit short
- I loved that it covered the topic of being hearing impaired

Cute but struggled with balancing the genres

I said it before: The award for the worst airing schedule goes to ... A good day to be a dog
Firstly, before I started the drama I thought the synopsis sounds really ridiculous. Or I thought there was no way to execute this on TV without making it seem ridiculous. Something like this would better left as a webtoon. Surprisingly, it was way better than I thought.

Things I Liked:
- The story sounds silly, but they executed it quite well. It was cute.
- The characters were likeable and the main couple was enjoyable
- I like the mountain god. I know he is hated. But the story was getting a little bit boring. It might just be that I started to be a fan of Lee Hyun Woo. His acting is excellent and I love his expressive eyes. I hope he gets a new main-role soon. His love story in the drama was quite enjoyable.
- At times it was actually hilarious and it was entertaining
- Btw... Eunwoo's acting has gotten better, and his delivery felt more naturally. I still think there is still a long way to go. But his acting does not pull you out of the story

What I disliked:
- The airing schedule! One of the worst enemies this drama could have was its own airing schedule. What was that? Just horrible. Especially the beginning, where the episode were released one every two weeks. But I have to say I kept on watching, so I must have been invested in the drama. Who knows... maybe I would have ditched the drama earlier if I watched it in one go.
- The recaps every episode. Because of the airing schedule, they added long recaps at the beginning of each episode
- The drama had trouble balancing all the genres it wanted to convey. It was a romcom only, then it was fantasy drama only and the last episode was happy romcom again. They could have integrated more of the fantasy-story earlier on, without focusing whole episodes on that. The tone-shift felt very bad made. I personally like the Mountain gods' story, but objectively viewed it was badly handled. Just like the whole dog-story was suddenly done.
- The last episode felt unreal. After all the drama, it suddenly shifted to romcom and fillers. Instead of nicely ending the story of the mountain god and the girl, their ending felt somewhat fabricated and unreal.
- Characters disappeared for some time and suddenly showed up again, after I didn't care for them any more

Objectively speaking, I can understand if someone rates this drama lower than a 7/10. But for me personally, even after knowing the flaws... it was quite enjoyable for a romcom-fantasy mix. Shout out for Lee Hyun Woo, who's acting I really enjoyed. It's still entertaining, and usually I easily lose interest in romcom's. So it is still a 7/10 for me. May change my mind later on and give it a 6.5... but right now that's how I feel about it.

Cute but boring

This drama is okay. It's cute but boring and does'nt reinvent the wheel.

What I Liked:
- It's cute
- It's easy to watch
- Youngest sister's romance plotline
- ML and FL are likable
- At least the first episodes were entertaining to watch

What disliked:
- the palace/mystery plotline -> it was boring as hell and I skipped the scenes
- I don't know why but FL acting was somewhat boring, rowoon was not better
- Of course the drama is about matchmaking... but I think they could have managed the different romantic plotlines better... it was kinda difficult for me to remember who is who. Some of the plotline lacked depth. I would have liked it, if the youngest sister and her match had more screentime

bog-standard story

I don’t feel very strongly about this drama. It’s average, it’s okay. Nevertheless, ;) here are a few points I want to say…

What I liked:
- Intriguing start -> The first few episodes were interesting. They grabbed my attention. After watching the teasers, it was clear, that I was interested and would definitely start this show. Mmh I was especially intriguing were the episodes from 1-6.
- I was in the mood for romance and loved how they slowly started to catch feelings for each other. It felt like Do Do Hee was always very in tune with her own feelings, which leads me to the next point
- The FL-> Do Do Hee. A very confident FL. Confident, yet very aware of her status and aware of her position in the world. She knew she was alone and stood up for herself. Her choices were understandable, and it was very easy to connect to her. I just really liked her character. At least for the first episodes. I mean they didn't really use the potential and kept her developing static.
- The Music -> Another drama with an OST that suits my taste. The music stood out and pushed the drama’s quality. Nice sounds and songs that flowed nicely with the story.
- Expensive production. The set and everything did not feel cheap. Everything looked expensive and well produced. I liked the costume design and everything.
- My Demon couple has breathtaking good visuals.
- Kim Yoo Jung!!!

What I disliked:
- The story progression after ep 6/7 -> the story progression after the main leads get together is always critical. For me personally the lovey-dovey scenes were too much. Maybe I can conclude from this, that I was not feeling the couple to begin with. If I love two characters, I love their together time as well. They’ve had so many of the dating-scenes in this drama, which were a bit boring to me. Or maybe it just sometimes feels like the writer/producers check these scenes of a checklist… Like for example: We now need two to three episodes of staring into each other’s eyes, cuddling, eating cake etc. to make the viewers happy and after that we are going to make them suffer. This is a formular for many kdramas. I’m not critiquing this formular. I know that many people like it and that it brings familiarity to the plate. But it was very bog-standard in this one and it felt like I was watching points being checked off a checklist. Not very nicely integrated into a flowing storyline. Doesn’t help that I wasn’t a fan of the chemistry. In german we would call it 0815.
- Murder/Killer Plotline:-> didn’t care for it. Was a bit boring.
- Past-Lovers Plotline: -> didn't care for it either. I don’t need lukewarm past-lover plotlines to deepen the relationship, if writers are not confident that the main storyline of their romance is enough to keep the viewers invested. If they include past-lovers, please do it in a new way or fully fleshed out.
- The recycling of scenes -> Rescuing and saving again and again
- The most standardized SML ever -> Just unnecessary love-triangle since he didn’t stand a chance anyway. Useless and boring as hell.
- Song Kang -> I feel like I need to be very careful with voicing my opinion on this matter since he has a lot of fans… but without any prejudice… I was not a 100% sold on his acting in this one. Especially his comedic timing was questionable. He had some comedic scenes that were supposed to be funny. But I just did not feel it. It all felt the same through the whole drama. But it’s not like I can’t stand his acting or anything. Just a sidenote: Song Kang is undeniably an incredible handsome man.
- The comedy -> This point goes in hand with the one before. I was just not a fan of the comedy. The way they edited it or maybe even produced it felt off. Humor is subjective and, in this drama, it wasn’t my taste. With Song Kang it seems like it was partly his comedic timing and partly how they staged it in general
- The Side-characters -> None were intriguing to me. Mostly boring and sometimes even… dare I say tacky? Looking at Park Bok Kyu and Shin Da Jeong. I’m not criticizing the actors and actresses. I think they are all very talented. Especially Seo Jung Yeon. It was just hard for me to connect to any of these characters.

In some cases, I don’t even mind over the top or tacky comedy. But it’s very subjective and hard for me to pinpoint why I like it in one drama and not the other. Maybe I just have a complicated and complex relationship to humor in TV series and Movies…
Lastly, I want to say that I am not searching for perfection in a drama. Not at all. I even know my favorite Dramas have flaws, but I am willing to accept and embrace them. In the end I need to be able to at least either connect with the characters or the plot must intrigue me. Sadly, this drama didn’t do that for me. My review is not supposed to be hateful in any way. I’m just trying to give reasoning for my rating. If you are wondering where this rating stands in my rating system:
9, 9.5, 10 : Personal Favourite / 8, 8.5: Great / 7, 7.5: Really Good/ 6, 6.5 Good/ 4.5, 5, 5.5: OK / 3, 3.5, 4: Bad/ 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 : Horrible

The drama is not horrible but it isn’t very good either. Just OK in my opinion.

Better than I thought

Initially I didn't expect to like this series at all. Especially because of the title and poster... it seemed a bit cheesy tbh. But I began to like it after ep 3/4. Kudos to the writing of a non-toxic and cute relationship for that. It's a nice watch. I gave it a 6/10 which is a good rating. I think a 5.5 or 5 rating could be appropiate as well. But since I had a surpisingly good time with it for many episodes, my rating is a bit higher than that. It's a sweet romance you can use as an in-between series or just as a feel-good drama. I guess it has the potential to get quite boring if you binge watch it.

PRO:
- Writing of the characters and romance: the romance was healthy and cute, I really liked the episodes where they were slowly building up the relationship between the leads
- Acting of the SML and FL, give Seo Ji Hoon another main role in a proper drama please...

CONTRA
-Murder mystery plot-line: just a matter of taste, I personally dislike murder mysteries in the romance genre most of the time, I thought it was boring and the plot-twist did not catch me becaue I didn't care, I started to skip these parts
-ML's acting: I do think Hwang Min Hyun's acting has improved, but it still felt odd and empty at times

RATING: Good 6/10

An okayish/good drama if you want something lighthearted. Just don't expect anything too complex. I had a good time with it and that's it.

A Gem in Kdrama-World

Well, this is the end of a long journey and yearning. I absolutely loved Part 1. I did not expect to love it that much and in my humble opinion... it's a masterpiece. But it was not completed and we obviously needed a Part 2. Even though I was scared how it will play out. I think Part 1 is stronger than Part 2, but I still loved it. I gave Part 1 a 10/10 and Part 2 a 9.5/10. It's hard to be subjective, since My Dearest is already on my list of all-time-favourites.

Before going into my thought on Part 2, I want to add a few of my thoughts of art 1 since they are still the same show and actually not a different season or anything:
- After watching the first two episodes I was not sure if I would like it or not and could not tell where the story was going
- Episodes 3 & 4 of Part 1 are brilliant: The happiness and "naivety" of people living in peace and then showing the horrors of war
- I love love love the characters! They are flawed, this is what makes them interesting. I could feel all the emotions they were feeling. The acting was amazing.
- Slowburn Romance at its best. The chemistry between the leads is wonderful
- The Show pulls you in and you won't be able to leave
- Beautiful music

These points are still relevant for Part 2. But here are a few thoughts on Part 2 to explain why I think it is "flawed":
- Gag Hwa... I did not need her in the story. She adds Drama, which causes for more yearning and angst between the leads... but I really disliked her
- Side Characters from Part 1 were not that relevant in Part 2
- Part 2 sometimes felt a bit draggy in comparison to Part 1, but maybe that's just me
- The Ending. I feel warm and happy. It's happier than I ever imagined it would be. I still wished for more ending scenes of the other side characters. But I don't want to get greedy.
- A beautiful and capturing show, an underrated gem in Kdrama-World. It's been a long time since I saw a show like this. And right now I am not sure if I ever did.

Has Part 2 flaws? Yes. Do I love and adore it anyway? YES.

What am I supposed to do now? It's over and I feel quite melancholic.

Great action but a few things felt off

It's a short and action-packed show with western vibes. Lots of guns, villages and sand.

What I liked:
• the action-scenes were really good and gripping
• the atmosphere and western-theme was totally new for me in Kdramas. That was quite exciting
• the characters were interesting, but they could have used more time to introduce them, their backstory, development and relationships. But since it's only nine episodes, it did not bother me too much. It's a short-lived series anyway
•the topic of chinese land, japanese money and joseon people

What I disliked:
• I didn't care for the romance
• Sometimes the music felt a bit off and unsuiting in some scenes
• SPOILER: If I remember correctly, the ML gets called by his name a few times and the FL still didn't notice it. She was in a woodenbox while Lee gwang il and Lee Yoon were talking. It was obvious they knew each other and she still doesn't notice it. Maybe it was the circumstances and pressure that her brain went blank. Not that I care, but it was noticeable
• SPOILER: It felt a bit cheesy that the other group suddenly had a perfect match for each bandit to fight against. Sniper against Sniper, strong guy against strong guy, axe guy against axe guy... It felt weird. Where did they come from?
• SPOILER: I kind of wished for Lee gwang il finding out that Hee Shin is working for the independence army ... just to get the satifsfaction from the look on his face

CONCLUSION: Great action, interesting atmosphere and short-lived. A good drama. But that's it.
6.5/7 rating

this show will steal your heart

At least, it stole mine. Where should I begin? Before starting it, I was a little bit sceptical. I was not sure what would await me. But since I like both main actors, I gave it a try anyway. And what should I say? This show is totally my taste. The first two episodes were okay but it was hard to tell where the show was headed. But I remember being in love with the cinematography. It's so beautiful. Episodes 3 and 4 were the ones that totally captured me. From showing the naivety and happiness of people living in peace to showing the horrors of war and the fates of those being confronted with it. This is for everyone that wants a deep story with a slowburn romance. The characters are flawed and that's what I like about them. You can see them grow and make mistakes and there is still so much room for development in part 2. What I love about this show is that the characters exist outside the romance storyline. I wasn't bored of the seperate storylines at all. They gave me inside of who the characters are and made me like them even more. I love both mainleads. They might be clumsy fools when it comes to love. But that's what makes them endearing. Gil Chae is strong in the way she cares for her family and friends and protects them. She is smart as hell. Jang Hyun is smart as well. I love how he questions the authority of the king and is good at scheming. He also protects the people he loves at all costs. The way he presents himself is really manly. Both characters are flawed, but I can understand their worries and why they act the way they do.
Absolutely love this show.

Had potential but sadly not for me

What I liked:
- Smalltown setting > gives good vibes and beautiful landscapes
- The two sister’s romance plotlines
- Depicted family dynamics, daughters worrying about a stubborn mother with health issues > Many people can probably relate to that
- Youngest sister and her daughter -> Their relationship was just heartwarming. The daughter is so mature for her age… you could even think her behavior is more mature than the ML’s 😊
- Everyone knows everyone feels like an realistic depiction of a smalltown setting
- How everyone in town stood up for samdalri and protected her
- The fight between the two towns and the ahjummas on their vehicles (I have been contemplating for over 15 minutes about how the vehicles are called… but I just can’t remember. I feel a bit dumbfoundet. But yeah if I remember I will edit it) were genuinely funny scenes
- Kyung Tae and his romance plotline (which sadly fell very short)

Now what I disliked:
- 2 guys waiting for a woman over 8 years without progressing and expressing their feelings was too much for my taste
- Again, what a boring SML, what a boring way to execute a love triangle, unrealistic and upsetting
- Poorly executed/written flashbacks: I don’t dislike flashbacks in general. But you should do them do well otherwise it seems like poor writing. It’s super boring to include flashbacks in a romance storyline. Either be confident in your romance story and let us viewers start the story where the flashbacks begin or keep them simple. There were so many flashbacks in the romance story. At least in the beginning. The flashbacks in this drama room away for progression, story, and character development. At least it felt like the drama was going on and on without moving forward… instead relying on flashback love mystery that even turned out to be a letdown.
- The grudge of ML father was getting on my nerves. Combined with the miscommunication of the two leads. They were adults but acted childish.
- I couldn’t connect to the main characters and their romance was boring. Shin Hye Sun is an amazing actress and belongs to my favorites. I know this woman can act! I loved and absolutely adored Mr. Queen and Shin Hye Sun in it. That show gave her room to shine. Welcome to Samdalri on the other hand appeared to not be able to use her talent. The way her character was written/edited/portrayed was not my taste. I’m mean I can still respect her work and her acting and I am able to differentiate between her as a person and her different characters. Writing-wise See you in my 19th life and Welcome to Samdalri were disappointing in my eyes. Didn’t help that the chemistry between the leads as their characters was missing. Take a look at how Shin Hye Sun shines in a drama with intriguing characters and good production/writing, like in Mr. Queen. Still think her acting and chemistry with Kim Jung Hyun is unmatched. I also loved Thirty but Seventeen and Angels last mission: Love (even though I’m not sure about the quality of the plot in the last one… I loved it when it aired though). I always wonder why some dramas click and others don’t – Well one thing is for sure… it can’t be Shin Hye Sun acting.
- The drinking scenes > They used excessive drinking as a device to move forward with the plot. This was quite poorly done and overused in this drama. I’m familiar with Korean drinking culture. And I am aware that alcohol can be a big part of a culture (I’m german). Nevertheless, I wish they would sometimes take a more serious approach and see the drinking habits of the characters through a more critical lens. In this drama they even ran in circles with their plot progression because of their drunk scenes.
- I want to be honest- After being half-way through the drama I started to skip the scenes I wasn’t interested in

I can understand why someone would love this show. I can respect if others rate this drama differently. In the end taste is subjective 😊 This was just my experience with the drama.

If you are wondering where this rating stands in my rating system:
9, 9.5, 10 : Personal Favourite / 8, 8.5: Great / 7, 7.5: Really Good/ 6, 6.5 Good/ 4.5, 5, 5.5: OK / 3, 3.5, 4: Bad/ 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 : Horrible

Neither bad, nor good

Looking back this drama, I don't really have fond memories with it. It was okay and that's it. Could have been better for sure. The ending felt a bit odd and rushed. Not really satisfying. They should have used Jin Hee's and Jae Won's plotline more.

PRO:
- Easy to watch
- Slice-of-life
- First few episodes are really enjoyable

CONTRA:
- The Murder Plotline
- Boring at times -> I skipped a lot of scenes that I found boring
- Rushed towards the end + weird ending for my taste
- Why not include more scenes between Jin Hee and her father
- Not memorable
- Wishing for more scences with other characters and not the mother is not a good sign if the premise of the show is a mother-daughter relationship

Neither bad nor good, in my opinion just OK

Good but not great

This is a good drama and I liked it more than I thought I would. I was not interested in a hospital drama since Hospital Playlist. This is not the place to compare those two dramas. Daily Dose of Sunshine does something we see not often enough in Kdramas: It's topic is mental health and mental disorders set in a psychiatry. I think this topic is really important. At the same time there is a need to not only scratch the surface. Here are my thoughts on this show:

What I liked:
- It's sweet
- It's been a while since I saw Park Bo Young, her character was relatable and likable
- I was really invested in the second couple (Sadly more than the main one)
- Covers mental health
- They should bring out a Fantasy drama :) (Those who watched the show will know why)
- From nurse to client, shows everyone can develop a mental disorder
- The pleading for more awareness

What I disliked:
- The story felt very linear and predictable, even boring at times. That's because many of the "cases" in this drama were resolved in the same way. Sometimes not deep enough and too quickly solved for my taste.
- The Work with the clients felt completly flat. At some points the message seemed like "Take your medicine and you will be happy again". I did not like this simplicity. I would have liked to see the doctors work more with the clients and the process of the long way to recovery (see with the case of panic disorder, was resolved quite quickly)
- At first I was interested in the main romance plotline, I even liked both male leads. But after a while I lost interest and the plotline seemed unnecessary. The second couple was more interesting.


Good but not great and a lots of room for improvement.

WOW --- Now who am I?

In this review, I will include some thoughts on Part 1 as well. I honestly wasn't invested from the start. I had a really hard time following the first two episodes, because they couldn't catch me. That's why I put the drama aside and watched others first. I am so glad, that I continued watching. The show was getting better and better. Especially when we got to see Lee Jae Wook's and Lee Do Hyun's stories. By the end of episode 4 I was devestated. And shocked to see my theory, that the two bodies we were seeing were Yi Jae and an innocent person he killed with his suicide, was wrong. I still think that this theory would have made sense for Death's reasoning to punish Yi Jae. But the Drama went a different direction. After Part 1 I was excited for Part 2... and part 2 did not disappoint.

Some thoughts:
- These "reincarnations" I found especially intriguing: Cho tae Sang (Lee Jae Wook), Jang Geon Woo (Lee Do Hyun), Jung Gyu Chul (Kim Jae Wook) and Ahn Ji Hyung (Oh Jung Se)
- I personally preferred Part 2 to Part 1, which is really refreshing to see since it's often enough the other way around
- It felt like Part 2 took more time to really explore each of the characters (even though some characters fell short in Part 1 and 2, the Baby & the homeless Man for example)
- I really enjoyed the narrative of the drama... it made you wonder why and how each "reincarnation" was going to die
- The drama hooked you to see if Yi Jae finally learned... he appears to not be the brightest star in the sky (a german saying... don't know if it's actually translatable). But the way he acted as Ahn Ji Hyung (the police officer) was really satisfying to watch
- Him being as Ahn Ji Hyung was captivating and the drama led you to think this was going to end painless and guess what ... it didn't
- The drama made me think and reflect and what's actually important and what not. It moved something inside me. And a drama that can grab my attention, hold it and eventually leads to interesting topics and contemplation, is a 10/10 candidate... and here we are :)
- Do I personally loathe people that decide to take their own life like Death does in this series? Absoluteley not!!! But this drama felt more like a personal process and message to Yi Jae as a character who was unable to see and feel the love and devotion of his mother and girlfriend. It leads attention to those people who are left behind after losing a dear person. That's the way I interpret this drama.
- I mean it could be that we have to take into consideration that in this drama God exists... but I don't want to start a religious discussion and instead interpret the drama like I said in the point before, since that's the way I watched it
- The way everything and the characters were connected is amazing. It made the Story feel more cohesive and well-rounded
- At the end the story felt circular
- I loved the OST
- Made me think "Who am I?" and "At the end, what's actually important?"

Captivating characters and plot

I would have never thought, that I would end up loving this series. I'm glad I started it, even if I wasn't totally interested in it. This drama makes so many things right and has everything I want in a drama.

What I liked:
- The Characters. They felt real and engaging. They had their own problems and were realistic. I fell in love with them. Especially the two main leads.
- The chemistry was incredibly captivating. Before watching it I was wondering how they would handle the two age gap couples. Because sometimes it can feel a bit forced in dramas. But not in this one. The age didn't matter, no need to think about it. Lee Ha Nee and Lee Jong Won suit each other and they characters were mature and on the same wave length. It was a delight to watch them on the Screen. The fight scenes between them were full of chemistry.
- The acting was phenomenal. All actors and actresses made a great performance. Especially Lee Ha Nee and Lee Jong Won. I saw Lee Jong Won in the Golden Spoon, but that drama was lacking and I barely noticed him. But in this drama... he was outstanding. I never noticed how beautiful he is. He looked ethereal in this one. Props to the costume design. Sageuk dramas suit him. And as for Lee Ha Nee, I never saw her before which is a surprise since she's been around for some time. I loved her acting, it felt experienced and secure.
-The comedy. I am very picky about comedy. But the comedy was great in this one. The timing felt right, the editing and the actors are talented at conveying the comedic scenes.
-The romance. Oh I love a slowburn. No need for a kiss if the characters have this much chemistry. It was way more exciting this way. It just felt natural and made me want to see more.
- I was even interested in the politics and the plot was really good
-The ending was really good and fitting to the characters.

What I disliked:
-I rarely say it but... nothing. Nothing at all. I would have wished for more scenes between the main leads but on the other hand I don't, because it was great the way it was.
