One of those dramas that is so good it makes me want to rewatch over and over again...
10+ overall for:
- the characters: relating to and development/arc! - all the characters were done well, and I especially appreciated how both the FL and ML are given the room to grow and space to show their respective qualities in a balanced way
- acting (gahh the chemistry and authenticity of the leads and all the supporting cast are INSANE (they're SO ride or die for each other): the FL actress was not one of those that I immediately fell in love with but I grew to enjoyed watching her performance and I really think she did wonderfully as the FL. I enjoy growing to relate to her and seeing her as a quiet introvert in love and pursuing her passions in life and work, etc. Which I think makes it just that much more stronger as a drama.
- pacing (not a dull moment - well edited and presented - I love the visuals of various seasons as well as the comfy sweaters as well as the coats)
- plot (these parallels! always laser focused and never relents! - this drama covers a good span of time, as well), feat. some of my favorite twists of tropes thanks to how perfectly the lead characters compliment each other and also instigate each other's growth, great for those who also love seeing redemption arcs and healing and second chances ;)
- the ost - the MUSIC - yup. def. solidified my love for Chen Xue Ran's music compositions. Also the songs that he didn't compose but from the artists are simply fantastic and varied for a modern cdrama - impressed! The title song The King and The Knight will certainly end up being one of my most replayed ost songs xD but I've been listening to the entire ost on repeat~
- overall a beautiful story with beautiful humans for characters. I don't think I've ever so thoroughly enjoyed a modern "romcom" drama to the very end (but I feel that tag doesn't do this drama justice at all since it's more like a coming of age in some aspects than romcom, oh well, just suffice to say that this feat. a lot of solid storytelling and characters, and it has its share of pain and angst along with all the fluffy yet utterly realistic moments).
The ending is perfect as well. I feel COMPLETED. #themostbeautifulmomentsinlife :)
One of those dramas that is so good it makes me want to rewatch over and over again... all around a beautiful journey.
