Salander

I finished all the three seasons and this is my final thought about season 1.

[SPOILERS]
It makes a lot more sense when you have finished everything. But even by its own, it's a great season.
We start here, with Yumi being single after some years, because of a relationship in her 20s that ended badly.
I think this season is amazing because we see how Yumi growths, how she learns that even if she loves Goo Woong, she is the true protagonist of her story. She learns how to put herself as a priority and I think that's beautiful.

Goo Wong is a good man, dealing with his own things, and (I'm going to put more about him in my review of season 3) it's not like he is not good for Yumi, or Yumi for him, it's just that they are at the wrong time and the way this drama is written shows you that that's ok. It's ok to love someone but if the time and the conditions don't feel right, it's ok to let it go. That doesn't invalidate the things you felt for that person, or that you fight the best you could for them, it's just that you prioritized yourself and that is also important.

This story is so important for so many things, it's painful but is simple and beautiful.

Kim Go-eun and Ahn Bo Hyun are amazing actors, the cast fits so well with the story.

I really can't recommend enough this.
