Forgiveness takes precedence over revenge . Good happy sad balance
The way the story started failed to entice me. I really didn't find episodes 1 & 2 very interesting.
1) Romance happened too quickly
2) toilet emergency/intestinal distress isn't comedy to me
But I started to warm up to the leads in episode 3. What really what cemented my interest was that both leads have really really engaging smiles that light up thier faces & bounce off everything around them. This is one of the few dramas I've seen where forgiveness takes precedence over revenge in the storyline. The inexplicable grace of the lead characters to those who deserve nothing, & the theme of hope against hope lightens up the heavy serious plot line of the entropy of dementia .I can't say that I was 100% sold on the romance, but the leads kisses were definitely convincing .I didn't rate this higher because it puts the viewer "through the wringer" for a few episodes near the end AND for inserting a YEAR long time skip before the relationship resolution (happy ending). That said, overall, this series did a great job of juggling the happy & the sad moments, making it more sweet than bitter. There were some plot holes, but those were overshadowed by it being overwhelmingly enjoyable & entertaining.
