Oddly balanced romantic drama that won me over against my will
The drama starts with a suicide & it was so shocking that I almost quit at the first episode. The whole series revolves around who they were & why they committed suicide. Every character that was connected to that person had secrets & a piece of the puzzle, but none of them knew the whole picture. Still, the beginning was horrifying, tragic & a strange juxtaposition to the humorous & romantic parts that followed.
Despite all that, this series won me over [against my will!]. And I don't say that lightly as there was a good bit that I didn't like , so the drama had to be overall good enough to make me over come, not only the somber & startling beginning , but:
1) The fact that I was not overly fond of the female lead. Yet, by the end I had accepted her & saw that her peculiar charms were necessary in order to be able to handle the plot.
2) Some of the other characters were selfish & very flawed.
3) The story didn't address the male lead's character's issues 100% , so you have to over look some of the holes that should have been filled in regarding him.
In the end; sub plots are resolved & there's a happy ending
in conclusion : This was an oddly balanced romantic drama, done well enough that I was surprised at how much I liked it
The OST could have used 1 or 2 more songs to cycle through as the ones presented were good but got on my nerves by the end due to over use.
