Doing your best on your worst
Its suffused with the kind of realism most drama watchers loathe and in a way that's it's best attribute. Aggravating and slow, there's a kind of fondness i have built for these characters over the past few weeks and its bittersweet ending is made to be just that; bittersweet. I could go on about how beautiful it is from a technical standpoint too since it compliments every scene and mood for that scene. The golden autumnal sunlight in the first few episodes were magic. It makes up for the perfect storm for something I would consider incredible art. Certainly do watch this at your own doom. I came to it with an understanding of being someone who has once experienced such a thing. If just like me you also have suffered perils of low commitment high maintenance situationships/relationships then yay watch it. It at least gives you the guidance to not betray your memories. I was enamored in particular to subtle quiet love each person gave the other. There's so much tenderness amidst the hurt and I think that's what made this incredibly life like and incredibly approachable to me. The actors did a phenomenal job bringing such a thing to the screen and in such a real manner as well. I often feel bogged down by the artificiality and contrived nature of dramas as of late. So this was a breath of fresh air.
