exquisite storytelling with a masterpiece Ost

the story is narrated beautifully and captures the characters progression clearly through the episodes.
even if you feel that the story is a common fable, I ensure that it isn't.
the story, the characters, the twists and the plot only seem to get better throughout the story.
I this is a thriller of its own kind.
it shows grief, aching, longing, sorrow
the cliff hangers very not bearable for me because I was very enraptured by the story.
the actors did an amazing job portraying their roles.
the entire Dear HONGRANG team deserves huge credit for bringing forth such a masterpiece.

heartwarming love story in a foreign country with a touch of realism

I found the storyline to be very intriguing and I was very surprised by the cast line up. I think this is the first K-drama that i have watched with a Japanese actor and I was looking forward to it very much. Neither the cast nor the story line were disappointing. I was in a daze from the beginning till the end.
the story seemed to flow well from each episode, and I really liked the way they distinguished the past from the present, the storytelling of the past and the present at the beginning and at the end of each episode. They showed the love of the youth and also the struggles they had to face. it also highlighted the beauty of Japan (this drama really made me want to visit Japan during the cherry blossom season and spring season).
The cast did a splendid job of portraying all the emotions and made me experience them too. I could relate to her frustrations when she screamed at him in episode 5 and in the episode where she had to make her feelings towards marriage and her feeling clear to Min Jun was a masterpiece. it was done with so much soul. I still cry whenever I think of that scene. and when he said that the words I like you could hurt so much.
overall, it was well portrayed drama with beautiful cinematography and amazing cast.
