Refreshingly Different
A drama that has a ton of romance, a bit of a red flag sweetheart of a ML(which is what I like to see in a ML), lots of lovely kissing and skinship, suspense, lots of action, a mystery that is no obvious until most of the drama is done, a comic book villain, fantastic OST, bromance, friendship and cool technical stuff. The FL was amazing and played both FL's very believably and the second leads were adorable.The acting, directing, locations were super nice and the story was well written and interested, although there were some holes here and there and some episodes were not 100% seamless. But the director would have had to add on a couple of more episodes to made it with no holes. Since I start to get impatient past 16 episode dramas, I am more than happy just as it is and it got a solid 9 1/2 stars from me. Totally recommended!

Pride and Prejudice vibes
This drama has been a joy to watch. The character development, even for the smallest parts, was wonderful; the music and little sound effects were perfect; and the locations were so glorious that I just want to go backpacking and find Merien’s Homestay. Wonderful, supportive FL family and so funny! Super slow burn romance, fabulous acting, a story about self worth, with serious Pride and Prejudice feel to it. Definitely rewatchable and recommended.Was this review helpful to you?
A new type of drama for me
This is my first drama of this type and I found it to be full of misunderstandings, a roller coaster of getting together and breaking up, lots of red-flag scenes, intensive emotional and physically passionate moments, and contained many of the same tropes found in dramas between the opposite sex.The story was fairly melodramatic, spanned ten or more years and contained stressful family dynamics and negative social stereotypes around homosexuality. There were lots of sweet touching moments and an intense emotional connection between the two leads and my required happy ending. Honestly, this type of drama is not one I would normally watch, but I am glad I gave it a chance. Recommended and re-watchable.
