From the writer of When the Camellia Blooms and director of many series, I watched and enjoyed + Park Bogum with IU. There's no reason for me not to watch this one.
As they say,'Never trust the ratings'. It's my 4th time watching this and it's still enjoyable. I hope to see more adult romance--mature characters + nuanced theme. I really like the 90s setting.
I can't believe I left it on my plan to watch list for too long. I like the FL, not the typical perfect woman---who has never dated anyone or a naive one. So what if she dated a lot of men? This is happening in real life, and it's not like she is a mistress or dating a married man. She has a strong sense of justice.
I just finished Kill me, Love me and, since this drama's on my plan to watch list and have seen that it's completed, I give it a try. I must say that this sad ending is really sad, and as in super sad. In KMLM, even though the FL died, I found the ending bittersweet. Bitter yet sweet, sad but somehow satisfying because they bid farewell to each other, cherish those little time they have. The FL died, the ML never re-married, never had his harem.
In here, SNTL, after they separated in episode 24, they never see each other again-never even had a chance to confess their feelings.
I've had my fair share of dramas with sad endings and, honestly, I never had a problem with that. Sad endings are even a trend before and likely will not come to end very soon. But with this ending-the missed encounter, -them missing each other, -them always prioritizing others instead of themselves, them being burdened by their past and their responsibilities, I honestly and fervently wished for a happy ending-even a 5-second happy ending like in Ancient Love Poetry would be nice. But, sadly, alas! Until the very last moment, they also torment the viewers. I kept on murmuring 'look back, look back' and when he did look back I even shouted 'run after them!'
How I wish they would give her a different death, like dying in his arms or dying after ther drinking session-after which they both profess their love for each other. At least the writers should just let them say farewell to each other.
I felt a lingering sorrow after watching this. Ziye and Mr.Seven's love story is almost a love story. If given a chance, it would surely be a beautiful one. (sigh)
Nice watch.
I really like the 90s setting.
I love the ML.
Nice watch.

She is in a dream, she didn't went back in time.
