Most Fascinating Romance

It has not even been 20 minutes that I finished watching this series. It was absolutely amazing and emotional for the first 8 episodes. For all my life, I have mostly watched horror, psychological thriller, and suspense genre and romance/drama is usually never on my list at all. However, I stumbled upon this series and I am glad that I did.

The story kicks off with captivating build-up and spectacular acting of the characters. The story up to 8 episodes seems to develop organically making the audience anticipating for more. Till the 8th episode, the audience (at least I) could clearly discern what comes next; I wanted the series to have the most predictable ending because that was where my heart lied, what my heart hoped.

But I was disappointing myself. I wonder how the story writers could conjure up, in the last 4 episodes, a plot with such massive divorce from the show's inception. I was continuously asking myself, "Where is this story going?" To say the least, the latter bit of the series is anti-climactic, overkill, and redundant.

This show could have had the most predictable end and still the audience would have been jubilant, emotional, and satisfied but the story writers said "screw that!" and here we are.

The story (up to the 8th episode), the music, the atmosphere, the acting are some of the best I have ever seen in a Japanese drama. 9.5/10 recommended.

Also, feel free to create your own ending because you will definitely want to do that.
