Left Me Blushing and Kicking My Feet Like a Schoolgirl

I smiled the entirety of this episode and found myself blushing as I haven't in years. What a wonderful episode! A well-deserved round of applause to everyone involved. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

A Beautiful Sledgehammer to the Heart

What a series! Everything about this series was A+. Exceptional acting, directing, cinematography, screenplay, wardrobe and score. They didn't try to wrangle a contrived ending out of what were intensely complex relationships. Life doesn't always work out the way we desire. There are some who are brave of heart and those who are cowardly and when they meet on the battlefield of love, rarely do we end up with a warm and cushy resolution. I loved the entire series!

First Episode Got Me Onboard Immediately

I was pleasantly surprised by this series' quality-- wonderful acting, cinematography, directing and writing. I've happily boarded the ship. Let's go!

Ouch....

The actors did such a beautiful job in this episode, which was a roller-coaster of emotions. Unexpressed emotions can lead to so much misunderstanding. It's easy to say that it's contrived for dramatic purposes, but humans do tend to behave in this manner to avoid rejection.

The Agony of Miscommunication

The Agony of Miscommunication could have been the title of this episode. Yes, it's often an overused trope in dramas, but this is also something that occurs often in real life, as we humans tend to guard our vulnerable hearts fiercely to avoid heartache, which often leads to avoidable heartbreak.

A Gentle Yet Powerful Love

So many miscommunications are caused by fear of rejection or inability to recognize/accept one's own deep need for loving connection. Love doesn't need to be a raging storm that tosses us to and fro. It can be as gentle as a summer breeze and, often, it is gentle love that heals us. That is what this entire series represented to me.

An Acting Clinic! 🤩

The actors in this drama continued to astonish. Mam Kathaleeya McIntosh, who portrayed Sasiwimol , Wang's mother, had my jaw on the floor. Her acting was out of this world. She understood the character's selfish motivations so deeply, that I couldn't hate her for her behavior, even though in many ways I wanted to shake her. Life can sometimes be one big tangled web of complexities and this drama is plowing right into the heart of those tangles. I continue to be beyond impressed with this drama!

Holy Moly!

This episode almost killed me. It had me by the throat from beginning to end. I could feel my heart thumping and growing heavier as the episode progressed. My lord, those actors are doing an incredible job.

Beautifu development

Beginning to see the issue here.... one being drawn to the other due to missing someone they loved deeply and lost. It's a love based on replacement, which can lead to disillusionment and pain. Life's complicated, y'all....

Continues to Amaze

I was not expecting this series to be as well done as it has continued to be. every episode has been an taut tapestry of emotions. I read a lot of reviews of those who detest the mother character, but I am really appreciating her, because I can see that she's modeled after Elizabeth Taylor's character in WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF and the actress portraying the mother is doing a stellar job of bringing the emotional rollercoaster of an alcoholic artist to life.

Woah!

This is so cinematic. An unexpected gem. I was not expecting this level of quality-- wonderful acting from all actors, beautiful cinematography, artistic direction and truly lovely score. I am locked in.
