Love in its purest form

It was soft and raw and I cried for the first three episodes straight. I was in pain for him. If you like watching characters slowly but deeply for each other, this is the one for you.

LOVES:
- It's just a cinematic marvel, at least the first few episodes.
- watching this feels like a fresh cup of coffee in the morning. Cozy, sweet, but a bit bitter yet satisfying and just what you needed.
- I loved that it felt like I couldn't skip a second of it. It was true storytelling in a fresh new way I haven't seen done before.
- it's the kind of healing slow burn I love. It reminds me of "When the weather is nice", but with a higher budget and even more cinematic scenes
- the fashion and OST are just chef's kiss
- this is the kind of drama 그 남자의 기억법 or find me in your memory wished it could have been
- they didn't play games when it came to the love confessions. I loved how straightforward everything was, and you never had to guess where they stood.
- how devoted he became to her. Her devotion to him was there, but he was unexpected.
- how they made the love interest that would have been the love triangle trope a good person instead of someone you hate. That's what I was expecting, and then I ended up liking her and getting sad for her.
- there was no unnecessary break up for stupid reasons. The reasons kind of made sense and it wasn't long and drawn out.

DISLIKE:
- How long they lingered on the second love interest that was long gone. I mean, for someone she just met, I felt she went overboard, and they didn't have enough time together for her to be acting the way she did.
- Their first kiss was long lingered on for longer. Considering how long we waited, I wished it would have been slower and more emotionally charged. That's the kind of couple they were to me. That's why it wasn't a 10 for me. When it came to skinship, they did great, but the big stuff, like first hugs and kisses, was not slowed down and focused on as being a significant moment. It was just natural and quick for them, which I got, but it wasn't enough for me.

Overall this is one of the best things I've watched this year. It's new and slow and healing and the actors were just a dream. There was no bloat when it came to side characters or supporting stories that would distract from the main love story. Everything came together for the good of the two main love interests and I loved it.
