A story without ending?
Well, sort of.
This is obviously about real people and real-life problems, so you won't see any fantasy or typical romcom chlishes. The acting and the cinematography were great. The story was well-written overall.
My problem with the drama is that they didn't finish it properly. I'm talking about the typical happy ending of romcoms, but I wanted to see some resolution about the oldest sister's life. The main couple and the youngest sister were handled okay, but I wanted to see that piece of trash guy suffer more. I felt they missed out on that one because she wasn't the main lead. Honestly, if a writer wants to include stories like that in their drama, they should do something with it.
I know I'm not Korean, but it was irritating to watch that people would rather force their children or themselves to be with someone because others might say bad things about them. I really hate watching dramas where single parents are treated like the plague. It's not really a problem with the story I just hate this way of thinking, and I know in Korea many people still live like this.
The male characters (except Jiho and his friends) were... I don't even know what to say. I get that Jeongin's ex is crazy and obsessed, and Seoin's husband deserves the worst, but how their father can be like that is crazy to me. I'm kind of glad we never saw him meet with Jiho.
The OST overall was good, but it was repetitive, and sometimes I had to skip the scenes because nothing happened they just used the same music over and over again.
Jimin and Haein were great together, but the writer focused too much on the drama, we could've had a bit more feelgood vibe show. To be fair, that wasn't the point of the show.
Overall it's a good show, but not perfect, and it's not for everyone for sure, because it's slow-paced and too realistic.
