Love doesn’t always = happiness but it does = eternal peace.

I first dropped it after reading how it ended,but if you come back to it with a open mind and understanding like with Doona it’s basically the same in a way,the ML lead and FL in this drama really did love each other to the end of the earth,I will first say that the FL definitely fell for the ML first from the moment she met him and she was the first to confess her love and in the first EP she says let’s stay together forever,and the part that makes a lot of us dropped it is when the FL becomes so distant and starts for some reason being more comfortable with the SML and they form a bond for some reason and the k drama doesn’t show it but In episode 3 you can tell that he had a huge impact on them breaking up he was like pushing her away from him and that scene where they first break up she in the same dorm witj that guy,the ML was busy taking care of his family but he still showed up for her constantly and to have her betray him like that hurt him and is viewers,I get that her family life was rough with her mom leaving and her dads issues,but don’t take it out on the only person who was there for you,your first love,first person to show you stability,and then the whole middle half From ep 7 to 10 was just poorly written and both ML,FL needed to let it all out before the airport scene,either way I did enjoy it after watching with a different perspective and approach I highly recommend going back and paying attention to the small details and misses scene in the future,I truly believe the ML and FL never stoped being in love but they were both to scared to say what they wanted and miss communication really drew this drama back,but in the end that ending I believe she went to Hawaii but came back after that year and went back to her dads house where she found the ML waiting,Why ? because I think she finally leanrned that he this whole time was her actual home and he learned that his love for her was not in vain and that he didn’t know that to love her was to let her find herself and forgive herself and he also needed to let go the past her and learn to forgive her and himself either way I do enjoy this drama after the second watch,what I take away from this is that Love is strong but it can’t always win,but being someone’s Heart and Home means you must be willing to let them hurt you really bad not because they did it on purpose but because they themselves are so broken and are terrified,and the Home part means they both found pain,happiness,hate,guilt,selfishness,fear and family all in there homes they built in each others heart.
