The feeling of love not just through romance, but through friends, family, and your hometown.
This drama has made me go through so many emotions whilst watching it, and I think it conveys the lots of different types of love that people seem to forget that exists within the world today, myself included. The portrayal of Samdal going back to her hometown to reconnect with her family and ultimately Cho Yong-pil I think was executed very well, ultimately showing that sometimes love simply doesn't fade that easily, no matter how much we want it to. I really like how they made it so Yong-Pil never backed down, and just went face first into everything he did, but still showed so much emotion through his actions and beliefs. Both Shin Hye Sun and Ji Changwook are extremely good actors, and I could really feel them learning through their emotions in real time whilst watching.
THE BIGGEST THING I ENJOYED ABOUT THIS DRAMA IS THE FAMILY. Yong-pil's dad portray anguish so well, and it really hit home when he finally forgave Mi-ja for her actions 30 years ago. The parent's played such an important role into the story line, and they depicted it so perfectly, with Mi-ja being stoic about her punishment until something more important took over and Yong-pil's Dad just being unforgiving until the thought of their kids really put me through the feels.
On the more sad note, I feel for Bu Sang-Do. I do really like that they never made him a villian, for he became so much more relatable that sometimes it just isn't meant to be. I love how as the drama went on, the focus of the drama became Samdal discovering herself once again rather than her focusing on fixing her career, and just the wave of emotion that came through all the characters whilst watching this drama is the biggest reason why I'm giving this a 10/10. This is my version of a drama to get you into your emotions, and I think the ability to let your own pent-up emotions while watching is why I enjoyed it so much.
I suggest everyone give this one a try, it's truly one that touches the heart.
