A different kind of love story
... and I say this because its not about romantic love, but a love between soulmate friends.
Overall I kinda felt tricked. lol
But that's because at the beginning I felt like this would be a feel good series,
but it made me cry in the end.
Anyways, I`m writing this review because I really don't understand the other bad reviews here.
This is a must watch if you are a fan of bittersweet story lines.
**Directing**
Overall I really liked the directing, because it has that special vibe throughout the whole series.
Which not all directors are able to do tbh. It really pulls you in. Like I said, the vibe and mood was
the main reason for me to like this series and is often overlooked from other ppl and in reviews in general.
But if a series pulls me in just with the mood, I know its gonna be good, but a lot of ppl usually don't appreciate it sadly.
**Music**
Music fits really well and supports the mood I mentioned above. Nothing noteworthy from my side, which is actually a good thing.... otherwise it would be bad music. >.<
**Acting**
I was really surprised tbh, because you see so many different nationalities but they made it work perfectly. All actors were great, no overacting, just a great fit. Also, its my first drama with Taec Yeon (I think) and I was positively surprised by his good acting. Isomura Hayato was great too and he took a great part to portray & support the mood too.
**Story**
The story follows 2 young man that are stuck in their life and also experienced some kind of trauma I might say. They first meet in Berlin after an accident and somehow grow closer. I really like how their meeting changed both of their life and also made it possible to overcome their trauma. It really shows what it means to have a soulmate and what kind of support it could be in your life without being romanticized. Both characters experience bad things in life, but also are able to overcome those things. Its really great to see, thats why it sometimes feels like a feel good series. In the end it just shows life and life isnt always an easy walk. I say its a good story, not because it is. Its a slice of life, so I would not call it special itself, but the directing, acting, etc made it into one.
**Overall**
If a series is able to pull me in and make me cry with emotional scenes (and I dont cry easily even when its emotional) I rate it as a good drama. Simple as that. Because not many directors are able to make me cry. In the end its all about the acting and directing that make ppl cry, not the story. So, my rating is a 9.5 for that reason (and I didnt skip lol).
