I thoroughly enjoyed this drama, as it perfectly encapsulated the autumnal mood. The narrative carried subtle notes of melancholy. Although the characters' behavior occasionally seemed entirely incomprehensible, throughout the entire series one senses an inexplicable depth of thought embedded within every dialogue, every pause, the camera angles, and the carefully selected wide shots. I perceived this drama precisely in this manner: while the premise may feel somewhat conventional, the emotions and sentiments invested in the work, particularly the outstanding acting performances - elevated this story into something truly unconventional!

This is a heavy and slow-paced drama, which may render it unsuitable for certain viewers.

Kim So-hyun once again managed to astonish with her performance, portraying a uniquely compelling character. Initially, Yu-Jin was difficult to comprehend; she appeared remarkably composed yet acted on impulse, creating a contradictory impression. Gradually, however, as one delves into her psychological nuances, she ceases to appear eccentric. Furthermore, her crying scenes deeply pierced the soul - she portrays sorrow with profound anguish.

As for Choo Young-woo, I’m once again convinced of his remarkable versatility as an actor! Although his character, Min-jae, is a complex individual whose actions were at times exasperating, Young-woo portrayed him brilliantly. Moreover, his smile captivated not only Yu-Jin .

The drama possessed only a single drawback: insufficient screen time dedicated to the primary protagonists. At a certain point, the narrative began to excessively feature Kim Sae-jin, who persistently clung to Min-jae and disrupted the couple with his superfluous presence. The rationale behind these scenes and the disproportionate attention given to them remains unclear. It would have been far preferable to elaborate on their separation and the events leading up to Yu-Jin and Min-jae's wedding preparations. In short, I felt a distinct shortage of scenes depicting the relationship between the main leads.

Although the final form of the drama differed from my initial expectations, I can’t claim to be disappointed. I appreciated the overall production and will certainly add this drama to my fav list. Furthermore, the resolution is gratifying, which is undoubtedly a welcome outcome!
