An artistic, sometimes poetic, atmospheric, mysterious -even eerie- depiction of the consequences of loneliness and social alienation, that can even lead to a distorted or alternative reality. It sure has its weak points, especially the abrupt, without a proper closure ending, but overal an interesting mystery attempt.
The movie was not as good as I expected, even though the cast and the story seemed very promising... nonetheless it was quite entertaining (especially the second half). The scenery was captivating, the music very well-fitted and Sato Takeru was a pleasure for my eyes!
It definitely is an old-school kdrama with a rich girl - poor guy kind of a fairytale plot, rather simple and predictable, but also nostalgic and quite enjoyable. And I have to say that young Choi Ji Woo is so beautiful!
If the first 5-6 episodes aren't taken into account, it is a very realistic, touching, heartwarming and heart-wrenching story of family and friends coping with Alzheimer's disease. The acting from the whole cast was great, but Kam Woo Sung in particular was superb!
I was very hesitant to watch this lakorn, since the 'slap-n-kiss' tag is a real turn-off for me, but after the high praise in the feeds, I decided to give it a try... It's not without problems (slap-n-kiss, over-the-top verbal and physical violence, unrealistic situations), but I kept on watching mainly because of Thanapob: he delivered his character perfectly - cute, sarcastic, playful, angry, desperate- he sold me on everything! Special kudos to the supporting actors playing Mam and Bak - they were scene-stealers.
That's how a psychological thriller should be!
Can't wait to find more about all these weird people...

Dark, fast-paced, well-balanced, intriguing, thought-provoking...
Palm d'Or was definitely well-deserved
Choi Soo In was amazing!
Both MLs were excellent in their roles, as well as Yoshida Kotaro as one of the worst bosses on screen!
