grass isn't always greener on the other side, or is it?
This movie is a classic example of how the grass isn't always greener on the other side; it showed us as the viewer how a dream/fantasy should sometimes stay just that, as the reality of it isn't always what you thought it would be.Going into this movie I thought I knew how it would play out, but I was pleasantly surprised that even with a simple plot that I was able to be shocked as things throughout the movie that did throw me as the viewer. Although I did enjoy the movie, I wouldn't rush to watch it again.

lack of communication between characters wasn't the worst thing going for this show
The first couple of episode of this show were really really promising and had me wanting more; however is went down hill rather quickly after that. The lack of communication between characters wasn't the worst thing going for this show, rather the lack of chemistry between the main leads. The story just went round and round in circles for what felt like an eternity to then just give an oddly unsatisfying ending. It felt rushed and sloppy; too many unnecessary 'side-plots' added to the story to then either be forgotten about to never be mentioned again. Or to be finished in a rush and sloppily finished.I don't oppose miscommunication tropes, however when over half the show is filled with them and not properly resolved it really makes me wonder what was going on while the writer was writing this.

A life changing, soul shattering must see masterpiece
Holy moly this show was life changing, soul shattering and most importantly a beautifully tragic masterpiece. The casting was spot on. As always Park Ji Hoon put his whole into his performance and delivery of Yeon Shi Eun. So much so that even in the most heartbreaking moments I could not look away, I didn't want to look away. This show will stay with me for a long time, if not forever. The way the story was written and directed, sheer brilliance. Every member of the production team of this show, deserves the world and more.When I started the show I knew the basics, but I was not truly ready for what it had in tale for me. The emotional rollercoaster speeding through the violence, the abuse, the pure bloody emotions that were ripped open for the viewers to see in all its ugly glory.

this show will definitely stay with me for a long time
For me this was such a refreshing watch, as the love story that played out was carefully portrayed and it was beautiful. I really felt every single emotion that was played out on the screen; this show will definitely stay with me for a long time.I can't remember the last time I watched a series, where I was able to understand and sympathise with both leads during times of conflict/disagreements. It was like a breath of fresh air, I particularly loved how natural the storyline and the love between the characters played out on my screen. I will genuinely miss tuning into this each week.
