Watching a 2nd time
I am currently in episode 8 of watching this drama a second time. Here are my reasons:
I had no idea who any of the actors were the first time I watched this drama. Since then I have become a fan of Sung Hoon in CEO roles and wanted to re-watch him in a role where he was basically support. I loved HENRY's character and when I found out about his singing and violin talent I became a huge fan. I feel the leads did a good job portraying their characters and liked ML's teasing of FL regarding potential kissable moments.
As someone who has seen domestic violence in a family situation I appreciated that this subject was touched on.
When I was in my twenties I weighed 127 pounds (57.6kg) and now thanks to menopause I weigh 240 lbs (108.9kg) I had a well proportioned figure due to my height and good genes. I can identify with the FL. Inside you know you are still you, but have that nagging feeling of not being quite who you were. Both the first time and this time while watching this drama I was touched by the following comment: "Is your body only single use? Are you going to use it only one day and throw it away?" I really think I need to put this on my refrigerator and take it with me when I go shopping.
From the very beginning I fell in love with the theme song, Beautiful Lady. But then before retirement I made my living as a mobile DJ so I either love or dislike music immediately. Overall I thought the music and sound production in this drama paired well with the appropriate scenes
Someone made a comment about the FL gaining so much weight in the final (to avoid spoiler I won't say why). However, I know many people who have done this and then been able to return to their weight prior to the incident. It was not unrealistic.
Some things I didn't like:
The second leads were okay but nothing to write home about. Didn't care for the stalker female at all. I intensely dislike childish characters and her behavior was so inappropriate. I have not seen the primary leads in any other work and won't go out of my way to watch something just because they are in it. However I am happy for Shin Min Ah that she and Kim Woo Bin have been able to have a loving and stable relationship in a world full of toxic netizens.
Overall:
I would definitely recommend this as a must watch at least one time.
