Meaningful, Organised, Entertaining.

Absolutely loved Lee Do Hyun's acting. The young cast is so good-looking and fun to watch. Great, consistent delivery of message - being grateful for decisions/people, the importance of relationships, finding happiness, regret... Although each episode ending doesn't have such a big cliffhanger (compared to other dramas), every episode was really important for the storyline so it was really painful waiting a week for every 2 episodes. I'd reckon it'd be a great drama to binge-watch. I honestly didn't expect every episode to be so good since it was just a remake of an hour-long Western movie. The staff team elaborated on the main couple's story more (and other characters) which made the story more meaningful and structured - not rushed nor draggy. Also, beautiful OSTs and cinematography (loved the little details at the back!)

P.S Had a strong second lead syndrome with Hwang In Yeob. He is so attractive, I would definitely want to see more roles from him! Also the weeb/s AHAH. Deok Jin is such a humorous character. Some of his scenes are super dramatic and unrealistic (same as turning 18 again). I honestly did consider whether they were necessary but then again, they were definitely really entertaining to watch! The same goes for his love story!!

“If you think of it as a regret, that’s the end of it. But when you think of it as a lesson learned, it brings a new beginning”
