I'm so upset that it's titled, "Secret Love Affair" rather than something more... poetic? Because that's what I feel this drama was.

The on screen chemistry of the main couple really shone, despite... or... maybe because of their age gap and maturity levels. I don't usually root for story lines like this, because cheating and affairs and the like are usually a tired trope and not done well, and I usually end off feeling really bad and guilty for the third party.

But... I think it's safe to say that this particular instance was anything but an affair, really, considering the relationship and the dynamic that was going on for miss Oh Hye Won. Her acting is so damn good, and at times, despite her rashness and her greed at some points, I felt like I was rooting for her, I wanted her so badly to be free and to love and be just... happy.

The music, the cinematography, the love/chemistry, and the acting were just top notch in this. I really, really enjoyed it.
