It surprised me by being so good

I thought I'd just watch a bit of what looked like a raunchy drama expecting to not really like it. I was wrong, it was great. Held my attention and made me feel for all the characters. I especially enjoyed the gay couple and I don't generally look for that so good job portraying such a cute couple. I'm not sure what else is like this drama. It had sex but very little nudity. It had emotion, connection, love, honesty. It should also be mentioned that it was a tight 8 episodes so no extra side distractions or plot twists out of nowhere. It really made it so much better. Anything else out there like this? I watched it twice, well, my favorite scenes anyway.

Last half hour

I thought I had accidentally skipped an episode or something because suddenly the lead couple start bickering non stop. I kept thinking they are just doing this at work so people don't realize they are still together. Nope, no such luck. I didn't realize episode 12 was the finale, I thought it had the typical 16 episodes so I was thinking how are they going to continue this story line now. Well, good thing it did end at 12 through it should have ended at 11 1/2! Melting Me Softly had a similar ending where the characters were almost out of sync with each other. This is a rom com people! Quit taking away my rom com high at the last minute!

Just perfectly adorable

This might be my new comfort watch. The leads are likeable and there is no unnecessary drama. It's a love story. Simple. Doesn't need bells and whistles. It's got a charming cast who you end up caring about in a short 9 episode arc. I will be looking for more with Takumi Kitamura who is a hug personafied.
As the main FL is a gynecologist there are some pregnancy problem storylines which may trigger some though it is very well done.
It's currently free to watch on viki but with ads. So, unfortunately if I want a quick Takumi fix to a certain kiss scene it is hard to jump to it. Lol, only complaint

Choices were made that let me down

I'm kinda shocked at the low ratings here. I decided to post my take to help set expectations. If you are unsure to watch it or not I say watch it. The shower scene alone is worth anything else this drama throws at you. Chanwook can seriously make you swoon. Both leads were likeable and had cute banter. I wish I spoke Korean in order to catch the subtleties in the dialogue. Kilig moments for sure. I can forgive any plot holes, annoying family characters, and the many interrupted skinship moments. What I keep thinking about is the last 1/2 hour or so. What were the writers (I assume) thinking? All the yearning to be together FINALLY able to move on with their lives and they make FL a bit cold, no pun intended. She wants to go *spoiler* abroad! Seemingly with or without her soulmate. ML stayed true to her for 3 years until she was "free" and this is not how you close up an adorable love story. This is how you tick people off. Is there a happy ending, yes, could it have been sweeter, absolutely. My heart still feels bad for ML even after the show ended. And how about an end kiss sometime after the beepers are gone so we see them as a couple again. Sheesh, I could go on about this ending but I will end it here. I would love other people's takes on it. It's been days since I finished it and I'm still irritated, lol
