I watched this back during covid after needing a show to watch during the lockdown and come out of it with a big smile. This is a very warm drama with a good story that I'll admit got me a bit bored towards the backend of it but was still throughably enjoyable to watch.

I wasn't that big a fan of the love triangle but I do think that Dal Mi and Do San were the best option to be together because of how they could relate to one another and although she found a deep friendship with Ji Pyung it felt more of a platonic friendship between them. Dal Mi never really showed a love interest in him despite the reveal of he was who she was really talking to. Do San loved her from the beginning without even knowing a single thing about her other than the letters and did what he could with her best interests at mind even with some lies involved. He never had an intention of completely fooling her with who he really was but with everything getting caught up in another lie it was sometimes hard to tell the truth but through his actions toward Dal Mi and her grandmother his good intentions were easily seeable as good.

I wish we got to see a bit more at the end of the drama with how they built up their company they showed at the end to it's big success from small start-up office because we didn't see much really happen in that office and the self-driving company and even a bit of the wedding would of been fun but so and so.. Also, I really enjoyed Dal Mi's mom and grandmother's relationship after they got together again. They didn't show a whole lot of it but it was super nice.

This is a good drama to sit down and watch with good acting and great OST, bit disappointed how people didn't end up liking it too much because they didn't think Dal Mi ended with the right person. I think people got hit super hard with second-lead syndrome.
