Story

"A realistic, cheerful story about “twilight youths” and the young people who befriend them."

That's what the synopsis of this drama says. And I want to point out the word "realistic".
Cause that's what the story is about. This drama doesn't have Kdrama-Cliches, or trophes or anything that would just be in a Kdrama. This isn't a story about a revenge, or about 2 people that meet through fate or something noo. The story of this drama is life. I'm sure everyone that watched this, kinda remembered their own parents of great parents. Because these people they just go through things that everyone had to go through or will go through.

But the way these normal people, with normal lifes, and normal problems are shown us by the writer and the director was just soo beautyful. I cried a lot watching this, but there were also times where I laughed out loud.

Acting/Casting

First I have to say, the Casting was just perfect. It couldn't have been better. So lets move to the Acting.
TBH, I am not the person who is able the rate the acting of the elder Cast, they are just beyond good, or great.
So all I can say is about the acting of the Younger one's.
Go Hyun Jung: I loved watching her, I loved her acting, I loved her style and how she was soo beautiful with no make-up. It was amazing how she changed from being an independent, adult woman, to a daughter who listens to her mum, even if they fight all the time.
Jo In Sung: He was the reason why I started this drama, and I love him for this. I know, there is written that he is just making a Guest appereance, but just let me say, I enjoyed him every episode, even if it was just for 2-3 minutes.
Lee Kwang Soo: My betrayal Icon, Giraffe and Prince of Asia was just as amazing as the rest of the cast. I could really see that his Acting improved, maybe it was the impact of all these great actors/actresses, but I was soo proud when I saw that he was soo good.


Music
The OSTs are just as perfect as the rest of the drama. There are songs that really cheers you up, and wants to make you dance, but there are also OSTs that make you bawl like a little baby.

Rewatch Value:
Of course I'm gonna rewatch this great drama, with a great story and perfect actors/actresses. The question is, how often will I rewatch it???

Overall Review:

As you can see from my ratings, this drama was just perfect. Before I started to watch this, I had zero expectations. I didn't even considered to watch this at first. But after the first 6 episodes aired, I saw some gif's from Jo In Sung, and I really got curious about his story, and eventhough I knew he was just a guest appearance, I just wanted to see him. But in the end, I fell in love with everything about this drama. I don't know if I ever will be able to watch a drama that is as great a this one.
