The leads were very good, and the dorama itself had its good (heck, even very good!) moments; unfortunately, that was partly ruined by the many obvious, repetitive, forced or plainly silly scenes whose only "raison d'etre" seemed to be to stretch into 12 episodes what could have been much better developed in half the episodes or maybe even in a tv movie. Ironically enough, for a drama which focused so much on missed opportunities, that's exactly what it ended up being, imho: a missed opportunity.

My 1st ever Jdorama

This drama was nostalgic to me because it was the 1st ever Jdorama i watched and spun my interest into Jdorama world before Kdrama took over. Till today i am not really sure why i like this drama perhaps i find this couple really relatable in a way they were not perfect lovers to start with and the dilemma that the FL faced is also what ladies face when it comes to choices of love. At times we made wrong choices either because we love too deeply or too afraid to say no or we take things for granted.Now thinking back the very stark difference between J & K drama is J drama is much more realistic n often the romance drama touches on other societal themes while K drama is fairytale like undying sweet love and perhaps that explains why kdrama remains popular as most still like fairytale stories
