A drama to watch if you don't want to binge...

This is a great drama to watch if you're looking for something about investigation, mystery, and discovery. However, there isn't much romance between the lead couple until the last few episodes.

I feel like the producers or creators tried so hard to make it a drama that's not all about romance to the point that I felt like there was little to no romance. Don't get me wrong. Warm on a Cold Night has a fantastic ending for the lead couple, but I just wished I could have gotten the chance to see more moments with them.

Also, I wanted a better explanation of the villain's story and a better ending. Why was he so kind to his "brother"? Although, he mentioned that he didn't know why he acted kindly to him. I hope they gave the villain more character by giving him more flashbacks on how he developed his affection for his "brother." I was also upset with how his side of the story ended. He'd live the rest of his life alone, while all this while, he was living in a different world with strangers to create a brighter future for his clanmates (albeit in a not-so-good way). I feel like he was a misunderstood villain.

There were times when I felt like the drama was dragging. Unlike other dramas I used to watch, I didn't have to force myself away from the screen. In fact, I needed the breaks I took because, like I previously said, there were times when the drama felt too dragging. On a different note, the drama has a good plot with many surprises that would really make you ponder and think. However, I feel like they tried to keep the suspense on some parts for too long to the point wherein I kinda lost interest and enthusiasm to uncover.

Acting-wise: it's the typical jealous, shocked, confused, and kilig expressions. Only a little breakthrough for both actor and actress, considering that I've been following them for a few dramas now. Although, I'm not sure if I'm the right person to speak about this, especially since I had high expectations of the drama.

All in all: light drama, good lighting (and no whitening filter on the actors and actresses!!!), and a good plot.
