A beautiful story intertwined by multi-generation of pains

I barely give-out perfect scores but this show just truly hits everything right. From the ensemble of cast, the warm independent stories that connected the residents with one another, the cinematography showcasing unseen beauty of Jeju and the entire conveyance of the importance of happiness was great.

The show manifest how we should see our lives—objectively and with happiness. Honestly, I was able to relate to each of them somehow as they poised real issues that is going on in our society in general (not just in Korea, but the world). All of the emotions I felt while watching was raw. For me, it felt like it was made to give me feelings and to long for that warmth.

I initially thought that this drama will bore me. until I realized that I’ve become engrossed with their lives and seemed to be a resident of Pureung. I wish there was more episodes as I think it could resonate even further on some of their relationships but it needed to end on a certain high and so I am glad.

Excited to visit my parents this weekend!

I honestly believe that the show had extreme potential. It started so well and got me hooked but as weeks gone by I wonder what has gone wrong? I am by no means a Thai guy in which I assumed that the story was explicitly based on the internet novel; but even so I thought that its quite a mess.

You can clearly see that the production team is encountering issues and its evident while watching it.

Storyline is a blur, even the actors are in a blur. It lacked appeal along the way. It hurts that I didn't like it when I really want to like the show. I just can't.

The story is great. It is really an eye-opening piece that reflects what other gay people experiences growing up in countries where LGBT representation is not yet fully established. I like how the characters progressed and how their respective pasts were presented and it intertwined with the current events. Its a bitter-sweet movie if you'd like to ask me. While I have nothing to complain on how great the story and the actors is I just wish that more Korean Gay movies would have a happy ending, why? Because:
- LGBT people to this date is being prosecuted for being who they are in other places and I personally think that the premise has already been used every time
- I have to admit that not all the time its a happy day but compared to heteros LGBT people already acknowledge that not all love stories are bound to have a happy end which will lead me to my last point that is:
- I hope that they'd produce more movies that has happy endings as we like to have a break from the sadness too

Basically sums up my opinion on why I rather the rewatch value 6 even if its a gold.
