I have so much to say about this drama! Every episode had me intrigued but I never reached that "full enjoyment" threshold until the story was nearing its end. I must say, the last few episodes were so satisfying despite the plotholes. This is the kind of drama where the writer had a start and end in mind, without much thought on how to fully connect them in the middle. You know, how some dramas end badly after having a great premise? This is not one of them. It had a great start and a satisfying end (with a few plot-turning choices I do not agree with but eh, they're easily forgivable in my opinion.) The middle was kinda messy though but when it ended, I was left with all the feelings of satisfaction.

The actors were great. I especially loved Lee Je Hoon. He was shinning throughout the drama and took over every scene. Also, the middle "confusion" episodes were saved because of the romance between the leads. I enjoyed it a lot. I thought they were very lovely together despite their rushed beginning. Though they were married, I, as a viewer, felt the "offness" of their relationship, but, considering the reason for their marriage in the first place, it was expected. However, as the story progressed, I began adoring them as a couple without realizing it. I loved their scenes even more when So Joon became more expressive, in a sense that he was acting out of his real feelings, and not out of obligation or responsibility for their future. All in all, I appreciated the slow buildup of their romance -- I think it saved a lot of the episodes. I also liked the mystery behind Jo Han Chul's character. His story also kept me interested.

ALSO, Kim Feel's With You is such a lovely song. All the songs were soothing but THAT one song deserves 20/10 rating!

I recommend this for people who like slow progress and something introspective. But idk I think everyone should give it a try.
