I had extremely high expectations for this drama, and it was beautiful to watch, but also boring. After watching the first few episodes, I thought this was going to be a mellow visual drama, which is what it was, and it was really well done. 10/10 for the person who directed, filmed, produced, etc. Visually, I was pulled in.
As for the characters, I loved their "tragic" backstories that haunted them to present day which ultimately led them together. I loved how it went from annoyance, to curious, to "friends," to finally lovers. And their romance was cute and passionate and mature. But...they were the only people that I cared about in this drama. I didn't care much for Oh Bo Mi or Choi Chang, especially as a couple. I liked Choi Chang in the beginning when he started to hit on Young Jae when she first moved to the area, but all of a sudden, he just stopped showing up and insta fell in love with Bo Mi. Bo Mi on the other hand, was just not my type of drama character. She was a tad annoying, but I have to give her credit for having passion for her job. But I think I didn't like her whatsoever was because she didn't go through any character development. I think the only other people I cared about in this drama were Kang San Hyuk's assistant (who is the REAL homie) and his teammates when he joined the forest rescue team.
There were some heavy scenes and topics in this drama that I have yet to see in other dramas (I don't watch medical dramas) and I thought they did a very good job going about every situation. I think my issue with this drama was that...it was boring. Some episodes were better than others, instead of having a consistency ratio. Also, having a degree in business, I was super lost whenever they talked business, which was a large part of the drama. I got some things, but not all.
Overall, I might watch this drama again just for the way it was filmed. It makes me wish this was a real place (maybe it is...I couldn't find it) so I can go visit it. Maybe Airbnb that little house. As for the plot, maybe not. It was def a "business" drama. If you cut all that business talk about and just watch the rest of the drama, maybe it would be more entertaining. For me at least. I also wanted to give this drama a higher score than what I have been seeing because, I have not seen another drama so visually pleasing before. Also, the romance between the mains was super sweet and loving that I can overlook everything else.
