No specific spoilers

First let’s start with the portrayal of Koreans or Korean women rather as sexual beings,the fact that Koreans are the most conservative people and they made a drama like this showing emotions and sexual desire is amazing to witness. Shows that they are people too and there is no shame in desiring something. I like those parts a lot. It wasn’t anything slutty,it’s just how we humans are built.

Secondly,I loved how Sangtae grew as a character,as someone who has an autistic family member,witnessing some of their characteristics in Sangtae made my heart feel at ease. They are people too and living with a disability shouldn’t define their entire being. The portrayal of him being able to associate peoples feelings made my heart flutter especially when he was taking care of Munyeong,and he could tell what she was feeling.

Thirdly a new side of koreans dealing with mental illness. I won’t get too much into it but we all know it’s something they overlook.

Fourthly the relationship between Gantae and Munyeong is so complex but beautiful. They have good chemistry. They evoked feelings of loneliness and longing I didn’t know I had.

Lastly I honestly recommend this drama. It’s amazing. Please go watch it if you haven’t. I tried not to put any spoilers. The ending was so beautiful. The way Sangtae found his own path made me cry. I loved the way the characters kept developing,they weren’t stagnant. The supporting cast also didn’t feel like the supporting cast,the way they also developed without actually relying on the main characters was beautiful to see. I wish I hadn’t watched this drama because I want to experience it again with fresh new eyes.
