I WAS SOBBING
I know, it doesn't have any music, story and the cast is just the director and his mother but these 1 minute 34 seconds made me feel sooooooooooo much....I know it sounds like I'm over-exaggerating but I seriously am not....The way his mother, despite her old age walks all the way to the grocery store and comes back carrying a heavy cabbage just to make jeon for her son, who's coming back home, shows us how POWERFUL mothers are....Every single day many of us blessed people who have their mothers, experience this...And we all are sooooooo used to our mothers being kind to us that we never even think of their hardwork....I tell my mom "iloveyou" several times, but I don't know if I'm truly being a good daughter to her....I wanna write more but my tears are blurring my vision....I apologize for any grammatical/lexical errors....

Time well spent
I remember the first day I started watching this drama, I was soooo glad that I finally had time to once again start a weekend drama after starting university. I was excited because I loved Ahn Jae Hyun and Baek JinHee, and I knew I'd fell in love with them and I did....I loved experiencing every ups and downs with them. I will love and remember everytime I've spent with them...Thankyou YeonDo, thankyou TaeKyeong, thankyou HaNeul and thankyou Gong and Oh family, my heart has alot of love for you all.
p.s: Let's appreciate Headmaster Jang more, he's always been the brightest person in this drama.
p.p.s: Won and his dad were the cutest people in the whole 50 episodes.
♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

ROUND OF APPLAUSE
THE ACTING IN THIS DRAMA IS TOP-TIERRRRRRRR...I've always been a big fan of Lee MuSaeng. His acting is always amazing but the side that we got to see in this drama, made me fall for his acting skills once again...
I don't think, Lee BoYeong's talent needs any introduction, like always, she delivered her best in this drama too....♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
Now, let's talk about the story.....Every episode of this drama was meaningful, no extra scenes, no dragging story....Everything was perfectly balanced...
I wanna mention my most favorite scene, soooo SPOILER ALERTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!
The moment, MoonYeong sees her husband cheating on her, instead of crying and blaming him, she drives her car into the house and beats him with a golf stick.....Woahhhhhhhhhh!!!!! Queennnnnnnnn>>>>>>>>

Giggling and screaming
OMGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!! This drama has me giggling and screaming in my pillow because it's ADORABLEEEEEEE....No crazy villians, no twisted plot, just two cute individuals being extremely CUTEEEEEEE....● MyungSoo, like always is THE BRIGHTEST STAR...I don't think, I've ever seen him fail us with his visuals and acting....Jewel on top, is the way he speaks in this drama>>>>>>>> LOVE THAT....
Every Monday and Tuesday, I THANK his hair stylist for that GORGEOUS styling that we see in this drama...GIVE THEM A RAISE, PLEASE....
● YooYeong, never, and I mean, NEVER disappoints me with her work...I see her and say YES to watching whatever she's starring in.... My girl is, TA LEN TED....

A CRAZYYYYYY RIDE
I love watching sageuks but most of them have one or two boring episodes BUT THIS one (for me) didNOT have any boring episodes...Every episode that I watched left me wanting for more episodes. I know, it had crazyyyyyyyyy twisted characters and a lot of political turmoil, but it was all worth it....I absolutely loved all the actors and actresses in this drama (SuHo being on the TOP ofc), but I wanna talk about MinKyu playing Dosung...He literally made me love, hate and relove his character. Kudos to him for being an amazing actor.
Our affair couple, ummmmmm, I lowkey thought they were in a toxic obsessive situation but the way writer-nim whitewashed them in the name of "love", not sure if I should be forgiving him or not...
Overall, it was a great story with GORGEOUS actors and actresses...
(am I the only one, who wants to see a drama with our affair couple reincarnated and meeting in the modern day era!?)

Name of the Assassin
Does anyone knows the real name and Instagram of the man who tries to kill Sung Hoon?I really really need it.....
I thought his acting throughout the series was pretty amazing..
Overall, I loved this drama soooooooooooooooooooo much and I don't understand why is it soooooo underrated.?
The cast was amazing... I instantly fell in love with Kim Jong Hoon....He's an amazing actor
As for SungHoon, I've watched almost all his dramas... He's gorgeous...
I love the female lead... I first saw her in Because it's my first life.... I was in love with her acting...
I highly recommend this drama

Hilarious
I literally had soooooooo much fun watching this drama...I do lowkey wish they had more elaborated story and more episodes, but I do understand that keeping it simple is more charming.The cast was selected sooooooooooo perfectly....I absolutely loved everyone on this drama.
I did feel extremely uncomfortable by that one totally unnecessary scene of the main antagonist...The drama would've been much better without that kinda scene.
Overall, a really good drama and totally worth my time...♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

COMFORT DRAMA
If you're looking for a drama that doesn't have over complicated, difficult plot or any other shenanigans going on, and you want to relax with a slow burning romance, I DEFINITELY DEFINITELY DEFINITELY recommend this drama...We all know, HOW AMAZZZZING our main leads are, but what I wanna talk about is the OST....😭😭❤❤❤❤That legit is one of the best OSTs of 2024...Besides this, the overall cast is fantastic, I KNOW I KNOW, many of them still need character development, but that's why we're here, to see them become the BEST versions of themselves....
Sooooooo, If you're into such dramas, this drama will surely feel like, "HOME" to you...♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
byeeeeee♡♡♡♡♡♡ (I'll update this after I finish this drama...xoxo)

Hot take: It's better than season 1
Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love Park HyungSik and Han SoHee's duo, but I PERSONALLY am not a big fan of friends to lovers....Probably that's why I loved the story of this Soundtrack more.I loved the "PASSION" our main leads had for each other....
I saw many people criticizing the female lead, but as a person who unfortunately suffers from inferiority complex, I TOTALLY understand her being cautious about taking SuHo's help.
So, I can say I loved how, instead of being picture perfect, our leads had flaws, and they did overcome it....
Ending was a bit rushed but I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS SOUNDTRACK...♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

Don't let the other reviews deceive you...
As I was finishing the last episode, I literally wanted to scream because I didn't wanted it to end...THIS WAS SOOOOOOOO AMAZING....If like me, you're also into heartwarming stories with slow burning romance , this drama is definitely for you...Romance is sooo subtle....The characters, all are written soo well, showing us their struggles and growth...I saw people talking about the age gap...But the age gap in this was NOT awkward or cringie, rather our ML gently took care of our FL....
I wanted to watch this drama in 2020, but kept pushing it and now I regret not watching this fabulous drama before.... ㅠㅠㅠ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
At the end, I'll just say that DONOT LET THE OTHER REVIEWS stop you from watching this drama, please....HAPPY WATCHING YALL...
