The side stories were intriguing and kepte hooked to know more. I really loved MLs elder sisters. And, the second couple's story also had some development in terms of maturity and more depth.
But, coming to the 1st couple story in drama.... I have a lot to say. Since I just completed the drama, my thoughts are random and just flowing. Their story was clichéd and boring. There were many repetitive scenes from a lot of dramas with similar story lines, nothing new or maybe it didn't seem like they owned it.
Moreover, I didn't like the fl specially. The whole breakup scene in epi 15 was so not necessary. She broke up with him because he was 'too nice '!!!!! Seriously why!!!? If she thought she was not being good enough for this relationship, she should have put in some efforts instead of just breaking it off. He endured soo much for her, was this the right thing to do?
Also, I didn't like her approach towards her mother in the earlier episodes. Her mother behaved the way she did because she wanted to protect her daughter from the harsh truth of her father (though her own unacceptance was also a reason), so instead of behaving like that, leaving her mother all alone, she would have told her from the beginning that she knows the truth about her father. Then maybe her mother would not have to pretend but she chose not to confront her mother and at the end blamed everything on her.
Similarly, during her first break up I didn't like the way they both (1st ml and fl) did not tell BM Lee the real reason for her being so put off instead they decided to just pretend. Although I didn't like the way he was playing with the life of two girls for his own selfish needs, but I did not the fls approach then. And, when she was clear of the mess of that relationship she did not even bother to care about that other girl even when Lee left, she never even gave a minimum thought about what was happening there. She was just happy in her own bubble.

P.S. I wrote the incidents in random fashion, but in the order that it happened, it made me feel like the FL cared only for her happiness and nothing about the others around her, not even the ML. Oh, and about the Europe thing, I don't think choosing career was wrong on her side but she could have easily tried managing the relationship as well, for that she need not leave everything and come back to Korea.

A MUST WATCH!!!

Most intriguing and engaging drama ever. The portrayal of each character was so on point. Best acting by Joong gi. You can completely connect with the whirlpool of emotions flowing inside Do Hyoun so.
It was a perfect blend of suspense, thriller, and romance, which means they did not any part. Only the ideal amount of each ingredient that you need to make a perfect dish.
It was a treat to watch and would definitely love to rewatch. And, if you are a fan of crime, suspense and thriller, this is a 'must watch', if you are a fan of emotional back stories of lead characters, still a 'must watch', and if you are a fan of deeper romance, then you must watch it. You will love it.
Moreover, this the fastest I have completed a 16-episode drama i.e. in one and half day and still thinking about the characters after one day of completion.
