The concept of this drama was interesting. This was a story I have never seen before, at least not delivered in a package like this. It was believable, even though it seemed to be far-fetched from the summary. The casting was great. Jang freaking Hyuk, I can't. Loved that every other episode he'd grown in his 5 o'clock shadow. Park So Dam was adorable and plucky, fell in love with her from the first episode. The supporting cast was amazing and included some of my favorites like Yoon Hyun Min, Oh Je Sung and a hilarious Kim Hyung Kyu, who's departure from the deadly Mantis in Last was amazing. Add to that the most delightful Bromance Team, because who wants just one Bromance when you can have a Bromantic Ensemble? Jang Hyuk's worked very hard on this character. How to depict someone who has no emotions and still evoke the sympathy of the watchers? He did a great job. The music was wonderful. I really like the song that played during most of the sadder scenes. It was beautiful. As for rewatch value, I would probably watch this again, and soon. I thought it was a great show. Now, a few personal notes that I have to add. I'm disappointed that they cut the episodes by two. As expected, the last episodes had a rushed feeling, which is why some of my scores were lower than the 10 I would have loved to give them. I'm not sure what happened here. Assuming the ratings were low, I wonder that they don't try moving these shows to another time slot. ALSO, about my Jang Hyuk, that D.I.L.F., time is beginning to catch up to him. I almost fell out of my chair at the SPOILER ALERT** no-abs shot in the beginning...where did they go? Still love this man and his dreamy voice.
