The writers of this show deserve to win every major award, as does Junho, because he is a fantastic actor and they are fantastic writers.

These characters felt incredibly real. With a lot of shows, even if you like the acting and never doubt that the actor is their character, it remains that they are playing a character. The people in this drama felt like people. The events that happened could actually happen. Anyone here could be someone you meet on the street. And I think that feeling, like these could be people you know, really lent itself to how emotional this drama was. This drama was equal parts heart-wrenching and heart-warming.

The relationships in this drama are also noteworthy, and I'm not talking just about the romance. Our main male lead has a 'found family' of so many different, odd, beautiful people. The way people care for each other throughout this show was wonderful.

Just Between Lovers is a marvel. I recommend it to anyone who doesn't mind heartache and likes emotional connection with their shows.

I do NOT recommend this show to people who have been through traumatic experiences similar to being trapped underground or having a building collapse and suffered PTSD, because this show does not hold back in that regard and I would hate if it triggered their PTSD and/or made them panic.
