YOU Better read this, I put all my mind on it. hehe

I started this drama because of the good reviews and eventually started watching it. To be very hones, I am not very into it at the first half, I mean I liked it but not that much but then they poured out everything at the end. This is like a set of many bomb that has been ticking for a very long time and accidentally explode at once. I just thought that they have been putting a really really calm story but then it burst out like a storm at the end, I think that it is better if they slowly addressing the issues one by one not bombing us at once. I don't know but they gave us so much at the end that I don't know if it is still part of the story. But that was only my negative thoughts, I mostly liked it ,really much.

Firstly feels of this drama is like you are at that boat on the mountain where you can view everything, the drama is like a documentary is a countryside covering all the stories of the neighbourhood. I can relate to this because , I was raised in the province and I found that the traits, characteristics and attitudes of the neighbours is quite the same as my hometown. It is refreshing with the view of the oceans and mountain every episode and not those tall buildings and exhausting traffics in the city.
There are so many story in this series like everyone has their pain, happiness, sadness and problems and they all gave them a happy ending at the end.
I love the friendship of the three grandmas, they always bicker but we can see that friendship and their relationship is pure and honest. The death of Grandma Gam-ri reminded me of my grandma who also passed away for sometime, like Du-sik I did not cry but I know and remember all the memories we have together, she is really like my grandma who keeps on cooking and forcing me to eat them.
I find the two kids really keopta and adorable, they are really great with their acting. And all the neighbourhoods different stories will touch you, it depicts about their past pains, their family relationship, work management and how can they maintain a harmony within all the neighbours.

I also find the story of the police officer and Minseo really cute and adorable, I always laugh because of them, even though they have less airtime, they are my happy pill on this series. Their love is really pure and full of understanding hehe.

And of course the story of our Chief Hong and Ms Dentist. They have a really simple love story but they both have a dark past that is not easy for them to let go and that made their relationship a bit complicated. Ms Dentist has a very sad past but she is very open to share her story so that someone could could hear it and that made her to never forget how her past was like. I know she is very selfish at first but that is because of her past that made her that, that she is selfish in a way that she could also teach the others to at least give love and care for themselves so that their relatives won't be very sad if their gone. For Mr. Hong, he is the kind of person who will keep everything and accept everything then hide it in his heart and that made him live a very sad life covered with the smiles, laughs and happiness he gave to his neighbourhood and Ms. Dentist was able to remove that bandage in his heart to let him open it and let it flow so that they could go out of him. And because of them, I smiled everytime.
I liked how they chose Gongjin as the destination because it is not so famous site and not so busy and that made the story more natural.
I first thought this as a comedy but who would have thought that it was full of sad stories that is why I put my rating on re-watch value lower. I recommend you to watch it and hold until the end and you won't regret it.

Let's say thank you Gongjin.
