I actually watched the first 9 episodes of this drama a few months ago, but since i was watching a few more better dramas at the same time, i dropped it for a while and eventually forgot about it. But i was glad that i picked it up again from where i left off and finished the drama at last.
It actually has a good storyline. It has quite an interesting plot and a unique setting as it was a story within the airport premises. As we know, there's quite a very few kdrama with this kind of work setting. It doesn't focus on the pilot nor the flight attendants, but more on the ground personnel of the airport, how they go about with their daily work routine, the different problems they encounter with passengers and flight conditions, etc. I can also sense some kind of promoting tourism for korea, which is, i think, a very good way of promoting one's country. What better way than in a globally popular kdrama world. And what makes this drama praiseworthy is their approach in every episode to educate the public in a much clearer way on the do's and dont's inside the airport. And a much noticeable way of how proud they (korean) are on how well Incheon airport personnel handle each problem or circumstances. This drama is all fiction but, having been at Incheon airport and South Korea myself, this is what, more or less, the reality out there. They really have good working habits.
As to the actors. Lee Jae Hoon, eversince i saw him in Tomorrow With You, he exudes this mysterious aura in him, that not many actors have. He may not be a "flowerboy" handsome like many actors but there's something in his face aura that will make you feel attracted to him (of course, im talking about my personal opinion). I really liked him in TWY and i love him even more here. And i think, he and Chae Soo Bin have one of the best love chemistry. I get fluttered when they hold hands, when they kiss, when he looks intensely in her eyes, and when they cry together. I can feel every emotions from them. Soo Bin, for me, is not the best korean actress but she is way way better than most actresses today. She can pull it off with any one she pairs with. When i saw her in I Am Not A Robot, i thought that she and Yoo Seung Ho have the best chemistry ever. But when i saw her in A Piece of your Mind, i thought, oh, she and Jung Hae In are much better pair. But now, i just finished with this drama, i thought again, oh, she and lee jae hoon is a pair to envy with. I think Chae Soo Bin, because of her cute aura, she can easily pull off a fluttering romance with any actors she is paired with. The OST are also very nice to hear. It will make your heart flutter more.

But inspite all that i mentioned above, i just gave this drama a score of 8, its because there were a lot of unanswered questions in my mind. Too many characters that has no ending and was left hanging. And the ending, the biggest question in my mind until now....

BIG SPOILER AHEAD.. (please dont read below if you dont want to know the end)


Although it has a happy ending, the big question is, why was Lee Jae Hoon's face was not seen on the last scene. It was only his back, but they never exposed his face. Why? I dont like endings like that. It makes me want to ask for one more episode.

Overall, i think its a very good drama to watch.
