I really recommend this drama to those who love seeing strong women. I think this drama was driven by characters themselves and not the story. Quite woman-centric, portraying 3 different women, totally different and strong, each in her own way. This drama also has quite enough romance for all female leads.

What I liked:
- women (strong, cool, not losing to men)
-characters (complex and diverse)
-acting (was top notch)
-Scarlet (Cha Hyun) - her character was really like a girl crush for me. But i think that each can find their own crashes because the characters were so diverse.
-men - super charming
-Barro (company) and Brian (SEO) - well I totally liked the way Barro was made and the whole company. Brian was a great leader i loved him!
- nice "quotes". e.g. "What can you do, the world is like that. But also as an adult who had played a part to make this world like this, I apologize to you". by quotes i mean that some of the lines of the characters had an impact on me and i liked them a lot. I liked how they all talked and what they all were saying.
-the job they had. It was quite refreshing to see a drama about a job that you don't usually see in dramas. Working for a search portal. therefore the drama had a lot of stuff dealing with search keywords and it was quite interesting.

What i didn't like:
-for me the romance of the main couple was a bit too much. I started skipping their since. Maybe this is only me I am not saying their romance was bad. It started off great! But in the middle and at the end it started to be a little bit boring for me, when the romances of others started to be super interesting.
so -0,5 points is because of this haha.

P.S. I don't usually rewatch dramas so I just put there whatever.

Crash Landing on You is a nice story but with it's flaws. It's not perfect and not bad.
Even if genre stated that it's a comedy I didn't kinda expect it due to the story type (north-south) but it was a comedy :) If I watched this show before I watched too many dramas I would have loved it. But now I can't help but find faults(?) get bored/tired(?).

Shorter review is at the end.

Story:
Love between a person from South and North Koreas. Well there are dramas like this out there, uniqueness came from how they met - "crashlanded" into another country. That was impressive. I loved the start. It was very interesting I was looking forward to it and was uneasy like why do they show side characters so much, while I wanted to look at the main couple. I was also uneasy because of the whole comedy. the situation was extremely dangerous and crazy but it was shown in the drama as light and comedic. I wasn't expecting that so I was taken by surprise but I grew to appreciate that part and that comedic part was what kept me here. In the second half of the drama which i thought i will enjoy more, my attention turned toward all the side characters and I lost interest in the main couple who kept crying, hurting, injuring, crying etc. I do understand those feelings and I cried too while looking at them but only because i'm oversensitive and tend to imagine myself in their shoes. Should I say the story got unrealistic? Well it wasn't realistic from the start but I think the word realistic has two meanings if not more. Realistic like in real world (dramas like Misaend, Black Dog) and realistic like logical(?). I am already used to dramaland unrealistic parts when they hear someone's conversation when they are like super far away, and don't notice someone coming in or hear someone talk when they are beside them only for convenience. Yeah that might be needed for the story. But still at least NIS can't be THAT nice and kind. Well I did go with the unrealistic-ness okay from the moment I accepted this drama as purely a romantic comedy and not a thriller.
the ending was ok. I can see that because of some political issues they couldn't do a different ending. So this ending was like very expected ending from the very start. I like happy endings and well yeah they can't do a happy ending for everyone because they need to keep the "impact" "emotions"...
I loved the references to Memories of Alhambra and Stairway to Heaven.


Characters/Acting:
Oh characters here were amazing! Especially side characters. At first I didn't want to waste my time watching them and not the main couple, but in the end by showing them so much, I grew fond of them more than the main leads. They were great <3 <3 <3 Lee Jeong Hyuks squad was extremely amazing, north ahjummas were really funny and nice, Se Ri's employees were also very nice and cute. Of course acting was top-notched. I like Hyun Bin from Robin from Hyde Jekyll and I.

Other thoughts:
I really don't understand why were they sued because of too nice North Koreans shown in a drama. I have to contradict myself saying that this is just a drama it doesn't have to be realistic xD on the other hand. That part actually might be realistic because it's not like every single person in a country is good or bad. There are all kinds of people everywhere.

Conclusion:
This is a nice drama to watch so i recommend this to anyone who loves romcoms. Those that have seen many dramas and are kinda tired of romcoms might not find this very good though. My rating is high because of the side characters and the comedy. It was funny, otherwise I almost dropped it. But I am happy I finished it :)

Shorter Review:
What I Liked:
-Lee Jeong Hyuk's squad, Pyo Chi Soo (a north korean girl told his accent is the best out of all xD)
- north ahjummas
-north parents
-north accent
-showing us north's lives.
-side couple
-se-ri's elder brother's wife (the stupid one) funny
- Ri Jyoung Hyuk himself.
-Se-Ri's character
-His messages at the end
-Alhambra and Stairway references <3
-Too Kind NIS

What I didn't like:
-second part of the drama
-crying
-injuring
-dying living dying living
-too kind NIS ( i wrote this in like because i liked them but they were like extremely kind and understanding O_O, either all the other dramas out there are depicting the police, prosection, NIS as too corrupt, or this drama showed them too nice, no idea which one is true for now this one appeared to me unrealistic lol xD)

- My rewatch value is almost always 0 because i don't rewatch dramas.

*Skip a bit for a longer review*

What I liked:
- the job! Negotiations! solving everything through a conversation. how can a listening ear change everything. work with hostage, terrorism situations!
-the concept of pied piper!
- the main lead's transformation
-the villain
- all the amazing quotes and messages of this drama that makes you think about lots of stuff.
-The ENDING! omg amazing

What I didn't like:
-the female lead! so much cries! >< she was annoying (sorry to the actress)
-a bit boring at parts (especially the begging) it is not a spicy drama, the juicy parts for me started at around 9-10th episodes. lol

I recommend it for at least one time watch :) I really enjoyed it a lot, especially the end. You just need to hold onto it and deal with boring parts and the female lead lol. the messages were fantastic. There is no that much romance though (only a super tiny hint, with a small look or small touch).It is mostly about crime and existential questions that rise through the drama, which i liked a lot.

Longer review:

The pied piper takes the children farther and farther....
What can you do for the truth? For justice? Can you become a monster to teach people to listen to the voices of weak?
This drama is about conversation, power, the voices of weak, negotiation, and quite philosophical thoughts.
I'll write a quick summary because i don't think the real summary describes it well.

Slogan: What is needed in the worst situation is not a violence but a conversation!

Summary:
The main male lead is a negotiator! Cold and calm. He does what he needs to for money. One day everything changes and he turns from a successful negotiator to a person who tries to find out the truth behind that case,which changed his life. The female lead is part of the police negotiation team, which is not so much in favor inside the police. Our male lead ends up joining the team and now they try to uncover the truth behind the series of cases where a certain someone controls people behind the curtains, making them commit crimes.

I'd be honest it was boring at first. Well after watching so many crime/mystery dramas this was not a surprise. Signal was out during the same year and was more than incredible. This one.... no, it can't be as good as signal. It's just a drama which has OK-ish first episodes, couple of twists, and breathtaking final episodes. It starts to open many questions and turn into a big question: Are you ready to sacrifice yourself for the sake of a unknown person, or your own comfort is so important that you close your eyes and ears and just follow the tide?
This is how the Pied Piper, with a not-so-amazing story line, slowly, but certainly, made a tiny question crawl into your mind: Is the villain... really a villain? And here goes the philosophical questions about everything, that made me want to immediately think about meaning of life and stuff like that.
There are lots of stories about revenge for parents, sad childhood etc etc that show us all of that in a better way. Well the Pied Piper looked at the problem in a little different perspective. In each one of us lives evil based on traumas, jealousy, complexes, injustice, rage and if someone suddenly shows you that all those emotions are justified and your revenge is needed, your inner monster can get up and go with the sweet melody of the Pied Piper to the road of Hell. But the melody sounds sweeter and louder covered in the vale of your noble intentions...

Do you know how to boil frogs? You boil them slowly controlling the heat so they don't notice. And when they do it's already too late. This country is such a boiling pot, and we are frogs getting cooked in it. The frogs will never notice unless someone comes and tells them, "Get up! lets leave this place, you are being boiled!"

Story:

Well i talked a lot about this already but i wanted to say some more about the occupation of the main leads. This drama is about negotiating. We have seen lots of dramas where people smack each other. Where police doesn't take action at all, or takes action through violence beating each other and all. Well here we follow the team who doesn't go into violence but into conversation. It shows how important it is and how it can save not only the victims/hostages but also the criminals themselves. Because at the end of the day we all strive to be heard. When no one listens to us we get hurt. And when that reaches a certain level when you are already so desperate to be heard but still hit a wall. No one can stop that rage anymore and in the clouded state one makes decisions that cannot be undone anymore. For fare negotiations the both sides need to have the same amount of power. There needs to be a balance, or you get smashed by the other's power. So you take the risks and get yourself a power that sometimes can't be ignored. Like taking hostages. So that the other party will listen to your plead. To you desperate cry.
I also liked how the main lead showed that in different situations when you need someone to do something, like tell cars to open the road for the ambulance, or tell someone to call the ambulance, you don't say it generally referring to all of the people, but tell it precisely to certain people. for example tell the car number and tell them to move, or tell a a person "you, call the ambulance" and not "someone please call the ambulance". Because people really don't react when when someone talks generally, they think someone else can do it.... I really liked how this drama showed it.

Characters + Acting:

Can't say that this drama has all the best characters. Especially when some of them go through the transformation, we all are familiar with, from a strong policewoman, to a crybaby (yes, this is about the female lead). She has her won role though, showing everyone the road of forgiveness, the road that is not through revenge. There is no romance here, by the way, they did some tiny romantic scenes for show but that's all. This Piped Piper is lead by the two main actors, Shin Ha Gyun and Yoo Joon Sang. Others are just extras. I already knew Yoo Joon Sang from Master in the House. He was introduced as a super energetic musical actor. Shin Ha Gyeon I saw for the first time I think, not sure though. The main lead's character goes through a lot of transformations. From a cold negotiator doing everything what it takes to finish his job and get the money, to someone who cares for others people and fights the injustices for free! He is a complex character with difficult personality and sometimes his acts can seem very bad. Some admire him, some hate him. But he does his work well. Solving a problem with minimum loses. What will you do if you can save 4 people by sacrificing one? Ask yourself the question without all moral principles. So what was the answer.....?
On the other hand Yoo Joon Sang plays a reporter who went from a poor reporter with no power, to someone who gained a lot of power by closing his eyes on a certain case only once. Well he didn't forget his principles though. He wanted to unveil lots of truths so he worked hard in his own way. Yoo Joon Sang could perfectly portrait him till the end! standing ovations for him.

The ending was incredible! It was breathtaking and this drama was worth every second for just that ending! bravo!

Music:
It was great!In the OST I discovered a nice song that describes this drama so well!

In conclusion, I think this drama is worthy of at least a one time watch :) Just need to keep watching despite it being not so spicy at the start.


P.S.I usually don't rewatch dramas so i put a random number there.

I am really sad they decided to not make any K-pop stars after this one. It was indeed a very unique show compared to other audition programs. And it gave birth to my favorite AKMU and Ahn Ye Eun. Also Lee Hi, Sam Kim, the soon to debut (or maybe already just debuted) Bang Ye Dam, one of the Winner and many others.
I think the 6th one didn't have that many amazing and unique stages for me, maybe because the girl groups took over it as they were great! But i absolutely agree with the winning team :D i mean I who would win from start because well this was in 2016 I remember studying abroad in germany at the time and seeing over the news about the winners and which company they went. This news was actually what made me start k-pop star from season 1 xD and finally after 4 years I reached season 6 lol xD
anyway the winners are really "monsters", absolutely incredible, i can't wait till they debut. I wonder how did their voices change. I would also like to know how did the fate of others unfold but i didn't find much info on many of them.
I wanted to give this season a 9 but the last ep was soooo touching with all the legendary stages from older seasons. When Lilly m. came out i was also "whoaaaaaa" like others. and of course AKMU stages and AKMU as MCs XDDD lol so i'll give it another 10 like other seasons xD

and also i loved all of the judges through these shows. JYP, YG and Antenna, all were great, kind, strict, helpful. It was really interesting to listen to what they say. I even started to know what they will say to whom, after so much watching xD now when i hear someone sing i think ahhh if they were on Kpop star JYP would say this and that xD
And especially i like Yoo Hee Yeol XD he is the best! He must be a psychologist xDDD such a kind and good person!! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
But generally i think some of the other season's were more interesting. Maybe because i had favorites there. Or at least people i knew that have already debuted like AKMU or Lee Hi. The Ahn Ye Eun drama was also amazing in season 5. But maybe for a girl group fan this 6th season will be more interesting as they were the focus this time, unlike other season's where usually strong vocalists, ballad singers and singer-songwriters were in the spotlight.
Thank you for 6 years of a great show that gave birth to so many singers and let me know the leaders of certain companies a little bit better. :)

Fluffy bubbly lovely cute drama :)

This drama is a very cliche RomCom but i still loved it. I generally love Kim Young Kwang, the actor who played Do Min Ik the main male lead. I was also looking forward to the second main role for female lead Jin Ki Joo, whom i loved in come and hug me. she was great as Jeong Gal hee. Acting was great story was good, it was nice cute and bubble nothing super bad.

What I liked:
- The side character VeRRRonica Park :D she was Awweeeesomeee!!! <3 i love her she became my favorite character. i was expecting her to be the annoying second female who get jealous and does bad stuff, but nope she was Aweeesome!! (Bangawoyo Original VeRRonica Park - i yeyo~~")
- The side character Gi Dae Joo, Veronica's love interest and Do min Ik's best friend. He was so cute haha the innocent and all goody guy :)
- Do Min Ik and Jeong Gal hee themselves they were so cute!
- Secretary squad
- Invisible Confidence Coat that gave confidence to anyone who wears it <3 haha so cute
-Jeong Gal Hee's sister's relationship with veronica park and her cursing in that play.
-Woo Hyun's cameo in the sauna as Jeong Gal Hee's date (the little actor who played Lee bang ji in tree with deep roots and who was chosen as the ugliest person in Infinite challenge lol) he is so cute. lol
- Ending

What i didn't like:
-Do Min Ik's extremely cute side lol i like cuteness but not that much xD i kinda prefer manliness, but this is only my own preference so this doesn't count as a minus for this drama
-Jeong Gal Hee's too much crying in the middle parts of the drama. Well i do understand her being sorry but being unable to tell, but it was taken to too many episodes i almost lost my attention, BUT Verrrronica Park kept me :D
-Jeong Gal Hee's brother... lol i understand he can't see and is kinda cute pretending to be manly strange and quirky but sometimes it was too much for me haha he added lots of comedy though.
-Do Min Ik's mother, well their relationship was too much but Min Ik made it better at the end. (this also is personal preference haha)

Well actually all the above in "what i didn't like" is mostly personal preferences so don't make them keep you from watching this drama.

Overall:
It was Aaawesomeeee (in Original VeRRRonica Park's voice)

Friendship so precious you want to be part of

I inserted a warning sentence before the part that is a slight spoiler :) after it the paragraph ends so you can know when it ends also :)
10 out of 10!
First of all if anyone asks me if they should watch this drama I will definitely say yes! It’s very beautiful story of 5 friends and their life as doctors. The first episodes might be a bit overwhelming with too many characters but soon you will get attached to them and know them all ^^ Honestly I thought I won’t like it when I first turned it on. But as soon as I reached even half of the first episode I loved this a lot. :) It's an epitome of my friendship dream! <3

Life in a hospital is not always sweet but it’s not always sour eirher, it’s not always easy but not always hard either, it’s not always cool with glorified doctors but it’s not always uncool either... it’s just life with it’s ups and downs and in this drama we see it through 5 main characters. Yes 5! Not a male lead, female lead and second lead, but 5 friends with different likes, different departments, different stories. Their friendship is the highlight of this drama and the most precious thing in this world of hospital playbook. This whole hospital life is not shown to us only through these 5 precious friends, but also nurses, some directors, and of course patients and their families. How each and every family is different, how doctors are in pain with their patients and are happy with their patients too.

Honestly I don’t like slice of life/ slow dramas. But this one is different. What I don’t like in those kind of dramas is the grey-ness and sadness they show. But here, they show that it’s not always bad, and even if the life can be horrible at the moment, there is always sun that will shine again later. They show that routine can be enjoyable too and even if it’s not it’s not that bad and can’t be just done. And that they can enjoy different hobbies! The next line is a slight spoiler but we all know how doctors can be called any moment and even if they get a call at night they have to run. So when Sung Hwa reaches her camping site and puts the tent she gets a call and has to clean up the tent right away and go back... she didn’t get to do anything but still she says that she enjoyed going there even if it was for a short moment.
And I just loved their band and jam sessions! It was always my dream so it was especially meaningful for me :)

Characters in this drama like I already mentioned are amazing. Each and every one is special, different and interesting. I love how this drama doesn’t have a villain. All of them are just people. And they are awesome people! All of this of course was possible by amazing directing, writing and acting! Actors did such a great job I got attached to each character and don’t want to say goodbye.

Yang seok young may seem like a boring loner and a mama boy, but is very sweet, had his own share of difficulties and is very strong, responsible and nice.
Chae Song Hwa is like a perfect woman but she too has her difficulties and her little hobbies she enjoyes a lot, she is also very strong and very nice.
Lee Ik Jun may seem like a crazy and irresponsible man, but in reality he cares for everyone and is very sweet, he doesn’t help only his friends but also absolutely everyone in this drama, friend of the world.
Kim Joon Hwan may seem cold and harsh but he also cares for everyone around him and does all the sweetest things without anyone knowing.
Ahn Jong Won may seem naive and week, but he has his own big special things that he is responsibly doing and a heart of big soft gold.
The nurses, residents and other staff had their share of screen time too which wasn’t even slightly brining. Each and every person was unique and interesting.
I love how they show us that you can start your career even later in life, even after you failed at another place. That you can find your love later in life too and that everything will be alright and life goes on.
I need to mention also parents of the main characters and other older cast. At first some of them are introduced in a tricky way making us think that they may be bad. But each and every one of them is so precious! I especially loved chairman’s Rosa’s friendship!
And of course patients and their families, we see all kinds of patients mean and kind but all in all everyone was human trying to live their lives.
Humor in here is another thing and I loved that even after the devastating tragical cases they always included comical scenes to not make the viewers sink in the sadness but give them some ray of light and hope that the sun will shine tomorrow and you can laugh!
Anyway it was really a phenomenal drama that made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I cried and laughed with them and was extremely jealous of their friendship!!!!

P.S. I never rewatch dramas so I just put a random number in there :)

I started this drama because I liked the concept of ghost hotel showed in the trailers and of course i just love IU and i like Yeo Jin Goo. To be honest this drama didn't follow the concept I imagined after watching the trailer. But I still liked it a lot. This will definitely go to my favorites' list. I truly recommend this drama to everyone, because it is beautiful and I am sure you will love that. BUT people who don't like subplots might be bored.
I watched many of the Hong Sisters' dramas, and the Director's dramas and well, none of them were out of ordinary, they all had a great start but failed to keep being great later for me. However this one I can say may be considered as an exception and a success. Maybe that is because of IU's character, but overall ot was great :)

Shorter review at the end.

Story:
Tied destinies, tied fates. The red knot that is connecting all of them shows us a story of love friendship and atonement.
This drama is about a Korean legend, that somewhere around there, there is a place a hotel of the moon where the people who passed away can stay for few days, can rest before they go on to the journey to the afterlife.
The story centers around Man Wol (full moon) and the new manager at her hotel. It's a story that goes through time and space and is a really long one. However during this journey you also see a lot of others. Ghost's side stories that happen throughout a drama and take a lot of time. Well, I truly LOVE this kind of side stories. It's like the good old Japanese mystery dramas/animes I loved. Lots of sidestories all of them can be a story of their own but they still all connect the main story. There are people around there who don't enjoy these kind of things, so If you are so, you might not like the drama as much as I did, however I guarantee you will love the beauty of the drama and IU in it. So you might as well give it a try :)
I loved how this drama focused on the afterlife. Usually the ghost stories don't interest me. But I loved that they showed how people can be taken over by their feelings, almost eaten up and have to wait until that clears, so they can go forward to the afterlife world and then be born again. They showed how sometimes Man Wol helped them not to lose themselves, keep the consciousness and wait till their grudge calms down or disappears. They showed how everything in people's life is not simple and yet it is not so complicated after death. The whole concept of the hotel where ghosts can stay and rest before going to the after life was amazing. I also liked how it changed with time and looked suitable to the era it was in. I liked how they showed that those ghosts can be super scary and at the same time they are still those humans wanting or willing something, it can be something terrible though. It also showed that the grudge even if fulfilled can't be so satisfying as it seemed to be. I really loved it. I loved the concept of feeling of guilt too and how it can make people do unimaginable things even after death. I totally liked all the special services the hotel provided. Anyway it's a complex story about fates that are tied together even after death.

Characters:
Oh IU is marvelous as Man Wol! lol I think everyone heard of her amazing wardrobe, hairstyles and makeup. Well She changed her outfit like 7-10 times during an episode and i LOVED it. haha sometimes it was ridiculous but sometimes it was amazing. Beautiful! But Man Wol was not only pretty she was very strong. a perfect woman. She was feminine yet very strong and at the same time fragile. I loved how she felt confident even while not understanding the economic stuff. I find it also cute how she lived so many years but didn't spent them for learning (which i would LOL) but rather she was all about eating and dressing. haha I loved her character a lot. And I think it will not be wrong to say that this drama hold on to this character and is build around her. Gu Chan Song was also nice. He was an average boy who studied well, in prestige places. He wasn't a special character BUT he was very kind and sweet and smart. I loved him. Thanks to that simple yet warm personality Man Wol could have been moved. <3
I just loved all the main side characters! The three employees of the hotel were such a nice and cute team. I love that we saw more of them at the end. Each of the characters had their own complicated past but each of them still became new people working there and i loved their different personalities. I loved Sanchez(<3) and Mi Ra and the Detective. Sanchez i loved the most out of them. He was a funny friend of the male lead and i think he added a lot of comedy to the show as well as grief.
I totally Loved the gods!! <3 All their personalities were so different and they all did different things <3
I would have liked to talk about all the side characters, even minor ones and even cameos, but I will stop here. :)

Cinematography:
As I said this drama is beautiful! I am going to make a list of beautiful dramas. It's amazing! I really love the cinematography here. And I love the wardrobe of the characters. <3

Acting:
Acting was a Top-Notch. Well I always wanted to say about acting in Characters as they go hand to hand but I saved it for here. IU is always great at acting, i love her in all of her dramas. After the Most amazing but dark and sad my mister role, here she was vivid, wonderful and outstanding. She made the outfit changing in the drama something to look forward to. Yeo Jin Goo is always great at acting but I think this is his BEST tole as a grown-up after Circle. I loved circle but all his other dramas were just meh after it. Finally he got a role where he could fully shine :) Other actors were also amazing! P.O did a great job!!! omg i never thought he will play so well lol xDDD I hope he gets more roles now :) And the Cameos were wonderful!!! So many people made cameos <3 And the last cameo was just soooo impressive!!!!!!!!!
I want to separately say about the Ma Go God. That actress is amazing, truly!! I am so happy she played here lol. The most memorable role of her that I saw was in Good Thief Bad Thief. Oh my she was crazy there. I hated her character with all my heart at first and at the end of the drama I couldn't wait to see her lol. Here she was amazing playing so many <3 I became a fan.

OST:
Well Ost was great :) nice songs, nice artists. what was left in my memory was mostly IU's song that was played only once lol. I just love IU's singing and her Flower Bookmark albums. Also her in MUDO festival with Park Myung Soo XD haha


IN SHORT!! :

What i liked:
-IU!! IU !! IU!!
-Yeo Jin Goo
-The three employees
-Outfits
-Beauty
-cameos
-some concepts
-somewhat ending
-ending super last scene!!!!

What I didn't like:
-some parts of the ending (well It was very logical and well done!! (minor Spoiler!!!!!!!!) - she had to leave and I agree with it yes, but overall they could have showed it much better)
- ending outfits and slowness ( LOL well this one is just something to say if I have to really say something i didn't like, because overall i liked it a lot lol, but during the last episode everything felt super slow, and her outfits were not so amazing. I understand it was necessary though so this can't be considered as something bad about the drama. I just have nothing else to say lol)

hmmmm i can't find anything else i didn't like lol. It was great! A bit not what I expected but It was great I loved it! <3


P.S. I don't usually re-watch dramas so the score i give there is random.

"There are people who think that a woman becomes a mother only when she gives birth to a child. But A woman becomes a mother when she gives all of her to an existence smaller than her" This phrase explains a lot about this drama. But the word "Mother" might actually be the very one word to describe it. Very beautiful and amazing drama. I started this drama because I love Lee Bo Yeong. Didn't see the original before, though expected it to be something emotional just reading the title. I usually need a special mood to watch these kind of dramas, but i don't regret starting it. As soon as I watched the first 4 episodes I already couldn't wait to see what happens next. This drama is all about being a mother. And it shows it so well that I can't find words to describe it. It's a very beautiful interpretation. I watch the original after this, but I still liked the remake better. Japanese are really good with doing emotional stuff, but this time the remake was better. I might be biased though. the girls in Japanese version is a bit smaller than here. Though she did an amazing job doing her role. But I was really amazed at Yoon Bok. She was fantastic. Delivering all those emotions so well. I think this drama should be watched by all mothers and children. No.... not just mothers... parents in general. It can teach one a lot. The fact he one becomes a parent not when they are related by blood, but when they are giving each other their heart. The music also was amazing and on point. Sometimes this drama was super scary. some kind of silent fear was ruling the first half of the drama. The second half was just full of emotions and full of motherhood. This drama has some great character development. Of all the characters. They all change as time passes. Learn a lot and develop. I putted the re-watch value lower, only because it is difficult for me to go through this kind of emotional roller coaster again and again. I don't re-watch dramas often. But this was amazing drama that will stay forever in my heart. It immediately went to my list of favorite dramas and will never leave it. I enjoyed every second of it. It left such a warm and kind feeling inside of me. That I want to keep this feeling for a long time. It was a wonderful drama. full of Love, Hope and Faith no matter how cheesy and cliche this may sound. Of course it was also full of Fear, Despair, Sadness. But the Love was above all. By the way I also like how this drama shows the importance of books in the digitized world. "Every book is a door to a different world" A beautiful phrase that made the girl read a lot of books. "the moment birds start to fly towards Egypt, there are already in Egypt" - Loved this quote too. I really recommend this drama to all. <3
