A supposed wonderful love story shattered tragically by inexorable revenge. + Prepare your Hearts~
Just 1 piece of advice. If you ever encounter my review and is contemplating whether to watch this show or not due to its obvious sad ending; Then I highly encourage you to do so because you're about to miss a good drama if you don't!!!
I have always hated such tragic and sad ending stories ever since, and this is most probably the very 1st time I was not able to feel overly disappointed and irritated on how such story ended.
Even though this drama showed cruelty, betrayal and revenge over and over again, the entire context will just make you understand how and why they have decided to do it that way. I admit that I terribly hated it at first but eventually you'll realize how brilliant the writing of this story is and how well thought the entire drama is (story wise). Yes!! It may not be the most reasonable and logical plot you usually encounter out there but this story surely offered something new; it was an act of driving a drama in a complete misery without dragging and making the entire story non-sensical instead making it substantial and worthwhile.
To give you all more insights— The Male Leads' of this drama were all highly conflicted. The ML is highly driven by revenge and eventually greed that he's ready to take every possible step needed (even if it has to inflict inexplicable damage to his most beloved one) just to achieve his goal. While the 2nd ML was initially burdened by his supposed fate and responsibility that made him cause great pain to his loved one but immediately realizes everything and sorted to doing all his best to make sure that the FL won't suffer from any of it over again.
This drama can make you feel how grief and pain truly is in the most heartbreaking way. How sorrowful love can be. and how can revenge and vengeance ruin everything for you slowly but surely. The amount of anguish it can make you feel may be overwhelming at times but this drama was able to balance it by presenting lovely and bickering scenes from the Main Leads as well as giving us reasons why it has to be done in the first place.
One of the major issue I found over the Protagonists of this show is... ML lack the ability to express his feelings does making the FL even more indifferent from him. While the FL is simply too carefree, earnest and pure to even do something bad or even realize all the scheming happening around her; which causes their great misunderstandings and eventually grew them apart.
Story - 10, Up until this very moment I'm still thinking whether to give this drama a perfect 10 or not. One thing about this show is that, as you watch through it you'll realize the real purpose of the story and how it was created while thinking of the best possible outcome on how to make the story beautiful yet heart-wrenching. It may sound cruel and heartbreaking (cause it is lol) but that's also the greatest asset of this drama. If only they gave us happy ending. ><
Acting - 10, The set of actors and actresses on this show were really good. They all delivered their characters with such intensity and accuracy that you'll see yourself getting drawn to them naturally and effortlessly.
Music - 10, I'm so drawn to the Music in this drama. Specially those sad and dramatic scene inserts. I often find myself getting all emotional and teary-eyed about it. Kudos to the music and sound department.
Rewatch Value - 10 Unexpedtedly, I enjoyed this drama so much to the point where I don't feel any hatred and remorse after finishing it. I'll surely still watch it if given a chance and that's because of its overall good story progression and plot.
Overall - 10, Despite the sad ending and heartbreaking scenes, this drama proves that a good writing and script can cover and mend all that. It is a 1 in a million drama everyone should definitely watch. Don't get intimidated by its outcome and instead enjoy the long-ass-ride. I swear to god, it's all worth it~!!
