Love in Its Purest Form

I just finished watching this drama and am now in a state of post-drama blues. This drama shattered me emotionally. I cried and cried while watching the last few episodes.

It really does epitomise the most purest form of love. Love without definition. Love which is unconditional, where each party gives everything they have to keep one another safe, while expecting nothing in return. This kind of love isn't strictly romantic or platonic, but is a delicate balance of both. It's the kind of love that remains within social boundaries, and transcends it, all at the same time.

I place the relationship portrayed in this drama between Park Dong-hoon and Lee Ji-an among my favourite literary couples - Jane Eyre and Edward Rochester, Elizabeth Bennett and Mr Darcy, Margaret Hale and John Thornton, Mister Stevens and Miss Kenton, Jay Gatsby and Daisy Buchanan. It saddens me that I cannot share my deep empathy for these characters with anyone I know in the real world, and it saddens me further than this kind of love is so rare in this day and age.

I hope these words find their way to someone who is considering watching this drama, and convinces them to take the leap. Highly, highly recommend. My favourite Kdrama yet!
