Needless to say, I was shocked by this film. The synopsis is just a small dip in the water to what this film is really about. I waited a while to watch this, because I was curious as to why it was rated MA on Netflix. I’m not into gory films so I didn’t wanna get caught up watching something sickening. This movie has violence, suspense (and I can not stress that enough), thrills and it grips you tightly the whole way through. My thought at the very end was, “Man, that was a ride!” And it was. I’m a bit of a scaredy-cat so I did end up covering my eyes and pausing it a few times, purely because of the suspense and erie music. The rewatch value, in my opinion, is high with this one. I would love to watch it with someone who has never seen it, and I’m sure I’ll convince someone to watch it with me. Give this one a chance.

I know I’m in the minority with my rating and some of my critiques of this drama, but none without a reason so hear me out.

PSA: this review doesn’t contain spoilers, but it would make more sense to someone who has finished this drama.

For starters, this drama is real, almost too real. It is a melodrama in every sense of the word. Throughout the show I was left wanting insight and conclusions that might have been too unrealistic. That’s not a big flaw on the shows part, but more with my expectations. Also, there were some characters I wanted to know more about and other characters I wanted to know less about. For instance, I wanted to know more about how Song Ki Beom (Ji An’s friend who played video games) met Ji An. I wanted to know what happened to that old man who was a father figure to Ji An. I get that I can come to conclusions about those things myself, but I thought it would have been a nice touch to see things like that added in to tie up loose ends. Personally, I wasn’t too interested in Choi Yoo Ra (the actress), she seemed a bit awkward and towards the end I was more interested in what would happen to other characters, like Jung Hee. So my overall problems with this drama are the screen time distribution of certain characters, and loose ends that could have made the end amazing if tied up nicely.

All of that aside, this was a decent drama. The acting was impressive all around. The soundtrack was magnificent. The song Rainbow (Band ver.) by Vincent Blue set the tone every time. For the most part the story was good, aside from me wanting more from it. The cinematography never disappointed me. For me, the characters are what drove this drama. It could have had any plot with these characters and I still would have watched it. Will I rewatch it? Probably not. Although, it was nice to watch once.

If you’re looking for a slow paced, realistic, melodrama, centering around a tight-knit community, then this show is for you.

This movie captures the loyalty of a dog, even when an owner doesn’t want that loyalty. The love that Hearty gave to his owners was immeasurable and touching. My rating can’t be higher, simply because of how saddening this was. There was more animal abuse than I wanted to see, which is what was so heartbreaking. I thought the younger actors and actresses did a great job with their performances. If you love dogs, or animals in general, be prepared to cry watching this. I could hardly look at my own dog the day after I watched this. Maybe I’m making this movie sound too sad, it just hit me at the wrong time. Good luck!

(Writing based on both seasons)

This drama had some cookie-cutter cliches (Family secrets, love triangle, friends to lovers) and was unrealistic, but I loved it anyway! I really needed a lighthearted rom-com to brighten up my summer and this drama did just that. The general plot was decent, but the show seemed to be driven more by the characters personal stories, which makes it a pleasant watch. I almost felt like a kid watching this, wishing I could have similar experiences as the characters. It really made me feel the excitement I felt when I first started watching dramas in 2013. While this show isn't groundbreaking or my #1, it did remind me why I like rom-coms in the first place. Also, there were no annoying conglomerate schemes to ruin the vibe. Give it a chance! Big thanks to all the actors/actresses, set workers, etc. who brought us this drama!
