I watched the drama when it was first airing and I liked it alot, but I didn't feel I had enough enough of an option to write a review. Today I was listening to one of the OSTs and decided to write one.

Why Nam Do San and Seo Dal Mi worked. When I was watching many didn't like the pair. Personally I was fine with it, but I think why they work is because of two reasons. They started their journey together and second Nam Do San was a real person and the one from Seo Dal Mi's childhood wasn't. To elaborate on my second point, the Nam Do San in Seo Dal Mi's childhood was a collection of words on a paper who's intention was misinterpreted by her childlike imagination. I'm sure many if not all have imagined their crush or someone who they've taken an interest being their prince or their princess. We constantly expect the best in people we like, we like to be swept off our feet like in a fairy tale. But when I came down to it, that Nam Do San was all in her head. she had never actually interacted with him. Yet the Nam Do San she met later was someone real, with faults and insecurities just like her. He may not have been the knight in shining armor, but he was definitely someone Seo Dal Mi could actually touch and interact with. He was real, it wasn't her escapism. No matter how great a fantasy is, and no matter how ugly a reality is, one has to accept reality.

Why Han Ji Pyung letting Seo Dal Mi go was a good choice. Firstly Seo Dal Mi actually liked the real Nam Do San we can see her remembering him, and almost depending on him even after years pass. Seeing that dedication and love wouldn't any person realize that trying to force something was cruel not only to oneself, but to others as well? Secondly Han Ji Pyung almost antagonized Nam Do San, he was human and anyone would have done the same, but he did antagonize Nam Do San. Yes Nam Do San acted almost childish and it seemed unfair for Han Ji Pyung to be like a thrown orange skin. Yet Nam Do San wasn't really as Antagonistic back, he beat Han Ji Pyung up before because he hated his own weakness. He tried to separate from Han Ji Pyung because he didn't want to be a shadow. He never did something to actually directly hurt or do something to Han Ji Pyung if I remember right, it was just a lot of messed up context killing Nam Do San. Anyway later when Han Ji Pyung and Nam Do San have a drunk night and he wakes up and overhears how Nam Do San wanted to do something for him, he realized 'What is this guy doing? I'm his love rival, but here he is caring about me. Why is he so stupid? I wouldn't do that,' and that is fundamentally why Han Ji Pyung let Seo Dal Mi go, because he wasn't capable of being a normal person with her. He had turned from an adult into a child trying to push someone away into getting something he wanted. It show's his growth and his desire to reach his own happiness without Sacrificing what made him good.

The secondary characters had pretty interesting storylines aswell, except that guy who's brother died. It just seemed his growth was weird in my opinion.

Osts were bomb!
