Not sure how to feel about this drama

This drama started off well but it was quite draggy halfway through. I felt like the drama added elements to drag the story out to make it become 36 episodes at the end.

I think it would have been better if this drama had less episodes and more concise storyline. I felt that this drama wanted to throw in different tropes to make this drama interesting.

The main couple had a lovable relationship. I think there were elements that made their relationship issue realistic but towards the end of the drama, it was heavily dramatisied. Like some of the plot in the later part of the drama felt like it was thrown in to lengthen the drama.

Also all the side characters had a story and it didn't overshadow the main couple. It felt purposeful. Though, with the second couple, their relationship and the reason why they separated for so long didn't seem like a good enough reason and didn't make any sense. It felt like they made something up on the spot and filmed on a whim probably thinking no one would care about a couple that wasn't the main couple.

In addition, I don't feel satisfied with the ending and the last two episodes were quite confusing. I watched until the end and I think this is due to watching it when it was still ongoing. I reckon if you watch this drama now that the drama is complete, the probability of dropping this drama is high.

This drama had good bones but the execution was disappointing. Overall, this is a good filler drama but I don't think it's binge worthy.
