Bittersweet , Heart flustering and Painful

The show opened with great premise the setting set around the show indicated what the show mainly focused about ,the uprising, from the beginning you’re pulled to get deeply involved with the characters and their stories, the main lead’s embodiment of great virtue with good morals which is hard to find in a show his representation from the very start amazed me and had me falling, our female lead is a strong character facing hardships from a young age not like your stereotypical female who needs all her problems solved by the ML and needs sympathy A BIG NO!!? she might be struggling and in a difficult situation but doesn't need viewers to piety her character, she is embodied with bravery and courage, the side characters started initially as annoying but later on you will come to understand their stance their situation and how realistic the selfish portrayal is of them and the way they acted are justified .

The romance drew me in and hit me hard the beginning of falling for the one who you’re not supposed to happens to be going against the odds for love which in between is showcased is hard as how both leads struggles to found their footings and stray away for a while to test their love for each other and how beautifully and realistically they realize they can't live without each other their love without even saying a word can be demonstrated by the way they glare at each other how intimate and vulnerable they are to each other and how understanding they are of each other which displayed reality of love in life that love is not easy it has it's ups and downs but they are the things what makes it worth it.

The show focused upon how people who lost their loved once in the uprising were left alone unable to process without their loved once throughout their lives and how one month affected their whole life how scattered they became how nerve wrecking they felt the constant urge to not live anymore but have to continue to struggle and pull yourself for the loved once who would want them to live how hard it is to survive and have constant insecurity of loss how vulnerable certain circumstances make you.

The director and production did a great job the whole 80's setting was exceptionally executed and without a doubt should receive their reward for such great work from the beginning I just loved the scenes the tone and how emotionally it was showcased just astoundingly.

I watched it while it was airing from episode 1 and still can't get over this masterpiece give it a try if you're looking for great chemistry and storyline but buckle up for emotional scenes and how realistic the execution is and from episode 8 onwards has major violence so bear that in mind but also from episode 1 till 6 had great character development and romance scenes from 7 to 8 it gets heavy and last episodes are bittersweet and but worth it.
HAVE GOOD LUCK WATCHING AND LUCKY YOU THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO WAIT A WHOLE WEEK FOR EPISODES!!
