I thought that the title was weird but the final plots proved me wrong.

I'm glad that the episodes are less than 20 minutes long each. An exceed of a minute or two could've made this in my Dropped Lists. Honestly speaking, episodes 1-3 can be shortened to a single episode. There is too much airtime for unnecessary scenes in the initial episodes. I take the risk just to finish this series. Well, I'm glad that I did it.

I find the title weird because every action in the beginning until episode 6 that Woo Jae has made is too much unjustifiable for me to understand his own circumstances. Literally, he's the very existence of selfish and inconsiderate. In comparison to the other main character, Yeon Woo's actions are reasonably valid.

But no, no, no, I was mistaken! As the plots are approaching to the end of the storyline, everything gets clearer and better. I thought this was poorly written. The misunderstandings concluded in a pretty good note. 'Individual Circumstances' is the perfect title of this series.

This is plain in all aspects but the perfect balance made this worth the risk. The matching beautiful soundtrack and fantastic cinematography blend to give off the best emotional scenes I've ever watched. Simplicity wins. I like how they end this in a mellow yet lovely tone.

Overall, I am very satisfied watching this. Watchable. Decent. Mellow.

(Does touching lips give love affection? They could have just fake-kissed to be more romantic.)
