This drama left a lot of feelings in my heart for all the characters and there were many times I really disliked Shim Bo Ni but ride it out and you'll come out feeling good about everything. I think some people were expecting something really spicy because of the whole 'seduction' arc, but it's really just a good story about Shim Bo Ni overcoming some crippling self-doubt, self-loathing and self-pity to become a better person. There's a lot of amazing (and not so subtle) metaphors re: faith and religion, but I love that it never strays for the original intention, that is to make Shim Bo Ni a better character.

Re-reading some of my comments that I left along the way on each episode revealed to me how good of a job they did with evoking the feels for Shim Bo Ni (and Je Soo Ho) - especially the part where I thought they were toxic for each other and it is only now, after completing the series that I see that it was fully intentional. The side characters had gratifying stories and wrap up really well too. All in all, I 100% recommend this show if you're looking for something heartwarming, feel good and just an overall solid romedy drama.
