A very unique and interesting experience

The story was very unique for me. It was not like other dramas at all. In some scenes based on music and experience as a drama watcher you expect something huge to happen but nothing special happens, and there are scenes that something important happens out of the blue, which by the way, were very lacking in music.
The story was consistent and slow, but fulfilling for me. some characters behaved a little illogical sometimes, however in my opinion it was interesting because it made the show more realistic.
In total the series was very interesting for me and had many unexpected happenings, The story surprises you and is sometimes irrational and some scenes don' have any apparent lesson or guidance to offer and are seemingly redundant, which is very refreshing for me. I believe this is a unique flavor that I only encountered in some Korean movies and for the first time in a drama here.
Finally I believe the story is trying to convey just one important message, and that is:
"Don't doubtlessly believe in something"
And it is very in sync with my personal belief. Unfortunately we see the opposite point of view in most of the people around the world, which is the main cause of many conflicts globally, despite the modern era. My favorite quotation which describes this message perfectly is:
"Before having faith be a servant of doubt"

This drama is one of the best dramas I have ever seen. I personally prefer thriller, crime and action drama. Therefore, for romance it should be very good to catch my fancy, and above that it should be an epic to make me write a review praising it. This drama is one of those.
Firstly, acting is superb and either of the male or female leads are specially great and bring forward their persona completely, either in their facial expressions or their dialog they build characters that the viewers can connect with. The male lead is a very talented and known actor that does not need much introduction but what surprised me was the acting of the female lead. It was breathtaking. The personality of the female lead and her acting is so strong that in the most scenes her role feels more important to me than the male lead. Sometimes the acting of an actor or actress is so natural that you feel like they were born to take that role and no one will be able to do better; this was one of those times.
secondly, direction is good and the flow of the story is always appealing.
thirdly, music complements the dialog and events completely. Specially in important scenes music is like a third dialog that helps transfer more emotions and meaning and completes the scene.
As for the rewatch value I would say definitely and without doubt. Actually I believe this drama is gonna be one of the classics in a few years.
The only complaint that I have about the drama is the logic problems in the story. maybe it is a problem with the webtoon and not the drama itself, but never the less it exists. Some events seem too far-fetched to occur in real life which make the story feel like a fantasy and something that is never gonna happen. I'm specially talking about the phase of development for the male lead and his teem. Another matter is that in some specially important scenes, the reaction of the characters to someone or some events are unrealistic and sometimes too strong, it seems that they react in this way just to make story move forward and make something -usually romantic- happen between the characters.
