I'm honestly not at all a fan of the rom com genre. Well I wasn't until I started watching Korean Rom Drams. Beware they're addictive. This one particularly so.
Firstly, the male lead is absolutely fantastic. Totally charismatic. I defy you not to fall head over heels in love with him. The chemistry between him and the female lead is just perfect. That hand holding scene is just perfection. Chef's kiss!
There are claims that the second half of the series is less good than the first. I think the evil mum has much to do with people not being over enthused with it, but the actress's portrayal of toxic parenting Korean Conservative style was realistic, if not slightly over-egged. I will say that the ending felt slightly rushed... or was it that none of us wanted it to end? The series just gave us too many beautiful heartfelt moments.
The only negative was the constant playing of "Stand by your Man". Why play it over & over & over? As annoying as that was, it wasn't enough to make me mark it down to a 9.
I'll definitely watch this again sometime.
