Let's say most of us are pretty skeptical to watch melodramatic genres, because the thought of the main protagonists going their separate ways is heartbreaking especially when we fall in love with the script and the drama..I had the same feeling whenever i used to see the trailer for Something in the rain..Even though i had the huge urge to watch it,i was troubled thinking that it might end sad.. Finally when i had the guts to watch it,it was 2020 and oh,boy im not disappointed!! Hae-in and Ye Jin portrayed their finest acting skills as the leads.It a lovestory that most of us wish to have in our life,and Hae-in successfully managed to pass each and every emotion he was feeling for his girl to us, spectators.
The story of how a 20 something year old guy,falls for his elder sister's best friend is something that is going to be in your heart for a long time. The strong guy who never gives upon his woman no matter what the circumstances are,be it the society judging them or their own families. Someone who reassures her,respects and understands his woman just how much she wants to be understood & respected. The journey of how he helps her to find strength and love in herself is so beautiful. The scenes are refreshing and not in the 'larger than life' spectrum. They are so realistic and subtle,which is something i loved.
Lastly along with the beautiful setting, cinematography,direction and the wonderful OST!!! this is a gem you do not want to miss. As someone who watches a lot of K dramas..this is one of the best romantic drama i have come across. You will fall in love with Jung Hae in and Ye Jin, guaranteed.. Happy Watching!!
