Wow. Just wow. What can I say? This is definitely unlike any k-drama I've ever watched, and it truly a work of art. Before I start, let me just say that the cast/crew really put their heart into this production. The attention to detail is incredible! I highly recommend watching the 2 special episodes after the show; it reveals just how much thought went into each aspect of production. Amazing! Starting with the characters: they are so complex, and multi-dimensional. It's amazing to see the character arcs and development, with some going from people you cannot stand, to people you're genuinely rooting for. You get to see some characters learn and grow from their decisions, and it's done in a really authentic, and natural way, with lots of self-reflection. Others never really learn but, as I said, this is authentic to real life. Some people genuinely believe everyone around them is at fault, and they never take accountability for their own actions-- I think it's called a "narcissistic personality", but I digress. These characters were really interesting to watch, and their "logic" for why they did what they did was equal parts entertaining and infuriating. Lastly, the overall plot and the way everything unfolded was beautiful. I've never been in a relationship, let alone married, but this show gave me an insight into what goes into a relationship. This show sheds light on something that is always exemplified as between 2 people. It shows that one relationship can actually affect countless people: the kids, family, friends, and work. Seriously complicated. All in all, this review is just the tip of the iceberg, and there's no way I could fully express the frustration, sadness (there were lots of tears), or happiness I felt during each episode of the show. Honestly, you'll just have to watch it yourself to get what I mean. It starts off fast, so from the first episode, you'll be hooked! Happy watching! And if you made it to the end of all that, here's a cookie loll 🍪

Such a lovely drama. This is what I imagine real love to be like. Everything won't be perfect 100% of the time, and sometimes you see the worst in each other, but once you experience the alternative (not being in each other's lives), you realize the grass isn't always greener on the other side. Them choosing each other even after living different lives is a lesson in itself. Love is a choice, and you can only follow your heart even if you know there's a chance things might not turn out how you want. Love is deciding to experience the ups and downs of life with your person, and realizing things may change but it's up to you to keep the spark alive. I loved this drama... The ending alone was so peaceful and I felt so serene watching everything unfold. I guess that's what true love should look like: it makes you feel comfortable and calm watching it. The actors really did their characters justice! And the self-reflection and accountability the characters showed were amazing. This show will definitely leave you feeling warm and fuzzy. Plus the OST is equally beautiful. I highly recommend it. Happy watching!! :)

Amazing drama! I dont usually watch k-dramas that are over 18 or 20 episodes, and I definitely haven't watched any shows that seem kind of like a soap opera, so this was really new for me. But when I tell you EACH and EVERY episode (and there are 52 episodes) kept me interested and on the edge of my seat, I mean it. It's easily in my top 5 favorite k-dramas. It may be a long story-- which I'm sure will bug you at first if you're impatient and like quick love stories/happy endings-- but the story is so beautifully crafted, and draws you in to the point you feel like you're part of the family. You'll be rooting for each family member, and hoping they get their life together, that you won't even notice the length of the show... you'll just want to see what happens next. So trust me and do yourself the favor of watching. You won't regret it. :) Side note: I'm a sucker for OSTs and a show's soundtrack is pretty important for me. So if you're the same, get ready because some of the songs really get you in your feels. You've been warned lolll
