Life. This show got really popular when it was released. I was hesitant to watch it because I was too scared of what this show will bring me. I've seen a lot of reviews of it being a tearjerker and an actual pain to watch (because how sad it is) and took me a while to even click the first episode. But I finally had the guys and watched it and since then the ride begins, EVERY EPISODE HAD ME SOBBING LIKE A CHILD. Like there is not a single episode that had me on a straight face, every little thing makes me cry on this show because it's that relatable. Despite it being set in a provincial place, the way it tells the story about family, their struggles, even as an average person, every each of their moments HITS. Not a single scene have i ever said that it's not relatable. There's no villains (well i do hate Jun Young's mom), but it's just all about life, and that's why it's such a good show. You dont often find shows like these, where you can actually feel the worry of each character. The worry of a father, mother, daughter, son, neighbor, or even lover. Every scene feels so much close to home. This show is one of those show where you can't watch it the second time. I had multiple pauses because I couldn't handle how heavy it is and had to take breaks to mentally prepare myself for the next episode. But overall, it was not disappointing, it felt like I was also there living their lives and it was amazing. I truly loved this show and will never watch it again. It gave me a huge lesson in life. 1000/10 tearjerker
