Words to describe this drama: Tender, relatable, inspiring.
I think this is one of the best K-dramas ever. The fact that the experiences these youths go through are the main focus of the drama, and that the viewers, even when they are from a different country and era, can identify with them is so incredible. And the romance is not left behind. The way the love between Hee-do and Yi-jin develops is so tender and warm, which makes it so appealing. The situations in every episode make you reflect upon yourself and your own experiences in life, even if you haven't had that many. The way these teens deal with their troubles and dreams is so inspiring too. This drama is just perfect.
