• I loved that the story wasn’t overly dramatic but instead very realistic.
• The romance was so heartfelt, it made me wonder if such a beautiful romance could actually exist in real life, I hope it does.
• Song Hye Kyo and Park Bo Gum are very natural in their acting and handles their roles with ease.
