I loved this show. Transformative for all of the characters. Isn't it a great story when the main characters evolve, become more human, etc?
The main character Go Nan-gil is played by Kim Young-Kwang, one of my favorite actors. A striking young man with a complicated, devastating back story. His smile is transformative & enchanting.
Soo Ae is an actress I have not seen before. She was excellent. Someone who is skeptical, sarcastic, and troubled turns into a woman who smiles, is giddy and dreams. She has been engaged for 9 years - why?
Lee SooHyuck is your not very friendly neighbor lawyer turned museum owner. Prickly, detached, critical, sarcastic but with a bruised heart.
Jo BoAh is fantastic as an interfering, coworker who covets Soo Ae's fiancee, played by Kim Ji Hoon, a very handsome guy. Woo Do-hwan and Kim Young-kwang are adopted brothers, but will their relationship survive or collapse?
This is a complicated story with many threads, but in the end, it's a love story, life-affirming good beats evil tale.
The chemistry between the leads is palpable. Dealing with their history, they are able to lay the truth bare, survive and prosper. A must watch.
