This was an outstanding drama, from the cinematography to the music to the acting and writing. The story is an unusual one in that a serial murderer is one of the central characters. The actor who plays that murderer deserves the Korean equivalent of the Emmy for playing that character. He does such an outstanding job that it is hard to believe it is just acting. The main male leads, both the teenage version and the adult versions, wonderfully portray the tortured son swallowing the heartache he feels for being a murderer's son and wondering if he too may be like him. It's hard not to shed tears for him and what he had to endure.
I went in expecting a tragic ending in this show. I really did. The way it started off and the flashbacks and then about his father I really expected a sad ending. But thankfully it had a happy ending and that made it worth watching. Loved the two main characters, especially the actors who portrayed them as teens. They all did very well. The actor who played his father did fantastic, like omg, he seriously creeped me out throughout the entire series! The flashbacks were a little much but bear with it, trust me it's worth it. I highly recommend this series.
I think this one is a tad overrated.
I love the beginning ( the young actors do a fantastic job as well) The story is very compelling and you want to see what happens in the present to the main couple.
The problem is the script, the dialogues repeat themselves over an over, I mean I literally lost count the amount of times the only conversation the main couple had was , are you okay? I am okay, let me know if you are not okay.... Im not sure what the writer was thinking.... The potential this story had....
Then the fact that the whole show is based on a continuous guilt trip situation, where every character is sorry for things they didn't do. I just don't know if this is actually a thing in South Korea but for me it doesn't make any sense so I felt very frustrated watching this at many times.
The acting is superb though. ( Seo Jeong-yeon was just amazing in this))

Come and hug me has you from the first few minutes of the very first episode. The whole drama brings up memories from the Just between lovers drama, as the plot about two people who had to overcome the same painful experiance and still be together is kind of the same. In this case the past that haunts the two characters and everyone around them is the father of the lead who is a serial killer. The story and its presentation are excellent and the whole atmosphere superb, as well as the performances. This drama has its way to make you cry, as it is packed with emotions and action scenes. However, towards the ending, it did got a bit tiring, but overall it was terribly good, so 8 out of 10.
First of all its not a romance but a love story. A painful yet soulful love story from teenage to adult.
An outstanding drama from the cinematography, to acting, to the story, to music and to the romance.
A very different story with a serial killer being the central character.
A story and torture of the Male lead being the son of the murderer and female lead being the daughter of the victims.
Story: An incredibly dark and sad story story but at the same time it gives you hope that no matter what life gives you, you still can be happy and have hopes of better future.
Acting: All the actors give their bestby portraying their character. Especially the male lead portrays both teenage and adult version deserve applauds. You can feel his torturous pain of being the son of the murderer and being afraid of him becoming like his father.
The teenage version of ML-Nam De Reum is an excellent actor. He has a long way to go.
For Jung Ki Yong- he dosen't need a dialogue, his eyes can speak. You can understand why he won BaekSang Arts Award for New Actor in 2018.
Villian: The villian was terrifying. He plays with your mind, he makes you exhausted. The evil smile can shatter your confidence. At one point it is hard to believe that its just acting.
Cinematography - I loved the settings, Cherry blossoms and house on the hills. There are some beautiful shots under the tree Even when there was eerieness, it was worth watching.
Jung Ki Yong in uniform.
There 1st meeting. Everything is just beautiful.
Dialogues: This drama has some beautiful dialogues which will be in your mind for a very long time.
My fav.one - "It was the only touch. The day we touched, it was as if the world turned into a paradise.
The time before I met her... was no longer part of my memory."
OST: Paradise tree by Jung Ki Yong is soulful and treat to ears.
People of this genre should try this genre. You will not be dissappointed.
PS: Don't miss any episode or scenes, Each episode had a purpose to the main story which makes this drama so well made.
