Come and Hug Me

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.

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.

It's heartbreaking, emotional, suspenseful, and romantic all rolled in one. It's one of the top best Korean dramas.

Good plot, but far too many repeated shots of the past...

I mostly liked the series, and I appreciate how hard and well the actors worked. Well done. My problem is with the writing, which for me is uneven and too often filled with gaffes. Major issue 1: No criminal, much less a serial killer, will be allowed to go anywhere without handcuffs, much less be allowed to attack visitors or escape. The fact this resulted in horror just makes the stupidity that much worse. It happens too many times to the point of silliness. Issue 2: JKY is a beautiful, talented actor, yet he is often reduced to long, boring scenes of staring at people, especially JKJ's lovely character. The child actor had to do the same. That might be touching for a bit, but it was used to the point of annoyance. I bet if we pulled those scenes, they would constitute a couple of episodes of staring adoringly. The actors deserved better scripts. Frankly, there is just too much repetition: this could have been a shorter series or even a movie.

It's very well written series , beautiful layout of story and direction .spot on emotional and action scenes BUT I felt there was lack of chemistry between 2 main characters .their childhood characters are amazing and those kids act perfectly their role but sooner 2 character meet in adult life ,you will feel lack of chemistry between them .
