Okay, so it’s only 13 episodes, each one lasting about 50 or so minutes. Overall I liked the drama, but it was filled with holes, and unexplored relationships. I always, but rarely get answers to why parents abandon their children, or why they become so consumed with their own wants and needs that they don’t take the time to think of their children’s needs? I also dislike cowardly behavior on the part of either or both of the protagonists, once their love has been firmly established. I completely understand the heroine’s concerns based on her Mom’s previous behavior, but that’s ultimately no excuse to turn down “true” love.

Neither protagonist is guiltless here nor can one be blamed more than the other for the bumps in their road to romance. Outside factors also play a role, and honestly, it would’ve been completely boring without those “factors.” Problem here, for me, is that the overall story wasn’t very well thought out or written. There are endless, and I do mean endless flashbacks in the last few or so episodes. That tells me that there was really no where else to go with this story until the couple finds their way back to one another, and even then, there were still flashbacks…

Disappointed that a couple of other relationships weren’t explored to their fullest—-I think if they had put more of their focus there, the flashbacks wouldn’t have been so prominent. I did like this couple, though, and I could look at him all day, and in my dreams too, lol.
So ladies, I would love to get your take on this one, but it’s definitely not a “rush.”
