Seo Joo-Won (Lee Ki-Woo) is the son of the architect who was part of the construction crew that caused the accident. When these 3 individuals meet will they be able to move on from the past and continue to drown from it?



REACTION:‌ ‌ ‌(Times Watched: 2)
This was the first Korean Melodrama that I watched and I must say that it truly lived up to its genre.
It had me going through so many emotions that I didn’t think that I was going to make it to the end.
The drama uses a lot of flashbacks which was a cool aspect because as the story continued the
flashbacks were there to throw another curve ball at you. 

The way that the 3 main characters' stories are tied together made the drama 100% more interesting.
This is the kind of drama that you have to watch and pay attention to because if you miss one
second of it you are either going to be completely lost or not ready for the emotions that are going
to hit you.

This was a drama that was very serious but also very loving. You will automatically fall in love
with all of the characters and the story.

*Disclaimer: It is a very tragic story so just be prepared to have your emotions rocked


HIGHLY‌ ‌RECOMMEND‌ ‌TO:‌ ‌ ‌
  • Any one who is a fan of 2PM
  • Anyone who likes a show with a lot of emotions
  • Anyone who likes to know the past of the characters in the show
  • Anyone who likes a cute love story
  • Anyone who has or wants to meet an old friend from their childhood

FAVORITE‌ ‌SONG‌ ‌FROM‌ ‌OST:‌ ‌ ‌
Now you can’t have a melodrama without a dramatic OST to go with it. This OST is for the most
part relaxing but will definitely put you in your feelings. The soft ballads really make you want to
cry, love and be happy.

“I’ll Be There” by Zitten is definitely one of those songs. The song begins very mellow with
Zitten’s soft voice, but as the song progresses more instruments join in with his emotional voice
and lyrics. Anytime this song played in the drama it definitely made me cry.



Honorable‌ ‌Mention:‌ ‌”Truelove” by Junho, “Just Between Lovers Title” by Elaine
