9/10
Modern romance, but with complications, builds slowly, but worth your time..

This is bit different than most K-dramas you'll see, as there is very little humor, and the awkwardness feels realistic. A young man & woman meet by chance, and share an immediate connection, yet try to ignore it. Both have complicated circumstances, (including a boyfriend for her) yet fate keeps bringing them into contact with each other, til they agree to be friends.

It's not exactly smooth sailing, and many obstacles along the way, but it's an interesting look at two people who have their reasons to have given up on true love & idea of a soulmate, yet that desire is find these things is awakened. That's all I can say without spoiling anything, but worth your time!

One interesting note, is that the director and half of the cast in this series are directly from "Something in the Rain", if you happened to have seen that one on Netflix. I did and enjoyed that one as well, and to be honest, it took me a little while to get used to all of these actors I knew so well as different characters from that drama in this new story. But, once I did, it felt strangely comfortable and I got used to seeing them as someone else.

Anyway, If you are used to American mini-series, it takes some getting used to most k-dramas that take their time building their story, but once you've gotten deep into the story by episode 5 or 6, you'll appreciate the slower pace.
