The best kdrama to watch to unwind at the end of the day
It’s short, concise, cute and warm. We like it. The story wasn’t forced, felt very natural; I’m extremely glad that the writer didn’t drag the story to make it longer with a mountain of misunderstandings like others do. I mainly watched this to unwind at the end of the day after studying 12 hours and let me tell you it’s been literally a hug before sleeping. I really really recommend this if you’re into short friends-to-lovers stories <3The music was chef’s kiss, i feel like I’ll be listening to the OST on loop on Spotify just to remember and feel the cozy vibes of this drama. Thank you directors!

I almost did not recognize Park Hyung Sik from SWDBS as he broods quietly on the sideline, while Song Hye Kyo's doppelganger Han So Hee is decent as the object of his affections. I also liked the fact that the production team used music and imagery to reflect the different stages of the MCs' relationship. Alternatively, this isn't a drama that needed a whole thesis deconstructing the plot devices or in person narratives due to its short length. It is meant to be enjoyed as it is, a bittersweet journey of two people finally finding love after two decades.

Short, Sweet and Heartwarming: A True Best Friends to Lovers
I did not expect this story to be this good.The credit goes to the whole team who worked on this drama. The acting, the music, the likeable and mature characters, the heartwarming atmosphere are all the reasons I recommend this kdrama to anyone who just want to relax and watch a sweet kdrama.
I really love the main leads. Their friendship which always had that love is just too sweet and the supporting characters are also surprisingly well done.
A Short story when done right can manage to get everything just right and this kdrama is one such story.

Wholesome
I just love it - it is to watch and watch again. Feel good, short and sweet and wholesome drama with a clear theme developing through the 4 episodes. Well suited casting for roles and support roles- believable characters were their silences meant 1000 words. Heartfelt mini series with relevant music and titles for each episodes. I wish I could have seen more of them - main characters, however in 4 episodes, the writers, director and actors succeeded to brilliantly bring up to life this unrequited love theme drama. I would recommend this mini-series as a healing, optimistic and satisfying drama.Cet avis était-il utile?

Most Rewatchable Drama There Is!
I don't like to complain about clichés, rather if those clichés were used properly to begin with. The writing, acting, chemistry, OST, visuals and camera work are some of the best I have seen on the small screen or big screen! The leads did a phenomenal job of bringing the characters to life. You truly feel real empathy for Sun Woo and Eun Soo. The love story was extremely realistic, pure and sensitive.I may be biased since I love the season, but being set in Winter gave the show an element of warmth that other seasons wouldn't have been able to. You simply want the two main characters to embrace each other when the climate is the most harsh outdoors.
Praise should also be directed at the secondary storyline of following one's dreams. They perfectly managed to inspire me to work hard for my dreams and to also uplift and support those around me with huge goals as well.
My only complaints are that we have no idea where Sun Woo's tarot card ended up and that Eun Soo's mother was never on camera for us to see how she reacted to the news of them ending up together. I loved the mom after completely saving Sun Woo from an embarrassing moment earlier in the show. It was the perfect way to teach the viewers a lesson in being considerate.
I highly recommend this to everyone! It being only 4 episodes gives this show a unique charm, plus it aids in boosting it's rewatchability and how it can be a great recommendation for a friend who might be new to k-dramas but doesn't want to invest time into a 12-16 episode show. Enjoy!

Short and smooth
Soundtrack#1 centered around two main characters and the story unfolds through their interactions with each other(and side characters). There is nothing new, but this is my kind of drama if executed properly. I like that despite its short time, the story is at consistent pace and they dont end it abruptlyNow, I will focus to talk about the main characters
Sun Woo: Introverted male lead who has a crush with his bff for long time, this drama proves me that PHS really the best choice to potray character who secretly in love with someone, i mean HIS EYES really convey the emotions without speak it loud
Eun Soo: Extroverted female lead who is noisy and tend to (but not always) speaks her mind. At first, i doubt HSH would pull off this character given her cold appearance, but her cold image giving her childish little sister vibe rather than spoiled girl friend that we used to seeing in drama that using friends to lovers trope, so it gives me fresh take on this kind of drama
Side characters: here i won’t talk side characters in detail since this drama focused on the main leads, but side characters are decent, there is no one who overly annoying
Music: while this drama has music theme in it, i dont find any soundtrack here memorable
Rewatch value: i think i would rewatch this soon

A Short Sweet Drama
The synopsis tells you everything. Friends to Lovers trope. You know how it's gonna go. It is a feel-good drama, one that I would definitely watch again. I watched this because of Park Hyung Shik (I was impressed with his performance in Happiness) and because it was short drama. What I really end up liking was the execution and simple closure to the drama.It could have easily been made into a movie but I am not complaining. Music was great. There's not much depth to the characters or story.

Short and sweet, with a touch of yearning
Two things drew me to this drama: 1) It was a short four episodes. I was feeling the need for a break from the bloated, drawn-out dramas. 2) Park Hyung Sik.Park Hyung Sik as Han Sun Woo was excellent. He's got that yearning for love thing on lock (he did this really well in Strong Woman Do Bong Soon). He didn't make it obvious immediately to us as the audience, so you could somewhat understand the FL not seeing it. The brevity of the story kept me from feeling that the FL was an idiot not to see his love. We also didn't have to sit through multiple extra storylines that are used as filler.
Though the plot line they developed for them to be living in the same space didn't work for me (how in the world was he, a photographer, supposed to help her write lyrics?), I LOVED his addition to her lyrics at the end, but I just wish the ending hadn't been so abrupt. We didn't get to enjoy them as a couple at all, really.
I liked her mother and her tarot cards. That she could see what was going on, and her reaction to it, was so cute, and just added to the cluelessness of the FL.
This show wasn't anything groundbreaking, but it was good for an evening's easy entertainment.

Encantador
Foi etremamente agradável de assistir este show, me encontrei conectada desde os primeiros minutos deste mini drama, ele consegue entregar muita coisa em pouco tempo , eu achei que não iria gostar pois Nosso Eteno Verão foi bem cansativo para mim na realidade foi uma decepção e esse drama foi ao contrario,aqui tive uma alegre surpresa, fiquei presa dentro deste drama, achei tudo tão equilibrado, tudo fluiu muito bem a história foi bem feita e sem enrolação, a fotografia era boa e a ost mais ainda.Um drama leve, suave de processar , parecia que estava lendo um bom livro, o progresso do romance entres os protagonistas foi o melhor de assistir, adorei eles por sinal eram maduros, sensiveis gostei bastante dos dois.
Em fim eu apreciei muito assistir esse drama e com certeza eu recomendo que você assista para tirar suas própias conclusões.

Short and sweet Friends-to-Lovers Trope
Friends-to-Lovers is one of the more popular tropes and one of my favorites as well. When I first saw Park Hyung Sik after not seeing him in a while, my first impression is, 'He's so adorable!'. This feeling continues on throughout the drama. His character is sweet and caring, and you can't help but fall in love with him and root for him.Han So Hee on the other hand is as beautiful as she can be. Her character, Eun Soo, is a lot more outgoing, to contrast the more conservative side of Park Hyung Sik's character, Sun Woo. But I can't help but think that she overacts a little.
The two have good chemistry together as friends, but I do feel it lacking a little in the unrequited love department. I think Sun Woo's shy and sweet personality conveys the unrequited love a little better. Eun Soo's struggles don't move me as much.
As other reviewers mentioned, this short drama boasts a pretty large collection of songs in its OST. They all sound pretty nice to me, but because there are so many, I did not get attached to any song. The songs all give a very similar feel and sound the same to me.
The plot is simple and nothing new. If you enjoy watching two friends slowly discovering that they have feelings for each other, this is a good and quick watch. The visuals are great and the cold winter adds an additional charm to the story.
Completed: 10/23/2022
