The best, purest representation of love shown in a K-Drama

i finished this in one setting- didn't see it while it was airing- really pulled an all nighter spent 16 hours in the diary pages of na heedo, witnessing her youth. and let me tell you what i think.

it was beautiful, nostalgic, heart wrenching and so fucking real i still tear up seeing baek yijin's face because he made the show for me. do not misunderstand heedo definitely is up on my list of best female protagonists ever, i love her to bits but baek yijin. baek yi jin. BAEK YI JIN. the literal definition of comfort, soulmate, love. he loved so purely so deeply so unconditionly and maybe that's why it hurt so much. it feels like i've let go of the love of my life, my first love. but sometimes letting go is the only answer and this is what these two characters- these characters who had the best representation of selfless, unconditional love ever shown on kdrama- did. they couldn't ask the other person compromise themselves just for their love just for their happiness. from the beginning they were each others biggest supporters, rooted for each other going to great lengths just to make things workout for the other person. and maybe that's why they realised the only way things will workout in their lives for a better future was by letting each other go.

sometimes the greatest love you'll ever have is just their to teach you what it truly means to love. and i think if you get to experience even momentarily(21, 25) then consider yourself lucky. na heedo and baek yijin's love was like that. the once in a lifetime kind of love. and im glad they will always get to cherish that time period of their lives in their memories for as long as they live. and i will too cherish these 16+ hours spent of my life witnessing a great love.
