Overall, this was not -so- bad, and it was an entertaining way to waste some time, but unless you are a diehard Cassie or are just curious about DBSK, there are probably better things to watch out there.

Some people may have issues with the pacing, since even though it is a murder mystery suspense, the bulk of the drama is kind of slice-of-life office life. However, the show is so fun and well-done that this did not bother me, personally. The only thing that seemed a bit off was the inevitable romance arc, but it certainly wasn't the focus of the show.
If you are looking for an all around wonderful drama that is different from your usual drama fare, this would be the perfect one to add to your list!

The story is not too complicated-- city girl moves to farm for whatever reason, clashes with country boy at first but then learns to run a vineyard and they fall in love. However, the atmosphere really was so sweet and peaceful for the most part-- some might say it was boring, but I found it relaxing, and it allowed for more focus on character moments and developments.
Which, by the way, were very well played by the leads. Both YEH and OMS were excellent in their roles. YEH could be slightly annoying at times, but in a way that I found relatable -- I think most people would get a little whiny if they suddenly had to spend their entire day out working in a hot vineyard, right? And most of the time, I found her to be quite sweet and cute. OMS was just perfect in this role-- right on the nose as a low key, nice guy who is adorably earnest and hardworking. I totally fell for him in this role :) The supporting cast was nice, too, in the sense that it really felt like the entire village was a family. The other two leads were a bit annoying at times, but they were nowhere near as bad as many dramas.
The music was fun at times ( I think mid-2000s dramas have a very distinctive music style) and some of the songs were very pretty, which added to the peaceful, romantic feel of the drama.
I don't hardly EVER rematch dramas because I find that the annoying parts ( obnoxious second leads, stupids cliches or plot devices, etc) outweigh the cute moments. However, this drama was really light on those annoying bits, and heavy on the sweet, so I will likely watch this again someday.
I really recommend this drama if you like cute, sweet romances and are looking for a more relaxed drama! It was really very lovely, and I hope you won't be disappointed.

Acting and music were both fine. I appreciated how similar the younger and older version of them main character --they did a good job making me believe they were just different versions of the same person.
I don't rewatch often so I doubt I'll rewatch it, but it was enjoyable enough that someone might want to. Really the take-home part of this story was the sweetness of the relationship between the main character and her younger self, along with the universal message of living for the future. Those alone make it work the watch.
