1) The Chemistry Between Hye Jin and Du Sik

I honestly loved that the director them be friends before they realized they had feelings for each other. Some would say that they were friends and some would beg to differ (haha) mainly because they had a lot of banter, but I personally think that was their way of showing their care for each other.

2) The community of GongJin

I think if I wanted to live in a community, I would choose to live in GongJin even though it's the countryside/suburb. The people of the community had so much story and background that it makes you grow to love each and other character despite their baggage and past. I think watching this drama really showed me that everyone goes through their own trouble and under all of it is just someone who wants to be heard and loved.

3) Their cute moments

Despite how CRINGE these moments were, I really did think they were cute. LOOK AT THIS DIMPLEs. How could you not smile at them!?

4) When the entire community thought they were dating when they weren't yet

This just reminded me of all the nosy aunties and uncles that ask when you have a boyfriend when they come over for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner >.<

and then when Du Sik had to act like he was Hye Jin's boyfriend for the day in front of her parents (hahahahah).

Don't get me wrong, her Sunbae was also super nice but I didn't get 2nd lead syndrome that much in this drama.

5) Their engagement scene

Legit when Du Sik said "no" and Hye Jin was like "... what do you mean no?"

But he was actually going to propose on his terms that day too LOL

6) Their Wedding Photos

I loved that they wanted to take photos on their own without the entire community behind the camera or watching them. They made their relationship truly about them and I'm so glad that Du Sik was about to find his own person that he could rely on.

7) The Grandma

Words can't describe how attached I got to this grandma. She was such a pivotal character in the drama because she was there for Du Sik when he was about to commit suicide, and when everyone in town had turned their back against him she was the only one who brought food to his door everyday. She was such a kind soul and not gonna lie, it kinda reminded me of my own grandma.

I think the directors did a beautiful job making the story come full circle because if I remember in the beginning of the drama, the grandma had said that she'd be there for Du Sik until he found his own person. And once Du Sik had reconciled with Hye Jin, the grandma passed away peacefully in her sleep :(
