Reviews and Reactions
I would say that this is the perfect ending for this drama. They didn't see the sunrise on their first try. Finally, they saw it during the end scene. A lot of misfortunes happened, but they endured and made things possible.
Bidding farewell to another fun and comforting drama. I truly enjoyed watching these characters' warm stories. This one will always remain close to my heart.
Words cannot describe how much I love this show. It's a definition of comfort and warmth. The biggest thank you to Hyung Sik and Shin Hye for bringing our Jeong Woo and Ha Neul to life. I will miss my babies so much.
