7/10
Good Enough
24 April 2020
" I'll go to you when the weather is nice " was like reading a slice of life book.

The setting was perfect, with the winter scenery, the rural area, the forest and the small town with the cozy bookstore. The drama worked with the light really well and kept that rustic, authentic appeal till the very ending. The pace was relaxing, as well, slow and perfect, even though the family drama was intense. The latter was introduced slowly too, with a few scenes here and there to keep things interesting till the ultimate climax. The portray of the emotions of the characters then was just spot on, as they didn't overdo it with the understanding and their reactions. Rather, they were ordinary humans who react selfishly, awkwardly and disappointingly. The drama also followed not only the two main leads, but their families and friends' stories as well. Especially the story of the aunt was pretty great. Finally, the romance was good, not too intense and just right for the mood of the drama.

However, the drama had some boring moments, especially towards the ending, when it felt like they were trying to fill in the gaps between the actual action. Still, the performances were great from everyone, as it is expected from a stellar cast (at a point it felt like a Extraordinary you reunion ha ha), and the drama did feel like it is a book adaption.

So, overall, seven out of ten.
