One word..it's "nostalgic"!
11 September 2021
I felt constantly warm and comforted by the bond between 3 beautiful personalities.

It simply happened because of the seamless writing, talented cast, their awesome acting, mesmerizing music and phenomenal cinematography.

I understand now why this drama reaped several awards. It deserves everything.

The plot: Its the story of hope.

This drama depicts the 1930s Japanese Occupation in South Korea and how the brave freedom fighters stood up in order to regain their country's democracy.

For me it started slow. But as the story progressed (around episode 5) I got attached to it and I found myself glued the whole time.

Acting: =Im Soo Jung: The female lead is one of my all time female leads, because in my opinion she's authentically fierce and interesting.

=Yoo Ah In: It was my first time seeing Yoo Ah In. I am mesmerized by his expressions and lips movements. A top notch actor. Need to explore his work more.

= Go Kyung Pyo: I loved his character and his struggle. He is so nice that you will fall in love with him.

OST: Emotional scenes make you emotional because of the amazing background scored and 2 beauuutiful OST!

Why you should watch it: For the amazingly amazing trio, the characters and their development, the romance and friendships, the lessons they teach about life.

All in all, this drama needs to be seen and be appreciated by the generation of today. This generation should know how our freedom fighters have sacrificed everything to give us a liberated country.

This drama is about discovering your past, but it wants you to live in the moment. "Carpe Diem".
