Too long for content

Warning: Spoilers
This was a nice enough romance - a guy and a girl have a one-night stand and then she disappears for three years. They meet again when she gets a job at his company and his interest in her revives. The two leads had good chemistry and the acting was ok. The problem with it was that it took too long to get going and then the constant wide-eyed surprise of the heroine got somewhat tedious - not to mention the hiccups which have been done several times before.

The scene in the beginning in the car on the beach - I have to ask - do Korean productions employ make-up artists? The FL's lipstick was ludicrous - No lipstick on the cupid's bow and just a smear on the inside of the bottom lip - Is this a fashion in Korea?

The beach scene was pretty risqué for a Kdrama.

I found it odd that a bunch of women would approach a parked car on the beach - nobody approaches what is obviously a private space that very likely is being used by a courting couple. No explanation as to why she took his clothes as well as her own.

There are the requisite rivals for this couple - the female is particularly dislikeable - the ML said he wished she would grow up - she should have been locked up with that attitude. There are the usual wrong assumptions and misunderstandings that drive the plot along. I have to mention the kissing scene at the swimming pool - this guy - Sung Hoon - is one of the best kissers I have ever seen - it is worth watching just for him.

For me the worst bit was when we are near the end and there is yet another delay in their final getting together - it was beyond irritating.

Ten episodes would have been plenty for this story.
