During this time ten years ago, a K-drama couple made our hearts go dugun-dugun with their blossoming romance inside the beautiful Sanggojae.

It's a bittersweet ending to a love story we all came to cherish, and even though this romance was slow-paced and not everyone's cup of tea, I think the drama's final episode gave its audience a decent portrayal of fighting for one's passionate love.

What I love about this penultimate episode was the rawness of Joon-hee (Jung Hae-in) and Jin-a's (Son Ye-jin) characters. The break-up was inevitable, and it made them grow as better individuals, and even though their most recent meeting is a very unpleasant one, what's important is that Joon-hee is now home and ready to take…

I'm proud of Seung-ho (Wi Ha-joon) in this episode. Though I don't totally agree with the way he yelled at his mom, I can understand where he was coming from. He feels suffocated doing things he doesn't want just to please his mother. He spent his days making sure that he would meet the high…

The monster mom is on a roll... ruining our mood with her mere presence! Even though she finally revealed her true self in front of Joon-hee (Jung Hae-in), I would always prefer her doing that instead of acting all goody two shoes "trying to protect you as my own son" front act. I can't even…
