I too find this drama to be the best among drama that I have seen. Actually I posted a link on my twitter as it is my favorite by far. The selection of artists is in my humble opinion one of the best in any TV drama or movie I’ve watched in any language! They carried the storyline until the end. This is one drama I did not jump to the last two episodes to decide if I wanted to continue watching. I watched all the episodes in one sitting over a week end.Soo Ae was great and so real. She made me cry, feeling her pain and frustrations… yes she is very well matched with Kim RW. Their acting was so real that I forgot it was a TV drama. The topic at hand is not an easy one to watch and yes it is sad, sad, sad. But I prefer social universal issues even sad story lines to a no brain entertainment. I wish we have more of these yet to come!
Thanks for portraying Alzheimers with such grace and dignity. I hope it increased watchers awareness to the deadly disease! Thanks for this drama. I am sure I will watch it several times and each time will get to appreciate the fine acting even more.

A very GREAT Drama … the icing of the cake KRW and SA ….a perfect match to a perfect storyline….really moves my heart… strongly recommended if you do watch this drama be prepare of a box of tissue beside you!
The are some episodes that even though in the scene they are not crying but YOU will “CRY alone” because you can feel the deep emotions on thier acting so real …..1) when Park Ji HYung (KRW) was asked by his father to move out in the house and bring nothing except a few personal belongings. 2) when Lee Seo Yeon ( SA) meets his mother and telling her that she has a dementia. 3) when Park Ji Hyung really cried out his feeling of guilt when his wife got an accident while left at home alone. 4) when she gave birth to thier son. 5) and the last 3 episodes whoooaaa really amazing acting! thumbs up to all casts…. special mention to SA aunt and KRW mother … very very good acting!!! Strongly recommended drama!

P>S>…. Congratulations to the director and screenwriter too! A well researched storyline that really based on reality. The behavioral character and the responses of the people around is so real. The Events, Acts, Environments of an alzhiemer’s patient is really close to reality!…. You gave not only entertainment on this drama but also an enlightenment of how this AD affects the individual , the family and the people around it… and how to handle this kind of situation. JOB WELL DONE. Choghahamneda!

Really a good drama. This is the first time which the rates are high and the same time is a good drama. it make you feel that you really inside the drama and let you live the moment. and this is the first drama I can’t guess what could happen after. But, what I didn’t like is that how each episode ends, it doesn’t make you excited for the next episode. They should cut it in an excited moment, which will make us so excited to watch the second episode after it.

I saw this film a while back and I did not sympathize with Su Ae. I am currently watching Athena Godess of War and I did not like the character that plays the double agent. Come to find out it’s the same actress and I still don’t like her!!!

I think if Lee Sang Woo played as Park Ji Hyung
to match w/ Lee Seo Yeon
it would get more tears … for some actors/actress whose their face really tell without using word, it’s a change, but also talent (givenen gift from G ?) LSY has that thing while perform his role. It’s a good drama, but it just make me feel misplaced charactor.

must watch ^____^

Really didn’t like the actress Su Ae. She over acted her role and was rather annoying. I liked the main actor tough. He had to suffer a lot because of her. I wouldn’t have….
