I put off watching this drama for a long time and I must say, I really didn’t care for it. It was very silly at times and the male lead got on my last nerve–too childish and self absorbed. At times he was down right mean. I had to call it quits after episode 6. I couldn’t muster the energy to continue watching.

This is not the usual rom com drama where cute handsome guys meet pretty pitiful girls looking for love. Nor is it a melodrama that tries to squeeze every single teardrop from its viewers– like OTPs who not only suffer from a handicap (physical or mental) but also cheated by their lovers, abandoned by their parents and then suffered and died through terminal illnesses. This drama is not for you if you are looking stories along this line.
TK2H is actually about the union of NK and SK. It is trying to tell us the many issues that have to be overcome by both sides before they can be united as one. Some of the subjects covered seem so ridiculous but are they? The SNSD fight appears so trivial to start a war but daily news do tell us that its insignificant incident like this that had led to deadly consequences. The two OTPs represent the two countries and not just two individuals from extremely different family background. Many of us are not into political stuff but the subject discussed here gives us some insight as to how international affairs are handled. Hence, you will appreciate TK2H more if you have the ongoing NK/SK conflicts in mind while watching it. It’s a great piece contributed very well by all concerned, writer, director and off course the actors.
