General Thoughts:

Ohhhhh, this drama. What it could have been. What it wasn’t. What it was. What it should have been. I don’t even know where to begin with this show- it was so good for so long and then went downhill very far and very rapidly.

I can't even tell you how long it's taken to get this review done

Even though for most of its run the show was super sweet and fun, looking back I’m really struggling to remember what I enjoyed about it. Jung Hae In is an obvious point, and he was always on point. His acting is amazing, and this was no let down. Being a noona-slaying puppy suits him remarkably well, and his sweet smiles and come-hither eyes didn’t go to waste.

Spot on casting

More than being simply charming (which just comes naturally to that boy), Jung Hae In really nailed the troubles of a younger man. His playfulness worked wonders when he was charming his noona, but it was his heart-broken faces when Jin Ah was struggling and his subtly shaken confidence that really sold him as a young man trying to be man enough for an older woman. Son Ye Jin was brilliant too. All her emotions were very raw and real, and she completely sold the character. While I didn’t necessarily like Jin Ah all the time, or even understand her, Son Ye Jin convinced me that Jin Ah always believed what she was doing was right. I got annoyed at her, I got frustrated with her, but I never thought she was acting like an unrealistic person. Both Son Ye Jin and Jung Hae In were so in sync with their characters that it was very hard to separate the actors from the characters. They became Jin Ah and Joon Hee for those whole 16 episodes, and never once broke character. Every expression, action and reaction they made fit in perfectly with the idea of their character that I had developed in my head, as if these were two people I knew really well for quite a long time.

What I wouldn't give to actually have known that boy for a long time. Or a short time. Any time at all really.

The supporting cast were all excellent as well, with each of them giving authentic performances and making me believe that these characters were real, lived in people. Kil Hae Yoon and Jang So Yeon were particular standouts, with Kil Hae Yoon able to make me completely loathe her character, without ever coming across as a gimmicky villain or two-dimensional evil K-Drama mother.

I think we can all agree that Jin Ah wins the award for worst friend ever

Jang So Yeon completely stole my heart as Kyung Sun, Joon Hee’s lovely older sister, and for me was one of the most emotional aspects of the show. Jang So Yeon was perfect as the quirky best friend, reliable older sister, and finally the jilted sister-in-law. Jang So Yeon embodied Kyung Sun’s struggle with seeing her friend date her younger brother, and perfectly balanced her love for her friend and protectiveness of her sibling. The characters themselves were all written extremely well. While the actors definitely contributed a lot to bringing these characters to life, you can’t deny that they were written as very authentically flawed people. All the characters reacted in ways that an actual person might react, and that brought a great sense of realism to the show. The drama itself was pretty low on conflict, with most of the issues being based on the characters responses, actions, and interactions. This is both a good and a bad thing. It’s good in the way that it makes our characters seem like very real people and not simply figments of someone’s imagination, but it’s bad in that it usually means that one of our characters is the reason things are going pear shaped.

The two biggest causes of conflict right there

This worked well when the people of conflict existed outside of our main couple (eg. Mum, work colleges, crazy ex), but started becoming more problematic when the issue causing person was part of our main couple (eg. Jin Ah). This sort of conflict can work really well for a short period of time, such as in a short series or in a movie, but after an extended period of time it became a bit tiresome, and I was left wondering why our couple couldn’t just be relaxed and happy the way they were in the beginning.

If it ain't this cute, I don't wanna see it

The only other real conflict in the series was the sexual harassment plot going on in Jin Ah’s workplace. Which frankly confused the hell out of me. It seemed like the CEO was the one trying to get to the bottom of the issue and solve it once and for all, only to have him turn his back on the girls who spoke out about it halfway through. All the switching sides and lying and trying to get the better of each other could have made for an interesting and confronting topic, but as it was delegated to the back seat while Jin Ah and Joon Hee had their multiple falling outs, it didn’t really get the attention it was needing to be a properly fleshed out arc, so the conclusion was rushed and left me feeling completely baffled as to how it all got sorted out in the end. Seriously, I’m not kidding. I have literally no idea how that situation was resolved with Jin Ah getting a promotion. None. To put it simply, the writer was excellent at creating believable, emotional characters, but was poor at putting these characters into a story that was interesting, engaging, and didn’t make me want to punch them. 

What Was Great:

All That Love:

Something really magical was going on in the first half of this show. The leads had the kind of chemistry that left you with butterflies in your stomach and going to bed feeling high as a kite. The joy of a noona romance comes from the insecurity the age change makes in the male lead. Had he been interested in anyone else, Joon Hee would have just jumped right in, no questions asked.

I am insanely jealous

Something about seeing a smooth ladies man become riddled with uncertainty because the girl he likes is older is something that is always magic on screen. Then of course comes all the cute where the male lead acts adorable and very much like a donsaeng in order to get close and spend time with his noona.

I don't think anyone is oblivious to how good looking Jung Hae In is

Where I’ve found a couple of noona romances stumble, is that the noona tends to be completely oblivious to the fact that a handsome, albeit younger, guy is head over heels for her. What ‘Pretty Noona’ did really well is that Jin Ah was not oblivious to how attractive, charming, and downright wonderful Joon Hee was. She was put on guard by him being younger and a bit of a Casanova, but she didn’t ignore that he was an attractive man. Because let’s be real- no matter how old women get, we still know an good looking dude when we see one. And even Grandmas would look at Jung Hae In and know that was one fine piece of work. So the donsaeng-noona dynamic was there, but it was always undercut with a current of attraction. The attraction was just burdened by what their friends, family, and society would think. Things just got better and better when the romance actually kicked into gear, and I was loving every interaction between the leads. I cannot tell you how much I adored the scene where Jin Ah secretly grabbed Joon Hee’s hand under the table- I think that small confirmation was my favourite scene in the whole drama.

When they were cute they were very, very cute

When Joon Hee and Jin Ah were loved up, boy were they loved up. The chemistry between Jung Hae In and Son Ye Jin was absolutely explosive. It’s hard to believe that these two actors weren’t completely lost in adoration with each other the way their characters were (though who knows, maybe they were)- they just made the relationship so charming, so believable, and very, very steamy. When people tried to interfere (and by people I mean Mum), the two would retreat back into the sanctuary that was Joon Hee’s apartment and get totally lost in their own world, that we all wish we could get in to.

Pretty steamy for a K-Drama

The romance and the chemistry was the sort where you feel happy just watching- you don’t have to be a part of it, but there's something so delightful and pure about people just genuinely liking each other that much, that it becomes comforting just being in their presence. 

What Wasn’t:

The Whole Second Half:

So basically all that delicious, warm, wonderful stuff that the drama did in it’s first half that I mentioned above- yeah, there’s hardly any of that in the second half. Sure, the chemistry is still there, but that innocent, sweet feeling of genuine love gets totally trampled.

Quit taking him for granted, girl

In the first half, the conflicts in the drama were mainly external- Jin Ah’s issues at work, and her Mum’s complete rejection of Joon Hee and dismissal of Jin Ah. However, as we start to move into the second half, the conflicts in the drama become much more internal. Mainly, Jin Ah. As conflict starts cropping up in the main romance, Jin Ah’s response is to either ignore it, or lie about it. Yeah, doesn’t take a genius to figure out that won’t end well. But what really drove me nuts and made the second half excruciating to get through is that Jin Ah never learned. She lied to Joon Hee about meeting his father- which was a totally ridiculous, self-absorbed, insensitive thing to do. Then she blew up at Joon Hee for getting angry at her, and completely failed to see why he might not love the idea of her trying to bring his estranged father back into his life. She lies about moving out and a whole bunch of other, unnecessary stuff, all under the guise that she doesn’t want Joon Hee to worry.

Their fights stressed me out

I guess it kind of shows a new issue in a noona romance where the noona shoulders all the burden and worry because she’s older and doesn’t want anything troubling her younger man- because there’s always this idea of protection with age. Whoever is older must protect whoever is younger. But that doesn’t work in a relationship. All that Jin Ah’s lying does is prove that she doesn’t trust Joon Hee as an equal in their relationship.

I'd feel bad, but you totally did this to yourself

She doesn’t think he’s capable of handling in the same burdens that she can, and so she constantly pushes him away. Which isn’t healthy for any relationship. And every time Joon Hee takes her aside, explains why he’s upset and how Jin Ah treated him badly, and every time Jin Ah looks cute and he forgives her. Only for her to do the exact same thing again moments later. It was a painful cycle that was doomed to fail. And it did. Through Jin Ah’s selfishness she ripped Joon Hee’s confidence and self-respect apart, the couple broke up, Jin Ah lost her closest friend, and she grew distant from her family. Yeah, not a lot of good there. And while all this is going on, the sexual harassment case at Jin Ah’s workplace is turning against the females and it’s all looking pretty bleak. Then there’s a massive time skip where we essentially learn that Jin Ah has not learned from her relationship with Joon Hee, as she’s exactly where she was at the start of the series. Somehow the work issue has been resolved (who knows how), and Jin Ah is in a relationship with an older guy who treats her like dirt. She meets Joon Hee again, they have a big blowout and then they’re back together. Yeah, what.

I actually think this is a pretty accurate depiction of a toxic relationship...

The issues that came up in this relationship were not issues that time on its own could correct. The show gave me no confidence that Joon Hee and Jin Ah could learn to communicate effectively and trust each other as equals, and instead just threw them back together in an explosion of chemistry. And what we’ve spent half this show watching is the fact that chemistry is not enough to keep a relationship going.

She was always sorry that she hurt him, but always failed to see how

I have zero faith that Jin Ah has stopped being self-centred, and no faith that this couple will work out in the long run. Jin Ah’s complete inability to think of people other than herself, and her constant and unnecessary lying to Joon Hee is what tore them apart so violently previously, and the show made no moves to show how she has changed and grown as a person. Jin Ah was always very good at admitting her mistakes, but she never learned from them. She made the same bad decisions time after time, and hurt Joon Hee every single time. Joon Hee was always very good at forgiving Jin Ah, but the two were never able to fully see eye-to-eye about what their issues were. All Jin Ah saw was that something she did hurt Joon Hee, but she could never really piece together exactly what that was because she was far too self-absorbed to actually see the situation from Joon Hee’s perspective. So that really left Joon Hee no choice but to forgive her constantly, because the only other option is to break up. Which is an inevitable conclusion. The relationship between Joon Hee and Jin Ah can only last as long as Joon Hee can bear being beaten down by Jin Ah’s selfish and reckless actions that she can never see the consequences for.

Communication and understanding- still zero

So in my eyes, their reconciliation at the end of the series will be a short one, and one month or one year later when Joon Hee realises that nothing has changed and that they're still in the same cycle of hurt and self-destruction, this couple will fall apart again. 

Recommend?

Sure, if you like feeling stressed and depressed. Otherwise no.

Takes you to the highest highs just to crash you to the lowest lows

General Thoughts:

This drama turned out much better than I was actually expecting it to be. I went in assuming that we’d have some good plot line, but kinda expected it to get bogged down in an unbelievable amount of angst. Because K-Drama writers love their angst, and this set-up is basically the perfect excuse for it. But we happily avoided excessive amounts.

An appropriate amount of angst

This writer is pretty new, with the only credit being a short drama special that I haven’t seen, and I must say she’s off to a pretty solid start. While there were some mechanisms in the plot that didn’t work as smoothly as maybe they should have, the writer absolutely nailed the characters. And if I could only pick one of the two, I’d pick great characters over a flawless plot any day.

Nothing says K-Drama like couple items

All the characters (except I’d argue maybe evil Dad) felt real and raw, and achingly human. Watching such authentic characters as they struggled through their different roadblocks and tried to find their places in the world was much more engaging and heart wrenching than any amount of angsty events could ever be. The story was driven by the characters, not just their situations, which made me much more invested in the outcome of the show. It also helped that these beautifully created characters had some serious talent to act them. I’ve seen Jin Ki Joo in some dramas before, but she’s never really made an impression on me. After her role here though, she’s definitely an actress that I’ll remember. She was excellent at portraying her character’s trauma, but never came across as a weak and useless person, which was a really important distinction to make, else Jae Yi could have ended up an annoying character rather than a likeable one. As I mentioned in my ‘The Boy Next Door’ review, I’ve really started to like Jang Ki Yong. I don’t find him the most handsome actor out there, but I fall for his acting every time.

They're both fabulous

Jang Ki Yong nailed every aspect of Do Jin’s character, and made him a believable and loveable hero. His innocent, childlike expressions really linked him back to his childhood self and enforced the idea that this was a continuation of the same character. But my favourite moments were definitely the scenes in which Do Jin snapped.

I love it when Do Jin went cray cray

For most of the series he’s holding back and keeping his emotions to himself, so I really loved those moments where Jang Ki Yong let out a bit of Do Jin’s crazy protectiveness. Not only was it interesting and exciting to watch, but it also played on that idea of whether or not Do Jin was similar to his father. In all honesty, we all knew he wasn’t, but during those wilder moments we could at least entertain the idea a little, and that was definitely down to Jang Ki Yong’s engaging and explosive portrayal of his character. While I enjoy Bae Suzy and Nam Joo Hyuk, after watching this drama I am so glad they they both turned it down and the roles went to less famous, but arguably more capable actors. The character that really stole my heart was Hyun Moo. I’m a massive fan of broken characters with mildly self-destructive tendencies who learn to love (see the crazy King in ‘7 Day Queen’). They’re just so interesting, and play with your emotions much more than lead characters tend to. Their fates also tend to be a bit more uncertain. Is Hyung going to kill someone? Is Hyung going to accept his family’s love? Is Hyung going to make it out of this drama alive? Nobody knows. And I love it.

Hyung needs a hug more than anyone

Kim Kyung Nam was perfectly cast. He was so good at showcasing his character’s desire for a sense of belonging and pairing it with an evasive and combative attitude. It was the perfect recipe for a marshmallow heart in steel casing that we would all want to find happiness. Kim Kyung Nam was so good at acting as the troubled and violent Hyung that my brain still has issues realising that this is the same guy who played the dorky, fan donsaeng in ‘Smart Prison Living’. Yes. It’s the same actor. Mind blown. His range is really incredible. 

The prison drama where he's not in prison                                    The romance drama where he is in prison 

The two younger actors were absolutely amazing. I love coming across promising young talent, and those two really blew me away. I remember adoring Nam Da Reum in ‘While You Were Sleeping’ and I’m glad to see that it wasn’t a one-off thing.

Can't wait for these kids to be leads for a whole drama

He has an unbelievable amount of credits, usually playing the younger versions of characters, so it’s no wonder that the boy has some serious acting chops. Ryu Han Bi has significantly less credits, but is no less amazing. I adored the both of them, and they had a really sweet chemistry that set the stage for the older actors and their romance. For the main villain, Heo Joon Ho was pretty good. He’s got an intimidating and authoritative presence, which really worked for his character here. When you consider that for most of the drama Hee Jae didn’t actually do anything except sit in jail and talk at people, he remained a present threat. Which I put down to Heo Joon Ho being so wonderfully creepy. I think the only actor that didn’t bring his A-Game was Yoon Jong Hoon. And that’s mostly because the way he looked at Jae Yi made me think there was some sort of fauxcest situation going on (like in ‘Kill Me, Heal Me’), only to find out it was a regular brotherly love and desire to protect. Like, wow man I read you completely wrong.The pacing of the show was done pretty well, with enough time spent with the childhood counterparts, but not too much. We got the right amount of angst without Do Jin or Jae Yi ever feeling too whiney or mopey, and the actual danger kicked into gear at just the right time.

Getting stabbed by your brother who secretly loves you must suck

The one thing I will say is that the timelines in this drama were a bit sloppy and confusing at times. The jump between the kids to the adults was obvious because, hello different actors, but sometimes the way a timeline unravelled within an episode was just weird. Like, we’d finish one episode with Do Jin and Jae Yi being happy and together, then the next episode would have Jae Yi kidnapped and Do Jin off to save her,

So snuggly, so cute

before immediately snapping back to Jae Yi safe in her apartment. Obviously I figured out pretty quickly that the first scene was a glimpse into the show’s future, but honestly I could have done without the brief moment of confusion. Especially when sticking that scene in the front of the episode adds absolutely nothing to the drama. While the show did leave itself with enough time to wrap up most of its lose ends, I will say that there were some aspects of the conclusion that could have gone better. I loved how Do Jin and Jae Yi ended up- essentially un-pausing their romance and continuing on where they left off after dealing with their trauma. Perfect, excellent, I love it. Their love story was emotional, whole, and complete. But what about Hyung? What about Dad? We assume that Hyung has made his choice to be a fluffy marshmallow indulging in Mum and So Jin's love for him, but I would have liked to see some confirmation that he wasn't straying while he was in prison. The drama felt the need to show us Hyung passing Dad in prison, but not Mum visiting him. What's with that? I know which scene I'd rather see. And yes, while Dad has been captured (again) and sent to prison (again), quite honestly nothing has really changed from the start. Do Jin and Jae Yi have gone through all their emotional baggage, but the situation is still kinda the same.

Please, can we just go right ahead and carry out that death sentence now?

Crazy murderer Dad is in prison on death row. It's pretty gruesome but I found myself wishing that the show would give some hint that Dad's death sentence was actually carried out. If he broke out once, what's to stop him doing it again? The love line was concluded beautifully, but I was left wanting more of a definitive end to Hee Jae.

What Was Great:

Classic Korean Feel:

While watching this show, I was reminded of all the things in K-Drama that make it so different from Western shows, and what makes K-Drama so uniquely Korean.

K-Drama Rule 1: All first loves must end in disaster

The wistful first love, slow and nostalgic pacing, and beautiful scenery (particularly snow and cherry blossoms) are all aspects of the show that felt unique to a culture that is not my own. This difference in feel is why I fell in love with Korean dramas in the first place- my first K-Drama (‘My Love from the Stars’) had so many of these moments, and I adored how completely K-Drama this show was. Recently I feel a lot of K-Dramas are trying to make themselves more marketable worldwide, and are even remaking a fair few American shows. I loved that ‘Come Here and Hug Me’ felt kind of old school, even as it was telling a new and modern story.

It's so pretty!

It’s not to say that the show felt old or dated, but its sentimentality and quietly introspective nature really reminded me of what makes K-Drama so different to everything else. The stunning scenery, lovely sad soundtrack, and intermittent voice overs just felt so beautifully Korean.

Characters:

All the characters in this story were interesting and engaging, and made the show easy to watch. I adored Do Jin and Jae Yi’s love story, but I particularly loved Do Jin’s family dynamics.

Mum loves all her kids, even the crazy ones

Mum was an image of pure love and kindness, truly caring for Do Jin and Hyun Moo as her own children (after her initial flight response of course). The scene of her at the police station convincing Nam Woo/Do Jin to come and live with her was done beautifully, and expressed both of their hearts perfectly. Hyun Moo's journey overall was just so fascinating. His desperate attempts to get his father's attention and approval were pitiful, and honestly a little frightening. This poor boy was willing to go to such extremes just for a bit of acknowledgement, and it’s not hard to imagine how much worse his life would have turned out if he hadn’t had Mum constantly nagging at him (in that endearing, loving way). Hyun Moo’s desire to protect Mum and So Jin from the shadows was heartbreakingly sweet, and I’m glad the show gave him opportunities to step up and protect each of them, showing that he truly did care for him. Honestly, without the threat of a psychotic murdering father, Hyun Moo might never have let his guard down around the two people who acknowledged and loved him more than anyone else.

I'm so glad they didn't kill off Hyung

The question of whether sons are the shadows of their fathers is not exactly a new idea in K-Dramaland, but it remained interesting nonetheless for both the boys. While Hyun Moo was trying to reach for similarities to tie him to his father, Do Jin was trying to push those similarities away. To be honest, I still kind of fail to see what made Do Jin so much more ‘similar’ to Hee Jae (even if only in Hee Jae’s eyes).

If you don't wanna be like Dad, maybe don't use a hammer

The show never really went as far as to address what Hee Jae actually saw in his youngest son, but the psychological influence Hee Jae’s belief had was interesting to watch. Do Jin was a layered and complex character that was so much more than a son trying to break away from his father. While he had to carry a tremendous guilt that he didn’t deserve, his innocent childhood love remained unshaken, and gave Do Jin a sweet and almost naive undertone. Jae Yi/Nak Won was less intriguing as the male characters, but was an interesting heroine all the same. She was charming, yet resilient, and her kindness never felt fictional the way that some K-Drama heroines’ innate goodness sometimes comes across. While throughout most of the series Jae Yi was being protected by Do Jin, I enjoyed that in the final conflict we got to see more of her backbone. She never came across as a useless or weak character, but I’m glad she was given a chance to stand up to Hee Jae and protect Do Jin on her own.

Great role reversal

All of the characters felt unique and interesting, right down to those that only appeared for a short amount of time. I found both of the reporters truly fascinating, particularly in their differing moral codes. Honestly, I was hoping that Hee Young was going to get a bit more backstory, as at the time of her death I was left wondering what the point of her character had been, but I enjoyed her inclusion in the story simply for the fact that she had the ability to rile Hee Jae up. Which no one else seemed capable of doing.

She seemed like she was going to be way more important than she actually was

What Wasn’t:

Get Out of Jail Free Card:

As Hee Jae was our main source of conflict, it was kind of obvious that he would at some point bust out of jail to actually shake things up. Because honestly, having our characters actually have to visit Hee Jae of their own volition just to listen to him spout profuse nonsense felt a bit…silly.

Not so scary while locked up

Like, why go and see him at all? I actually didn’t find Hee Jae to be a truly terrifying villain to be blunt (and I can’t quite put my finger on why- perhaps it was his love of monologuing the same three lines), but he definitely felt like more of a threat once he escaped from prison. My issue was with how his escape came about. What possible reason would you have for transporting a highly dangerous criminal with a known fanbase outside the prison to a new location. Because some reporter was suing him? Really? I’m not sure how the law works in Korea, but I feel pretty confident that Hee Jae would not have needed to attend that small trial. Or even if he did, haven't yu people heard of Skype? It was unnecessary to even move Hee Jae from prison, but then to have him easily take out two police officers and break out of hospital seemed kinda simple. Would you really only have two regular police officers guarding a mass murderer?

It's almost like the police wanted him to escape

And then once he had escaped it drove me insane that no one thought to check his old dog farm. You know, the place where he killed people and destroyed the evidence. Yeah, that might be a good place to start looking for him and his whacko groupies. 

Citizen protection seemed pretty low on police priority

But perhaps the thing that annoyed me most about the whole situation is that people that were highly likely to be targets were given pretty much no police protection. Because apparently the young girl he tried to kill before he got arrested needs no extra protection, because why would he want to kill her? And of course the woman he says he loves should only have the protection of one old detective. And it definitely makes the most sense to have all these people at different locations. Like come on people. You would have made your lives a whole lot easier if Mum, So Jin, Jae Yi, Hyun Moo, and Do Jin all stayed in the same place with a huge security squad. Probably would have been able to avoid Mum and Hyun Moo nearly getting murdered. Jae Yi also probably would not have gotten kidnapped. I’m aware that these things needed to happen for the development of the show, I just wish the show had been a little more subtle with the way it set things up is all. Rather than having everyone in danger cuz they’re too silly to stick together with highly trained security.

Recommend?

If you like the classic K-Drama wistful, nostalgic love stories this is a drama for you.

There were an adequate amount of hugs
