I love this series! Although it's long and get's draggy here and there but the cutest couple, Alec Su & Chae Rim's chemistry in this series really made this drama more romantic than it ought to be.
As for the ending, I was in shocked and heart aching but when I watched the ending 2nd time around, I was please. Movie/Series, however you wanna refer it, do imitate life. Not all relationship will have a happy ending, but just make sure you make the best out of it...the kind you can reflect and hold memory to because it was in good terms.
I do really hope Chae Rim and Alec Su will collaborate again. In interviews and clips, they seem very close and they have been keeping in touch with one another still. They must be really good friends to do so.
Btw, Alec Su is such a great singer. Love his themesong to "Love at Aegean Sea"....'Plato's Eternity'.
Plato - "finder"(greek philosopher)
Eternity - endless time
Serenity - free from stress
