My most perfect drama (not spoilery)

dangermousieYes, I apologize for the spamming but I can't help it. It's been YEARS since I fell this hard for a piece of fiction - you know that little 'fantasy drama' meme that was going around a bit back - what would a drama just for you be like - I have actually found it! I think WW speaks to me, in a viscerally personal way, more than *gasp* any other piece of fiction I have ever come across. Forget favorite drama, this might be my favorite piece of tv (or film) ever. If I knew how to write in Korean, I'd write a thank you letter to the writer of this. I am both obsessively watching it (I had little sleep tonight because I stayed up late and woke up early to watch it) and yet I am doing it very slowly (by my standards), only a couple of episodes per day. True, in part it's because of the baby and other rl activities and because I do not fast-forward at all, the way I do with most everything I watch, but it's also because I do not want it to ever end and because I rewatch bits and pieces of each episode immediately.
Another thing I love about WW? The sense of intimacy and joy. This scene, where they talk about Joon Young's family problems between kisses and whispered "I love you's" almost made me feel a voyeur - the private hidden space enveloping them, hiding close under Joon Young's blankets (Ji Oh snuck into the girls' dorm on the shoot and mustn't be caught) feels so very intimate and quiet and real.
Oh, and this scene made me so very giddy. It's Kyu-Ho and Hae-Jin walking in the rain, the irrepressible Hae-Jin making serious, grown-up Kyu-Ho behave like a kid. I have a huge thing for walking in the summer rain (when I was little, I'd run out into the yard as soon as it started raining) so I really really adored this part.
