The narrative centers on two individuals who experienced a romantic connection during their high school years, with plans to leave together that were ultimately thwarted. Years later, now in their thirties, they unexpectedly find themselves reunited. Initially, this rekindling stirs up unresolved pain and hurt, but eventually, they opt to try again with romance. The majority of the story unfolds with them as adults, interspersed with glimpses back into their teenage years. While the series is emotionally resonant and concludes positively, it also evokes a sense of longing for what might have been. It consists of just six episodes; I would have preferred a longer runtime. However, a point of frustration lies in the way the series handles the past—it hints at the high school incident that led to their separation but doesn't reveal it until the final two installments. In my opinion, disclosing this information earlier would have been preferable, as it was the core issue they needed to resolve for reconciliation, and as an audience member, you remain largely in the dark about what transpired throughout much of the series. It was absolutely worth investing the time to watch.
