Wow this may have been the slowest k-drama I have ever watched! The plot moved along at a snail's pace, and while the set up was initially interesting, it felt like it was bogged down by scene after scene of the rescue team and corporate jargon being thrown around to fill the time. I wasn't overly impressed with our couple either; I love both leads as actors but they didn't seem to have a lot of chemistry and nothing very romantic happened to convince me they were a couple. The whole story could have been told in half the amount of time, and the finale was somewhat cartoonish. I ended up skipping through a lot of episodes to important scenes because I wanted to know how the story ended, but I found most of the story to be filler. The only thing that was nice was the scenery of the forest, which created some beautiful camera shots. Other than that this was a huge disappointment, I would skip this one it is just too slow.

The entire drama and the main couple's relationship was built entirely around bonding over their each others trauma. Not necessarily bad but it felt it was purposely designed that way to manipulate the viewers' emotions forcefully. This was pretty obvious from the very beginning with how they portrayed and handled the female lead's boyfriend. You would fell for their trap if you were a newcomer. The music choices were odd and mostly cheap, in addition, the dubstep soundtrack was completely unfitting. Anyway, if it wasn't for the forestry scenery then the drama wouldn't have had much to offer. Throwing in two attractive leads together isn't enough anymore.

So I have watched so many Kdramas, in fact its my main source of tv as I find it entertaining, clean and fun for the most part. Forest is certainly a refreshing and interesting Kdrama. My Score of 10 had a lot to do with the story, I found it really refreshing, the main actors stories was really good, I loved how the characters develop along the way, not only dealing with personal obstacles but also with in the back story of the forest (that mainly only involved Park Hae-Jin). I loved how each set of partnered actors and roles had their own issues and stories, not like some dramas where you see a romance progress forward but it is faced with revengeful, spiteful and jealous exs to cause trouble along the way. I enjoyed that this drama had the obstacles but it was based on psychology and environmental issues rather than the desperate ill fitting ex drama. The setting for the drama is just beautiful, if only we could travel right now I'd love to go and visit the forest, the filming is clear, clean and gorgeous colors to match the surroundings. I loved every aspect of this show. There were times when the script writers seem to have packed a punch into a few words that left me reading between the lines but it all made sense. Hope you enjoy this as much as i and many other have. AA++

A drama of love of 2 people that had a terrifying, unforgettable past. And another drama that is full of lies, corrupted, deceit & betrayals.

In the beginning not a fan of the leading lady, thought that she is one of those that overreact by pulling hair, little crazy & talk loudly in public. In the beginning scenes, when she open her mouth it's only to incrimate herself.

But as the show progress, her attire changes & even her hairstyle, she looks pretty, more matured, adult & represents her status as a doctor.

The lead actor looks always handsome, charming & intelligent. Both have fantastic chemistry!

Worth watching! A good romantic drama.

I still had this image of Park Tae jin from bad guys of being a psycho so it was hard for me to look at his charisma in romantic settings. I also felt that there's so many talks in between romantic scenes that it becomes boring. Also, the conflict was overly emphasized in a way that it becomes annoying as you watch it till the end.
