Title: 9/10
I really like your title. It is unique, not something one would see that often, while still alluding to the fact that there is a love story with a lot of pain behind it. I loved the way it ties in so well with your story line!

Plot: 28/35

                4/5: Originality
                Honestly there are lots of stories where the man gets left by his love and meets her years later when he is engaged. Yours is made so unique because of the way the leaving was done and the major twists you've added to the story through Goeun and Youngjae's romance. I absolutely loved that you did not go the all-so-typical route and have the other girl be a total b.tch! She's loveable and that in itself really made your story stand out to me. Adding more twists in (such as Mani never going back to Yongguk for the way he treats her, and instead ending up with Daehyun) would make it even better.

                10/10: Believability
                I like that you built up your world and made the characters feel like real people, especially the way that even the 'bad' guys have obvious reasons for their actions and are not evil, just self-centered. You've done a really great job with that and the way that you set up your storyline, too, is very believable. Everything from the mother's actions to Yongguk's responses in current time are so realistic, I love it.

                6/10: Narration
                You do have some narration issues, mostly being from that I suspect that you are not a native English speaker? I will get into those in the grammar portion, but they really did affect the narration of your story.

                8/10: Setting
                I really liked your believable world, but I would like to see more things described. Her wedding shop, for instance; what does it look like? What kid of flowers does Youngjae tend to? What are the characters wearing? Really describing your setting more will help the reader to be able to not only read your story, but envision it in their mind, making an entirely better experience.

Characterization: 26/35

                7/10: Development
                With your female characters you do a fantastic job of showing their thoughts and emotions, but with your male characters you don't do as well. Yongguk is very hard to understand; one moment he is nice and sweet and the other moment he is mean/stubborn. Youngjae, too, is hard to understand but for a different reason; all we really get to see of him is his love for Goeun. Really delving into your male characters as much as you do your female ones will really help to bring them more to life.
