Aqui estoy 10 años después del estreno de este drama, ¿Por qué lo vi? Come he escrito en otras reseñas, ando en la búsqueda de una buena actuación de Lee Min Ho. Ya vi: Boys Over Flowers, City Hunter, Herederos, La Leyenda del Mar Azul y The King. Nunca creí que esta serie de 10 años atrás iba a ser la que me gustara su actuación. Se que me faltan otras, pero ya estoy casi convencida de que le pasa a su actuación. Le falta espontaneidad, aqui es la única serie que he visto que se ridiculiza a si mismo, un poco, pero lo hace, en el resto nooooo. Espero que sus próximo proyectos sea mas arriesgado. The King le quedo como anillo al dedo. Quiero verlo en cosas diferentes. Volviendo a la serie, les diré que esta es la típica comedia romántica. Y como soy arquitecto me entusiasmo el área en que se mueve la historia. Reconozco que en el primer capitulo donde ella le rompe la maqueta, para de ver, dije si esta chica va ser asi, la voy a odiar así que no la voy a poder ver. Al final ella actuá muy bien, su torpeza era adorable.
Los malos son muy buenos actores, porque realmente los odiaba, casi que paraba la escena para respirar, porque entraba en furia, jajajaja. En especial con Kim In Hee. Será que alguna vez tuve amigas asi y por eso reaccionaba? La verdad no, pero sus descaros fueron fuertes para mi. Los amigos torpes y metiches, guaoooo, casi que los golpeaba, pero quien no a tenido amigos asi?
El guión para mi estuvo bien armado, el romance no lo sentí forzado, los malos hicieron maldades y no siempre se salieron con las suyas, eso es un buen equilibrio, la personalidad de la protagonista como dije fue fácil para mi de solidarizarme con ella, no como la de Boys Over Flowers, que no me entro por ningún lado.
Esta claro que no es una historia profunda, igual me enamore de esa casa. Conociendo el rubro nunca les compre la limpieza y orden de las oficinas de arquitectos, y menos lo poco estresados antes de una entrega, jajaja.
Primera vez que veo en una serie que tocan el tema gay, claro muuuuuy por encima. También es difícil ver en esta series el tema de la necesidad sexual entre las parejas. Esos dos puntos fueron interesantes de ver.
Si la volvería a ver, no pronto, un día que quiera algo light, por supuesto que adelantando las escenas crueles, jajaja.
Recomendada para disfrutar un rato, igual Min Ho tiene ropa extraña, como siempre. Igual se ve super. e verdad me gusto su actuación, gracias por leer, saludos

Story: The story was really good and kinda different from the other dramas. Sure there were cliches but hey, which drama doesn't have them? And oddly enough, they don't bother me much in dramas. The story was pretty interesting and, despite there being small plot holes, over all it was really good.
Casting: Umm... well, this drama had Lee Min Ho in it. So even if it would've had the worst story line, camera work etc of all time, I would've watched it. For Mr Lee Min Ho. Because I love him. I love him so so much!
BUT, the other cast was really good too! The leading lady, Ms Son Ye Jin, did a great job! She was not afraid to make a fool of herself on-camera and she acted pretty well. Lee Min Ho is one of my favorite Korean actors. Not just because of his looks but also because of his acting skills. He's a great actor! Plus he knows how to kiss, which I think most Korean actors don't.
Characters: All the characters were great and the actors who played them did a great job! I liked Chang Ryul. I felt sorry for him. I could see that he had good in him but because of his father he turned kinda... bad. He was, in a way, innocent. I felt sorry for Kim In Hee too. She threw away her friendship because she was too selfish and didn't trust anyone. I loved Sang Jun! He was so funny! And I really liked Gae In's best friend's character too. She reminded me a lot of my best friend...
Romance: I loved the romance in this drama! It really felt like Jin Ho & Gae In were in love. You see, usually in Kdramas I just don't feel like the leads are actually in love with each other. But in this drama it really did feel like they loved it each other. The romance was really cute and well developed!
I don't really have much more to say about this drama... I loved it. The story was great. The characters were memorable. The romance was adorable. The underlying themes were well portrayed. So if you are in the mood for a good romantic comedy drama with a hot male lead and a pretty good story, I'd recommend Personal Taste.

The acting of this kdrama was superb and definitely what stood out the most. Lee Minho seems to never fail me with his acting. Some people think otherwise with this actor but I honestly think he is a really good actor and he did well in this kdrama. Song Yejin portrayed her character well. She was honestly a fun character to watch, in my opinion. All the characters in this kdrama were really good and the supporting roles were very important. My favourite character is Director Choi. I got quite annoyed with In Hee and Sang Joon but that's okay.
I never really paid attention to the music until the last couple of episodes. I don't know why. But I realise, the music was not bad! The chosen music fit with the concept of the kdrama really well. I feel like there was one song that was repeated too many times but it's still a good song so I didn't mind too much.
The filming of this kdrama was a little off at times, I have to admit.. (e.g in one of the earlier episodes, I'm sure I saw a microphone in the filming view or something).
Overall, this korean drama was enjoyable to watch. I was in no rush to finish it because it wasn't too intense and not really many cliff hangers. Good to watch if you're looking for something calmer and sweeter :)

I wish the writer stubs their toe for every new watcher that has to witness this.
Mild spoiler!I'm so mad at this show, for the middle part between episodes 4-12 it is quite likable, almost redeemable since the first 4 episodes are actually quite hard to get through. FL is sad throughout most of the show and doesn´t prioritize herself at all, and my understanding was that there was some personal growth here. Then it is completely shattered by the last 4 episodes.
The ML when they actually start getting serious is lovable half of the time and a jealous ass the rest. He then keeps on lying at every turn and acts entitled to walk in and out of FL´s life whenever he seems fitting. Also belittling her every time!
By the last two episodes, I was not voting for them to get together. ML does not deserve her.

For fans of Son Ye Jin and Lee Min Ho only.
Full confession: I could sit and watch Son Ye Jin knit a sweater for 16 episodes and be happy as a clam, so having her in a starring role was more than enough for me to stick with this one to the end. But if you are looking for a great story, well told, you should probably pass on this one. It's strictly for fans of Son Ye Jin and Lee Min Ho. The story is overloaded with cartoonish characters, over-the-top plot twists, and kdrama tropes. The creepy villain (played by Ahn Suk Hwan) and the evil ex-best friend (Wang Ji Hye) who won't go away were simply too much, as was the overly drawn-out (and unbelievable) case of mistaken "gay"-dentity. And plot holes? What happened to the loan sharks and the mortgage on the house from episode one?!! Still, it is a bit better than average kdrama starring two of Korea's most recognizable and bankable stars, which should be more than enough for the casual viewer.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

What were they thinking?
I`ve watched this drama only once - and that was a chore all on its own. I feel like this drama was honestly helmed by amateur writers - in every sense of the word.This drama is supposed to show two character developments happening at the same time and in the same place. Lee Mih-ho`s character is meant to put up a charade for a rather selfish reason, however he`s supposed to change along the way. Not the most creative plot line, but it`s honestly the best part of this mess. Lee Mih-ho`s acting can really be one-dimensional and hit-or-miss, but he`s without a doubt the best actor here, along with Ryoo Seung-Ryong. It`s just that he has no chemistry with Son Ye-jin. And it doesn`t help that her character is a complete doormat and above all, that she`s not convincing in this role. Her character`s development is supposed to be centered around letting go, taking your life by the horns and changing. Only that is presented so muddily, made even worse by her portrayal. I don`t get it. When I watch her act in this, it`s almost like she`s on the cusp of getting it, but is to afraid to put in more effort. The way her mother died also really cemented for me the level that this drama`s writers seem to be on. And I`m fully aware that sounded snobbish and underhanded but it still is true.
Which is made even more obvious when Yoon Eun-Hye makes a short cameo. Like, I`m not kidding when I say that this drama was my background noise and a chore to finish until I saw her for like ten minutes. She brought fresh air into this thing and I`m so sad that she`s not getting more roles.
Alas, that`s my personal preference. Cinematography is fine, like someone else mentioned, the wardrobe is REALLY questionable. Also, the sets got on my nerves really quick. I hate that I`m a stickler for these things, but I cannot stress enough how fake EACH SET LOOKED. It didn`t look perfect, it was downright jarring to look at. Even this is a really high score average for something this subpar.
I`m positive that this should`ve stayed in the vault, as I doubt that it`s anybody's personal taste at all.

This was obviously pretty dated by the time I watched it so some of the story just didn't move me that much since it had a lot of cliches. Jin Ho's noble idiocy just was pretty over the top, so that was a bit annoying. But the leads had incredible chemistry together and I looked forward to the scenes they had where they were bonding together. For me personally (my "personal taste" if you will...heh), it was a little too angsty for a show deemed a romantic comedy. The misunderstanding of Jin Ho being gay was played for a few laughs at first, but then started to cause real issues that affected others. Thankfully Jin Ho handled the situation with as much class and care as he could.
The back half of the story is where it started to get a little draggy and the evil 2nd female lead just had an uncanny knack for popping up just in time to either hear things that she shouldn't or to cause unnecessary trouble for the leads. That cliche wore a bit thin. Also Ahn Suk Hwan as Chang Ryul's dad --HOO BOY! If anything was too over the top in this show more than anything, it was his "villain laugh". Seriously, you have to hear it to believe it! It's like the most cartoon evil villain laugh you've ever heard, but one of the most annoying things in the whole show. (Please, Lord, make it stop!)
All in all, for a drama this dated, it was not a total waste of time. I enjoyed most of it, but I wouldn't rewatch it.

Weak heroine
LMH and SYJ are both very good in this series, but I had a hard time getting past what a doormat she was. I don't care for females that are so strong they are off-putting, but she was at the TOTAL other end of the scale! The "poor me" attitude was irritating. This drama went on a lot longer than I felt it should have. Also, the second lead couple were just evil and I hated the things they did. Some shows just don't age well either, whether due to the lack of production value or the storyline. Happy ending - cute proposal. They get high marks for good kissing scenes.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
There were a lot of characters that annoyed me during this, but plot-wise it was pretty strong, aside from the bout of noble idiocy at the end, which I hated.
The topic of being gay was, for the most part, handled really well, and I was really surprised they had a great gay character — Director Choi might’ve been one of my favorite characters in this, though he made me so SAD.
