Seung gi is on my top three most favorite actors- but I did not have high expectations oh his dramas. Even if Brilliant Legacy stole my heart - still I wasnt expecting much from watching King2Hearts - maybe bec of the title or the poster that i was thinking it is just one of those seen this heard that dramas. But I was completely wrong- the drama is so unpredictable - I rarely get tensed on watching suspense dramas- but this one really got me. And I must say - Seung Gi’s acting improved a lot in this drama which I think deserved an acting award. I focused on his character and he did not fail the writers and directors on what they wanted to show.

I am not into politics so my viewing point maybe different - (dirt in politics - human greed and selfishness is not new to me)

I focused on the main lead individualism- specifically the making of a worthy king. Started of being a humble boy - acknowledging the position of his older brother - and enjoying what the advantage of being the second son- rather than envious and greed to take his brother’s place. Him being honest and bold - not a genious but seeks wisdom. Him not wanting to be a King from a young age - because he was somome who gave up on trusting people apart from his family - but right after his bro died - he knew what he had to do. Someone who gets stronger during tough times - which I can relate so much. I agree that in the darkest time - the fools think they are of advantage - not knowing that it will actually make the rightious shine more brightly.
I can go on and on and on- There are just so many lessons to learn from Lee Jae Ha’s character alone. And seungi naturally shown the process. Bonuses are that of all the royale family memebers- and ofcourse kim hang ah.

I already love seungi prior watching this but still this made me love him even more. Such a talended man. I respect him as a singer - actor - and as a person.

Random comparisson:
(I watched this right after finishing”Healer” - ironically - even though I also like Ji Chang Wook plus he has better features than Lee Seung Gi - and even though i liked Healer which is - technically better - but both Seungi Gi and King2hearts - won in my heart - at the end of the day it is how the drama and the actors make you feel while and after watching.)

This is my first of Lee Min Ho, yes you've read it right. Inspite of loving KoreanDrama since 2009, I've watched lee min ho for the first time(2017). I did not hate lee min ho, but he came out too famous to start with and I was not fond of going with the hype and so i skipped his dramas. hihi. And then decided to watch him out of curiosity. For some reasons,watching him in this drama gives me an impression that he is a good person. His acting is not superb and I am too familiar with his face, but I found him charming because of his height and gestures after watching him. I'm planning on watchign his other dramas next. About the drama, I enjoyed the shallowness, the humor, the atmosphere, the location shoots, the suspense, anger,lonliness,regrets, love that were all not to a deep extent but just enough for me to be entertained, to be fluttered, to laugh to cry. I enjoyed the drama from start to finish!

OMG, what have I been watching all these years that I just got to watch this now!??
Not fond of musical movies or dramas; so I did not expect to like this drama that much, but to my surprise I enjoyed every bits of it, It is now one of my favorite dramas.
Song Sam Dong, was lovable all throughout! Kim Soo Hyun is now one of my favorite actors.; I even think I like him best. I shed worthy tears many times, and have learned so much from this drama.
I am turning 30 this year, and this movie made me ask myself if I ever had a dream? I want to see how beautiful it is,too. I so love the scene when Sam dong made a solo performance, i think that's the very heart of the drama; kim Soo Hyun really pulled it off. I also love his duet with IU, watched it several times.
I wish there were more sweet Sam Dong -Hye Mi moments; and more of them at the ending.
But still this drama is 10/10! Kim Soo Hyun was just perfect for his role, no other actors would have done it better than him.

I love this drama!! It was so much fun to watch. I started with 5 episodes for 1 night and rest 11 episodes the next day. Made me happy all throughout! Gong Yoo was so adorable the whole time! I was hesitant to watch this at first because it would not appear on the best kdrama lists I've seen, I watched it because I want to see Gong Yoo at a young age. This is underrated drama, I like full house,only you and coffee prince, but surprisingly I enjoyed watching this Biscuit Teacher Best! It gives me that feeling of being in love and loved by the man of my dreams :) Brings back good school memories. And ooh I love watching Gong Yoo!!!

If you are both conservative and not fond of reading, you need not to watch this.
I watched it because I got curious to see Kim Go Eun's acting in her first debut.
I think they are trying to show how a 70 yr old cans till fall in love regardless of time an age, but not for me, the only thing I have learned form the movie is for us women to be sensitive with our actions towards men regardless of how harmless them may seem to us, we should be modestly dressed and careful with our gestures, so that we won't provoke them men.
I have read reviews relating poetry to this movie, well I am no poet, writer nor a bookworm, but I love to read between the lines, I give life a deep thought, and try to see things differently, but I can not see any poetry nor love in this movie, they just used poetry and love as an excuse for a human's weakness.
As for the female character, i think she speaks of the problem with teenage girls who have low self esteem, they tend to adore who ever sees them otherwise. That's why it is important for parents to praise their children.
I am wondering if Kim Go Eun did not regret doing this film up until now. I mean, if it is something like the Hollywood film ; "The notebook" it is worth some sexy scenes (but still less than what was shown in A muse)
A Man and A Woman, was even more decent than this.

I never thought id write a review about this drama which I attempted watching 7yrs ago but could not even convince myself to finish the first episode. Im guessing the reason was 1. The plot seems like childish 2. Was not attracted with the male lead. But why did I give it a 10? I only learned about Lee Seung Gi after watching A Korean Odyssey - I got attracted with his soothing aura that I now find him handsome (that I think im liking him better than PBG) so right after watching AKO I knew I had to watch MGIAG, I ended up liking it even better than AKO. Yes- the plot is not technically impressive not as accurate as fantasy novels like harry potter- but every movie has its own charm and flavor. And I have to say that Gumiho made my taste buds nomo nomo nomo nomo happy. How come? 1. I must say, impact of movies depend on which time of your life you watch them - by this time I really enjoy the characters innocence - vibe- positivity - that I wont notice any flaws. 2. For some reasons hearing Woonga’s voice seeing how positive his eyes are - reminds me of my youth when I was fearless and careless- It is refreshing to watch. 3. The chemistry of the main leads- none is over powering the other - they blended well. 4. The ending *spoiler*
I like that it’s a happy ending. In this time of my life where I take a lot of pressure being an adult - it’s inspiring to see even from a movie how everything pays off well in the end regardless of all uncertainties- mistakes- waiting. Woonga’s eyes deserved to see what he did not gave up on believing to see - :)

This is my first of both park shin hye and lee jung suk - been waiting for this on netflix- glad they’ve finally added it - although it is not one of the dramas which I can’t wait for next day to see the next episode nor not one of those that makes me flutter big time - it does give me right dose of everything i like about a drama and to mention one of the very few dramas which has more than 5 characters which interests me.

As for park shin hye - i did not really find her beauty appealing and rather bland and typical - but she actually is gorgeous in this drama and acts well.

Lee jung suk (oh i have seen secret garden prior this but i skipped all of his scenese there so technically this is my first of him) on the other hand can easily catch attention bec of his looks and and smile - he is good at crying - cold hearted - playful and romantic scenes too - just lacking on eyes expression in showing sarcasm/mysterious in our language “angas” (ie- lee seung gi in hwayugi - when he looks scary in a good way)

Although ki Ha myeong family story is really a tragic - it didn’t make me cry - what made me shed tears is whenever Cho dal po adoptive family can’t hide how they care for him and how they adore him. The warmth in their house and the chemistry amongst them is soothing. (I love the younger gi ha myeong too - such a handsome boy)

The arguements were satisying til the end. The only thing off for me is weight between media and police/detectives - it is at times off - but i can say acceptable - so id let that slide.

Overall a good drama which reminds us the difference between lie and truth and that there is nothing in between.

I might not re watch this but I definetely recommend it!

It is very tough for me to be interested in watching a drama with unfamiliar actors - I thought Captain Yoo would come out early but he didn't so I thought of just dropping the drama. But as the story progresses, unnoticeably I'm beginning like the characters and feels good about seeing how they live in the prison and finally laugh and shed some tears.

The story makes me think how the world might be like if we have the mentality of a sinner who thinks he doesn't deserve anything so when somebody does him good - he feels humbled and grateful. It reminds me of how Jesus Christ died for our since while we were still sinners and how undeserving are we of his grace - but we received it anyway.
The story inspires me to be somebody who is capable and successful - Just as how KJH has means and fame, and knew exactly whom to share them with. How fulfilling is it to be able to help someone and eventually become family.
The story also makes me think how being in the unknown zone makes you discover things about yourself and how your character is built based on the responses you make with the help of people who believe in you.

*Spoiler*

And lastly - i think the reason why only the "DRUGIE" failed to learn his lesson - is a warning to viewers to never take drugs because it controls your brain - which prevents people and even yourself in helping you out.

I rarely or never try watching a drama without atleast one actor/actress which interests me. But the title seems interesting so I planned on watching few minutes then drop it if I get bored. But I ended up watching 3episodes - and rest of the episode the next day. The plot alone makes you want to watch it til the end in no time.

One thing I’ve learned watching this is - “having atleast ONE PERSON to believe you and share genuine relationship can make a HUGE impact in one’s life. It reminds me to be kind and inspires me to reveal the good in people which sometimes they fail to realize themselves.

It reminds me also of how important friendship made in highschool is- how we depend on each other and how the fun in school makes life less difficult.

Shout out to these young actors convincing acting- you can see how they value true talent in Korea TV industry. (Which is far from how the actors their age in my country act - hehe)

This may not be a drama which you can not wait to see the next episode the next day, but it does makes you feel good watching a few episodes whenever possible. In fact I got used to looking getting a dose of Coachinim and Mem everyday.

It’s my second time watching Ji Sub in a drama after Im Sorry I love you which I’ve watched many years ago. I always knew he’s a good actor and can be good looking and that he must have aged. But didnt realize he can be this sexy and good looking still.

I enjoyed seeing the charcters. Not an epic drama but definetly a good watch!
