The plot is fairly good.i like the whole north-south divide because this was something new.one thing i also liked was the fact that this drama challenged pre conceived notions about royalty.I thought that royalty was supposed to be all encompassing power but in this drama the royalty is so real and powerless that its almost to the extent of craziness.
Lee Seung Ki has done an amazing job..he's convincing as a king who doesnt know his place in the world.i loved how the drama focused on his growth as a human being throughout the 20 episodes.he never stopped to amaze me.He came out as one of the strongest character out of the lot.Jo Jung Suk is the shining star for me,he made Eun Shi Kyug utterly lovable and believable.I loved the father daughter relationship between kim Hang Ah and Kim Nam il
the villain in this one was very interesting to watch but i wished he had more brains..:D.i would have loved a psychological war between him and the king.would have been awesome
this drama has lots of flaws.i had loved Han Ji Won in earlier works but in this one she was too irritating with her north korean accent but for that i should probably blame the director.she just tried too hard to be cute which was painful to watch.she was a woman who could kick ass in the starting episodes but as the episodes followed Kim Hang Ah became more and more weak according to me.another fact was that the leads had too much of an age difference and it showed in the drama.the chemistry was sometimes good and sometimes lacklustre.i expected romance.i tried really hard to find it but just couldnt find it at all.their love should have been worth swooning after but it didn't make me giddy with happiness or perceive their love as star crossed lovers of a divided nation
the story is filled with drama and tension but i didnt feel any of the emotions that the chracters were going through.I was wholly detached while watching this one.This started out as a very strong drama but in the end messed up everything it tried to prove.many wouldnt agree with me since this is a pretty popular drama but for me..this one's a forgetable one.
this drama could have been perfect and it kills me because i expected so much out of this.
this drama deserves atleast one watch simply because of Lee Seung Ki who has grown as an actor in this one...and the few good characters that this drama had.

This drama may seem like a typical love story with the guy falling in love with a girl but it is so MUCH more.
This is indeed a love story and one of the best out there.Im officially stalking Erika Keitagawa,the script writer of this drama.Do not drop it thinking that the girl is deaf so it would be filled with lots of tears and angst.It definately has its share of that too but its more about this group of youngsters not knowing their place in the world and actually working towards it by being together and finding out their place and making the friendships in life matter.
The depiction of friendship is one of the best.I could feel the care and friendship when the guys stole each others food or when they pulled each others leg because in reality that's what guys do.Tease and play and make fun and still have the bromance going on.The friendship between the girls was heartfelt too.Ozawa Akane learned sign language just becuse she wanted to converse with her friend.How sweet is that.These people will give their lives for each other and that's how strong the friendship is.
Sae is not the typical heroine.She's arrogant,moody and full of her own insecurities and issues.Shibasaki Kou is simply amazing as Sae.Without her voice she can still make us feel all her emotions.Her eyes speak and so does her sign language.I never knew one could express so many emotions through sign languge.You can feel her frustration and anger when her hands speak fast and her sadness when they are barely moving.she brought something fresh to my screen and all her dilemna about falling in love with a normal guy seems so real and touching.After she worked through her insecurities and emotions she came out as just another girl with dreams and fantasy of prince charming and not someone physically handicapped but someone just like you or me.
Kai is the type of guy we can be friends with and eventually fall in love.The one with whom falling in love is as easy as breathing.He gives a warm feeling and with whom you could talk about anything for hours and still won't get bored.The one who'll piggyback you when your feet hurt and the type of guy who'll fight for your honour even when he knows he'll get beaten up in return :D
Its not that he has no flaws but his flaws are so minimal.I LOVE his character and how he doesnt pity Sae for being the way she is but treats her like he would any other girl.Tsumabuki Satoshi as Kai was so cute.
The leads romance was filled with light and sweet moments.They had a few tearjerker scenes which brought more emotion to the story.The subplot of Akane and Sano falling in love was interesting too.Sano being a playboy and how Akane actually turns this good for nothing guy who considers himself worthless into someone who can actually learn to love and care was good to watch.
What i also liked and could connect with is how none of them knew what they had to do with their lives and how after they came together they solved each question,each problem together and came out victorious.Their dilemna in thinking what career to choose or their stress over not finding a job is so real and so relatable that i saw myself in them with the same aspirations and dreams in life.
The music was soothing and beautiful.
All addicts know that at some point every drama drags and this did too but only in the later few episodes.Its pretty well made so there aren't much flaws here even when i tried to find some.
Romance,friendship and teenage angst in one gifted Package deserves to be watched by all
Go and watch it NOW..:P

i agree with everything the earlier reviewer Amrita has said..just will add a few more points to it
The chemistry was nowhere to be found.i couldn't understand why Makoto with so many talents be running like the coffee girl.she doesnt do aything in the office aprt frm gazing at her 'genius' boss or fetching coffee for people or trying to memorise things.she is not productive at all so why why does she hang around the office.cnt fanthom that.
I tried finding comedy or any hint of romance.I was expecting a hot coffee mixed with just the right touch of romance and all i was left with was a cold coffee with no sugar in it at ALL..for me romance doesnt always have to be all about skinship.There are many dramas which without having a single kiss are just as romantic as any other.Sadly this drama has nothing neither any romance or any cute moments.
I wonderred and thought hard why it was such a success and only god knows why but as far as story was concerned i was happy that they fcused on the corporate world in the whole'the social network' style and was pleased with Oguri Shun's acting apart from that i felt like a drenched child in the rain who was promised a candy and in return got nothing.Offcourse il never we rewatching this again
just becoz i didnt like it doesnt mean others won't..personal preference i guess..
so go check this one out maybe you'll end up liking it...:D

Song is pretty much an eye candy but when we look beyond we see he's really talented as well.Seeing him in Sungkyunkwan Scandel was a delight but Ma Roo is something totally different.
Ma Roo is porobably one of the best characters ive come across in dramaland.He is not the typical khero who saves the day with his knight in shining armour act.He's something better.We never know what he is thinking.Till the last few episodes i was left wondering whom did he actually love-the heroine or the villain.Like a glass which only reflects what it sees not letting us look beyond Ma Roo does the same.Its easy to understand his twisted psychology and motives but nevertheless he is one of the most fascinating chracters around.He's a noble idiot who would sacrifice all for the one he loves even if that means he has to die in the process.At the same time if you get into his bad books.Boy! you better watch out then.He will literally tear you apart.He feels strongly but rarely lets emotion comes to surface.He is calm and calculated but at the same times those little flicker of moments when he lets his real self show,whoa! that's what Song Joong Ki does.He makes Ma Roo into someone where we don't know if we hate the guy or love him.He's that twisted and crazy.
Moon Chae Won steals the show for me.Though Maroo with his self sacrifice act seems more noble but she isnt far behind.She as Eun Gi carries most of the brillaince that innocent man is for me.She sparkles sand shines in this drama.Acting like a total witch one moment and the next acting like a high school girl going on her first date,she does both perfectly.She's brilliant and grips us in her character where we feel the utmost for what she is and why she is like that.She is not the usual kdrama heroine but curses and swears when things don't go according to her.She knows how to play mind games and taesan means the world to her.She's stubborn,Smart and with lots of sass.Eun Gi definately comes on my best characters list.:)
Park Si Yeon as Han Jae Hee is damn awesome.i loved how she is the one woman who has the power to lure any guy away from their woman.She's the typical woman we love to hate but there are moments when we understand her circumstances and actually feel pity for her but at the end of it she did what she had to do to reach a position she was loath to leave making our drama more interesting.It is because of PSY that Jae Hee seems almost human and we can find a person like her anywere.One who's so smitten with ambition that she would destroy herself in the process and wouldn't care a damn about it.She comes full circle and i love how the writers created her so that we could see utter selfishness and cruelty mixed with a bit of humanity in between to give us a complex character.
Kim Tae Hoon as Ahn Min Young is one who is so similar to Ma Roo but where MaRoo earns our respect and sympathy for the life that is tragedy for him,AMY just makes us remind how creepy a character can be.He's someone who's lost in love with Jae Hee and its this love mingled with his own ambition that he destroys himself.
The plot is fast paced and involves much for the fight for the throne of Taesan group.We are constantly made to wonder what the hell does everyone actually feel.Everybody needs a therapy according to me because all the characters are more or less broken and so flawed that it gives so much scope for so many things.It is a romance drama but though everyone does what they do because of their twisted idea of love its never the focus.We are more invested in the emotions that they go through for the inevitable decisions they make and have to bear the consequences later.it isnt the once in a lifetime type of ove story where petals will be scattered aroud.Its a more mature romance where love is mingled with selfishness and ambition and the utter greed that resides in most minds
Won't be rewatching this anytime soon as all the good things are lost second time around
Watch it for its pure take on twisted psychology and the flawed and damaged character ,and the fact that such characters are so real and true to life that you can find them anywere..:D

I have this love for dark dramas and that's when i stumbled upon this drama and i jumped around in glee..:DThe plotline sounds very unusual because love is supposed to change you in a good way and not to consume you like it does in this drama.I liked the plot and didnt find it draggy at all and it was pretty addicting since i finished it in 2 days.i love cliches if they are not overdone and too over the top and this felt right.It does become mellow in between but thats okay.Offcourse you wont find any laughs here.Its intense,dark,twisted and full of drama.
Much of the story in the starting episodes is given in flashbacks and therefore was interesting to watch as the writer gave few links at a time letting us form our own theories.
Xia Mo is unlike other heroines and you would have a hard time liking her.She's the perfect sister,perfect friend but when it comes to love she is the most cruelest person you'l come across.I can hardly believe that the novelist from whose novel this drama is adapted could come up with such a twisted heroine.She was the perfect heroine with whom i had Love\Hate relationship throughout the drama.I can sympathize with many decisions she makes throughout the drama but that doesnt mean i agree with her.She's a complicated heroine and probably the coldest of them all.As Luo Xi constantly says her heart is made of ice and i agree.Wherever love for a man is concerned she has no heart and that is why it is so frustating to see 2 awesome guys fighting over this girl.For her the most important of them all is her brother Yin Cheng and she sees nothing else beside this guy.Frustrating and irritating because i know family is important but that doesnt mean you have to hurt and almost kill others for the sake of just one person.I understand her obsessional love for her brother but it was just too much for me.Barbie was wonderful in the acting department here because she could be kind hearted to her friends when the next moment she could coldly reject any of the guys.
Luo Xi is the perfect flirt in the starting but as the story unfolds we see he has much substance if we care to look beneath the surface.He's warm,caring and kind but he does have a cruel streak to himself too which i heartily ignore becuase this guy has so much tendency to love.hwang Xiao Ming as Luo Xi was a treat to watch.His acting is marvellous becuse most of the time he's smiling but when you look close that smile is sometimes sad,sarcastic,happy or simply heartbreaking
Ou Chen is the type of guy we should be beware of.He's powerful,controlling and slightly cruel but when it comes to love he isnt much better than the others.Peter Ho does justice to his role because whatever Ou Chen feels the viewer can too.He's not complicated because when it comes down to it he really does love Xia Mo to the depths of the world and does much in the drama to convince us that he does
I never switched ships in my life as much as i did in this drama.One second i was shoutning Ou Chen and the next it would be Luo Xi and again il switch back to Ou Chen and there my ship kept on floating hither tither.Till the last second of the last episode i still wondered who she should end up with becuase frankly whichever guy she chose i would have loved it anyway because both of them loved her unconditionally and wholeheartedly but i guess the best man wins so i was happy with the ending.Though il never be convinced of the fact that Xia Mo actually loved any of the guys.She was too selfish for me and i wished she was more kind and loving becuase really those 2 guys yearn for so much love.I think she doesnt deserve these 2 guys love because she never reciprocated it to the extent the 2 guys did but still they did make for an unforgettable love triangle
You'l see abandonment issues,daddy issues and mommy issues flying around and trust me you haven't seen such heart breaking characters as this one.all the three protagonists are so broken and so screwed up you will be glad you are not them.What the 2 guys feel for the girl is so intense that i was blown away.Barbie has awesome chemistry with both the leads.Equal sreentime is given to both of them that its hard to understand who's the main guy.Stay away from spoilers because its rare when we don't know who the heroine will end up with..:D
The music was nothing special but didnt get irritating to listen too.set the tone right and was good enough
watch it if you love dark dramas or guys whose love for the heroine is unforgettable or simply for the good chemistry.. ;)

The story is pretty different than others where lots of focus is given to 2 couples throughout the story,the parents and their children.
There isnt much that needs to be analysed or thought over.Though the angsty parts do make us question and ask who loves more.The parents and their 30 year love or the young ones with their new and fresh love
The best part of this drama was the romance.Jang Geun Suk is awesome as Joon.He plays his part well and his kissing skills have definately improved from his You're beautiful days.Though i definately would like to have a private word with his stylist who's made a huge blunder with the hairstyle and the clothes hiding the handsome man that Jang Geun Suk is.But being JGS he still shines..:)
I love his character growth who from a flirt turns into this caring and kind man who's ready to sacrifice his love for his love's happiness.Nothing matters to this guy but Ha Na and that's so cute.Love all the intimacy because its not forced but natural,like they are so much in love that their smiles and eyes say a lot.They have such sweet and heartwarming chemistry.Leaves me feeling warm all over and happy.Yoon Ah as Ha Na is convincing enough.
The parents love was beautiful till episode 4 but then then they grew to be adults it was missing that zing that we call romance.i just didnt care for them anymore but that they were an obstruction to my beloved couple.I loved the character of Sun Ho.He was a kind and caring friend till the end and Kim Shi Woo is major eye candy.will be stalking his future dramas..:D
Mi Ho is one of the most annoying characters ive come across.She's clingy,needy and irritating as hell.She has no self respect so i skipped her parts the most.Yoon Hee and Ha Na's mother-daughter relationship was so touching and full of love that it seemed real.She makes one beautiful and loving mom.I loved that Ha Na loved her mom and considered her happiness above her own even though she knows she'd end up dying inside evry single second that passes.Such love for a mother is so rare almost nil.It also showed the harsh reality of what a divorce does to the children and how twisted and self centered Hye Jung is.I loved the development of father-son relationship of Joon and In Ha.Joon hated his father after the divorce but due to Ha na and Yoon Hee he healed his relationship with him.All the wounds that were there in the starting were starting to heal at the end of the drama.satisfying and shows us the human ability to change in a good way..:)
The soundtrack is like the assortmant of different candies laid in front and you get to pick the ones you like.Its that awesome.From english to french to korean.its so awesome!!!
No words could desribe how OUTSTANDING the cinematography is.Its so beautiful and breathetaking that i'm gonna rewatch those scenes again later some time
Now the bad parts.It was too draggy.I haven't skipped through a drama as much as i did through this one.I just couldn't care for the characters apart from a handful.The writers were so good to write such an unforgettable romance but not anything else.I feel dissapointed for the drama could have been and would have ended up being my all time favourites because i love my romantic dramas but this was just too draggy for my taste.Even the angst becomes too much after a few episodes.The story was perfect to make us care,love and end up in tears for the love that could never be but alas the writers were going for a slow melodrama that went slower than a caterpillar.
I mourn for a drama that could have reached higher but landed up in the middle but i still ended up loving it.The romance is the one redeeming factor.
To all those who dropped it because it was draggy or those planning to watch.Just be patient.Use the fast forward button and enjoy the romance because its beautiful and worth every minute..:)

Sad Eyes as a character is like the black knight in shining armour.though our mother says not to fall for such guys we always will.so that's what happens.the heroine falls for the wrong guy and i love this fact.he's a character with such depth that its hard to understand him.Kang Dong Won does a superb job playing 'sad eyes'.his eyes itself seem to speak to the viewer and im waiting for Dong Won to portray sch a character again
the chemistry between the leads is so amazing that its hard to understand how they can even breathe.the string pulled till taut with tension.their eyes speaking to such lenghts that the line between words nd visual blurs.they are like the two sides of a coin.near but still never together.the story shows this aspect accurately.
the music is so befetting to each scene that wthout the music one wouldn't even understnad the hurricane of emotions in the OTP's hearts..
after finishing this al i felt was did i just watch a ballad or an opera.in reality it doesnt even have many dialogues.the body language,the eyes and the actions do much of the talkng in here
this movie has many flaws too.like it doesnt have much of a story and how it gets draggy.the usual stuff but the good points more than overtake the bad ones.
all in all a wonderful piece of art

Its not about this creepy\disgusting relationship between an older guy younger woman but more of this relationship between two people who learn to love like they had never before.
the girl turns the world around for the guy by turning this anti social guy into one who starts coming out of his shell and being comfortable with it
The girl is such a 'bad' girl in all sense that it makes one wonder does such type of girls exist..but it turns out she is human after all..;)..her character growth is so vast from being a girl with no morals to someone who stops being a prostitute after just one meeting with a guy..Its too drastic and that's why i loved it..Sazaki Nonomi is just perfect for this role and so convincing as a sophisticated prostitute and a 17 year old at the same time
Tanihara Sosuki is one good actor.Loved him in love shuffle but here i loved him in his anti social stance who just keeps counting his days left instead of the moments he's lived before the inevitable day comes..
The chemistry is heartbreaking as we see this young girl,her heart full wth love trying to make this man fall in love with her.her aggression and energy makes up for the fact that she is a 17 year old girl..first time in love and that this love is there to stay.She turns into such a kind and caring person that it makes me believe that love turns us into better human beings
the music was so pretty and lovable
The romance will probably stick to me all my life..and it has got one of the best kisses..not the lingering ones i like..but those short ones i rarely love..a few seconds where all falls away and click..its gone but the felings remain..

first of all Kim na huel is a good actress..i loved her in some previous works but here she does a fantastic job of portraying a blind woman.her acting could almost bring tears.that's how good she is.Seung ho is a young actor but he's got potential and does a good job in this one though i hated his hairstyle.keeps one away from noticing how handsome he is..:D
the story revolves around murder and is full of those suspence moments so as to keep you on edge.mind you you won't be able to leave your laptop for a second coz u'd be desperate to know wht's gonna happen..is someone gonna die or is someone goin to be murdered.this movie delivers it all to make it a worthwhile watch
it's one of those movies that will scare you a bit..but at the same time it'l make us remeber the never ending struggle of the human heart to strive for better.to acheive something that the world says one cant.
give this one a try.im sure you will end up liking it..:)

i didnt much like the chracter of the hero in the starting but even he grew up on me and at the last episode i was sold for the guy.Cha Seung won did a good job here.the chemistry between the leads is good.the romance part was handled well
everbody acted their parts well and i loved the political twist to the story.this was a refreshin drama after all the dramas i've seen.it brought something new to my plate and left me happy.the story had enough angst and light moments to keep everything in balance.i loved the subplots in this one.the story was amazing.our heroine was an independent women who knew her place in the world.she differed from the stereotypical korean heroine that i am getting bored off.its nice to watch once in a while a woman who knows how to stand up for herself
i loved shin mi rae who was ready to sacrifice her own happiness for the society.she is one character where we wish we could be as upright and as strong as her.
the only problem hard to swallow was how this middle aged,average looking totally dumb woman changed into this woman who was so strong and full of life.this sudden change was too sudden for me.a person's personality doesnt change that much.even in fictional world
the story does drag in between..it took me almost 7 episodes to get interested to this one but after 13..this drama becomes like a rollercoaster ride where i didnt know what turn it was gona take
the songs were good but repeated so often that at the end i jst wanted them to stop playing it.
i gave it a fair rewatch value because of kim sun ah who's made Shin mi rae so unforgettable
overall it was a refreshing drama..a good one for those who like a political twist to their romance

Actin: Being my first Sean and Esther drama I had no expectations from either of them and frankly I was surprised. Sean is amazing as Sake. I am in love wit his character because he is so charming even when such a devil. He is a perfect blend of snarky, devious, possessive, protective and caring hero. I hated him with such fervour only to fall in love with his character halfway through. You hate him and love him in equal measure and by the end of the show his dastardly ways had given way to a gentle guy who loved our heroine with such deep passion. Coming to Kate, she isn't the smartest or the strongest of the bunch. But Esther is nonetheless a delight to watch. She is a typical heroine so nothing new there but Esther did her justice.
Romance: Spellbinding and achingly slow but a good slow burn. The romance is like a back and forth witty repartee between our leads. It is filled with childish chases around the house to a childlike pigtail pulling in the show. I love the teasing that they continuously engage in and its lovely to watch.
It's a fine line between being a rapist and teasing the heroine and Sean did his well. The romance does have those typical scenes of forces intimacy but given the cultural background, I'd say it is acceptable to a certain extent. The understanding and the care grows out of nights spent baking together rather than lust-addled brains of our hero or the sacrificial lamb-like innocence of our heroine. It is a relationship born out of force but stays due to mutual love, care and understanding.
Even the second lead romantic arc was cute to watch.
Drama: The show had absolute no drama in the in-laws department. The ladies in this drama were so refreshing to watch. The sister-in-law and mother-in-law were not your stereotypes of bitchy women but logical and smart and kind-hearted. Esther herself is a delight to watch in some scenes as this girl has some spunk despite crying throughout the show all the time. I loved the fiancee and hated the ex-wife with a vengeance. There is no girlfriend beating the heroine up here. Apart from Kate's family, most characters were bearable and quite nice in drama which is saying something because Lakorns have the worst kind of villains all the time.
First of all let me state right out that I am not a fan of Esther's crying and this drama had tons and tons of falling down, clumsily falling down, fainting, did I say falling? All the time. Oh Lordy I hated all of that but then this is a Lakorn and therefore to be expected. Her voice is kinda screechy like most drama heroines so she gets a pass there. I cut a 0.5 in my rating precisely because of her screaming and falling down acts. Unnecessary and stupid.
I recommend this to anyone who likes a good romance with a dash of teasing and melodrama mixed in.

this drama is hilarious and creates situations where you laugh so hard that that you can fall from the bed..:D
this drama deals which an older woman younger man relationship.though Sam Soon is fat to the world i dnt find her one at all.she's pretty and has her priorities set straight.she is not like other leads in kdramas where they cry and thnink the guy will come back.she fights for it and this is the reson why sam soon steals the show from jin hun.hyun bin is overshadowed by Kim Sun ah because the woman is just too good at her acting.the leads share a commendable chemistry filled with quirky and tension filled moments.hyun bin had done a good job too as he looks amazing in this drama compared to secret garden.the whole conflicts that come in a drama all have reasons.
the saddest part is the 2nd lead.she's jst as amazing but it all doesnt end up in tragedy and Daniel Henney is a treat to watch
the drama is light and filled with enjoyable moments.:)

The drama suffers from a inconsistent plot but what it lacks in that department it makes up in the other department-romance and addiction.
This drama is not to be looked over for the fact that this is one of the most addictive dramas i have watched in my life. I finished it in flat 1.5 days with few lunch breaks. The plot can be stupid and without any purpose whatsoever but i am a sucker for the kind of romance that this drama takes forward.
I have looked at Ji Sung only in Protect the Boss and he wasnt memorable there but here this man shines. He is the perfect guy to play the stalker-turned-friend-turned-lover. He is the type of guy you would abhor in real life because he is literally a hardcore stalker. ^_^ :D
Hwang Jung Eum shined in Can you hear My Heart and i have to give it to her that she has a very natural way of crying. She may not be the prettiest girl in town but she nails her role as the heroine.
The romance is the type where it hurts staying together and hurts more if staying apart. Its the classic Love-hate relationship and the ambiguous feelings of the heroine kept the relationship interesting.
It was deeply addictive because every second you wanted to know are they gonna start falling in love, now or when or if ever?
Lee Da Hee as Shin Se Yeon is your usual second lead girl but she is a little fresh in that she is always calm. Rarely if ever her calm breaks. However Shin Se Yeon could have been acted better.
I kinda hated Bae Soo Bin in 49 days and my hate solidified into disgust. The guy can't act for sure and his characters are the repetitive types.
It made use of the boring old cliches and tried recycling them. It doesnt bring anything fresh to my screen in terms of writing or plot developments. Many things were way over the top to be taken seriously and the melo does become very ridiculous in the starting episodes.
The best part of the series is that it starts very slowly and then builds on to a crescendo and it only falters in the last 2 episodes.
The one thing that made this an 8 in my book is how crazy one can be when it comes to love/hate/secrets. The protagonists are literally downright crazy. It was awesome seeing Min Hyuk being a crazy wacko guy. I love tragic/crazy/flawed leads a lot.
The music is pretty engaging and lends a nice touch to the whole "secret" that everyone is trying to hide.
Watch it for its addictive pace and the romance which slowly but nicely builds to a nice climax. Enjoy!!!

This drama has an amazing cast from Gong Yoo to Eun hye.All are at their best acting in this drama.Eun Hye who is so feminine,its hard to imagine her as a boy but she pulls off the role amazingly making us realize that she's a good actress who knows how to act.
coming to gong yoo.that guy has a screen presence where its impossible not to notice how he acts to the way he looks in aviators..:D
He really pulls us in on his daddy issues and his confused love with the lead and the 2nd lead.
The plot may seem very mediocre initially but as one proceeds further into the drama we can see the plot is not the main question but basically the growth of the characters.Throughout the drama the characters grow which makes them seem more human with human follies and vices.
the chemistry between the lead is taut with tension where we dont knw if the next moment they are gonna shout at each other or staring at each other with longing.Gong Yoo and Eun Hye really know how to get those tears falling because in this drama there is a lot of angst involved because of the gender bender and other situations.
the music score simply is superb.one could rewatch the show just for the songs.the songs are picked very selectively telling us about the moods the characters are in and since most of them are in english it makes it more amazing because instead of goin online and checking the english lyrics for korean songs we just understnd what the songs are saying
i give it an 8 for the story because everybody has atleast sampled one drama where there is a girl disguising as a guy.The love story of the second leads is equally engrossing and has its highs and lows.There is noone who is as vicious as Se Na(the villain from Rooftop prince) so this drama is a bit light on the nerves where one doesnt feel like killing the ex.
the only thing i found flawed was the extension of the drama by 1 episode which really hurt it beacause the ending was not satisfying to me.the drama does feel a bit dragged in few episodes but if one has the patience im sure they'r not gona regret continuing it.
so go and watch this amazing piece of drama if you havent seen it yet..

A warm romance
Such a warm warm story. A friend recommended it to me and I couldnt stop myself from watching it.This is the kind of story that could almost be categorized as a Slow film. Nothing much happens here if you ask me plot wise.
Plot: the plot isn't anything out of the ordinary, however what really clinches the deal and sets it apart is the fact that this is a film that is devoted and really committed in understanding its characters. it is not a film that meets your expectations from a romantic comedy. its just different in the way it approaches romance. Taking it slow, it takes that phrase literally., There are no jumping out of the bushes, Screaming characters, crazy reveals or anything of the sort here.
The storyline is simple and has often been seen so many times before but this film takes it premise and then adds warm gentle heartbeats, sounds of the river, the sea into them. It Infuses simple, ordinary moments with a kind of rare beauty.
Acting: the acting was just so realistic. One could see the growth of these characters for another 2 hours according to me. Everyone is having a kind of crisis in this film but it isn't articulated through usual cinematic aesthetics. Instead one sees pain rarely articulated but instead so many other emotions can be seen on the face of these characters. The director makes us Care for its characters. That's a talent people rarely have.
Music: THIS IS AN AURAL DELIGHT. The music you will find here, you wont find anywhere else. Why? Because its literally ASMR. The film focuses hugely on your aural sensibilities. Its gets better when you close your eyes.
Rewatch value: Could watch it a thousand more times with my friends. Perfect for DATENIGHT.
