I enjoyed the more mature/realistic intense storyline for a change. My last couple of dramas were of the 5Star comedic light weight variety ...,"Soulmate".....The Woman Who Still Wants To Get Married"..., Sungkyunkwan Scandal , so it was past time for a more serious drama. KSW and KSS did not disappoint and were the reason for the 9.5 rating, otherwise a 8.5. If you liked "All In"...,"A Time To Kill"...."A Man’s Story" ...just something different, you’ll probably like this..

It started off with a solid 9 for me. I thought the plot was enticing and the chemistry between the leads were great but then when it hit around episode 16 the plot seemed to be going on in circles. It was hard for me to get through the last couple of episodes.
Nonetheless, the drama is still very good. You might not find the last episodes to be a drag like me and enjoy them very much. Overall, this drama is great love story between two people who are connected by fate. You have a great story and a great cast. Kwon Sang Woo does an amazing job and I found his character to be very interesting to me.
I wouldn't particularly watch this drama again. If I did, it would be to go back to certain scenes with the leads (CHEMISTRY!!) but other then that I don't see me re-watching this anytime soon.
(Off note, It was very frustrating seeing the female lead get beat down for some of the things that happened. And when I say frustrating I mean it. I almost wanted to jump in the drama and tell some of the characters off.)

I wish the ratings given here were much higher. Honestly, this drama is underrated!!!
Perhaps for young adults below 25 the drama would be mature to deal with, perhaps not, but for older audiences drama would be great and you will enjoy it immensely. I am still shaken by it.
All main actors, not only super handsome but also great acting in it. I honestly felt all the emotions portrayed in this story. What was great about this drama was the fact that deep in your heart you knew things were wrong and should not be done, but you understood and fell for the characters of the story and no sides were taken as both were justified and understood why it happen. This was a deep drama as I call it. Love, emotions, consequences, hurt, guilt and forgiveness played a huge role in this series. The drama effected me very much. I loved the level of maturity in it, the way things were presented. The main actress and main male leads did a wonderful job till the end!
This drama will be on the list of one of the great dramas that people should watch to see what happens when one wrong step is made and there is no return back but only consequence and regret is left afterwards.... This drama is a must watch!

The music in this drama is Great, (I'm sad because I can't find it in app store). The rewatch value is bellow 5 because I would skip many episodes I just would watch it to see KSW.

Não é ruim, mas tb não é bom
Não foi um drama de todo ruim, mas tb não foi um drama bom.. os primeiros 10 episódios tem todo o meu coração.. do 11 ao 20, achei pura enrolação.. esse drama poderia ter tido 12 episódios q seriam mais que suficientes.Uma coisa q achei curiosa: teve a cena “de cama” dela com o ex.. teve pegacao dele com a ex em q eles até tiram as roupas no elevador.. mas entre os protagonistas só teve 1 beijo. Não mostrou mais nada. Nem na reconciliação teve beijo. Ela em cena beijou mais o Lee Soo Hwan que o Kang Yong Gi. Será q eles se odiavam na vida real? Kkkkkkkkk questões.
Nota 3/5

The bad kind of melodrama
This is the bad kind of melodrama. Not a single likable character. People calling it mature but these characters are the farthest thing from being mature. It had the chance to be different. For a second I though they wouldn't force a break up but it went with the classic melo move. By episode 9 my interest was almost nonexistent.Exhausting melodrama full of oppositions and lacks proper balance. But what's even more exhausting is the unbelievable frustration of seeing female lead running away repeatedly non-stop.
From start to finish she kept running and pushing ML away, I'm beyond done with this immature behavior.
They introduced Park Shin Young in the second half because there wasn't enough "story" remained to push for another 10 episodes. Her existence brought the drama down even further.

À medida que suas vidas se entrelaçam, o amor que surge entre eles é intensamente apaixonado, mas também doloroso e destrutivo, envolvendo traição, perda e sacrifício.Cruel Love destaca-se por seu tom emocionalmente pesado e por personagens que estão constantemente em conflito entre seus sentimentos e suas circunstâncias.
