It's only been done so far in TWO dramas where I didn't want to kill myself (although, I did want to at first in each one) but fortunately it aided to the plot development, instead of dragging us back to square one.. So. Point is.. I think, it may actually WORK in NG. After the mental cringe when I knew it was coming.. the way they met again outside his house.. was beautiful. And while I was sitting there thinking to myself I hate this I hate this I hate this... unwilling.. I started crying... I don't cry very often in dramas unless it shocks and surprises me into tears.. so.. I'm going to go on that feeling.. *End Spoilers*

i hate it too veryveryvery much which was why i'm like wtf is this .... but i do gotta say they did it really beautifully ... i didnt cry but i got teary

what the heck?****An 11 month time jump and lets throw in some amnesia.***what a weird twist for the story to take. Well I guess that leaves lots of explaining to do in the next episode >.<

I like his messy hair better

Well I wasn't surprised by it because it was in the synopsis. I would've liked to be surprised. But well, I think that, considering, they did it quite nicely, I completely agree with SeRose! And it will be cool to see what will happen from here, I think that in this instead of being used as a way of erasing the plot progression, it opens more possibilities for what comes next

this drama is not as great as i expected it... i admit i forgot the amnesia part of the synopsis. if only ive read the synopsis carefully i might not watch this. LOL. but anyways, i already started it and the first few eps are great and i got hooked because of SJK's acting. ill give this drama another chance and watch an ep or two.

I try to never read the synopses.. preferring instead to be surprised.. Good thing I'd made it so far in, and am already hooked.. Had I already known this plot development was coming, I may not have watched..

Well, as I was discussing with Nina, Ma Ru is supposed to be like that, you know? He's like the good boy gone bad that only does stupid things but you can't help but root for him because he's the main character!!!

Gotta love a good baddie. It's something few shows do well with their main character. Usually when they're "bad" it's because they're just written as "number 1 jerk". I like how this gives us something so much more with Maru's character. The fact that he's super good looking WHILE you want to kick him in the shins is... Just... phew.. nice. :P
