I just started watching this recently. It's on Crunchyroll if anyone wants to stream it (: (I also know a site that you can download it from)

Has anyone else watched this or wanted to watch this? It's an older drama, so maybe not. I've seen 2 episodes of it so far and I like it. It's definitely a Cinderella type story, too.

I have seen now nearly every episode ( at least most parts of all). First i must say that music in this drama is very good, it is natural part of it and some songs...might start haunt you. It is older drama, one of them what started fame of Korean drama. Cast is very fitting into roles and actors really can act. Script is well written and keeps you interested til end. Some drama fan should say that there is many clishes but... when this drama was done thous wherent clishes jet. Btw. story isnt all tears and misery, it has alot of comedy and fun too. If i can find someday better quality stream, i definitely rewatch it.

The music is really good! I'm loving it (:

It's a Cinderella type story so there's bound to be some cliches, but I like the way they bring them out in this drama. It's a nice change of pace from the overdramatic modern Kdrama :p

You can watch it on Crunchyroll, but as far as I know that's the only site that you can stream it from. I downloaded the drama so the quality is slightly better, but since it's an older drama it's not perfect or close to it. But I'd rate it as "good" quality (:

I liked thous songs too...i like all soundtrack <3 but chosed post thous 2 bc there isnt video. Some ppl have bad connection and then MV is hard to watch/listen. I would be happy if more ppl ( and i mean younger ppl) watched this drama. I dont get why some ppl complain about out of date fashion and surroundings in old dramas.....when thay watch some historical drama from joseon period they doesnt expect characters there drive cars, wear latest fashion and talk with mobiles or using internet, why they want to see all this when drama is about 80-90th? Old dramas should be watched like periodical ones, with authentic setting. p.s. thanks for review,Crazy4You, it was very injoyable <3

I liked the whole soundtrack, too (:
Ohh even with music videos if your connection isn't that good you can always change the quality to 240p or 360p which makes it load faster but with poorer quality.

I'm 19 and I really enjoyed this drama (: I agree with you, I get that older dramas aren't for everyone, just as period dramas aren't for everyone, but I feel that to neglect watching a drama you might like based on when it came it is silly. I can understand when it comes to being able to find it or not, but when it's right at your fingertips there's no excuse not to at least try it out (: Older dramas are so underrated.

And I'm glad you enjoyed my review (:
