Trailer:



The drama starts airing in October following "Master's Sun"
they've really stacked the deck here, it would have to suck pretty hard to get people to stop watching.
I am probably the only one who's not going to watch this overrated drama and if I did; I will drop it halfway.
i'll be watching this mainly because the cast is just so good and i'm pretty sure everyone else plans to watch this just for the amazing cast too and not for the plot .... plot sounds like a typical rich boy poor naive girl story
The story really isn't anything new... there's lots of dramas with rich guys falling for 'poor' woman, but I'm still going to watch it cause of Lee Min Ho.
Secretly I am thrilled to see this one! I love Lee Min Ho en mister Na Heul. But I also keep it in the back of my mind that it depends on the story, the acting etc etc if I continue this drama when I am watchin it. Maybe it is really overrated but you can only know this when you watch it. We all didnt... But I am excited to watch this drama :).
I know it's rated high before even starting and that it will probably be shallow but the fact that Lee Min Ho is the male lead and the writer of Secret Garden is writing this one; I am impatiently waiting for it!
I agree, the synopsis sounds pretty mediocre and first I just wanted to see it for the cast. But after I heard that the Secret Garden writer is writing it, I still have hope it will be better than I imagined it would be :).

*High-Five*

If I decide to watch it, it's probably just so I can actually say it's bad and not have people tell me I need to watch it in order to decide that.
Watching this for Kim Woo Bin and his character best be firing some witty comments because even though I loved A Gentlemans Dignity [same writer], I'm not intrigued by idea of watching actors in their midtwenties playing rich -exceptforthemaingirl- highschoolers stuck in a love triangle with a stepmother here and a halfbrother there for 20 episodes. Yet I can see myself glued to the screen oh God ಠ__ಠ
i´m just curious: why don´t you want to watch it? and if you watch it, why would you drop it halfway? don´t you like the plot? or the actors/actrisses? i mean, i think i would try every Drama if its not such a horrible plot, and if i don´t like it i would just drop it :D well, i said: i´m just curious ;D
yes, they have to accept it. if you haven´t watched it and would say it´s bad because of the plot, they could say to just give it a try, but you don´t have to watch it, since it´s just an offer. but if you have watched it and think it´s bad, they can´t tell you to watch it. :D
i'm cvautiouslt optimistic. i hope it's awesome but i am prepared for the suckage.

ahaha i'm prepared for disappointment too, thank gawd if this suks kim soo hyun comes right after ;)
i have a feeling this will be like you're beautiful or boys over flowers, they're fun to watch once, but dont try to rewatch because then you'll notice all the wtf moments that were lost in the newness of it the 1st time around.
