Stupidly disappointing
Nope didn’t like it - was probably expecting too much because of the cast but was sadly disappointed. The main FL having had a break down after dropping out of life except for her online gaming comes back with a bang and an alcohol habit. Being able to get into the head of the perpetrator (we call it profiling) but being outsmarted at every post until the end. In the Insurance business????? This would have been a better storyline set in the police department as they were apparently able to do all the police could. I’m sorry it just didn’t do it for me.Was this review helpful to you?
Sweet Melodrama Rom Com
Okay so I love the leads in this drama - having watched Choi Tae-Joon in so many support roles was excited to see him in a Lead. I do have to say, I feel a little let down in parts (not all) with a certain lack of chemistry, however it did get better towards the end. It may have been the fact his persona had to act aloof from his opposite lead but it did feel a little hmmmmm in parts.That being said, I did like the story line and the ending made it worth the pain of the slower bits of the drama.
OST was nice.

Beautiful
This story although short was a beautifully, well told love story. High school sweethearts (on their own - individually) come together later in life with their own stories of pain and heartache through the dream of one gorgeous little girl. She was so adorable and brilliant at her role. The two Leads and the girl were all brilliant in this drama.Loved the wonderful way these two leads worked together to make this drama a wonderful story. The cast were magnificent and although short, the director did an amazing job at bringing this story to life.
The chemistry between the two leads was so good and although I’m not a huge fan of ML Yoon Park, I loved him in this story. FL Choi Soo Young never disappoints. Love love love her. ♥️

Suspenseful but brilliant
I loved this drama was romantic with a twist and the two Leads did a brilliant job at playing their parts. To watch them develop and grow into two individuals who learn to love and open their hearts to each other was a story to be told and I loved watching it evolve.The suspense was the twist and it’s curious to see this side unfold.
Music was pretty.
I have to say I hate writing nothing for the sake of the 500 characters people…..
Rewatch - I probably will on a rainy day with nothing else to do. ?

Disappointing
I have to say that I’d be lying if I told you that this kept me glued. I was disappointed (as it seems were many) with the way this drama unfolded. I too expected the whole thing to go to the heights only to watch it come crashing and then almost draw to a.complete stop for me. I was excited to see the cast members and expected (apparently) too much from the drama. HOping that it was going to end well I kept going and in the end it did do a little better but not before almost failing completely for me. I have to say that I feel like either the writer or the director let this one down. The cast seemed to do well.The Acting was done well and the cast were stellar. I’m just sad about the storyline or the way it unfolded, this had nothing to do with the actual actors though.
Rewatch value - maybe I’ll watch it again but I feel like I’d probably drop it around episode 6 on the 2nd time around.

Not for me
Okay so it’s not often that I agree with the negative feedback on drama’s especially my k-drama’s but I have to say. I do on this one.The actors were why I watched it - love love love Song Kang and others in this drama but the story for me fell short, way short of what I was expecting. That and the fact that, as others have already said, “too unrealistic” in the story and the characters. That’s not the actors fault but the writers.
So this one is definitely a “never watch again” for me.

So Brilliant
This was brilliant….. Just loved the writer’s ability to tell the background story whilst in modern day times without too much tooling and froing. The actors also did brilliantly. Love love loved both Nana and Jang Dongyoon, they made me stay. Their chemistry is EVERYTHING, hoping for more projects of them together. They compliment each other really well!!. Side characters had such great character development as well. I cannot fault the director on this one. So so good, rewatch value a 10/10Was this review helpful to you?

Not on my rewatch list
OMG - watched this because I love the actors in it. Disappointed greatly at the way modern thinking presented in media today has turned our culture where a sacred union called marriage between 2 people has been turned into living however you like because “love doesn’t last”. What a farce!!!! Hate to break it to you people but Love is NOT A FEELING it’s an Active decision that we CHOOSE TO DO. Laying down our own selfish desires for that of the other person. This generation today need to wake up and realise how far we’ve come from the sacred union of loving each other for the other person’s sake into the complete and utter self-centred way if life today. The wonder why they’re never happy. You can’t be happy while living selfishly.Was this review helpful to you?
No romance here…..
Soooo good ? Love Park Min Young and Kim Myung Min. Both were brilliant right to the end.I also appreciated the fact there was no romance between them, although it was hinted at. This storyline had such a redemptive ending that you need to watch to appreciate.
The director and writer did such a great job with this piece. Thank you. ♥️

Amazing
I love both Jung Il Woo and Go Ah Ra. They were just as amazing in this drama as usual. Loved both his and her character development throughout. Feeling pity for his brothers, even Tan. This is a truly wonderful story…… I did struggle at times to get through the 48 episodes but it’s still deserving of the 9 stars rating…Was this review helpful to you?
Sweet story - a little draggy
Okay, I’m a fan of Ji Hyun Wu and Im Su Hyang (my ID Is Gangnam Beauty) This drama, albeit long in many ways (man I dragged my feet watching with all the different storyline’s in it) was a worthwhile watch. The actors did an amazing job (some of the side actors were a little ‘hohum’ in their roles but for the most part the actors were amazing. The writer, I feel could have made this a little shorter if the plot had not been so elaborate with all the side stories - could have been a little shorter. The mother and son duo frustrated me so much especially with the surprise showing up. (No spoilers here). In the end - I was so happy to finally finish it. Happy ending without spoiling too much. ?Was this review helpful to you?
Cutesy
I enjoyed this drama and all the characters in it. The side storyline, although short were definitely sweet. Not like other drama’s where they can often outshine the main characters. The M and FL were done well, although I’m a fan of both, he can definitely do with a different persona - he’s almost been typecast into the stiff upper lip type of character. This was fine for this drama but I’d love to see him in another style of character.A little disappointing was the ending.

A Cute J-Drama
Not one to watch many Japanese dramas, I found this one and because it was only 8 episodes long, decided to give it a go.I’m so glad I did.
A cute story of a couple starting in a contract marriage and working out what they truly wanted in life…… I’ll leave you to find out what happens in the end. Overall, I cannot fault it. I did wonder at some point whether he can truly read her mind……. The actors did an amazing job at their roles and I was so glad I found it and watched it.

Wasted 40 hrs of my life
I should have read the review on this before I watched it. I literally kept thinking it’s going to get better, the writer will develop her character (FL) they did NOT.I watched it to its completion and still felt at a loss with both girls life choices.
I mean seriously, they could have made very traditional choices and still been very happy but selfishness is like that……. Making the choice you think will make you happy and in the end it’s never enough.
The Forgiveness aspect was lost on this drama - I guess the author/writer didn’t or doesn’t understand that ‘forgiveness’ in its true form benefits the one forgiving not the perpetrator. With that understanding, this story could have actually ended much better and had a redeeming ending, unlike the wasted 40 hours of my life that was……

So enticing - it will truly grab you.
This was such an amazing story.The writer is so good. To be able to draw you in continuously and then do it again is truly a talent.
The actors were amazing. Both ML and FL were brilliant. I love Park So Dam and Jang Hyuk. Have watched many drama’s with them separately. They never disappoint me.
To say I enjoyed the medical side is too little - the added mystery is a bonus. Then to put into this the tragedy of misinformation which then determines ones destiny is resounding. Life is to be lived and to love others - without it we are nothing. The fact the ML was determined to change, or attempt to, shows he wanted to love and follow this strange feeling of attraction that he never had encountered before.
To round it up I’ve rewatched this already and would do it again……..
