I've been thinking of watching this for a really long time, but I didn't really have high hopes, cause I had read some negative reviews about it. I started it on a whim and turns out I was watching it the whole day and couldn't wait to finish it.
Story: I really liked the plot. When I first read it, I thought ok girl falls in love with her boss, that's new... But the way their relationship develops, the whole story in general, the characters, not only the main characters but also the supporting ones, their stories are all very nice and interesting and I really really enjoyed watching it.
Negative point: At some points you might think that things are dragging out too much. And in my opinion they do. This drama could have fewer episodes. The other negative thing, is that the episodes are really long. If you like watching a drama after it's completed, like I usually do, and wanna watch more than one episode a day, you'll probably get a bit tired at some point.
Acting/Cast: 9/10. Almost everyone was great. Aaron played his role sooo well!!! The other main and supporting actors were extremely good as well. Also, there are many good actors in this, like Hsieh Isa and Shen Meng Sheng. At some point I thought Kuo Puff's acting was too much, but yeap, only a couple of times. This doesn't get a 10 out of 10 from me, cause I didn't really like Lin Lyla. She is the main antagonist in this. Although you'll probably really really hate her, I think it's the character. Ding Jia Yu is probably one of the worst antagonists I've seen in all 6 years of watching asian dramas. I think the role was too big for Lin Lyla, she wasn't really good. But I just checked her profile and found out she's really young and this is probably her 1st drama (how did she get such a big role?) so I think, and hope, she'll improve in the future.
Music: I don't really have much to say, I really liked most of the songs. Too bad Aaaron only sang one song in this drama.
Rewatch value: I'd definitely rewatch this drama. It has both funny and sad sences, and some really cute and sweet ones. You can definitely fall in love with the characters, not only the main ones, but almost everyone. They are all so unique and cute in their own, adorable way.
Overall, I really liked it and I'd recommend it. Really nice story, very good cast and music. Eveyone did a good job in this drama, you should give it a try!! ^_^

Story: I just loved the plot. It was really interesting, since it wasn't all about love and romance but mainly because of the mystery around the actions of a certain classmate. It's one of those stories, where you can't be sure you have figured it out (and you probably haven't, and you'll find out the truth only in the end). Plus, it's not all about the main couple. Personally, I love romantic stories, and I would like a better ending for these two, but, oh well, it wasn't bad. Not lovey dovey but not bad or sad either.
+ point: the flashbacks. I love stories with flashbacks. A few short flashbacks are nice and interesting.
Acting: As I've already said, I watched the drama because of Nakayama Yuma and he was the only one I knew from the cast. Now, he was good, he portrayed his character really well and has definitely improved. As for the rest of the cast, they weren't bad, but there were scenes where you could see that most of them need some improvement. But they are all really young. :)
Music: I really liked it!! Really, really nice!
The opening song, by Nakayama Yuma is that typical j-pop song, probably most j-pop fans will like it. I personally listen to it all the time since I started watching the drama. Same goes for the song Parade by Matchbox Twenty, really really good choice as well.
Rewatch Value: I would probably rewatch the drama. It's a good teen drama. Of cource it won't be that interesting the second time, since we know what happens in the end, but personally I'd like to watch the main "couple" again. ^_^ I also liked the fact that the episodes are really short, so you don't get tired that easily.

Many people said it here. This drama started out good. Like, really good. Interesting plot, and characters. And then, all hell of bad drama writing breaks loose. I couldn’t believe my eyes, how bad this drama turned out to be, and how long it dragged. As someone said here before, cut out all the useless drama in here and this could have ended in 14 to 16 episodes. Story: It wasn’t the most original plot ever. However, there were some unexpected… surprises. Like the marriage (will not say more, or this’ll be a spoiler).
Other than that, this drama, full of some of the most annoying clichés in the history of asian dramas. Like, no matter what sh*t the antagonists puts you through, the main couple is always kind etc. Le Si’s stupidity in this matter was beyond annoying.
And since it went from 23-25 (if I remember correctly) that this drama was originally supposed to have, to 20, the ending was of cource 100% expected, and, in my opinion, quickly and poorly made.
Although, I have to say this, the side characters, especially the couples were really funny and cute ^_^
Acting/ cast. Both good and bad. I am a fan of Aaron. That’s the only reason I kept watching this. And whether you’re his fan or not, I think that everyone would agree, he played his part really well. Other great actors, Tao Mama, Butler Fu (gotta love that guy!), and, for me, Lance was good as well. I hated Tao Le Si’s character and Li Tia’s unacceptable “acting” made things even worse. Huan Huan was really annoying as well, but consider her role, that was well kinda the point. The actress was far from great (I couldn’t stand her when she shouted), but still, better than Li Tia.
Music: Not much to say here. Love the ost! great songs from aaron and the other artists.
Rewatch value: No thank you, once is enough.
From all the comments here, in these 4 months we’ve been watching this drama, I think the majority found it disappointing/ boring/ a waste of time. Some others liked it. For me as well, it was disappointing, but there are dramas far more worse than this. It wasn’t boring though, not really. A couple of unexpected events, every now and then… Well, in the future, I hope to see Aaron and the other good actors in this, in more and better dramas!

I’m not really a huge fan of crime dramas, I started it because of the main cast and because the plot seemed interesting. And I absolutely loved it. I think you’re going to like this drama, whether you’re a fan of the genre or not.
You will be constantly asking yourself questions, trying to understand what had happened, what is missing, who is who, how are the characters connected and always looking forward to the next episode.
Story: The story in itself is really interesting. Different kinds of murder cases that the team had to solve, each of them eventually bringing the main leads and the viewers closer to the truth. The episodes are suspenseful, in my opinion this drama never dragged on, instead I think most of the episodes ended with huge cliffhangers, and I couldn’t wait for next weeks’ episodes. And although, because of the genre, there are bound to be a lot of scary and sad scenes, there were always some really funny and amusing scenes in each episode. Romance doesn’t really play a huge part in this, don’t expect romantic cheesy scenes or heroic acts of love etc etc. However you can see how their feelings slowly develop and the interactions between the main couple are really clever, funny, and cute.
Acting/Cast: The cast for this drama was really on point. Each actor suited their role, and the acting was really good, from the cute little young siblings, to all the guest stars and, of course, the main actors. I am a fan both of Jang Na Ra and Seo In Guk, and their acting definitively lived up to my expectations and their characters suited them. The young actor Park Bo Gum (playing lawyer Jung Seon Ho) did an amazing job, as his role was really demanding, proving that he is definitely worth keeping an eye on. I look forward to seeing him in more main roles.
To the fans of the actors in the drama, you are not going to be disappointed by their characters and their acting, and to the non fans – well, this drama may as well mess up your bias list just a little bit.
Music: Lovely OST! My favorites are Remember by Dear Cloud and It Shows (????) by Hong Dae Kwang, which really suited the drama and had me singing out loud every time.
Rewatch value: This drama is definitely worth rewatching over and over again.

This is the first drama I've rated before finishing it (I believe I rated it after the first couple episodes :P ) and gave it a 10, and, sadly, it proved me wrong.
However, I strongly believe that this is not a drama when there can be a majority saying that it's good or bad, like it can happen with many other dramas and that's because, in this case, I believe it is all a matter of ones opinion and plots/twists/characters that he/she likes. I never though of dropping it, I always looked forward to the next episodes, it just didn't turn out to be as great as I thought.
As many people have said in here (and I strongly agree) that this drama started out great!! During the first episodes, I believe most of us were like I can't wait till next week, or I really don't know how this is going to end, or I really can't decide what couple to ship. But it kinda lost it during the next episodes. And since I can't spoil it for those of you who haven't watch it yet, I'll say again, that this is one of those dramas were I can't generally say that it's good or bad. It didn't end the way I personally wished it would, but I there are a lot of viewers who were really happy and satisfied with the ending.
Story: Like I said, started out really great! I didn't get, like, really bad afterwards, I just think it could be better. There were a couple of interesting twists though, along the way.
PLUS: If you're a fun of medical dramas, I think you're really like this one. All the surgeries and stuff, I just loved it!
Acting/Cast: I gave it a 9, cause there are really some great actors in this, but I didn't like the female lead at all. Jin Se Yeon has gotten some big roles and we've had a chance to see her work, and my opinion for her hasn't changed. I find her a one dimensional actress, she's just the same in every character she portrays and it was really tiring to watch her in this drama
Music: Not much to say here, I think the music was really nice ^_^
Rewatch value: As I've said before, it depends on whether one's satisfied with the ending or not. But, all those medical sences were really a plus. I could rewatch this for those ^_^

So for the reasons I watched it, this drama was exactly what I needed. It’s easy to watch, because every episode is about 50 minutes long, it has everything that one can expect from a korean drama, as mentioned, flashbacks, misunderstandings, as well as romantic and moving moments, hilarious situations and characters and a really nice ost.
Story: What can be considered a minus about this drama is that everything happened quite fast, due to the fact that there were only 10 episodes. Now I said above that I was in the mood for a short drama and that’s why I watched it, so that fact is ok with me. All I’m saying is that this could be a drama of about 15 episodes, cause the past of the main couple played a huge role, and in order to fit everything in 10 episodes, everything is done pretty fast.
Cast and acting: not much to say here, I think all actors did a great job. It was a pretty good cast.
Music: This OST is really great! I really liked the songs (except one, I think). Also, if you’ve watched dramas with flashbacks that last for several episodes, you’ll notice that they usually play again and again a song that was popular during the time of the flashbacks. In that case it was “good person” by Toy and I loved it. Most kpop fans know this as a cover from super junior. ^_^
Rewatch value: Overall, I really liked this drama and I could watch it again, for there are some pretty funny and sweet scenes it.
So if you’re in the mood for a short, funny, romantic korean drama I definitely recommend this!
