This drama was very conflicting, I couldn't decide if I liked it or not. First of all the story was poor, and I mean very poor. I had gone into watching this drama knowing this and having read other reviews along the same lines..but seriously the plot was very contrived. It also reminded me of Kim Sam Soon, where they have a marriage contract, go to juju island, exes come to fore etc... I feel like this drama maybe swapped screenwriters half way through because from episodes 1-7 I was hooked, it was funny, it was sweet and a good beginning of a great drama. But then halfway through EVERYTHING got resolved, it was like they basically threw the plot out the window and started anew, and also from this point on we get boring cutesy moments not take your breath away moments. The acting, was amazing, I already knew that Yoon Eun Hye was a great actress (Coffee Prince) and I completely fell in love with Kang Ji-Hwan. But really this was all that this drama offered me was to watch these actors interact, because the plot was basically non-existent. The music was pretty good I thought, if not much variety. I know I got the karaoke song stuck in my head for a couple of days for sure. It was so sweet! I will definitely rewatch a few key scenes in this drama, e.g the coke kiss, the karaoke kiss but really I would not rewatch the series. Despite this I gave the rating of 7/10 overall because it gave me this guilty pleasure of watching them (especially Kang Ji-Hwan) in action, and the best two kiss scenes I have ever seen! *Daydreams some more* But definitely I think you should watch this drama if you want a fluffy drama with great actors, just don't expect much from it.
