I honestly enjoyed it very much, was light, funny, comic, amusing, romantic, sad, sexy and deep thoughts about family and love. It had a lot of good things going on and they were able to tell a good story, with a good balance.
Some things were not exactly necessary, some scenes or actions of the characters but i guess they made sense in the writers head so i’m not gonna argue with that. The cast was great to watch, they did an amazing job, the female lead was very well chosen, she’s such a cutie, i fell in love with her at first sight :) She’s so pretty and those eyes...i mean who wouldn’t fall for her?
All the male co stars were very good too, such a handsome and fun bunch of guys. The characters evolve as the story unravels and their bonds go deeper, both for family and love. I mean that family has some deep issues that need to be fixed ASAP and her coming into their lives actually helped to give that extra push for them to be closer as a family.
It's enjoyable and has comedy and romance in equal measures, they give spotlight to some sensitive matters but treat them with actual respect so it was a plus for me to watch that.
(THIS IS NOT A SPOILER because i am not telling the whole scene and just a tiny bit, an action that was actually hillarious to me so proceed reading at your own risk XD)
There’s this one scene i think it’s just genius and kudos to the writer for that one, when they are both so drunk and alone that their true feelings start to surface, they are super funny omfg i can’t even explain how good that scene was for me XD the way he just says to her “saranghaeyo” while being that drunk and she replies “shut up” and "take a hike" ditching him straight up, it’s just priceless! <3

I mean i never thought that a story about several women with life issues and emotional problems, would be solved so quickly by hiring a handsome guy (who is a bit of a clean freak XD) to come clean their houses and voilá, problems solved and they were all enlightned at the end and made powerful life changes and resolutions after just one visit! But i loved it!
The story is fresh and different and i might say a bit casual too but it works when you mix it all together in a box XD
I mean those fingers and lips really do work their magic lol Can i order one of those to come clean my heart and my house? XD
This whole drama was a sweet thing to watch, not perfect but that is what gives it identity, the story is light, funny, cute and it has some serious topics discussed in it but nothing too deep or very depressing.
Loved the acting and those funny and awkard moments too, made my day much brighter!
If only all the problems of life could be solved by calling this guy to hour house, that would be just perfect! XD
In overall it's quite a charming drama to watch and it will change your mood to a much better one after you watch it.
I guarantee it!
Just go watch it and be happy! :D

because for me, it's one of Bae Susy's best dramas. I think she did a really good job and had improved her acting skills quite a lot. And the drama itself is on my top 10 easily compared to other dramas i have watched recently. It holds a very good place and memory in my heart.
The story is nothing out of the woods, its good and refreshing in some aspects and i enjoyed it very much. The lead couple worked very good on the chemistry, i loved them, they looked very good together and they did tell the story in a very plausible and emotional way.
The chemistry between all the actors was natural and i personally didn't felt any strange vibes or awkward moments, at least nothing serious that would ruin the fun of watching the drama until the end.
Kudos to the actor who played the vilain because i never wanted to virtually slap someone so hard and so bad as i did when i watched this drama XD (sorry but it's true). I cringed so much every time i saw him come on the screen hahaha But that only shows that he did a terrific job at his part and made the show even better!
For me this drama is a must watch, it's a beautiful story and every actor played their part really well and made the whole thing a very good piece of art.
Good cinematography too, those scenes and shots were carefully planned and made such a huge difference.
Oh and can i just say that the OST in this drama is just FABULOUS!!! I LOVED IT!
I mean, i got chills of how good it was, it gave this drama a mood you can't get rid of!

It was the very first K-Drama i watched and where i fell in love with the korean actor Lee Min Ho.
It was quite a way to be introduced to this world of dramas and i loved it!
This drama to me has a special meaning because it was my very first and it will forever be my absolute favourite but of course it's not perfect, it has flaws and the story could be better. But i enjoyed it so much and it opened the doors for me to a whole other world.
After this one i have watched countless dramas from different countries and nationalities but i always look back with a sweet spot for Boys Over Flowers.
The story is more than cliché but it's capable of grabbing your attention through the whole show.
I loved the whole cast, they did an amazing job, awesome chemistry between the leads and we all have to admit, no matter what, we are always suckers for a good love story with a bit of drama on the mix to make things harder for the main couple XD just admit it now, you know it's true :P
This show also had mixed feelings for me because i had a heavy second male lead syndrome here, i love lee min ho but Kim Hyun-joong stole my heart also and i shipped him hard with the female lead XD How i suffered!
But at the end this drama gave me so much and so many beautiful memories that i love it no matter it's flaws and i strongly recomend people to watch it at least once in their lifetime.
It's a gem that will age very well :P

My favourite drama of all time, for sure!
I cannot say when was the last time i saw a drama like this and fell in love with it from the beginning to the end, was so well done.
The chemistry between the actors is always there, between all of them and kudos for the main couple, even tho the female lead is younger than her male lead co star and has less experience, she was sooo good at it, i mean she has such potential she can mesmerize you with just one look, her eyes spoke in every scene with such emotion it gave me chills. I loved it!
The male lead is also fantastic, he has way more experience of course and many acting skills under his belt already but he still surprised me on how good and natural his acting is and he was so good with his younger female co star, they worked very well together. He is such a handsome cute bear :D i just wanted to hug him all the time and wished i was in her shoes XD (shame on me i know lol but i really couldn’t help it, i fell in love with him and her <3)
The story itself develops at a nice pace, i have no complaints what so ever and the whole production and special effects were through the roof on this one as well, major skills there and a great investment on the directors and writters part, i as a viewer was both delighted and honored to be able to see it and enjoy this drama so much :)
The characters grow as the story goes as well, it deals with a lot of issues between life and death, pain and betrayal but also has a kind and comic side to it, some funny and heart warming moments to balance the mood set through the story and it's really well done, as to not always be sad and heavy, nor is it too bubbly and happy all the time. A good and perfect balance between the 2.
It's a love story, a very deep one no less but it ends up also being so much more at the end of the day. It pans out into so many branches and possibilities, as we see the characters lives get mixed up together, all the problems and obstacles that show up and mess up their peace of mind.
I got hooked up with this drama from day one and i couldn’t stop myself from doing a marathon with all the episodes until i finished. I was just so drawn into the story and the main couple i couldn’t look away, i always wanted more, i wanted to know what was gonna happen next, with all of them.
I laughed, i got second hand embarassment, i giggled like a crazy girl fangirling about something cute, i actually got excited to get a decent kiss and some real intimate demonstration for affection from the main couple, i was surprised and shocked with some revelations, all the joy and sadness, i cried my eyes out so bad for the whole thing, i felt the love and it warmed my heart deeply, it was really a roller coaster of emotions for me.
When i ended watching it i was no longer the same person and i loved this drama for it.
(Just a side note, i mean i know that they were portraying a big age difference between the main leads and they wanted to keep it pure and innocent until she “officially” was an adult in the story but c’mon, i’ve seen younger actors and people do way worse things on tv shows when they are playing love scenes - and i’m leaving the skinship out of this conversation ok?- but a good and normal passionate kiss wont kill or steal someones innocence for gods sake. What goes on in these peoples minds completely amazes me and not in a good way. I mean people in love they kiss, they hug, it's not like i’m asking them to get naked and have some more steamy moments but a bit more intimacy like all couples have. I guess another reason was also the judgement from the korean viewers, people often discriminate about these things and public demonstrations of affection as well. It gets me triggered a bit i mean, its just a kiss or a hug, if you want to show someone you love them, even in public, there shouldn’t be any judgement, its not like they are committing a crime for fricking sake. Geshhh people, you see worse things on the streets everyday and you don’t judge as much, go figure T_T I’ll stop ranting now, sorry XD)
My heart was never the same after watching it. It raised way high my stakes on dramas to a whole new level and i’m afraid nothing coming after it can even begin to compare.
I highly recomend it and to watch it a milion times over and over, until your heart and soul are both content XD

But with that said, this drama was very nice to watch, it has a cute story, both leads have a bond since they were young but they don’t know it and by fate they meet up again years later and end up working together.
The female lead works as an aspiring writer for a radio show and the male lead works as a famous cold and arrogant actor. He also has insomnia and barely has a good night sleep or sleeps at all, even tho he takes medication to sleep.
Funny things start to unravel between the two as they start to work together, him starting to learn how to be less cold and inside of his own shell and she grows into a good and confident writer, while both start to have feelings for each other.
Later on, they discover and remember things from the past and the feelings between them get deeper.
There are so many heart warming moments in this show that its really nice to see.
Both the male and female leads have great chemistry and they are so cute together you cant help but like them and enjoy this drama.
The side characters are also entertaining so it helps to keep the drama balanced and not everything is about the melomelo of the romantic part.
You have to watch this at least once in your life, if you believe in fate and how meeting someone can actually change your life for the best.
You will end up with a filled and warm heart after watching this :)

I fell in love with this drama, the music is great, amazing actors, the story is actually not that bad and they set it in motion for a very good start.
But alas something got lost in between the lines and the only bad thing i have to say about this drama is the ending. Not gonna say why obviously, no spoilers allowed in my reviews but i just wanted to point that out. So that people prepare their weak hearts for that moment XD
It had such great possibilities, so much potential, a good story, awesome lead actors for the main couple, loving chemistry, such nice puzzle pieces put together, the pace of the story and the side characters were on point.
I mean, i know it sounds bad but it is still a very good drama to watch, don't get me wrong, i really enjoyed watching it. But they showed me the pearl inside the box and then took it away before the end and that really made me upset XD You know what i mean? I wanted that pearl to be mine, forever! lol
Still i recomend you guys to watch it, it's worth your time.
Just keep an open mind and brace yourselves for any flaws you find along the way :P
