FINALLY!!!

I would like to say THANK YOU to the director, Lee Myung Woo, who directed an actual passionate kissing seen between Ga Young and Young Gul.



I almost feel sorry for Jae Hyuk...almost



Anna is just sad.



WOW...By the end of this I'm like what the heck is Ga Young doing now??? She got what she wanted and now she is leaving Young Gul hanging.

woc is over and the true battle begins

Awesome episode, closing a chapter and opening another.

These two are so beautiful together - I am not referring solely to looks - it's a pleasure to watch them. I love it that it was Jae Ha who planned and conducted the final stage of their war game, hence showing he's gone a very long way since everything began and is now ready to be a true king worth of his brother esteem and heritage.

The video of the late king rehearsing his future acting as wedding... minister? was a pleasant surprise and reinforces my conviction it was him who leaked the news of the engagement on episode 5.

I love it that he's still present not only in the hearts of everyone, but also for us viewer to see again.



Jae Shin and Shi Kyung are stealing my heart too. She has been wonderfully brave, both in facing her fears and confessing to Shi Kyung. And his embarrassment was the sweetest thing ever. It's only right that Jae Shin's the only one to witness his first breakdown. He is so far from the impassible, emotionless person he's been accused to be!



Jae Ha basically declares war to Boong go, which I find awesome too. It doesn't matter that the villain asked for a truce, he's too deranged to ever keep his word. So I believe the best defense is attack.

Clearly Hang Ah's going to be the next main target; I was expecting this. So now I'm again at the edge of my seat.

This drama's killing me.

So repetitive...

4 years have passed since Eun Ho died and even though that was two episodes ago, it really feels like 4 years. It's so repetitive. I feel Baek Moo and Jin Yi keep having the same conversation about burying first love over and over and over again. I wish they would use the time wisely. This drama could have easily been 16 episodes. I also felt they dragged on Eun Ho's presence. I thought it would be over by ep. 5 and the same thing kept happening again and again until ep. 9.

still watching

AH...So Fashion King was actually Young Gul's idea. I don't know what he is up to, but it would be great if he took Ga Young's factory back from that witch of a woman. Poor Anna, when will she realize that Young Gul is in love with Ga Young and that Jae Hyuk is in love with himself?



It is really weird that I don't like the characters in this drama at all, but I'm still watching it. I don't know if Shin Se Kyung's acting is bad or if the character that she is playing is so bad that it comes across as her not being able to act. The male actors are good at portraying some piss poor men. Young Gul needs to get his act together!!!

A bittersweet episode.. :D

It was sweet and sad at the same time. I feel so sorry for Ha Na and Seo Joon...

Pretending not to know each other... that must hurt...

I leave with many regrets....

Now that I'm crying my eyes out, I have a bigger interest in the drama. I had read a spoiler last night about Eun Ho dying of pneumonia, but it was still sad to see everything that happened.



It was also very sad that she waited almost all night for him to come under the rain while he was kneeling begging his mother to let him go to her under the rain too. *wipes tears away*



Personally, I don't think JGS was as good as good at acting as he is now, but I could see a promising start.

Why does this happen?

This episode is pretty good among many previous ones. But, I haven't "got" many things yet and it bugs me..

1.What exactly is 'Team Leader' Han's issue with M2 juniors? Why is she the underhanded bitch to them while at the same time trying to act cute with President Jang?

What does she stand to lose if Woo Hyun leaves or not anyway?..

It can't be about the company- President Jang and M2juniors are part of the company, and she's acting out against them both.

If it's about her career- isn't she already very much in demand?

There doesn't seem to be any strong enough reason to back up how she is acting. Makes no sense.

2.Ji Woo and Seung Yoon - strange. Seung Yoon acting like a guy makes all the hand holding even more wierd..(the other team members do acknowledge it as wierd, so that's some consolation there)

3.A company that manages a music band, and idol + 1(In Young) and another 8 junior singers is run by 3 people- a President, a Team Leader, and another secretary sort of guy. Is that feasible really?

Solid Acting for a Rom/Com

Unexpectedly hilarious! I don't really like the main male character yet (the actor is a very good one though) but I think thats the point. I like the main female character and the secondary characters already. I'm interested in seeing more...

Doesn't Make a Splash Yet

It didn't bore me but it didn't impress me either. I am curious about the main characters and how thier romance will play out. I already like In Na's character.

Cutest episode so far

This episode is soo cute. Shirota has to direct a play with the kids of the children's welfare center that's about Don Quixote. It's very cute how he yells at the kids and the kids obediently listen to him. Seeing Matsuda sleep with those 2 little boys in his arms really made me swoon. Matsuda Shota is definitely the cutest Don Quixote ever ^^ The ending is soo freaking cute

Practice makes perfect!

Finally! This is how I had been hoping more of the past episodes were like. I love practice and dance scenes.

Slow...

I've come to the realization that Hwang Jin Yi is not a bad drama. It's full of romance, pain, and all of that. But I'm having a hard time with its pace. It's a bit slow. There have been no sword fights (which I should have guessed there wouldn't be), and not many dancing and training scenes. I want more of those and I had hoped there would be more.



And so far the only eye candy is JGS, but he looks so young. So, instead of swooning, I just want to pinch his cheeks like the cute little dongsaeng he would have made at that time.

Bout freakin' time!

I am so happy that some1 finally found out that Sa Na is a lying bitch. The fact that it is Tae Yong/Lee Gak makes that an even better ending. She will prolly pull some "oh wooo is me" bs trying to blame her actions on Park Ha. I can't stand manipulative ppl like that. It rly drives me nuts to have to watch them & then noting happens to them. Sa Na is evil in the past & in the present. I don't think that was her dead in the pool in the past either. I think she was trying to help the other guy steal the throne in the past too & the person dead w/ some1 else dressed in her clothes. I am glad the real Tae Yong is alive. I figure he will meet his woman Park Ha soon. I hope so at least.
