An awesome but sad truth

yeah i loved this episode but i think it's also the turning point or starting point for everything.

The historical Yoochun near death experience was sad but when the present Yoochun comes it's like "yeah im here." but that also gives me a sudden realization that the present Yoochun is indeed dead well.. like his real body or something.

Otherwise he wouldn't be able to basically posses him right?

And They Call It Dancing.

This episode was really great. It still contained all the humor from the previous episodes, but now the plot thickens and there are more swists and turns to the point that I couldn't turn away from the screen. The best part had to be seeing Yoochun dressed up as a Panda :) I can't wait for next week.

Tragedy of a childhood

This episode continues the story of childhood.

Every historical Korean drama I've watched makes me wonder at the brutality of the social structure they show. The evil characters are so many and 'evil', and the punishments/judgements are inhumane to the point of being absurd. Every next person is being killed, labelled a traitor and tortured to death and so on at somebody's whim or fancy. I can't help but think - If this is all true, it must have been torture to just live in those times.

MORE SOBBING...BUT a happily ever after :)

I am so happy with the ending :) it made all the fustration and sometimes boredom worthwhile. This episode was so touching and heartwarming. BH didnt die but forgets everything about YS and YS only. Heartbroken YS still carries on with the wedding - the video BH had recorded before the accident is shown at the recpetion and boy...get your tissues ready. This was the best scene out of the whole series...I really really loved this scene. It captures everything about love and friendship - my heart was breaking watching BH's dying message T.T. YS runs out and after an encounter with Daddy Conductor she looks for BH and creates new memories with him. She re-introduces herself like how they first met and something twinges in BH's heart (what the mind forgets the heart will still remember). Although he was really reluctant he grows fond of her...again...really soon. I love how they made YS work to win him back after everything BH had done to win her back...I guess that makes them even :) YS's grandad pops in for a visit and...well....happily ever after :)

Promising ^_^

Okay, I just watched the 1st ep and it seems promising so far. I really like Jang Geun Seok's character because it's different from his other characters he's portrayed before. He's shy and awkward at times which makes him cute in my opinion ^_^ I've heard from other comments that they don't really care for Im Yoon Ah but this is my 1st time watching her in a drama so I really don't know. She seems to be doing good so far. Since I'm only judging from the 1st ep, I can't say much, but I really hope this drama turns out to be great as it goes along ^_^.

expected episode!

i really hate it when characters don't speak up for themselves and do not clarify misunderstandings under the pretense of sacrificing for someone else. In my opinion that is just plain stupid and doesn't leave anyone happy. Many more such expected things happen in this episode. The drama really need to pick up its pace...

HILARIOUS

Oh this is getting juicey. Hot time jumping guys living with you and doing slave labor and one of them being a prince? I think I'm in love with this situation. I'm a little disappointed that the lead male is an idiot whose in love with the wrong sister but how else to create those sticky situations us drama watchers love. Bring on the ROMANCE!!!



And lord are those matching track suits adorably hilarious.

I'm in!!!

I knew going in that the King would time jump but I got so in to the historical part that I completely forgot and was slightly disappointed when it occured. But it sure was funny and the present day Park Ha/Bu Yong is so much more fierce which makes me believe that there's no way she'll let her love be taken away a second time by her horribly evil step-sister. I thought she was bad in the past when she burned ger sister's cheek but present day her is so much worse. Weird-messed-up-time-jump-love FIGHTING!!!!

What's next?

First of all that John Mayer magician character is really messed up and is creeping me out. Secondly, I'm a little disappointed that Lee Seung Gi is playing the same old role of the spoiled bad boy but he does it so WELL. I was like "Whaaaaa!? You like her already...? What are you really up to?". The end of this episode made me happy because it's finally looking up and I'm looking forward to what direction their not-so-blooming-I-hate-you-you-jerk-relationship will take.

Intriguing

The beginning was a bit slow and boring for me but there's something that kept me watching and towards the end of this episode the story finally began to pick up. I have high hopes that the writers will build a strong story and I have no doubt that the leads will pull off their characters flawlessly. I look forward to the next episode.

A lot better

So this is a great change from episode 2. I loved this episode, it had many funny moments and you can see how they start getting closer. I loved the part where he got jealous over her being all girly with comrade Eun Si Kyung, and of course, the best part of the episode was the SNSD part XD

I hope this keeps getting better, can't wait for episode 4

okay

Much better episode than the last one, but it still ended with a cliche.

Not a bad start....

Hmmm...Love at first sight. I don't believe in it. However, I do believe in another-4-letter-word-which-also-begins-with "l" at first sight. But I guess I'll have to suspend my disbelief. He pissed me off because he didn't speak up and his friend was also getting on my nerves because of wanting help from someone else...Do it yourself!! But I really liked it.

sacrifice over everything

I keep liking this more and more, and no it doesn't have anything to do with Sukkie because he's character is bland. It has more to do with the feeling of the episode, and the directing is awesome. Besides the story is really coming up great. If you want a romcom with a lot of funny situations and fights, then this definitely is not your drama. This is just a story of first love. I'm really looking forward to the 2012 story but I guess we'll have to wait like 8 chapters for that
