It's like a modification story of Boys Before Flowers. First of all because Lee Min Ho plays again as a heir. But in this drama, Min Ho plays a smooth version of Gu Jun Pyo in Kim Tan's profile. But still he plays a possessive role that makes his kiss much arousing especially when Cha Eun Sang is about to be sent to abroad. Obseessive love is the theme of the story.

the production was good, I can't complain .I also say that the performance was incredible, it would be a sin if I complained.
I love the actors, I loved the characters.
Of course, not everything is perfect, I can't lie, but what a drama that doesn't have a single flaw.
So in conclusion, I recommend...
I say it's worth watching, maybe it's bad for some, but for me it was good.
This is just my opinion, you better watch it and have your own opinion.
I don't know what to say, because I think everyone has their own opinion.

one gems of Korean drama regretted not to watch earlier but late is better than never. love the whole concept all character have problem to not come out from their shell and pretend something they don't want or not they are. i like the every those moments where people say "i hate you" which is meaning for them " i love you or i hate to love you " because they want to satisfy their ego than their feelings CHARACTERS
Choi Yeong Do always know that its his fault but don't want to admit it and broke with kim tan his best friend
kim won always love kim tan as little brother but can't swallow the fact that he is his half brother he always avoid him in fear of not fall in with innocent kim tan to satisfy his anger/ego
kim tan always try to knock his brother heart and even ready get anger in return . kim tan behave like innocent child in front of his brother but for other he matured man enough
jung ji hook may be for other he is villain in my point of view he is only father who want to protect his both son from world in his way he don't wants mess life their sons like him. when he says hard word to kim tan mom he is hurting his woman as well as he is hurting itself that expression said
kim tan mom to near of someone whom she love accept the position as mistress , for future of her son locked in mansion
yoon chan yeong a man with clear conscious who know how uphold love and friendship
lee bo na innocent heart and fake attitude
*** its full package of youth and family drama
***in this drama parents done mistakes and complicated things which affect their child and their upbringing and their life . child are broken inside somehow but cant show it so it get out in another way
***its easy to say in modern world parents have their own life children should not interfere but how come they not children are part of their life . its great if parents children have understanding and they give each other space but they are equally part of each other which affect ones decision to others so basically its communication problem
***my view in whole drama i like all the characters except cha eun sang her character/acting is dull for me so i want to give this drama 9/10 minus one for cha eun sang but then i thought for only one character neglect the whole cast/team work is unfair so i reach 10/10 each character have their own stories, dark sides and positive sides .
***many people hated this drama but i don't want to judge them because every individual have their own taste. which is depend on your culture , upbringing and surrounding from where you belong thats how your like dislike count.

As usual, Lee Min Ho is a rich man in this drama. There is really nothing good in this story, other than the good looking actors, that's it. I don't know why this was a hit in our country. And I also hate Cha Eun Sang here. Why does she let 2 men handle and just drag her anywhere? The bullying and the cringey love triangle here is too much for me to handle.
But even though the story is a meh for me, I still find myself asking what will happen on the next episodes. Maybe because some characters are interesting. Like the mothers of the main leads, krystal, and what will happen on the stupid love triangle that the main characters has.
Anyway, this is the first acting and character of Krystal that I like. I'll give it a 4/10. If you like this drama, I'm assuming that you only like the actors/actresses, not the story itself. And if you really do like it, level up your taste hun.

I wasted my time
I mean just why? why was this drama made and for what purpose?I mean the most boring part of the series was the ML and FL and ML’s father. They irittated me so much I almost skipped everything about it.
The most interesting part of the story was… let me remember what was…. nothing.
It has no story and no base they wanted to create a love story but the coward FL just annoyed me. The stupidity of the ML left me dumbfounded. And I would’ve dropped it. If it was not for the character redemption and Jeong do and Rachel and Won. Also the back story of the first love kid.
I think the first couple episodes were great but perhaps because it is an old drama or what but it was annoying.

Just an opinion from a recent 1st time The Heirs watcher…
After years of watching Kdramas, I finally decided to watch The Heirs.Despite a lot of strong opinions for and against, it was a good drama.
When I watch older dramas I need to adjust to how women are treated. How they are spoken to and pulled around like dolls with respect to what they want or don’t. And like in the American TV show: Dallas, how a forced kiss can turn in to something the female just agrees to mid-kiss.
Maybe that actually happens, as fortune favors the bold. Still it’s not easy to accept for someone who believes in equality, respect, and equal rights for all.
My only real criticism for this show (except for the cliches and tropes) is that it should have been about college age young people. While the characters are at times immature and childish- the things they deal with seem much more adult than high schoolers, forget “being 18”. I think that just makes it easier for international viewers to accept some very adult situations.
Again it was an enjoyable watch, if you suspend reality for the 20 hours or so of the series. That said it was enough to keep me watching the entire 20 episodes over 3 days.
Enjoy and decide for yourself. This was just my take after watching. 😊

Good idea, bad execution
Personally, I love Dramas about rich kids like Gossip Girl or Meteor Garden so I felt like I had to watch this one as well.I first started in 2016 but dropped the show after 7 episodes or so. In 2020, when I had already forgotten why I‘d dropped it I decided to give it another chance. But after 2 episodes of pointless dialogue and the same story repeating over and over again I remembered why I didn’t finish it.
I loved the setting but I‘m still wondering how they managed to make the main girl the least interesting and complex character of the whole show. All the characters have so much potential but Chan Eun Sang is just that one poor girl that constantly has to remind everyone how hard her life is instead of actually standing up for herself.
Furthermore she contributes almost nothing to her relationship and doesn‘t really have any goals in life besides earning money. Don‘t get me wrong this obviously isn‘t the actress’s fault, I think Park Shin played the role well, the problem is with how the character was.
Here‘s what I liked about the show:
The setting:
Spoiled rich brats competing over who gets their parents‘ company is actually a very promising concept in my opinion. The problem was they didn‘t really focus on that aspect but neither did they focus on the romance properly. It was just a weird half-assed mix of the two which made watching more than one episode at once painfully exhausting.
The wardrobe:
This was one of the main reasons why I could manage to finish the show. The characters are super stylish and I got a lot of style inspiration from the girls (especially Lee BoNa, my fav character) There were also very few outfit-repeats (except for Eun Sang, but she‘s supposed to be poor soo) and the wardrobe fit each person‘s character really well (except for that 2000$ coat they gave Cha Eun Sang, let‘s not talk about that)
The villains:
Honestly, I think Rachel, BoNa and YeongDo carried this whole show on their backs. Without them, there wouldn’t have been ANYTHING to build the plot around and they were also the only ones who gave the show some sort of character.
The soundtrack was good in my opinion, but „Love is the moment“ was often used in the wrong situations which made the scene look tacky.
Overall, if your standards in Dramas aren‘t very high or you just want to watch all of the K-Drama classics, it might be worth the watch burn other than that I really can‘t understand why this show is considered iconic and one of the classics when there‘s so many Dramas that are so much better.

I love both of the main characters so I decided to watch the drama.The begining is really attracting but later the set change completely... I don't really like to feel out of place in a serie or a drama...
I know there's a lot of people who've been disappointed by this drama but there's a real work that I find amazing but I can't tell it there because it would be considered as a spoiler. But there's this thing that is completely different that other dramas but I think a lot of people missed it :/
I definitely love the songs, I think they are amazing and appropriate and that's all I wanted to say ^^

Marketing di alto livello per il Fashion e il Design di prodotti e di interni
La trama, le ambientazioni splendide tra le spiagge della California, le architetture di ville avveniristiche e di interni contemporanei di alto livello a Seoul, la musica, gli attori tutti bellissimi e bravi (inclusi quelli di supporto o con ruoli marginali, tutti sono centratissimi), tutto concorre a catturarti e incollarti allo schermo per vedere e rivedere ancora questa serie di 20 episodi.I 3 attori principali sono 3 modelli prestati al cinema: Lee Min Ho - Kim Woo Bin - Choi Jin Hyuk, bravi, ma soprattutto belli e dannati. Durante i 20 episodi gli abiti, i capispalla e i maglioni o i completi o qualunque straccio indossino sono esaltati al massimo. Sembra di essere alla Milano Fashion Week Uomo. Una gioia per gli occhi e soprattutto un'iniziativa marketing di tutto riguardo.
Accanto a loro attrici carismatiche, la prima in assoluto è Kim Mi Kyung, la madre muta della protagonista, che recita con lo sguardo e la postura. Poi Park Shin Hye, la giovane "cenerentola" contesa dai 2 "eredi" degli imperi commerciali delle rispettive famiglie, anche lei molto centrata nel suo ruolo.
Infine i padri-imperatori che tengono in pugno i loro figli finalizzati a mantenere ed accrescere i loro imperi economici, con metodi che, per chi ha letto i "Promessi Sposi" di Alessandro Manzoni, ricalcano la figura del Principe-Padre della Monaca di Monza. Quindi, quel pezzo di Corea Capitalista e contemporanea, ricalca le dinamiche dei Potenti dell'Italia del 1600 ...
La sceneggiatura è ben scritta e la serie, anche rivista una seconda volta, è apprezzabilissima.
