I'm sorry, another Chinese Drama that beautifies a suicide. The first one was "Goodbye My Princess". This would've been a 10 for me if not for that. During COVID-19 a lot of people are dying from this virus some people are committing suicide across the world. Suicide should not be glorified in any way shape or form. I became very emotional with the ending of this drama.

All but that the storyline was intriguing. Li Qin who played Shen Li Ge was really good. Another actress who can play a strong woman. Qin Hao who played Liu Yi Kang / Prince Peng Cheng, my first time watching in a CDrama... will be watching another one of his. Jason Koo who played Liu Yi Xuan / Prince Jing Ling is not my first time seeing this actor but always seen him play mean/evil parts. Watching him play someone that is good was a treat for me. Lu Zhan Xiang who played Kong Cheng was my favorite in this storyline, he is young but his acting abilities are spot on. All the other actors did great also. I didn't expect the leader of all the trauma happening in this CDrama. The storyline kept me focused on the plot. The music score was smooth. The visuals were awesome. The martial arts were okay.

This was a great short story! My first SKDrama watching Sung Hoon, wow, I love his acting and he is a great kisser. I will be searching for more of his SKDramas. Good pairing with chemistry... Sung and Song! lol! Song Ji Eun also did great. Her portrayal of Lee Yoo Mi was neither weak nor meek. The actor, Kim Jae Young, I love him! Still trying to get the rest of the episodes on his SKDrama "Beautiful Love, Wonderful Life"! I laughed and cried in this SKDrama and hollered at my TV!

This was a pretty cute story... Chae Soo Bin was very good just like she was in her last 3 Kdramas. Lee Je Hoon was also awesome. I loved him in "Signal". This is my 2nd Kdrama that LJH was in so now I need to watch more of him. I loved the storyline and hopefully, science (COVID19 is taking us out) in the future will have this type of equipment for the disabled. I loved the ending and didn't love the ending... They just showed a back of a male actor for LJH, for me that was telling me that wasn't LJH so that ending spoiled it for me.

I could not give this a 10 rating as I wanted to, for one I didn't like how the ending ended! The storyline is what I did like but not the ending. Kim Tae Hee was excellent in this drama; I mean outstanding. This is my first time watching her act. I hope to see her in more dramas. At first, I thought she was the same actress that played the mermaid with Lee Min Ho in "The Legend of the Blue Sea". She is not but there is a similarity between the two actresses. Rain is my favorite singer/actor so I wanted to see his better half act. I was impressed.

I think it would be extremely hard for someone to lose a loved one and for them to come back just to say goodbye to those that didn't get that goodbye. I know I wouldn't want to go through the 2nd death of someone you love.

I loved the awareness of how people who are obese usually can't find love or are bullied in school. I'm also glad of the awareness of how their life changes when they make that change of losing weight and because of the weight loss, they go in for plastic surgery. We see more of that these days. Those who do change grieve their old self and then some are just happy with being obese. This was a cute story and I really liked it. Thank you to the cast and the writers to bring this to the front and hope that more people will watch this.

The storyline was okay for me. It bothers me that South Korean Dramas are mostly about triad relationships, it is either two women vying for the same man or two men vying for the same woman. I just wish the writers just write a storyline with all the complicated romantic mess. I really didn't care too much for the main lead actor... I don't know why maybe I saw he was in a Domestic Violence case with his real wife although he wasn't charged. The main lead actress that played the wife was very good I thought. The ending didn't bother me at all since the death was health-related and loved the way the writers did soften the blow of death.

I adore Xu Kai Cheng in the first Well Intended and believe he is a very good actor and did well but not as well as in the First Season. The same goes for Simona Wang. The storyline was different than the first season. Ian Yi did well as all the other actors did. The comedy in this drama I feel wasn't there. I just wasn't moved like I was in the first one. My focus only stayed on the main leads. The visuals and the romantic chemistry between the two main were definitely there. I don't understand why the director wanted to make a Season 2. Everyone tried their best. I guess I was just stuck on the First Season.

There was a word in the last episode used by the young boy who was the son of the two main lead characters. that I almost threw a shoe at my TV. That word is very discriminative and is considered a racial epithet in the United States and other countries. So I looked up the word to see how South Koreans define this word. What got to me, is that back in the '60s that word was defined the same way in our dictionary. As the years moved forward Racism started and now the word has been updated in our dictionary with laws passing to mean it is derogatory and discriminative toward Melanin people. Even though I don't live in South Korea, I'm not going to lie but it hurt. I almost was going to rate it a low number but it wouldn't be fair to the actors and actresses who did their part in this drama.

OMG! This is some crazy insane stuff right here. Um whoever the screenwriter is, has a morbid mind. I have to pray now that I am seeing this. With Lee Joon Gi in this is why I watch~ If you like scary crime scenes this is for you... NOT for me... It is unbelievable!

Lee Joon Gi, a lot of Martial Art action with his turn and high kick moves! All done by him and I LOVE it! What a great actor he is all around! I love Lee Joon Gi in the Historical KDramas but seeing him as an NCI detective was pretty great. I got to see him differently. He is my #1 Top South Korean actor.

The storyline was so full of blood, I wanted to hurl, but it kind of stopped after the 8-9 episode. The killings are usually regarding women and a few men. I'm glad they are bringing awareness to mental illness in people who have homicidal tendencies. The cases may be fictional but it does exist in the real world. Sad but True! The cases shown were horrific and I even felt sympathy for the victims. Because these people exist, we need to be beware and know our surroundings.

The acting of the cast was so believable which made it a great South Korean Drama! All the guest cast, wow, very convincing as criminals! Son Hyun Joo who played Kang Ki Hyung the head of the NCI unit, man oh man, I thought he the real thing. Moon Chae Won, Yoo Sun, Lee Sun Bin, and Go Yoon all play main leads I also thought they were the real great that's how great they did.

I'm going to give this drama series a 9 because of the scientific nature of the screenwriter's story. I love the concept of a Hologram in the storyline. Very Well Done! This storyline kind of reminds me of the holographic image of Michael Jackson performing on stage during the 2014 Billboard Music Awards at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on May 18, 2014, in Las Vegas, Nevada. Two companies fought viciously over the rights to the hologram, although it didn't quite end all the legal madness over the technology capable of reviving dead stars and allowing living ones to be in multiple places at any given moment.

But I'm getting drained in watching these dramas when the screenwriter makes the female character so unbearably self-unsure about herself to become so demeaning and rude in half of the episodes. I just want to put my hand through my screen to grab the female character and just shake her... screaming cut the crap out! uggh... I guess for me that would make the female main lead very believable and so she did a great job of being a demeaning and rude female. That's all I have to say about this drama.

The actress Ha Ji Won who played Gil Ra Im playing a stunt woman was on point and shows strength and power. But the storyline also showed her as this mean and crude person. She was very believable!

Hyun Bin who played Kim Joo Won was convincing even when the actions called for the switch of a female. It was hard for me to watch BUT I laughed! But the best part about this young actor is that he can also sing besides acting. I researched him as I do other artists. My favorite song by Hyun Bin is "That Man". The song that played throughout the Kdrama was his singing except for once or twice it was a female singing it.

The storyline is cute and I laugh so hard for the first 3 episodes I thank the writers and the Secret Garden team which consists of the cast and everyone else. Watching this for the 5th time, I now get it. I'm happy with the ending. I don't know where my mind was when viewing this... but I get it.

It took me like 6 episodes to get into this. What turned me off was the way the script was written for the main female lead from Episodes 1-5. What kept me going was the great acting of Yuan Hao who did very well btw. I did like the actual storyline of the Pirate, that was brilliant. I hope Yuan Hao finds or is offered better projects in mail leads positions other than support roles. I would love to see him more in the main leads. I don't mind twists and turns but what I hate the most is when another female is thrown into the mix. I will skip over that part.

The audio on youtube and cool drama were awful from episodes 16-24. I check both my phone and PC and they were all the same. I hope somebody finds a better copy with English subs. It's like taking a string and attaching it to two cans of sound effects.

Lee Seung Gi is so dang cute himself. He makes me laugh and can make me cry. His personality shines offscreen and onscreen. This short love story tells the truth about what most of us go through in life. Moon Chae Won, I never have seen her before or I have never paid attention to who she is but I will look forward to seeing her in more KDrama. This story and its location felt very normal to me and that is a good thing. It only took 1 hour and 56 minutes (squeezed in the 18 years) to tell someone you love them, HA, that is great!

I love the two main leads... Ha Ji Won and Ji Chang Wook. Won did a lot of Martial Art throughout which is great, I'm a fan. Wook well, his smile is genuine and never looks fake even when he is playing a character. Although I didn't like him playing a weak character, he was very good at it. Great Acting! I love the costumes, the hair do's, the music... I cried a lot... very emotional at times. I'll just put that out there. 51 episodes for a KDrama is a lot but they had a lot to tell. Kim Ji Han. wow, a deep bass voice and looks very tall. Since I hated the ending, I didn't give it a 10 rating. Thank you to all who played and the visuals were great...

Yes, there was a story to be told and once again, the story goes back and forth in continual tragedies and women. These writings about the mothers... mean just mean... Well, at least the writer kept the loyalty between the two main leads except he kept separating them with two interferences (you have to watch to see what I mean). It sounds like I didn't like this KDrama but happy to say that I did like it (not loved it) but liked it. I love watching Lee Min Ho and now I like to see more of Kim Hyun Joong. The rest of the cast did okay, I'll give them their respect. It seems there were two Happy endings... like the story was going to end but didn't and it ended again... just please watch it!

The storyline was okay but it had problems. I don't believe that there was chemistry with the main leads. The part that Park Hae Jin played was perfect for him. I don't think the love interest character Kim Min Jung played was right for her. Park Hae Jin was awesome in this. I loved how he moved around, above, and below this character. I wished there were more martial art scenes but I will deal with what the story had. There was only one song that I liked. I don't know what I just saw but the ending disappeared like Ghost Agent K.
