Can anyone who saw taiwanese and the korean version tell me which version is good to watch first ? Iam planing…
My recommendation would be to see the Korean first. I wish I had. After watching the Taiwanese classic first, I had difficulty in fully enjoying the Korean recasting even though it is a very fine show.
(I don’t yet have the words to fully describe my impressions of the original since it’s a very recent watch but I can honestly write that many scenes have become permanently tattooed in my imagination.)
man, not even a fan but the hate he receive is ridiculous. firstly, i never see the controversial statement as…
Agree. Total bullshit to throw at a famous guy, that’s all. I’m sure he’s used to it by now. Don’t worry, he’ll get even more BS thrown at him at other points in his career. It’s the “AURAAAA of fame!”
Enjoyed it very much. Good looking principals and fine acting by both. What is hard to understand is why this drama shamelessly lifted so many set pieces (scenes) from “What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim” and “Encounter!” Well, I guess imitation is the best form of flattery.
The writer and director have no concept of geometry... or love, the characters are autistic/mentally unsound,…
Your reviews are a disgrace and, evidently, just intent on slamming the show for ulterior reasons (are you in someone’s pocket?) and shamelessly disrespecting people with disabilities. That this site allows your level of bullshit to be read is surprising and disappointing. Please, go away!
Hard to understand the absurd rating for this wonderful, intelligent drama. A must-watch unless, of course, you suffer from younger-man/older-woman relationship phobia. (A lot of that going around, it seems, even though we are almost a fourth through THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY.)
Super-stunned by this drama as I never imagined writing of this depth, seriousness and sensitivity was ever to be found outside theater. Stumbled upon it and binged the 16.
Being of an (ahem, cough) advanced age (hack, wheeze) I’m very thankful that I have Netflix, Viki, Hulu, etc. available with so many choices to pick from. Having been strapped to the 4 networks in the US for so long, I find that I no longer even turn to one of them, except for an occasional sports event. Even those can now be found on line.
My introduction to kdramas was on Netflix, so I have a soft spot for it. No, I don’t like everything offered but do enjoy the variety, quality and convenience of the platform. Looking forward to “Celebrity” even though MDL lists it today as “ending” this week (!). (Maybe the editors were just too busy processing more uses for the word “intertwine.”
Phenomenal series! I’d recommend giving it a go as the 8.1 rating is, really, quite lower than deserved. The ladies reign supreme in this one. The only boner made by the writers is the insufficient development of the FL’s mother relationship: it came, it went, never to be addressed again. Well, it is an oft used trope in kramas and maybe it was only meant to act as filler material.

Unable to go on for now except…wow…really!
Ms. Park: Bravo!

Let the twine take its time, then.
