They did it in The Great Seducer too

Am I the only one who noticed the reference to Leslie Cheung mambo in Days of Being Wild in the first episode?

I had forgotten Breakfast at Tiffany's and “Stop Downloadkill” campaign ( ads against candid camera in korea)

Episode 3: The exorcism is reference to The Guest with Lee Joon Ki (co-star in Moon Lovers) The ghost he's dealing with is Park Il-do, the evil spirit in The Guest. Some ppl say the astronauts are a reference to
Gravity, but I haven't seen it so I can't tell.
Episode 6: While trying to remember the Joseon kings, Lee Hwon and Lee Hyun names come out, those are fictional characters played by Yeo Jin Goo in Moon Embracing the Sun and The Crowned Clown (Lee/Yi/ 이)
The bad actor is played by Lee Yi Kyung whose character is also said to be a bad actor in Eulachacha Waikiki (plus the fictional character in Waikiki has the same name as the actor 이준기 Lee Joon Ki, co-star in Moon Lovers lol)
The name of the drama The Crowned Queen and its synopsis is alike to The Crowned Clown (even more in Korean, 왕이 된 남자 The Man Who Became King/중전이 된 여자The Woman Who Became Queen), they also used the same fonts and ost.
Chan Sung also says that kings from Joseon era didn't have scars, is it another reference to Moon Lover and the fictional Goryeo king having a scar?
I'm sure I missed plenty others.

The references and cameos are so funny. The Guest, Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo, Moon Embracing the Sun, The Crowned Clown, Eulachacha Waikiki, Breakfast at Tiffany's and others. The reference to fictional kings Lee Hwon and Lee Hyun that were both played by Yeo Jin Goo. XD

They took some elements from the movie for the end which was maybe not the best idea since they were not following the movie anymore.

Oh it that so? I wouldn't be surprised if they changed the end

It's what I wanted too, if she were to get married, it should have been some random guy that had nothing to do with the story. It would have been more realistic. The two 2nd leads were just accessories.

I waited all that time for that scene on the cover/poster...

I got the idea but found the whole thing extremely childish, they didn't convince me. As you say the development was too fast sometimes and we missed information. At least Vivid Romance was just a short comedy.

It's the same writers as for Vivid Romance and I think it's also the same kind of story. Even if I know what they tried to do, I don't think they did a good job.

I get what they tried to do, but I think they just failed trying to tell us that story.

Episode 11. I'm not sure that anything else is worth watching though.

Nowhere

I just watched the whole thing on Dramafever...

I just noticed that Boys Be Ambitious guys were named after Candy Candy (manga/anime) characters. That also explain the name of the fanclub members ;)

I thought the same, I loved the young actors very much, they had charisma and were very good. The change of actors didn't work for some characters, not only they didn't look the same but their personalities seemed to have changed as well. Han Ga In looked too old for that role and she didn't convince me.
