Yea they don't look like a whole decade apart - the ML looks pretty young himself for 30 y/o also. But the way they act in the drama definitely shows their age difference.

Right, they did mention that in the drama too. FL Is awkwardly adorable haha.

Female lead is 19/20 and male lead is 29/ 30 so 10 years.

I'm more uncomfortable with the FL 'stalking' the ML than her looks. To me, she pulls off the innocent (albeit ditsy for being a top student) and cute girl look (those dimples when she smiles helps) so she passes as a college student in my book. I've never read the novel though so maybe that's why? Definitely looking forward to the ML opening up to her and not being grumpy face haha.

Just wanted to add that regardless of the ending, this drama has great OSTs! Lets just say all 6 are emotional songs...

Oh no, I don't disagree with him dying at the end, just the way all the officers shot at him though...that was an overkill in my opinion.

Agreed, that ending was quite literally an overkill....

Had a lot of potential but the story-line and plot got muddled and some scenes were unnecessary, especially for a 12-ep drama. Spoiler alert, the ML dies, which was expected but it felt good to see him kill Do Jae Hwan at least. Hope to see Nana and JKY team up as leads in a happier drama.

Arthur definitely has a more big boy (innocent yet mischievous) look but I think it is fitting for Ning Que in Season 1. I was actually shocked at how different he looks in everyday clothing- he looks much more mature in the drama. Surprisingly, Dylan comes off as a more 'pretty face' than Arthur to me, so I hope he can pull off the bad ass vibe. These two can definitely pull off the confident yet shameless asshole character though. It would have been ideal for Arthur to stay as Ning Que of course but having a new face (Dylan) makes it a little easier for me to see Ning Que and Sang Sang as lovers (assuming their chemistry is strong) and not as siblings - Season 1 screwed up that portrayal in my opinion. I also think Arthur lacked in expressing Ning Que's more serious expressions, although he did well in the happy and comedic scenes. I hope Dylan has a wider range of expressions haha.

Agreed. I'm actually thinking with a new male lead actor, there's a chance of seeing Sang Sang and Ning Que as lovers instead of siblings. Depends on how they deliver though of course.

I would say 'temporarily' sad ending because there's a Season 2.

Since the beginning, it's evident Ning Que is prideful (yet also shameless at the same time haha) and arrogant (sometimes rightfully so) but there are some scenes where he makes unnecessary comments and gestures. Especially when he gets aggressive when visiting Sang Sang at her parent's home and when he 'casually' insults Ye Hong Yu about her losing her virginity. Ning Que is also quite.....flirty (sometimes unintentionally) compared to most male leads I've seen in dramas. Not that this is a major character flaw but would have loved to see him more devoted to Sang Sang. I haven't read the novel but hope Season 2 can portray Sang Sang and Ning Que's relationship as more romantic because Season 1 set them up like siblings so it was harder to accept them as lovers.

This was the fastest I've "finished" a 60 episode drama (I did fast forward a lot of parts in the later half though). Wasn't expecting much when I started this drama but wow, the first few episodes blew me away. The main leads definitely have a lot of chemistry. For those hoping for a drama to revolve around romance, this isn't the drama for it but the main leads do have a special relationship that doesn't disappoint. The male lead is certainly a pretty face but his acting is acceptable. The female lead may not be the prettiest but portrays her own charm throughout the drama. A lot of supporting characters in this drama and while some stood out, I found it hard to remember a lot of them (hence why I fast forwarded a lot of their parts). I didn't understand some scenes tbh but settled for getting the gist of it and moved on lol. Also, there's surprisingly a lot of scenes that made me crack a smile or laugh. The ending did feel a bit rushed but overall, this drama is definitely worth watching at least once. Heard there's a second season without the male lead actor b/c of schedule conflicts but still looking forward to it.

Honestly loved the first half but the second half just isn't as good. The main couple is still great throughout but the plot could have been better. I didn't like the Grace and NWK pairing - the dude was so evil at the beginning, how did she fall in love with him??? Would love to see these two in another drama though, their chemistry is on point.

Does start off very interesting but plot starts feeling repetitive after episode 20. Sill going to finish watching to the end because of the main leads' chemistry.

Agreed! I actually posted on Itthipat Thanit's MDL profile about a year ago that Thanit looks like a mix of Kim Woo Bin and Yoon Kyun Sang.

I see your point, as well as the previous comments on this. My point though was more so that I think it's more than just SIW feeling guilty - it's that he's trying to protect LSY from some possible danger, and to do so he must push LSY away from him. I don't know if that makes sense but just my theory of course.

I hated Seo In Woo's (SIW) behavior b/c made no sense why he was dead set on ruining Lee Soo Yeon's (LSY) career. But that scene where their past was revealed...made me think that maybe SIW is trying to drive LSY away because there's still danger surrounding him and he doesn't want LSY to get involved again. Especially when SIW teared up after LSY left, it didn't feel like he hated LSY - just playing the bad guy to hide his intentions of actually being the good "brother".

For some reason I'm just not feeling how they fell in love...

I find it so refreshing that the male lead admitted he stayed at his job because of a woman (the female lead). Normally they would make up some excuse but here, he's honest with his feelings - but just a little shy due to his special body parts :)
