Oh man, goodness, words can't describe how I'm feeling right now after just completing this drama (I marathoned it) - It definitely needs and deserves a season 2! If they can pull it off as good as they did season 1 (and still have the same main cast of Lee Je Hoon, Kim Hye Soo and Jo Jin Woong + a couple new additions maybe) It would be Amazing! I'd really love to see a season 2!!! I hope the rumors I've heard of a possible season 2 are definite *fingers crossed* *and praying for the same main cast* <cause it wouldn't be the same without them!

This drama had me on the edge of my seat throughout the entire drama - I literally could not end a night on the end of an episode - I had to watch at least half way into one before I could get some sleep lol - Whenever I tried to finish an episode there would be something there that I wouldn't be able to sleep over lol
Lee Je Hoon and Jo Jin Woong were absolutely brilliant in this and totally ran the show for me! I was so invested in the two <3 Kim Hye Soo also did a great job in her role - it wouldn't have been the same without any of these three *I feel like I'm repeating myself over and over lol*

yes, it's available on dramanice.eu

Finished it - Thank goodness, Like I said before, I really enjoyed the first 7 episodes but as soon as they left Harvard (it shouldn't even technically be called "love story in harvard' when most of the drama was filmed outside of Harvard :/) by episode 8 I rarely smiled (unless it was something Hyun Woo did or said) I was depressed and angry most of the time - and I had several times where I got super emotional and teared up or cried b/c of Hyun Woo - I really felt his pain. But any prior liking I had for KTH even a little - vanished by episode 8 - I could not like her for the rest of the drama, she annoyed me, made me really angry and so much more -_- It has a "happy" ending but for me, nothing could make up for the depressing plot line - it's almost like they threw 2 different dramas together with the same cast... :/ Only thing I liked or enjoyed out of it was Hyun Woo (Kim Rae Won) and the OST - I had this on my harddrive and I think I'll delete it but I might keep the first 7 episodes as I did like those... idk, I'll decide what I'll do with it later... :/ Oh and I'll say it again - Kim Tae Hee's acting SUCKED in this drama - it's like they just put her here for her face and that's it - she was terrible at acting.

I downloaded it from doramax264 - it has eng subs on it already - I couldn't find it available to stream online..

Hyun Woo (KRW) first meets and falls in love with Soo In (KTH) when he is studying law at Harvard, well as their love is progressing she who is a medical student at Harvard decides to go on an OEP volunteer group to other countries - she takes Hyun Woo out for a day and plays with him on the beach as he tells her he wants to marry her and she tells him she wants to be "loved" by him - then when Hyun Woo wakes up in the morning she has disappeared with a note that said she wasn't planning on ever getting married never even thought of it before... ectra but at the same time she left a pair of "couple" rings on the note *like ok, wait for me or something* - and then 3yrs go by with NO contact from her - Hyun Woo is back in Korea working as a lawyer heartbroken as can be (you can literally see the pain on his face, through his eyes) he meets her again and yet she never apologizes to him at all - instead she acts angry (she has NO right to act that way when SHE was the one who abandoned him), and if that wasn't enough when he makes his way close to her again and once again opens his heart to her - she tries to leave again - but can't b/c of an illness (oh brother) and Hyun Woo asks her to marry him once again - this time she agreed but when she finds out what her diagnosis is she once again abandons him >_< (where this picture is from) she took of her couple ring and the necklace of protection he gave her and walks away (while quoting to herself in her head "after I'm better I'll come back and accept your proposal then" < WHAT!!!! Girl, he wanted you to stay by his side - he wanted you NOW not LATER - NOW!!! He said he would always love her - love till death, till after death and eternally - and yet this bimbo doesn't even know the basics of what love is and decides to leave him even after he begged to stay so ardently b/c she "didn't want to be a burden to him" SERIOUSLY???!!!! Gosh girl - you just tore his heart to shreds AGAIN!!!! and you say you don't want to be a "burden" to him???? REALLY where is the sense in this stupid idiot girl!!! how the heck did she even get into Harvard?!!!!!!! >_<

GRRRRRRRRRR >_< If Kim Rae Won wasn't in this drama I would 'Rage Drop' this drama!!!!!!!!! >_< Kim Tae Hee (Soo In) is the most annoying character ever!!!!!!! She's driving me insane!!!!!!! I hate her guts!!!! How can a woman constantly do this (picture) to a man she supposedly "loves" (I think she needs to go back to Elementary schoool and learn the definition of LOVE!) - Hyun Woo (Kim Rae Won) has been constantly torn apart by her >_< and I hate her for it!!!!!! *More in spoiler above on details of what she has done thus far* I get raging angry at her and raging sad and cry for him *Can I just jump into the screen and rescue him?!!! I can promise I'll never hurt the man I love!* [Love Story In Harvard] - only the first 7 episodes were good - after the second half of episode 7 (mainly episode 8 and up) the story has down-spiraled so fast it's not even funny >_< Only thing good about it is Kim Rae Won's character Hyun Woo and the OST - I would not recommend anyone to watch this - Ever. *and it's Kim Tae Hee's worst acting I've ever seen of hers*

I downloaded this drama from Kissasian but man wherever they got the subs from or whoever subbed it was really rude. They've called Hyun Woo a *Ba*******d* 2 times already -_- Why are they calling him that? He did nothing wrong to deserve being called that. -_- Annoying subbers comments. And beside that they also said "singing badly" once when he was singing in the car - uhm he didn't sound that bad to me. smh. and then once again they said "singing an even more gayer song ..." <seriously what is their problem? Do they have some vendetta against Kim Rae Won or Hyun Woo??? -_-

~Ranting a bit~ The first 7 episodes were really good - but I'm now on episode 12 and I've been struggling with this since episode 8 :( I don't know why they had to mess up a good story.... And Soo In is a bitch (a cruel bitch), SHE was and is the one who should be apologizing and asking for forgiveness - NOT HIM -_- HE did NOTHING wrong - he was an innocent victim - she shattered his heart into pieces and yet still thinks she did nothing wrong... She's shameless. (I want him to be happy, so I'm still going to ship them together but he deserves a TRILLION times better than her). The writer seems to try and make it look like he needs to do all the work when that is just so not true! To love a man and then leave him so cruelly and all of a sudden like that (like our lead guy said "Did you even think of what that did to me? How much of a shock that was?") His pain was so evident - you could literally see the scars, hurt, pain and anguish through his eyes. :'( Kim Rae Won is doing a phenomenal job in this drama (as he does in all his dramas) But Kim Tae Hee on the other hand (not to mention the character she is playing) is really really lacking in terms of acting skills - she looks so stone faced and emotionless in almost all of her scenes. ~End of Rant~ Oh and, the second male lead really needs to wake up and get a grip. The only character that seems to know what true love is is Hyun Woo (played by Kim Rae Won).

Doramax264 has uploaded this drama for download!!! - If anyone wants to watch this then get the episodes here: http://doramax264.com/30580/famous-chil-princesses-2006-k-drama/

I enjoyed watching this drama, I do wish there was a little more of our main couple in the last episode - especially at the end - but it was still satisfying ;) I like how this drama progressed at a fast rate and moved on to one thing after another quickly, even the relationship hurdles were dealt with quickly - so we didn't have to endure pain for so long lol - and our couple was steadfast to their love from beginning to end ^_^ The other side romance was cute too - I knew who she was really in love with from the beginning but I wasn't sure if she'd end up with him - even if their love was tragic (it was expected) - luckily our main lead couples romance was pretty cute all the way through - with a few hurdles along the way b/c of Mi Sook (who I accepted in the end) and Hee Jung's Dad (gosh I hated that man >_<). And I liked that they showed us what happened with Mi Sook in the end too - so we didn't have to worry about her lol - All in all good ending for all couples - even if one was sad it was still happy <3 The music was beautiful - great for an old drama ;)

Anyone that watches this remember this was made in 2001 - it's an OLD drama now lol - so the fight scenes and sound effects are laughable :P I liked the clothing style from back then so it was nice to see - like taking a trip back in time to my tween years lol

Go Se Won <3

Giving it a 1.5 -
An extra .5 ONLY b/c of Kim Rae Won. This drama has made it to one of my worst drama watches list. This drama was basically about Coveting what isn't yours - and trying to make it look like Coveting is a good thing. -_- I will not approve of that kind of a "relationship" Ever. She had NO right to covet her sisters husband -_- and He had no right to fall for her either - especially since he was married and "supposedly" loved her sister! >_< The whole theme was immoral. (I'm SOOOOO glad I skip watched this drama!) Kim Rae Won's presence was the ONLY good thing about his horrid drama. The two leads (characters) should be stoned. I would NEVER forgive my sister if she did this. I would haunt her from my grave!
*Anyways, I got tons of pictures of KRW - so at least I accomplished something worthwhile watching this*. I do NOT recommend anyone to watch this.

Ep. 06 - when wife was talking to husband on phone. (She looked like a woman who was worried her husband was cheating on her & lying to her - but not with just any woman but with her younger sister!!!!)

This poor woman just ended a phone call from her husband - where he said he can't come home tonight "b/c he caught the suspects but now has to write a report on it" - She could tell he was lying to her through the phone!!! She's worried b/c he is with her younger sister who likes her husband!!!! That is so wrong on so many levels!!! A sister should NEVER "love" her SISTERS HUSBAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >_< That is completely IMMORAL and SHAMEFUL - ENOUGH TO BE STONED FOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >_< If it were the olden days I'd stone my sister myself for even having such immoral thoughts about MY husband! It is NOT ok, it is NOT right! It is WRONG - VERY WRONG - plain and simple!!!! >_< It's one thing to get this look on your face when you think your husband is cheating on you with another woman - but it's another thing when you are thinking about him cheating on you with your sister!!!!!! Totally disgraceful, disgusting and horribly disturbing!

This is what the whole synopsis is about! (reason why I'm skip watching it - as I am only here for KRW) - and the synopsis even says this woman will die and then her sister thinks about going to her Brother in law - How much more wrong can you get?!!! You're sister is now so called "out of the picture" so you then think it's fine to take her husband????!!!! NO SIR!!!! If I was this woman in the picture - I'd come back and haunt my sister for ages to make her life miserable!!!!!!!!! >_<

Only started watching this for Kim Rae Won and I already started skipping in the very first episode... This is similar to 'Triple' another drama that I didn't like at all and only skip-watched for a certain actor. That's how I'm going to continue with this one as well b/c I just am not interested in the over-all story or premise - I only want to see KRW ;) - Of course if it was a good drama I'd watch it all but I honestly don't care for what is in this drama outside of KRW's character so... lol - Will end up giving it a very low rating - but at least I am able to see KRW's handsome face ^_^

I started it for Kim Rae Won <3 One of my first kdrama loves ;) And I must say I got hooked - I couldn't stop watching lol - I loved any scene with KRW and NSM (Sungchan and Jinsoo) <3 OTP ^_^ At first I was a tad thrown off b/c of the weird historical element in the first 5 minutes or so (but that is for the so called history or ancestors that the main characters genes follow). and I wasn't sure about NSM early on either b/c she looked like a crazy ahjumma - with her hairstyle, mannerisms, and clothing lol - but thankfully she straightens out her hair and tones down a bit with her character development <3 So she became the NSM I know ^^ I loved the pairing of KRW and NSM together <3 Shipped them all the way <3 I also loved how KRW's character Sungchan wasn't always in the kitchen (like the cover photo makes it seem like) He's mostly on the road learning new things, being inspired by different people and their stories with his tag-a-long bud Jinsoo who was always looking for a good food based article to write :) Sungchan became the misunderstood brother while his older brother constantly misjudged him and distanced himself from him - while harboring a grudge where he felt like his place and father were stolen... I enjoyed watching all characters (obviously my favorites were Sungchan and Jinsoo) - I was only annoyed a bit with Joo Hee b/c she was so flip-floppy between the brothers - and her desperation and clingy-ness (while being "classy") was off-putting for me - but luckily it didn't interfere with the characters much - she just made me annoyed whenever she'd be around Sungchan and such. lol - Otherwise great drama, I really enjoyed it ^_^ If you liked Fermentation Family then you will probably enjoy this drama as-well ;) 8.5 (possibly a 9) from me :D - and the OST was amazing - I loved it :D (I'll post it in a link above) ^^

Happy Birthday :D

I for one do not understand the end, it was ridiculous to me.
First of all - I only really wanted one thing - to see Miju and Minwoo - with Wooju as a family - married and living happily together - I never got to see that - and that made me really really disappointed. They showed her save him from the rooftop and talk about Wooju, then he goes to jail and come out with a ticket - but that's it? Nothing else?!! Seriously - did they get back together? Did they get married? Did Kangmo accept them? I literally lived for this couple during the drama and they became my main focus - but to leave me with such disappointment... *huge sigh*
I'm glad Kangmo and Jeongyeon got back together - but honestly they could have got back together a LONG time ago already (like sometime in episodes 30+ at least). *I honestly never saw a reason for them to separate to begin with. Same with Miju and Minwoo (who cares who their fathers are/were!)
And did Seongmo really have to die?! Ugh, seriously - I was much more accepting of the the guys death in EoE than I am of this one. -_-
And what the heck was with Pilyeon being outside of jail and Kangmo facing him at gunpoint in a tall building - and that news thing? Totally ridiculous!

Sorry but as you can tell this drama really frustrated me in the end. I endured all this for what? Nothing? They could have ended this drama by episode 50 if they had cut out all the filler scenes!
