Love your article! This is in my top ten list of favorite historical dramas. The slow unfold of the story combined with the feelings of requited but untouchable love really drives home the point of the luxury of choice.

I think this was my top rated scene in any drama. The acting, the dialogue between the three characters was realistic to the point it hurt. The character growth of Yumi allowed a speech that was poignant, cutting and honest without malice towards Woong. Brilliant.

It's like a drug I can't put down.

Same here. At first, I was hitting FF pretty often but then they grew on me.

Let me know where to watch!!!!

In the first season, the FL was good in her part but I thought she lacked really good chemistry with Lee Dong Wook. No slight to her acting ability, but chemistry between actors is so intangible that it's also hard to predict onscreen. The scenes with Lee Dong Wook and Kim Bum? Off the chart and so the brother relationship became my favorite part of the drama.

Girl! You have got to spoil it for me!

I've never seen such awkwardly beautiful people mesh onscreen and make the scenes they are in together riveting. If the writing makes sense for them not to be endgame, I'll be heartbrokenly okay. If it's one of these, "I'm going overseas, see you later" endings, I'll be throwing things at the tv screen.

Yumi's cells has managed to do the impossible. I remember the feeling of disappointment, the thrill of a love's that is new, the magic of that first kiss. I love this show!

I agree with your assessment 100%.

This show is like the perfect cup of coffee. I sit down and for however long the episode lasts, I'm content to watch quirky, realistic character situations unfold. I hope and wish for a season 3, but thank you to cast and crew for giving me a couple of hours every week to savor the shows moments. Well done.

i loved this comment!

I started watching for the same reason.

I agree 100% with the re-watch value. My obsession with this drama started with "One and Only" and that feeling seamlessly blended into watching this one. The very rich back history of the first drama demonstrates the love between 2 people in an impossible situation of loyalty versus love. This one is a modern story with eerily similar family circumstances folded under the labels of loyalty and family honor versus individual happiness. It will definitely go in my top ten dramas watched list.

I agree with Johanna. Although you could watch it, "One and Only" gives such a rich background that it makes this somehow more of everything.

I think the no kiss clause is crazy! An actor / actress literally has to use their body and emotions to connect and portray the character. That being said, I cannot understand how anyone in this profession would be able to stay married. You're literally with a romantic costar for 6 - 9 months, sometimes 12 - 18 hours a day. If your acting partner is a decent person, is it possible not to develop feelings for them?

I love to hate an antagonist and the ML mother is portrayed by such a good actress in a well written part. Not over the top, not meek and venomous, just polite ice all the way. The best.

I thought the same thing.

I know, right?
