Loved it. Fun and relaxing watch. Everyone, but mostly for me Park Seo Joon is so hardworking, diligent, and charming, and I feel I've gotten to know him--it's now made watching What's Wrong with Secretary Kim that much more entertaining to watch.

Strange and interesting drama which leaves me no doubt there's a sequel to come. The one thing that bothered me really strongly was the chainsmoking throughout by the talented, main actress. I found it almost hard to watch her scenes because I was made to feel so conscious about her future health. I can suppress the feeling that it's just so wrong to risk influencing viewers--especially younger ones, like the kind featured in this series--encouraging them to take up a deadly, disgusting-smelly smoking habit.

This show is loaded with a full host of wacky characters and weirdness...but so far it's fun and entertaining. I especially enjoy all series that feature cooking and food porn.

I loved this series. It was sweet, kind, gentle, original, funny, and wise. There were no mean, hateful characters--just quirky ones all trying to make it through ordinary lives. The poems selected captured emotions beautifully, whether it be time, regret, loss, beauty, appreciation, or love. A welcome change of pace!

I turn this on via Netflix when I don't feel like tackling a storyline. It's just there...relaxing and entertaining because I can just pretty much zone out and watch one epi after the other after the other. IU is so cute and funny to watch--she's so hardworking. It's fun to see her chocolate obsession, her efforts endlessly washing dishes, how she zones out and stares. All the pets, and how the couple doesn't worry much about how they are going to handle things; they just seem to take whatever all in stride. It's interesting to see the contrast between relaxed, carefree, gregarious Hyori and IU who's often striving and concerned about her career, holds back her emotions, is shy and reserved. I really loved how IU bonded with Dam-i, a guest with a disability. They were both the same age, and I was touched at how IU was so sweet and caring.

I was hoping the threesome would all go into business together again--start a new company and hire all of their familiar employees. I was disappointed that Kai Ting turned the offer to rejoin down. Qing Qing could have easily rejoined as well.

I thought she did a fine job in While You Were Sleeping. I felt she played it as a very natural, unselfconscious character.

Yes, I know well about physical therapy since I've been in it--but you know how they love to throw in those bloody operation scenes. They did put one scene in but I closed my eyes--LOL

I was afraid to watch thinking it would have gory operation scenes--but it turned out to be funny and more playful. Glad I gave it a chance.

Stressing from melodrama aigoo!

This started out to be an odd yet enjoyable drama but, unfortunately, the plot and up-in-the-air ending fizzled just like the romance.

I'm up to epi 9 and can't believe I'm still watching. The going-nowhere back-and-forth storyline is starting to feel like a boring, dragged-out train wreck

Either she forgives him and moves on or she stays endlessly unforgiving and pissed...but, geez, make up your damn mind!!

by epi 9, she was nice to him for about 10 minutes and now she's in a huff all over again. It's ridiculous!!

I'm already loving and appreciate the vibe of this adult drama. It reminds me of the Second to Last Love series.

That's exactly what I was thinking. No kisses was written in the contract. Ifelt so obvious to me. :-(

Well, I either missed it or it was so insignificant, it didn't matter much. I expected a lot more after holding out for 45 epis!! :-(

The last episode ruined the enjoyment for me. I get that Cheng Hao is reticent, but to have him show up in Belgium and for her only to run to him while he stood by and just smiled? I'm sorry, but not to reward us, after 45 episodes no less, with even one Big Kiss and the words, "I love you" never spoken even once during the drama was such a letdown. Frankly, I kept feeling like these two leads had written in their contracts somewhere that they wouldn't kiss even once throughout the drama...that's really kind of hellish for the romantic viewer! I'll have to look them up and see if they are both married in real life, and maybe their spouses refuse to allow them to have an onscreen kiss--that's just the impression I was getting while watching. For all their drunk scenes--not one kiss? The final kiss they showed in his flashbacks right before the final scene never even took place. They cut the show off in that episode when he looked down at her lying drunk in bed and he was tempted to kiss her.

The rest was okay--even for self-adoring/self-loathing Yu Gao to finally fall for Zhang Ming Yang was far-fetched but he made his argument convincing. Whatever happened to "Old Man?" Where did Cheng Hao and Luo Yue end up--going back to Beijing or staying in Belgium...or at the pace heir relationship was not advancing, maybe they just kept it a long-distance love forever? I'm a brat, I guess. I don't like endings that leave me up-in-the-air like that. I want to know!

This is a dark, somber, quiet melo that was stark and desolate in feel yet it somehow always managed to include an underlying spiritual connection and warmth to fight off the demons of so many of the characters--especially our leads. A fragile strand tying each person related to one another was tenable in what otherwise seemed like a depressing, hopeless future, just as that barren landscape was built on tragedy and hope for these poor soul survivors.

Can anyone tell me where to watch with English subs? Thanks.

Ha--your future career, namopankik--author of a crime detective novel!! I'm glad you're feeling the confusion a little, too...it shows me I wasn't imagining things but I need you to figure it out for my sake. LOL

Thank you for clearing this up for me. I didn't think he traveled back yet but missed that Ji Soo's mother was also a doctor, especially since they showed the current day scene of and angry/upset Ji Soo walking away from him a few times.
