Unlike many dramas, this drama does not feel like it's dragged for this past 40+ episodes. And the two leads has yet to get married. It does not rely on having the audience get hooked with an unsolved case which calls for the drama to keep moving forward. Here, you watch the next drama and be like "What they up to now?" "Get slapped by a pancake? Okay perfect!" but not to the point that it feels very repetitive like your average American TV series.

Cha Eun Dong's persuasion is so top level. For all we know, she could persuade Choi Jun Hyuk to jump off the Han River Bridge. But it looks like she likes playing with her prey first.

I think the original synopsis says they switched back to their original identities. The plot is like Jang Bo ri is Here but the switch happens earlier if this new synopsis is accurate. Actually, this is more like Everybody Say's Kungdari based on the fact that they pick Jin Ye Sol for the fake daughter and also because of the rural setting. Actually, this is more like Want a Taste because of the piece of trash of a husband. Can't wait to see his sorry face.

I just watched episode 1. I have no idea what the company is. I'm staring at the canister trying to figure out what it is. Hopefully they'll enlighten us in the next episode. I'm betting it's a cosmetics company because the major sponsor is Krill 56. Left Handed Wife's(which btw I have not watched) major sponsor was PromBio and the drama was about a cosmetics company, says the tags. I don't even have any idea what these products are but I bet they sell it on the same shelf.

And I love the trees. F****g trees everywhere. I think the company is on a foot of a mountain. Imagine, you stand in front of the glass wall to take a break and there's a gigantic mountain blocking your view. Awesome.

I know Han So Hee is such a mess of a person but she's like one of the most beautiful actress I've seen on the screen.

With such cinematographic quality they should make a serious sci-fi/horror/thriller drama. Because sometimes when they do, it's usually in the form of rom-com, or something uncreative, or just plain low-budget. I'm watching the first episode. The way it was directed, it makes me hold tight on my seat. I guess what she discovered was pretty shocking but I wish she discovered that her husband was dating a dead person/alien/demonic being instead. Or maybe between 5pm-7pm, her husband is off to fight zombies in the underworld. When she opened the car's trunk, she discovered some flaming whip, and some full-plated armor.

ML is from A Place in the Sun playing good guy turned bad guy turned good guy. I think they picked a good ML. I'm mostly excited with the ML actually. My concern is they could either turn into a cute couple or a mother-son tandem if ML comes out to be wimpy and FL as too strong. My other concern is that they often introduce the FL as a strong female character and becomes stupid in most episodes because they needed her to be the last person to know about secrets. I don't want her to be like a decoration in the show where bad things and good things are just spoon fed to her. I need her to be influential.

I'm seeing lots of trees in the teaser. I hope it's a countryside drama. Most scenes are also filmed outdoors. Sometimes daily dramas can feel very claustrophobic when most scenes are usually inside someone's house or inside a company's office. I mean can't they talk outside for once? Forgive me if I may sound blunt. Although Shim Yi Young is fun to watch but she's someone who you easily grow tired of watching for 120 episodes. But that's just a euphemism of me saying I want a prettier actress. Honestly who doesn't? I'm so excited to watch this though. I'm seeing lots of familiar faces. Some of them from A Place in the sun and It's my life.

What's GOT? Game of Thrones?

Try Xtreme Download Manager. It detects videos and allows you to download them. I don't rely on those download links because those often redirects you to annoying ads.

Boy glasses's parent is Mr glasses. Ok that makes total sense. We could have predicted this at the beginning but this guy is the stoic type. He doesn't seem like someone who's crazy about dating women. I'm thinking he loved the woman but had to abandon them for his ambitions.

This is serving us good melodrama with all that tear jerking moments.

I sense that there are moments where the writer is trying to hint us about Oh Hye Won and the kid's connection. But we know how absurd it is if the kid turns out to be her son. The writer is probably trying to mess with us but if the kid really turns out to be her son, they have to explain to us how and when Eun dong's father picked up the child from the hospital and how it was possible that people did not notice Oh Hye Won's pregnant belly.

This is my favorite drama right now. I'm also watching Fatal Promise but this one's much better. I always like to have a feel with the cast and I can't think of one cast who I don't enjoy watching. Sometimes when I watch drama I feel like I'd be wasting my time because the cast just does not appeal to me. No matter if the story is interesting I always drop it when that case happens. Example for that is Gracious Revenge and the currently airing Brilliant Heritage. That is not the case in this drama.

Also in comparison to Fatal Promise, where the different households in that drama are altogether thrown into a giant pile of mess, in this drama, although the three families keep getting mixed up together in each other's situations, each is going through their own different issues. Like there's no central plot where everything revolves around in which people are like animals feeding from the same trough.

It was suggested that Jiang Yulang raped Murong Jiu while unconscious. He also drugged rape a minor character, Tie Pinggu. And he almost raped Tie Xin Lan. The guy's practically a serial rapist. I just find it annoying.

What happened to Eunhye was a gruesome tragedy which Hwaran orchestrated. It's unfair that Hwaran gets a chance to fix his son or at least be there for him. We're supposed to believe that seeing his son suffering is the ultimate punishment for her. But when she said she wanted to live to be with him, obviously it is not. Her, dying yelling "No. My son is ill, I can't leave him" would have been an appropriate justice. I'm not saying we should desire and celebrate her death. We should value life and look into death as a last resort. But if I have to judge a drama which is trying to portray justice, I can say it's good if it shows justice as something that's indiscriminate and stays true to its mechanism. Like, Lady Justice is a bitch no matter how much you beg. If we can put one character into such excessive cruelty what is the reason for the hesitations for bringing the same thing upon the other person. We're talking about someone lying on the cold pavement asking for help, passes out, and then wakes up to seeing someone trying to bash her head. This person had a lot to look forward for in her life. She had a baby and her father-in-law was going to accept her. If we can easily put such cruelty into such person, why was it so hard for Hwaran to get the same? I guess for the people watching it, it's hard. But it shows a drama which is controlled by external emotions and deprived of some kind of higher powers like destiny, or karma overlooking the events, rather than a drama that brings life on its own and the audience as people reacting to these events.

Like in the Blessing of the Sea. I thought, finally she can start over again. And then suddenly she died instantaneously. That shock of being powerless. Like it was meant to be, and there's nothing I can do about it. I thought that was impressive.

But overall, this drama is good. I'm just surprised it's not the same as the previous MBC daily dramas. Although, I totally saw it coming when they were chasing Yeonsu in the woods. I knew she was going to fall on the cliff. It definitely was because of what happened to Eun Hye. I think Yeonsu and MInhyuk received most of the punishment because they were the ones who were mostly involved in the drama. Hwaran was less involved and she was mostly just a support the entire time.

There's two more episodes for me. I feel that this drama(the story I mean) is much better than the sequel. The backstory of the twins is more elaborate. They are opposite in almost every aspect. That's all thanks to the people who raised them. In the sequel on the other hand, Jiang Xiaoyu's son's family owns a gambling house and Hua Wuque's son lived in the woods and just conveniently happens to find this martial arts book. None of which for me strongly establishes why one is necessarily smart and the other is strong as much as the prequel did. It feels like it just tries hard to carry on the prequel's success. The other characters are obviously based from the prequel's characters. From what I remember, there's the Heaven's Gate lead by that old guy with evil eyebrows, there's the five evils(I think?), and then there's the powerful female martial artist who had a romantic relationship with the doctor. All obviously based from Jiang Biehe, ten villains, and Yihua palace respectively. I remember some aspect of it felt forced. Now it makes sense why. Still is one of my favorite wuxia dramas.

A pair of females in white robes being the final boss is probably my favorite part of this drama. There's something unique about it. It exudes a strong contrast when you see people trying to avoid this pair at all cost.

I do feel like this drama failed to put emphasis on the twins being opposite characters. Jiang Xiaoyu should look a lot more devilish. Hua Wuque should also be a lot more handsomer and more innocent looking(almost like a young boy in a grown man's body). It's not uncommon for seconds leads to be more good looking right?

Well, if you're really new here. My word of advice. You don't go around tell people what to put in their comments. The comment section is just an outlet for people thoughts. And I just happened to have a lot to say about the casting (I'm satisfied with the story, I couldn't help myself nitpick about other things). There is no such obligation where you write comments to help other users. Or any rule, unwritten or whatsoever, where it suggests that you talk more about the story and less about the actors. I understand that the quality of my comment is not of your liking or that in your opinion, people should only talk about the story. But if you imagined that people go to the comment section, and think about how other users will like it before commenting, there's no such thing. I myself look through the comments. But the comments being helpful is just a coincidental side-effect and I understand that that is not really the purpose of the section. I mean you already have the review section for that. I don't tell people "Hey your comment sucks because you only talked about how you hated the actor". I mean if someone really hated the actor because he sucks, they are free to write a two page essay in the comment section about why the actor sucks. In my case, I obviously did not hate the actor. I just thought they could do more effort with the casting. I suggested they should have conducted a nationwide audition and included/considered inexperienced actors for the role. When you said I hated the actor, I was confused why you assumed that in my comment. And I can only make my best deduction based on the situation. Anyone can see how the timing is suspicious.

My subs are late so I don't know what happened. I still wish they revealed it earlier. I wanted to see them get kicked out of the house and watch the 4 of them cracking eggs at the jimjilbang or be squatting on some cardboards at the subway drinking suju. Then they have this little deep talk. Hwaran talking about how she lost Minhyuk's twin sister and remembered she had a star-shaped birthmark on her butt. Then we see Minhyuk and Yeonsu's total shocked face. I guess all my predictions are off.

Sorry it was a bad joke.

I actually watched the sequel a very very long time ago. The first episode shows Jiang Xiayou and Hua Wuque fighting against a superior martial artist. Both of them got defeated/(killed I think). I remember Jiang Xiayou looked very serious. I never expected he's actually the same character as his son.

As for Jiang Xiayou's actor (Chen Zhe Yuan), I actually like him. I also even like Hua WuQue's actor(at least his performance in this drama) who I found out happens to have a new drama airing which I might watch if I have the time.

Oh yeah. I think this kid is you... ok joke.

Normally, I wouldn't nitpick about the casting. But this is such an important drama for me. The sequel to this drama was the first Wuxia drama I've watched which aired in my country. I got excited over the fact that they made a remake for the prequel. You know how people fuss over the casting when there's a remake. Like say the new Mulan movie. I see people comment about how they think Liu Yefei didn't fit the role and that they casted her because she's like the most beautiful asian actress out there. This is just like that for me.

I understand how people get frustrated seeing my comments because it seemed like I only focused on the actors. But I can only comment about whatever comes in my mind. So I ask people please do excuse my rants.

Speaking of casting. I mean not the casting but the portrayal of the Twelve Zodiacs was on point. At first, I thought Su Ying was the Rabbit but when the Rabbit character came out I thought he nailed that part. Same with the other Zodiacs. I think the monkey character was the best portrayal.

Also I see familiar faces. The actress for Ms Tu who played a role in Bloody Romance and the actor for Wei Wuyang who played as an old woman in Return of the Condor Heroes 2007.
