Interesting story with strong female characters, not any unnecessary love triangles, solid performances, some draggy parts towards the end and a fashion-icon dog who stole the spotlights!
He is the only reason I don't want to watch this drama. In all of his drama only thing he do is shout and being…
Give this drama a try: it is one of the most unique, intriguing, out of the box dramas (concerning graphics, cinematography and plot) I've seen in a very long while! I admit I am biased - beautifully matured Hyun Bin was the most important factor for me to start this drama, but here, apart from him being a tiny bit arrogant in the beginning, I find PSH shouting and crying more!
Any romance? Even a tad? Please remember to spoiler warning your response..
Hae Yi and Yoo Jin are engaged, have some issues for some episodes, then get back together and officer Bong Sam has a crush on Hae Ji, but the romance is not the focus of this drama...
This drama is one of the rare cases for me that I enjoyed it even though I didn't like the FL's character very much! She was selfish, whiny, manipulative and unsatisfied, always lying or hiding her thoughts, didn't stand by her friends (esp. Hye Jin) and didn't treat properly her mother, sister or boyfriend or apologized sincerely to anyone... Of course she admitted to some of her faults when she was confronted, but her character growth was the smallest compared to all the other girls and side characters... Overall, it was a very interesting and realistic slice-of-life school drama, with impressive acting from all the young and veteran actors and well-fitted music.
Such a well-written article! Beautiful gifs and excellent analysis! Once again, you nailed it! If those who haven't given this amazing drama a try don't start watching it, after reading your article, they never will! I thoroughly enjoyed it and, most of all, I really loved Baek Jin Sang's character growth and self-reflection process - the best I've seen in a very long while! Kang Ji Hwang was superb! I agree with all the 'flaws to consider' you mentioned, but imo some of them added to the light-hearted feeling and enjoyment of the drama (e.g. theatrical acting, satirical humor). I wish you the best in everything you're planning to do next year and I'm always anticipating your next article! <3
Not the most realistic medical drama I've watched, but surely one of the most fast-paced and entertaining ones! Nino's performance was the best - just brilliant, even though his character was a bit over the top!
Always a pleasure to read your articles - I really like the mixture of humor and seriousness you put in these... Thank you and all the subbers out there! You have my utmost respect and admiration for your volunteer dedication and effort on subbing during your precious free time!
One of the most refined dramas I have watched in a while, dealing with 'difficult' social matters and relationships, such as divorce and its aftermath, family affairs, infidelity, friendships, failures and new beginnings. A realistic, beautifully-written slice of life drama with intelligent conversations, brilliant humor and believable, everyday characters. All cast members did a marvelous job, but especially Bae Doo Na was the star of this drama! She was so natural: no make-up, no fancy clothes, but raw emotions, honest thoughts and once more an awesome performance. In fact, throughout the episodes, I was so invested in her character that I just wanted Hwi Roo to be happy, regardless of whom she would end up with...
Welcome back @catstreet! Always a pleasure to read your articles! It is indeed one of the most intriguing, out of the box -internationally I dare say- dramas I've seen in a very long while! Detailed, stunning cinematography and graphics, captivating, original, fast-paced plot, and a beautifully matured Hyun Bin with a killer smirking face... I was sold since the first episode :D
I've known he's gorgeous in romance, but he's also fantastic in action scenes!
Rewatched it and enjoyed it once more!
I wish there were more episodes...
Misumi and Kube were the best and so was the theme song 'Lemon' !
He's so young and very handsome, but very talented too!
