My, what a killing spree in ep 16 XD
I loved this drama. It's like nothing else, which makes it worthwhile just for the theme. I love Kang Ji Hwan. He is a brilliant actor. Though some parts are slightly (but really just a little) slow- the overall experience was well worth it! Especially the beginning was very humorous and enjoyable. Later the independence fight is more in the foreground but that is okay, since it is what the drama is all about.

I just loved the chemistry friendshipwise between Qi Yi and Dean.

I totally agree with you as far as The Moon that embraces the sun is concerned. The young cast was so brilliant!
The age difference in MGG between Lee Seung Gi and Shin Min Ah is neglectable. Three years is nothing really.
And Lee Min Ho tends to get paired up with older women. He works well with them, is my opinion. (We'll see in Heirs whether he also works well without the age difference!) I Loved him in Faith. Kim Hee Sun is 10 years his senior and they still had great chemistry.
If you look at Jiro Wang (31) and Su Li Wen (25) (currently in the tversion of You're beautiful) I blame the age difference for the lack of chemistry. Though I love Jiro Wang ;)

Good to know. I've not made it past ep1, yet! But sometime I will continue

I really really want to like this. It's got some great actors in it. So much potential, so much bromance. but why- why?? do they always have to ruin the female lead??? She is so immature and boring. I really don't see how such a girl could ever be involved a relationship. Let alone a triangle. A stronger character for the female lead could have made this into a really good drama.

Love this article! Fangirls need more bromance!
Geol-oh & Yeo-rim *squeel* Loved these two

Things do pick up, and some scenes were nicely done in ep 7 so that I really look forward to ep8, but still I find there is no chemistry between Jiro Wang and Su Li Wen. I am sorry, I really ship Jiro here, but these two aren't well matched.

First episode in which Jeremy was not totally creepy- Actually Yo Evan acted quite naturally in ep 7 and now I DO look forward to his confession. I was a bit disappointed by his character so far. He was not well done in the t version. But now things may turn around for him. The bus scene is one of my favourites by far in the whole drama! Although this is the first time I root for the 1st male lead instead of Jeremy. GO Jiro Wang!

thanks for accepting my friend req :)

Agreed. I don't even know how they are going to fill 20 eps oO
I am looking forwards to ep5 for now, will have to see how this develops.

Am i watching the right drama here? Mine had 28 eps each 45 minutes? oO

Joo Won did a good job in the moon that embraces the sun. I've not seen any of Jong Il Woo's works therefore I can't compare.
Not a huge fan of Lee Seung Gi here, Cha Seung Won might have complemented Ha Jo Won much better in King2Hearts. Though that was still a great drama, since Lee Seung Gi actually managed to get across the princes inexperience and childish manner quite well.
I bet everybody is glad that Hyun Bin got the role of Joo Won in SG. He had great chemistry with Ha Ji Won and the drama awesome.
I never liked the f4 series much- so I don't mind who played the lead role. I just think its one of LMH weakest works.
As far as Faith is concerned: Lee Min Ho will never become my favourite actor. Frankly because I think he doesn't have that much skill. But I liked him in Faith. He was well matched with Kim Hee Sun. But maybe one of the others would have made this a better drama.

About every second time I am on MDL I come to your profile to watch the 2PM gif. I have it myself and I could easily just go to check out the whole vid on youtube... but it just cracks me up to watch the silent gif XD

I just dropped it. Eun Hye is one of the few actresses I really don't like (apologies to all fans) and this story is just too much like BBF (F4). And I already sat through that slow torture.

I enjoy Jiro Wang as male lead, but I just can feel he has no connection to the female lead. They seem so awkward together... She really wasn't well chosen-

lol i think the two of us have to go a long way to find people who agree with us. Most people prefer the colourful korean version, with poor LHK who had about as much character depths as a marshmallow (that is not to say, I didn't like him. He's just not my favourite) I thought HY was way more original and had more personality which made him much more likeable^^

Thanks for sending a friend req :)

I think so too. I really enjoyed Hikaru Yaotome as Jeremy. In a way I liked him even better than LHK.

Hm I agree. This is just too similar to the korean version. Usually I am looking forward to the t-remake, since they tend to get their own surprising twist to a remake, but this one...
I was so looking forward to see Jiro Wang in this. But he just can't pull off the character that well. But I still like him best of all three Hwang Tae Kyungs ;) He just has this ability to make the character unique even though it's not the way I expected Huang Tai Qing to be.

Agreed, I find the whole story unconvincing and boring. None of the characters seems believable and sometimes the plot and dialogue are just too nonsensical. Lee Seol had about as much backbone as marshmallow and I really could not find any reason to like her, she was just plain annoying all the way. The only reason why I am completing this is because of Song Seung Hun.
