    Hello there, past addiction for the past few months! This drama is ridiculously good, and ridiculously bad at the same time. How can that be? As much as I love our main character, I can't even tell you how many times I was hell bent on throwing objects at her via computer screen. At the same time, she's lovable, quirky and extremely clueless, which is how most heroine's are. Did I mention she kicks ass, like literally? There's a love triangle and I honestly can't tell you who I was really rooting for, but all in all, I was content with the ending. There's annoying secondary characters (like all dramas) but they sort of turn out to be lovable. LOVED IT. Must watch, for serious.

    While watching this show I started off not really expecting to like it. The first few episodes were really slow to me, and I found them a little boring. Then somewhere towards the middle it started to pick up and I found myself enjoying watching it for a little while. But then the last few episodes ruined it for me. I think they were unnecessary and the way it ended didn't answer anything [if you read the comments for it on DramaBeans it's exactly how I feel about it]. The way I feel is they could've ended it at episode 16, the ending they gave left me more confused than anything.



    The story itself is a little on the ridiculous side, but

  • Myung Wol and Mi Ho gives off the same feeling, Myung Wol is from the earth but she is lost when it comes to love just how Mi Ho is lost about everything around her.I feel that Myung Wol is just as cute in her acting and voice as Mi Ho.If you liked one try the other 2, i`m sure you`ll like it

    This drama sucked from ep 10 because Han Se Yul escaped to EEUU and she married or something like that and the actors showed that they were so pissed because it was unprofessional
  • elfudes Jan 12, 2013
    til 10-13 it was so cute, funny and lovely but then after that everything get complicated and draggy but still i liked it a lot :'D esp ep 5 will be forever my fave X'D<3
  • brainsnobeauty Jan 8, 2013
    I'm still in Episode 13 and I think this drama is really good! But I'm hoping for a good ending. Someone just has to be happy in the end I don't care if someone dies or something, I WANT THE PEOPLE IN THE DRAMA TO BE HAPPY.

    i re-watched some parts of this drama last night and i think the problem was that the writers seemed like they forgot what happened in the previous episode so the story wasn't consistent and i think the directing was weird. but still i liked it.

    I'm at episode 6 now and the drama already got too draggy. I'm hesitated whether to drop it halfway or not, I mean 18 episodes seriously! I still got waaaaaaay to go >.<

    I hate how the director and the writer didn't make a happy ending for ju in a and choi ryo ..
    And for those wondering about the car accident I think that myung told choi that she didn't want to meet kang woo so he dropped her off ( before the accident ) and he is the one who got the car accident

    I've been watching it for 2 month and i still havent watched it. First 10 eps were interesting. Now im at 14 and i cant watch it. it's just too boring for me. Thats why i cant understand how somebody can give it 10 of 10 points. But i guess it's up to you.

    I would say, the drama did drag. I skip most of the scene where it repeat a lot of same conflicts. It's like girl and boy break up then back together over and over again.
    • elfudes Jul 29, 2012
      like Full House ?

      Have not watch Full House. I was into Japanese drama so I skipped over it. Right now, I am starting to open up to Taiwan and Korean dramas. I just saw this kind of romance too many times and it's kind of obvious in this drama.
  • ayacherry Jun 19, 2012
    Don't have any real will to keep on watching this but the weird ending you all talk about compels me, just for the silliness of it.
  • Kyah. Jun 16, 2012
    I loved this drama veeeery much when this aired, but now that I think about it there were really many ridiculous parts... =_="
    The ending was really the worst. It didnt make any sense for her to survive... It would have been almost better if she had died.

    And that damn wedding scene... I hated that as much as the ending.
    It was so lame. T_T

    I love Leslie Kim/Han Ye Seul and Eric is so cool too & this was a cute and funny drama, but that just isnt enough.
    The few last episodes were just terrible. Its such a pity that it didnt remain as good as it was at first.

    I Rated this as 9/10 when this aired but lowered it to 7/10 for now.

    This drama is so childish =) it was fun to watch till 10 episode and after that so unbelievable full of unnecessary melodrama. When it finished I liked Joo In Ah the most - she was so silly and annoying at first and she grown so nice :P loved that she started to liked Mr. Choi. Plot did not make any sense when it ended.

    When the car was burning at the end, I cried sooo much! But when Han Myung Wol came to see Kang Woo at the airport, I was sooo happy!!!! Man I'm soo glad she was alive! and I'm also glad that Choi Ryu is also!
