Am I the only one that finds it incredible impressive how King 2 Hearts becomes exponentially more awesome with every episode? I mean seriously. This show is amazing. Let me just make a short list of all the things I love about this drama: * Just when you think it has hit the peak of its awesomeness, they bring something else to the table that tops it, always surprising me with different plot twists. * It continuously blows my mind how its a 20 episode show and there has yet to be a slow or only mildly interesting episode. Each episode brings forth new, steadily building climax and isn’t flattening out or losing steam like I’ve seen so many other shows do when they get 3/4 of the way through. * For the most part the characters are very interesting, unique, and layered (and for once the mother-in-law isn’t an evil witch; bonus points just for that). * The show centers around two separate relationships so there is no miserable love squares. Both couples have unique, beautiful yet unpredictable relationships (and they all have great chemistry, additional bonus points). * It has a constantly, and realistically, evolving plot with evolving characters to match. The growth throughout the show in each individual character is very apparent. * It is a pleasant blend of romance, angst, politics, and action with comedy sprinkled here and there. It never dwells too long on one subject which keeps it fresh and interesting. The only reason why I give it 9's for music and rewatch value is because the music is great it just isn't wow. I don't notice it very much which can be good and bad. That means that it flows very nicely with the scenes and the music queues are spot on, but the actual music itself I never bother listening to because it's nothing terribly interesting? I guess it's good just not good enough that I think "wow I want to buy this OST album" As for the rewatch value, I never give any drama a 10 because it's quite impossible, for at least myself, to enjoy a drama the second time around as much as the first time. This is one of those shows that has some great twists and turns that keeps the plot very lively but watching it the second time around knowing what would happen just wouldn't be the same. So 9/10 But overall it's quite excellent! I give this a 10. Highly recommend this one to all drama watchers!
