First thing I have to say is that Lee Si Young's acting in this drama is top-notch. After watching her in Playful Kiss and Boys over Flowers, I thought she was destined to play the mean/proud girl. However she was lively, cute, and hilarious to watch in Wild Romance. The other members of the cast, inc the main lead, were really good too and I think together they all held the drama. Wild Romance is funny, intriguing, and cute without to much angst or misunderstanding between the main leads. The ending too is really good. It's not the most exciting or brilliant drama in the world but its definitely worth watching.

I loved this film...from beginning to end.

Story- It wasn't a completely original or necessarily a new plot but the execution was almost flawless, each character was individual and unique. The story spent a long time in the past, and it worked because we got to know them in the past before we saw them in the future. The only downside and its not really a downside, is maybe they could have made it a little longer so we could understand their lives a little better.

Acting- Just great! I don't really know Kang So Ra so I'm not biased but my favorite character was Sunny's leader Ha Chun Hwa she's feisty and loyal.

Music- I loved all the 80's music... surprisingly even though they were American songs they worked really well. They made the scenes funnier at times, and more touching.

I'd watch it again, and if you're considering whether to watch it definitely do. It's not too heavy, but its touching enough to leave an impact, but not the type that makes you feel depressed but the type that makes you feel like seeing all your friends.

As everyone has said there's nothing new about the storyline, but this movie is seriously just too cute. Its lighthearted and funny in a silly way. The main character is very funny and though some people might find her annoying I though she was just quirky and different. Nothing major really happens, just a series of interesting moments. Watch it for fun, one of my fave Japanese movies.

Before you watch this just prepare yourself for one of the worst endings in dramas. I heard that before I started watching it and I thought, how bad can it be? It was bad.

On to the good points though, Quan (main lead) was a more approachable as a character in here then in the Japanese one if you're comparing, it was easier to see what he was thinking and I enjoyed his acting.

Ella overacted throughout the whole thing and I personally never took to her. The other characters were okay not very strong, very 2 dimensional.

I know you shouldn't compare but its inevitable, the Japanese one is definitely better...better actors, better characters, and better plot lines.

Watch it just for ...well the interesting middle episodes between like 2 and 7 before you realize the whole thing isn't really going anywhere.One good thing though is that Ella really looks like a boy, so her being in a boys school is pretty believable here.

Don't even bother! I hardly ever say that but this is the only drama that I actually had to force myself to finish. The storyline is mediocre, almost stupid... whilst sometimes compelling characters can save it...here they don't. It starts off okay and then goes downhill after that. The main leads were not very relatable, and at times makes no sense at all. I don't just want to slate this drama but the only good thing about it is...well I'll get back to you on that ;)

Watch it because even if you might be a little wary of the plot as a whole it does work. You can tell the actors become more comfortable in their roles as the drama moves along and it makes it even better to watch. The writers avoid certain cliches by adding a twist to them. There is some really sharp and different dialogue in here between the two main characters, especially from the main male lead Kim Joo Won he has some real funny lines and then contrastingly some really (unusual) insightful ones too. Overall I would say just give it a go if you like romance and a little but not consuming fantasy.

The best thing about this drama is the chemistry between the main leads. I only gave the story a six because its a little unrealistic that they all believe her to be a boy but it doesn't take too much away from the drama itself. Definitely watch this drama because the characters, the coffee princes, are hilarious and totally desktop wallpaper worthy! The main lead, Choi Han Kyul is arguably the most enjoyable part of this drama but I'm biased :) Coffee Prince is funny, sweet, romantic and often unconventional.

I know people might hate me for this but I think Goong is over-rated. I heard a lot about it before I watched it and it didn't really live up to my expectations. The plot was decent enough but I think my biggest problem was with (and don't kill me) the main female lead. She was annoying, and cried far too many times. The two princes were good though, especially Shin. I wouldn't say don't watch it, I would say watch it but don't expect to be blown away.
