I didn't see the manga or the Japanese version. I just found it by luck. And, let's be honest, most of us, including me, watched this drama because Dongho and Hoon are acting in it. However, i wasn't disappointing at all. BTW*, i know that some watched it for poster or because they've seen the Manga...so that is why i wrote MOST...not ALL...shall we get to the main point now?

Story (8/10): The story is not new. Kang Yu (played by Dongho) learnt a rare technique in boxing and started to defend himself on the streets. The feeling of heartbeat in his chest has made him feel alive again, so he decided to remain on the streets and fight. The whole drama seems very slow, and i think it is done on purpose, to get you in the thinking mood of the hero. He thinks a lot about everything, and that made me understand him even more. There wasn't much told about the hero's, or any of the characters', background because they wanted u to be wondering about the hero. To try to figure out his psychological mind. To actually think about the drama and figure out why all of this is done like this or that...

Acting (7/10): The cast were all great. They've done their job skillfully. They didn't exaggerate or underestimate their roles. Dongho couldn't be like the Korean Kristen Steward because the American Kristen Steward didn't play a boxer in the korean streets. BTW, I don't think that the American Kristen Steward can actually pull of a scared/ serious face like Dongho.

Music (9/10): As the fighting scenes are really exciting and pulling, u might not be able to listen to the background soundtrack, but the Music is awesomly enjoable and fits greatly in the drama..

Rewatch value (8/10)

Overall, i recommended for thinking people, who are willing to actually think about the drama and don't just watch for entertainment. If u r not willing to think- and am not saying it's a bad thing and am not against it or anything, am just saving your time- please drop this drama

BTW* : By The Way read more

Story : The story isn't new..it is the same bloody revenge we get...there is nothing new in the story and u can easily predict every character's action, but u'll still glue urself to the screen with its action packed and emotional heart tearing scenes...The problem is in the ending. It is a very disappointing one. I was hoping for a great wrap up, as the start was absolutely phenomenal.

Acting/Casting : Actors were very skilled. U don't get the tacky action in this one. u get real bloody one, which really convinced me and kept me holding my breath, which is good, because that means that the actors are playing their roles rightly and their roles are greatly reinforced. Thus, you'll find yourself sympathizing with heroine, who acted her role without any exaggeration.

Music : The soundtrack was great... it matched the scenes perfectly...

Overall, the whole drama takes an average 8 , because the first 2 episodes are great... I still advice u to watch it, but mentally prepare yourself for a bad ending. read more

Although I was disappointed that this was 3 episodes, I've totally enjoyed it. The idea was genuine and attracting. I haven't seen a movie or a drama that revolves around a guy dressing as a girl. It was always the girl disguising as a guy. It was really great and intense and i have loved it. However, bear in mind that this drama is only 3 episodes, so don't count on great series issues. If you are looking for a light comic 3-episode drama, that would be perfect for you...

I don't give full 10 for nothing...this movie was absolutely great...I was looking for comedy, but when I saw that this movie's genre was horror...I kind of hesitated a little bit...but I wasn't let down…

When I knew from the reviews that Kang Yeo Ri, saw ghosts and was actually haunted by a ghost, I was curious how Ma Jo Goo will adapt to that hard situation. This story wasn't only about facing our fears, but also about accepting them. You'll understand when you watch the movie.

The acting of both leads was really skillful and the chemistry was there. There was evolution in feelings. What I mean that, the male lead didn't suddenly fall in love with the girl, but slowly realizing he had feelings for her. The script was wittingly written and reinforced the roles of the actors, which made the movie really amusingly horrific.

The music was hauntingly beautiful. That is all I can say

Overall, the movie was really comic and horror in the same time. I assure that the comic scenes are not silly, but really hilarious and so are the horror scenes are really scary… So if you were a scary cat (just like me), I would recommend skipping the horror scenes, couse the movie is worth watching :) read more

THIS MOVIE IS unbelievable, incredible, absolutely spellbinding…This movie is inexplicably and depressingly beautiful… When I first was searching in the reviews, I couldn't understand what this movie will be about. Now, I know why I couldn't know the story, because it's a secret which can't be told, yet must be only watched to understand the reason.
The symphony of the story and the plot, which are played in a smooth harmony by the skilled actors, are so wittingly twisting, which will keep you puzzled and at the edge of your seat anticipating for more, will really flabbergast you till your jaws drop to the ground at the end. It really has an unpredictable ending. The soundtracks, piano pieces and background sounds are intoxicatingly robe you of all your senses. The cast is beyond skillful…especially male lead actor (Ye Xianglun), who was played by Chou Jay, excelled in his piano and acting performance throughout the movie. Listen…If I were you, I would start watching that movie NOW, instead of wasting more time. This movie will change your views about classic music in a HUGE way. What are you searching for? The only answers you're seeking for are in THAT movie…NOW WATCH IT…GO NOOOOW!!!!! read more

Despite its silly actions, "not-so-horror scenes" and childish problems, this drama has outstanding humor and exquisite point of view. Kyohei and Sunako are so much alike. Although Kyohei hated himself because girls fell in love with him for his looks only and Sunako hated herself because her first love told her she is ugly, both characters wanted people to look at their hearts. This silly drama has demonstrated a HUGE worldwide problem. Even though our wronged opinions are based on people’s appearances, we are striving to find someone to accept who we are and our true nature. The second point of view that this drama shed a light on is, if you want to be loved, try to become the person you love and try to love yourself. I don’t mean you become cocky by the way, but try to see that you are special or else why would you be born?. By the way, this drama isn’t ment to be serious as it is adapted from a manga, thus don’t expect the actors or even the problems to be serious read more

The great story of a poor girl falling in love with a rich spoiled guy…this series has failed to hold my intrest till ep 14…i mean the storyline started to be complicated, twisted and thrilling starting from ep 14…i can’t believe that it was actually filmed this way…there was no chemistry between the characters…their actions and emotions weren’t understood…the love triangle between Jun Pyo, Jan Di and Ji Hoo was silly…the main point of how was the love triangle could be so complicated and painful wasn’t demonstrated in a right way…the acting itself was off and wired…i mean they started to act really good at the end…this has really failed my expectations for Lee Min HO, Kim Hyun Joong and Kim Bum…these three actors have done much better than this…However, as i said before the story became thrilling at the very end…there were some really funny moments…the only characters who acted really good from the begining was Go Jun Pyo’s mum and Ga Eul (Jan Di’s best friend)....i have seen better series with the same main point…i recomend watching Secret Garden as it has shown the real complications and problems when a poor woman falls in love with a rich arogant guy…. read more

Sprinkled with plenty of laughs, tears and little bit of magic, this drama, which can make you cry your eyes out and meanwhile laugh your head off, is one of the most unsurpassed Korean dramas ever and will really flabbergast you. You’ll be so hooked from the very start of the drama, you won’t be able to let go. The characters are all excellently played, the background music is hauntingly stunning and the storyline is absolutely smashing. To tell you the truth, there are no words enough in this world to describe this amazingly beautiful series. In the drama you’ll really experience the true problems, which are exceedingly complicated and realistic that you’ll forget the fairytale twist in it, when a poor girl falls in love with a rich arrogant man. The real beauty of the drama isn’t only in the story, but also in how it is told. The dialogue is so witty and the twists and turns of the story, which keep you puzzled till the very end, aren’t only enjoyable, but also keep you on the edge of your seat, leaning forward in anticipation. You shouldn’t miss watching this drama at all!!!!. read more
