This drama was really good concerning the story line. I know that I missed some parts b/c of probs w/ the links, but I got most of it. The ending was kinda abrupt and left me wanting more, but there are few dramas that satisfy me completely. The acting was ok; it could have been better, but I am not going to bitch about it b/c it got the job done. I actually really liked the music in the drama but wish that the translators would have not over shadowed the actual dialog for the lyrics. I had to go back and pause the show b/c the dialog flashed for like 2 sec then was gone b/c they were posting the song lyrics. There were many scenes that made me laugh. I enjoyed the seriousness of the drama as well. Having ur fate decided on the whim of an emotionally unstable person is very tiring I am sure. I enjoyed the future/past aspect of the story b/c I love stories that progress that way. It is like a "love lasts beyond time" kind of statement to the plot. Neways, I enjoy the drama even though it is not exactly perfect or everything that I wanted it to be. I am sure others will enjoy it also.

This was a cute drama. I loved the story b/c it is about finding ur own path in life. There was little romance but that did not make the drama any less romantic. The ideals presented were very different from most dramas. The girl learning to be independent even when she knows that she needs help. The real life value of "begging does not always answer the problems" did not deminish the value of respect and pride that is being taken into consideration in those moments.



I really enjoyed this drama and will watch it again espcially b/c there were some really funny parts to it. The Grandpa was the bestest. I hope all that watch it enjoy it as much as I did.

Thank God (or w/e deity u pray to) that I got to finish watching this drama. I loved the story of classic rich boy meets poor girl, falls in love, and does everything he can to woo her. I love that the outside influences were not as annoying in this drama like in others I've watched. Their discontent was felt but it didn't have as much effect on the relationship of the leads. I particularly enjoyed the fact that Hyun Gi Joon stuck to his guns in his feelings toward Gong Ah Jung. No wavering for that man. Even though I did not really like him that much at first, he really grew on me after I realized his whole demenor was a front b/c of his position in the company. I loved watching him grow into a more expressive person b/c of Gong Ah Jung's influence on him.



Well I have to say that most ppl will love this drama but others may be bored b/c the story is very similar to other dramas. I look at it like re-reading my favorite book only I find something new that happens that I did not catch b-4. So it makes the story interesting and fresh everytime I read it. But I guess in this case watch it.



I recomend that others watch this drama. It is sweet and funny at times.

I totally loved this movie. It was so dang funny! It was very heartwarming also as the story progressed. I will be watching this one again when I have a chance b/c it made me laugh and cry. It made me want another baby. I will recommend this movie to any1 who asks me. I watched this and enjoyed the cultural differences that I thought made the movie much more interesting. Being a young mother also made this movie interesting to me b/c we don't expect children to grow up and be responsible to such an extent as is necessary in this movie. Every1 enjoy watching this 1.

Beautiful story told by 3 of my fave actors. Thank you again for a beautiful experience. Love the acting & watching the behind the scenes stuff made things even funnier b/c it makes u relize how normal every1 really is. I really enjoyed this drama and I know others that watch will too.



The only thing that I had probs w/ was the whole medical part at the end. I worked in the medical field for 6 yrs. If he had probs w/ his liver he would have had jaundice from lack of liver function. Also, if he and his bro were going to be in surgery then they would have been in a clean room for those 3 days b-4 they had the surgery. Mostly to protect his bro b/c of his current heart condition. Ok so fantacy does not always touch reality. But, they could have at least made it a little more realistic.



Everything else was amazing. I love how they allude to how his illnes is the reason for him being pissy (Mel for bad-tude) all the time.

I liked the story behind this drama but it was filled w/ a lot of unnecessary sexual content. I mean really who cares if ur gay or not, but maybe that is the "American, we accept anything" side of me talking. I would have liked this more if it had been more seriously done. I still liked it but it was really corny and seemed to have a sense of desperation to it. I did like the music and will prolly dl it. Sorry but I really just don't get the cutesy thing that they had going on. There were parts that were funny and r the reason I continued to watch. Watch it if u want to but it really is just ordinary.

Well this drama is forgetable. The only reason 2 finish this drama is 2 watch JJ. At 1st the story was good & mixed w/ all the medical stuff it kept me interested. Then they started 2 explain y Dr Jin was there. They made it 2 complicated. Even ppl that r interested in the whole time travel & infinate universes wouldn't rly understand what went on (ok maybe they would, but it still didn't flow)! Overall it was a big let down. I had such hopes & they were slaughtered by the flick of the screen writters pen! Oh well! On the bright side I got 2 look @ some serial eye-candy (totally talking about JJ)! Only reason 2 watch is JJ! The rest is just blah.

Man did I enjoy watching this drama. It kills me that I have to give it such a low score, but I can totally explain. I loved the story, but it was totally killed by the inept actors & terrible special effects. I loved the whole mafia king pin falling in love w/ a genius tomboy. It is a great idea. I just wish that the actors were more able to make their acting believable. Also I don't think I have seen such bad special effects since my dad quit making me watch 80's B-movies. The use of music in this drama was way over done. There were long periods of silence from the characters filled w/ music that didn't actually coincide w/ the mood that the silence was meant to invoke. The story has such potential and was very interesting. I am going to say that b/c the Thai drama industry is so inexperienced they r still learning how to create more realistic drama's. Even though it had many problems it drew me in. I was hooked in the story. I enjoyed the story that much.

I loved the story b/c it was very different. The blend of comedy and serious elements made this one of my faves. I love Rainie in this b/c it shows her bad girl side. I totally had a thing for Pink Panther when I was a kid too and that just made this drama for me. I loved this purely for the comedy aspect. "Shame of society, ugly mushroom head" best nickname ever.

Story was excellent. I loved the actors/actresses. Music was good, but then again I don't pay attention unless it is bad. I will watch it again b/c it is a story that stood out from others I have watched. This drama turned me on to Mike and Rainie as a couple of my fave actors/actresses. Mike is really good at the bad boy image and Rainie is just too cute for words. I suggest others watch this also for the unique story.

Ok this was RLY good. I enjoyed every minute of it. I think that my biggest grip is that they could have used the supernatural powers a little more. But I can even overlook that.

The acting was amazing. I enjoyed the chemistry b/t the 2 leads. I also enjoyed the fact that they didn't over or under act their parts individually. The supporting roles were played exceptionally well & not a single 1 was unnecessary.

The fact that they were able 2 explain Eun Soo's trip 100 yrs further back into the past, & it actually made sense made this the best time travel drama of the yr 4 me. The others were a little weak in that area.

I rly enjoyed watching this & will re-watch it in the future. I suggest that if ur looking 4 a drama that is exciting & has an ending that will make u happy; then watch this drama. The characters will draw u in & the writers have made sure that u won't be disappointed @ any point throughout the drama.

Now 2 gush about Lee Min Ho, & be a total fangirl. OMG he killed me! I know he is a good actor, but damn! I fell in love w/ him again. I can't wait 4 him 2 do a new drama, b/c I just don't think I can live w/o him right now.....LOL! OK I just had 2 let that out.

Serial! Watch this drama not just for the eye-candy, but b/c it will draw u in & not leave u wanting. ENJOY!

OH how I love u Dae Sung! I thought this was a rly good story & the acting was pretty good. I love the thought of actors talking about what it means to be an actor. I thought they should have finished up some of the story just a bit more but overall it was pretty good. I rly enjoyed the music, but that is what the drama was about right! I will watch this again just b/c I thought the story was amazing. I am glad I took my Unnie's advice & watched it, but I should have known that 1 of the characters I like was going to die. She always watches dramas where some1 dies. Despite all that, it was rly good & I encourage others to try it. I don't think that any1 would be disappointed.

Story was really good. I like how the leads were willing to give up everything for their loved 1's. The end was classic but could have been a little more dramatic. I did not like that some of the acting was dry w/o emotion. I really think that some of these girls need to learn how to kiss b-4 they start acting b/c the kissing scenes r always (no only in this drama) very dry and boring. Unless it is some1 u don't like then u respond and kiss back. Don't just stand there like a piece of wood. It just shows that they don't have any emotion put into the character. I know that they r trying to act out innocence and a lack of experience, but come on! Any girl, even those lacking experience would respond and mac out w/ these hot ass guys. I prolly won't watch this again b/c it does not have a fave place in my heart. But I did like it and believe that others will enjoy it as well.

I watched this only b/c my Unni wanted 2. She is totally in love w/ So Ji Sub & I totally get that b/c he is hot. But OMG it was a strugle 2 get through. It was a good drama w/ a good story, but man that shit got real @ times! I can deal w/ it, but some ppl won't be able 2 handle all the trama that the characters face. There were some things that just pissed me off about the story, like the last episode. & y do the writers always make the "smart" female lead do stupid shit like run out in the middle of a gun fight. I mean come on, u make all this "real" shit happen then all of a sudden they make her do something that no person would ever do. Anyways, the acting totally killed (except some scenes w/ the American troops)! I was totally blown away by the acting. I also loved how the characters r not ashamed 2 show their emotions. I was filled w/ so many emotions that I had 2 take a few days of a break in order 2 finish it! I will most likely never watch this again simply b/c of the strong emotions felt & the mental trama that is felt through the charactes. I suggest that others watch it b/c there is an excellent story there, but be prepared 4 the difficult emotions b/c like I said b-4 this shit is like real! It will totally get 2 u & make u feel like u understand what soilders go through in war-time.

It is very much a live action interpretation of a graphic novel. Sometimes I just don't understand the humor b/c it gets a little stupid.

The story is cute & as a short person I can understand the complex that the characters have. I swear some days I feel like I live in the land of giants. Height can be a big issue when ur looking for the right person, but u should never give up on love. I thought that the writers & characters did a good job conveying these feelings. I have a feeling that a lot that is in the graphic novel (which I have not read) was left out due to the fact that u can only put so much into a movie time frame.

I enjoyed watching this even w/ the extra commentary. I will say that this is prolly not every1's cup of tea, but I thought they did well!
