Rewatch Value 10.0
This was one the first dramas I watched and is in fact what got me hooked on foreign dramas. I gave the story a rating of 8.5 because the overall plot is rather common in today's dramas...Good girl-bad boy accidentally fall in love. But despite that there is so much that happens throughout the drama that you'll forget about those overused themes. In fact, it can be quite the emotional rollercoaster. Just when things are starting to seem too good to be true, something else is thrown into the pot to keep it boiling and flavorful. But, what fun would a drama be per se without the 'drama?' I'll admit I really felt for Jandi and Gu Jun Pyo throughout the series. In fact, I was rather teary-eyed in countless scenes. One thing I didn't care for was where the drama ended. I felt like they could have and should have done more with the way they ended things. Considering everything the two main characters went through, I feel like I needed more for the ending to leave me feeling satisfied and hopeful. They could have had more to do with Ga Eul and Woo Bin, since we don't really get to know much about them throughout the drama. I gave the acting/cast a rating of 9. The acting and the cast was amazing in my opinion. Yeah, there are times where it seems to be a little too cheezy or unrelatable with some of the characters...but they remain the same throughout the drama. So maybe it wasn't overacting, but rather being very loyal to the people they portray. I gave the music a rating of 9. I really enjoyed the music. It was very catchy and pleasant to listen to. The only song I didn't particularly care for was the one at the beginning of each episode. Didn't impress me much to begin with and for some reason, where the song ended off at the beginning leaves me kinda hanging. I gave the rewatch value a rating of 10 because I immediately rewatched the drama after finishing it, and I'm on my third time watching it. Doesn't get old. Doesn't get boring. Overall I thought the show deserved a 10 because despite it's flaws, it was a great drama. I love the characters. I love the storyline. I love the music. I love the drama altogether!
