Worth More Than You Think

This episode didn't have all the crazy Gong Xi moments,and it wasn't as funny as the previous episodes, but I think this episode brought something else instead. Episode 5 focused more on the personal growth for Gong Xi. She really starts to see acting, not only as her method for revenge, but something that challenges her in a personal way. The audience has a chance to see Gong Xi grow personally.

Ambition can bite, Ruoxi knows it !

In this ep, we went from lovey dovey time to (really) tense atmosphere between 8th and Ruoxi.. This man is too blind to see what's going to happen to him... Let go, girl and live for yourself. She did it :)

I'll give it a ten later, when she finds her other half :) !

This drama is really well managed, not too much infos by ep but enough to make fall completly for the characters ! More more and more Bu Bu jing xin !

a decent start

I can't say Ji Hyun Woo is my favorite actor but I think Yoo In Na will more than make up for that.

Thrilling and heartbreaking

It is thrilling to see Jae Ha go to North Korea to be with the woman he loves at her sadest, but it was heartbreaking to watch Hang Ah break down over the loss of their baby. I wish she had let Jae Ha comfort her, but I can understand why she doesn't trust him...or maybe it is that she doesn't trust herself not to just let go and be with him even after he has treated her like crap in the past. Do you get the since that he wants to down play how much she means to him so that they can't use her against him? I think what he really wants to do is just take her away from it all and live happily ever after, but he has tons of responsibility. Anyway, I'm hoping for a happy ending love fest...hope I get it.

AAAHHH...Jae Ha's mother helping him trick that jerk, Secratary Eun. I think this has been mentioned in one of the other reviews. How did Si Kyung come from that guy???

Oooohhhh...Si Kyung...can you get any cuter and more loyal. What a beautiful man!!! and his interaction with the princess is pricelss!!!

Looking at the previes for next episode there is gonig to be some Hang Ah action...and I'm ready for it!!!

Tolerance...

The main lead's acting is still annoying, but the story is still interesting and the secondary characters make it worth my while too.



This woman is so thin, so I find it ridiculous that they make it seem like she can't fit into those jeans and that dress when it's extremely obvious that she can, there was even some space left in those jeans. I've seen women get into jeans a size smaller than their real one with more ease than she did.



Also, she needs to stop drinking, at least in public. She always makes a fool out of herself, that's not great nor does it make it endearing. She is not learning from that since she keeps getting drunk and acting like a total loser...

Finall... Oh no she changed her mind again !

It's not the first time she does that ! In the previous one, she hesitated but Young Gul said "Please stay..." with teary eyes and suddenly she became obedient and MUTE ! Is it going to happen again ? Is she just here to make the plot go on and develop hate between the 2 males ?

I'm mad at her ! I basically want to tell her off and make her wake up ! Even if Jae Hyuk seems like a jerk, Young Gul is worse, you can feel it. Jae Hyuk seems to love her so much, thinking about her while reading, being shy when she's near and his gentle smile when he saw her... Be together !

But my fascination ofr this drama is a little off now

I had enough of the confusion in this drama

Okay so I am really really annoyed with Ga Youngs actions.Come on Young Gul and others are making her sound like a baby ,I am 19 and 21 isnt that young to make those stupid desperate acts.Young Gul also should make up his mind. The Jae Hyuk has become a full time jerk...

Flat

I was a little disappointed by the ending and that it doesn't show what happens to the others. Did they really die when he left this world? Were they alive? And how did she get stuck being a babysitter all her life...lol



I was also hoping for a bit more devotion from him to her (Sujini) like when he hopelessly followed Kiha around. I hated every second of that pairing... -_-

what is really going on?

I gave this a higher rating this week, because I totally have no clue as to what is really going on.



Does Young Gul really love Ga Young or not???

Does Jae Hyuk even know what he wants???

Besides talent does Ga Young have a personality???

Who's side is Anna on???



The only thing that I am certain of is that Jae Hyuk's parents and president Jo are just mean, stupid jerks.



Yet again I ask myself why I am still watching this drama, but there is just something about it that makes me watch it every week.

that bear girl told him she couldn't handle that much power, he got what he deserved.

How do survive till the end?

So my most worrisome question is whether or not I will survive till the end of this drama...

I will start with my favourite subject of this episode, and actually of the whole drama (as much as possible ^^) Eun ShiKyung... This man is out of this world, do these kind people really exist in the world? I adore this person so much, I wish to meet him in the real life... His loyal, calm, mild, gentle heart just drives me crazy... I hope he ends up very happily with the princess ^^

HangAh's reaction to the news of miscarriage broke my heart, and though I totally understood her father trying to cheer her up by talking and talking, I was begging him to just shut up (in my mind) and leave her alone.

Oh, secretary Eun, are you even a person or a trash? Wow to your worldview (I wonder if he really is ShiKyung's father, how could a trash like that raise a miracle like ShiKyung?) So sacrificing the woman and living calmly after that is your ideal portrait of a king? You evil, pitiful, old man... I am glad he's dealing with JaeHa, and when I heard JaeHa's answer to his 'advice' I started adoring JaeHa too, now I am seeing him as a man who is ready to protect his woman!

Then again change to Shi-Kyung and the princess...kyaa~ for this scene... haha~ innocent ShiKyung... dropping the princess like a hot rock on the bed... pffft~ you cute guy...^^

And change to his loyal soldier self with the king, I just loved how he looked at JaeHa so proud and admiring with his King! You're gonna do what I'm thinking you're gonna do, riiight? ^^

North Korea... Oh my gee... did you just bring in a wounded and totally broke woman into your office showing her a video where everyone calls her bad things to anger her and make her tell... what?... the truth?... what truth?... I'm wondering what the general was expecting to hear from her... that JaeHa raped her or what? This is precisely why I love HangAh's character, while being a soldier and patriot, she is also a person and first of all a proud woman! Way you go girl!

Oh~ Yeah~ JaeHa is playing spy-spy games with the secretary, kickass... haha~ I love he has his mother helping him with the plan, the scene between them was SO touching...

Oh, my, JaeHa is crossing the border (did you hear his comic comment to ShiKyung not to protect him for the medal?.. you just have to have a badass sense of humor to crack a joke at that moment, your Majesty!) He passes the border!!!

But we all know that this is NOT the most scary part for the king, right? The meeting with HangAh is the most difficult part (tell me about more than 20 guns pointing at your face).

Oh, crap... when HangAh told him that even hatred is a feeling she doesn't have for him and she hates only herself for believing in him so many times (and in the corner of my mind I am wondering what else in the box under the cosmetics...). And then she begins her talk about the child... and I'm weeping... I'm sure JaeHa would weep and become dirt under her feet if he thought that would help him to be forgiven (I honestly believed that when I saw his face looking at her so gently with tears in his eyes...)

The call of secretary... (did I like this old man for this moment? oh my) Even if he's a traitor he gave JaeHa the chance to believe in himself, I'm thankful to him.

Oh~ how could an episode pass without creepy magic trick from BongGu-shhi...

Confrontation of North and South... I was watching JaeHa's face and telling him, don't say anything stupid, fella, and he just has to call himself a psycho :D LOL, you're the bomb, man!

Yay~ for the return of HagAh the soldier and protector of her man! Can't wait to go home and watch 12th episode, this show is seriously messing with my mind...

Holding steady

I'm very much liking this drama so far. The acting is solid. Jang Geun Suk is impressing me more than from You're Beautiful and MSOAN. The cinematography is amazingly beautiful...the light, colors and big scenery. Which is to be expected from the "Season Dramas" writer/director. I'm feeling a little sense of doom from this '70's couple which I hope will be satisfied when we get to present times. On to episode 3!

Amazing....

I was glued to the screen the whole episode. This is probably the only drama I've watched with the most amazing beginning. It was like watching a movie and the effects were awesome!
