Nine years trying to finish it

It has been nine years since I started to watch this drama and its time I'm not able to finish it, I dont know either cry or laugh.

First of all, gotta say my reviews are based on my own criteria and how many time took me to finish it's one of them and this one had took me so long.
Since the beginning, when I read the sinopsis I was a little bit reluctant about it even if Song HyeKyo, Kim Bum and Jo Insung was there (I was so in love with them in that time, even know a little bit) but the plot for me was so toxic. I don’t know how, if i was in fl's shoes, could fell in love with a man who has been lying to me all the time, know things like that could happened in real life maybe it would be like a syndrome, but since people try to feel identify with the characters and I can't feel conexion with none all of the characters here, I haven't been able to finish it, even if I try, because I don't like to let unfinished dramas (I have a lot anyways) but well, that's my opinion and this is all. Thanks for reading.

Undoubtedly BEST DRAMA OF 2023

I've been watching dramas for so long, I've been dropping a lot of dramas too, but this drama has caught me like no one else has done this year, I hooked up to it since the first episode was aired and got me waiting for it every weekend.

As a diehard fan of Lee MinKi and Han JiMin I was expecting the drama and it surprised me how I ended up loving all the mistery around the plot, the plot was just unique, it's definately a drama that can't be seen nowadays in dramaland, the ost was excellent, the acting, everything! If you love comedy, drama and mistery all mixed up, this drama it's a must for you.

If it weren’t for NamKoong Min

If it weren’t for Namkoong Min I wouldn’t have finished watching this drama.

After about the 10th episode wondered why three guys were attracted to her, she was so drab.

By the end I didn’t care why they were separated. The brother/sister then love thing was creepy from her half brother and her step brother. Renaming her Hye Won, after their dead daughter, was creepy, too.

My favorite character was Namkoong Min’s character, Kang Dong Ha.

I ended up FFing through Ha Neul’s and Geon’s scenes in the end because I saw no chemistry. In fact I ended up wanting Geon with Hyo Joo.

It was so good, like the ending how it was.

I'm late reviewing this one, but I really wanted to share my opinion (even if has been almost 3 years since they aired the last episode,). First of all, I couldn't be more disaree with almost all the opinions here I mean, I respect them, but Im disagree and makes me think we weren't watching the same drama and I have the same fight on twt while it was airing.

To all, I'm gonna resume it, this drama has it all, good music (excellent if u ask me, GAHO, Red Velvet and others made it up so well) good acting performance, good characters and even if you don't accept it, good plot.

You gonna feel binged to it since the first episode and gonna start to feel emotional about Dal Mi's story, You gonna feel angry and gonna want to know when everything gonna be revealed and maybe, if you are objective, you gonna accept the ending.

Here we go with the spoilers, everyone was so disappointed in 2021 when Do San got the girl and even now, I can find dissapointed comments on internet about how they just found out Sr. Han didn't got the girl and thats the only reason why people give to the drama a one star review, just beacuse they didn't like the ending throwing the rest of the story.

Yes, its true the relationship between DalMi's grandmother and Sr. Han, was one of the best things in the drama. It melted my heart how she loved him as a grandson and confort him everytime as soon they met again, but for a lot of people this got mixed with Dal Mi and Sr. Han's relationship and they assumed he has to be with her just because her grandmother. For me the ending was what it has to be, even if there were things that killed my braing while watching this drama (like the relationship dalmi have with her mother, I still cant understand why she had leave her and be ok with that, i know he apologized later, but even when that happened I cant still be ok with it), so the ending its the sum of all the things that happend thorough the drama and even if Sr. Han was so sweet, he had a lot of opportunities to be with her, but he didn't dare to say anything and Do San got all the opportunities and did even a little bit more for her... and well, that's my opinion upon to this drama. That's all. ^^

Go for it

I really don't know why I gave 10 out 10 , may be I liked the story and the direction part ,even background or the chemistry between the leads or may be introduction of small characters like the reporter who always helped them or may be her cousin brother's character .
Story was about revenge . Main male character's family killed the female lead character . However she saved . She return back to her place after so many years to take a revenge for this she used the male lead's character . The different thing I had observed in the drama that hero knew everything except the actual truth . He knew that she purposely entered into his life but he ready to use and even he told her also that he knew everything and helped her till last . This difference I had seen in the story.
Atleast give a try to this drama dear viewers.

Dong Yi (2010) - of course another Han Hyo Joo drama that is why I watched this one. I did like this drama honestly even if she was not the female lead, still I am happy that she is the female lead. This historical drama is one of the reasons why I started liking historical dramas. Dong Yi has a good plot and transition that I came to search what really happened in history of Korea all because of this drama. I also like Jin Hee’s portrayal as king . Even though this is a historical drama, I like the fact that the first parts of the drama is not that serious, though eventually it did get serious. I like the conflicts and I was affected with how the drama unfolded. Pretty much a recommended drama.

Lovely drama for some light romance & comedy

The basic story line is nothing new but with some refreshing touches like the FL pretending to be a weak beauty. This was a good way to inject some humour into this drama and she did it nicely. I also enjoyed the cute animal art work.

I liked that this drama didn’t try to be too smart with a vague ending and instead had an ending that was happy and not rushed. At the same time, it wasn’t too unrealistic (ie have all couples work out) but instead showed one that parted and others in the beginning / middle of their romance.

The chemistry between the main couple worked well and the way the ML confessed his feelings to the FL was something new (and not involving fireworks) so I appreciated it even more. The love triangle was not overly dramatised and it was good to see the other love interest not go overboard to protect or win the favour of the FL.

What suffered in this drama was the villains - not properly fleshed out in terms of their motivation and ability to carry out their plans. When she came into the room with more glamorous dressing and make up, I was at a loss as I thought it was a new character. Then you find out all this could have been avoided if she had spoken up before her marriage… so take this into account and just enjoy the romance part of the drama.

The ending that saw them speaking to the audience reminds me of some old old dramas / movies that do this and it was a nice playful touch.

Creating Destiny (2010) - I did watch this drama because of the main leads because I got curious. This drama is the reason why the main leads got together in real life so I had expectations from this drama. Since the drama revolves around the family, it took me longer to embrace the drama since I don't usually like this type of drama. This drama is quite long and I would not watch it again for sure, it's too dragging for me. The storyline is also quite the typical Korean drama.

I don't have anything against the cast. I think they did pretty well with their roles.
