I was very invested in the story till half of it, i couldn't predict what was going to happen and that was very nice but then the yoon ha and joon ki plot just got into a loop of slways the same thing, the same with her "fights" with her older sister where she didn't do anything. Loved the chang soo and ji yi story, best thing on the drama. The last episode was way too rushed, i wanted to see the end of stuff, a lot wasnt satisfying like: why didnt yoon ha's father get a proper punishment for being a terrible human being? Why didn't yoon ha's mother leave when she said a bunch of times that she was in a abusive relationship and that she didnt want to stay in that house any longer? What happened to the fight on the older sister and the older brother? Who ended up being the company's vice president?
The first half of the drama was really nice, thr second part could've been better if they didn't kept doing the same stuff every episode.

i do not know why this drama took a low rate although it is really a good one
the plot was really good
the episodes a little bit slow motion but definitely not boring
it is a social story talks about influence, authority, betrayal, bad family relations, friendship, envy, corruption, greediness , rapacity & of course all kinds of love
every thing in real life
& Park Hyung Shik his role was awesome i really loved him he made me laugh many times
my favorite kind of drama to has a happy ending although it' is a little tepid ending for me but
its smooth drama & catchy if it's in ur list u should watch it

disclaimer: I have watched 8/16 episodes
The romance is so good.
The lines are so good.
The chemistry is so good.
The second couple are so in love I cannot take it.
2nd FL wins best Second Female Lead E.VER!!!
The ost is a feel good ost
The whole drama is a feel good one.
I expected a heavy melodrama I'm glad it isn’t …or is it… turning into one.
I wish it was longer. I watched it so quickly and it felt like it left a greater impact.
Also it felt like old dramas; a drama with a plot, not just a concept. I really enjoyed it, a lot.
I’m so happy writers like this one exist. Her dramas are always full of soul and love. They don't feel like empty shells, with an empty concept. Yes, they all become melodramatic and maybe draggy but I don't mind that, because it does have meaning in some way.

Antihero ML, main couple's realistic romance and second couple more like ML/FL with better chemistry

ML and FL are more like SML and SFL (especially anti hero-ish ML) and kind hearted SML and positive lovely but poor SFL are more like ML and FL. Plus all 4 main leads have almost equal screen time (though FL maybe has more and except of 4 lead's screen time there are lots of scenes/story line of FL's family). Even romance of second couple looks more like main romance, on the other hand main couples relationship is somehow cold and uncertain. I would say in this drama 4 leads are equally mains.

As everyone mentions, second couple as characters and as romance are better, though I still have interest in main couple, because 1. I like ML actor 2. I'm interested in ML as character, we still don't know what kind of person he is, what's his goal and what he really feels about his close people. Though I can't see chemistry in main couple and will be bored/skip after story will be clear.

one of best thing in this drama - it doesn't have primitive cliche dialogues, silly misunderstandings and stupid characters who can't see/think/understand obvious things and doesn't have 0 logic. This characters think and talk like normal people, sometimes dialogues are even quite complex and about subjects that really makes you think about it.

Overall it's not WOW drama but still interesting, it quite realistically shows human characteristic trough main leads, I like that it hasn't traditional narrative that poor ML is better person than rich playboy-ish SML (for the middle of the drama it's more opposite), also showing that poor people want to be rich/powerful is natural, also these wish can have different shades (ML and SFL for example). At the end all this details make characters real humans not fairytale-ish perfect heroes and I like it. In this drama main 4 characters are all different and quite 3D, though I less like FL and her reasons/characteristics could be better written.

Edit: I don't agree that main couple is bad/uninteresting, opposite - they are very interesting because story is realistic, ML even kind of "bad" is realistic, which is rare... Not every couple who dates has big chemistry and big love from the beginning but in dramas we only see this "true big love stories" especially with main leads, so I liked that in this case it was realistic story/romance. On the other hand we have second couple with cute chemistry and all the vanilla that drama lovers like!
So could be said - this drama managed to show both realistic and fairytale romances, without much primitiveness and cliches.

Não vá com grandes expectativas

Um drama muito gostosinho, ótimo pra se ver depois daqueles dramas de fortes emoções e reviravoltas.
Não vá com grandes expectativas, aposto que muita gente por ver o Hyung Shik no elenco criou enormes expectativas, que não foram supridas. O personagem do Hyung Shik nem é o principal. Apesar dos dois casais terem grande desenvolvimento, ele é do casal secundário. Lamento informar.
O casal principal é ótimo, amei a protagonista. E o Sung Joon ta lindo, por falar nele... nunca mais vi dramas atuais dele. Vou procurar saber por onde ele anda. kkkk
Não espere grandes reviravoltas ou ser surpreendido.

Se estiver sem nada para assistir.

O que dizer... um bom drama, sem muitas reviravotas. Se estiver sem nada para assistir, que é quase impossível em nossa lista interminável, vale a pena. Não vá com grandes expectativas, aposto que muita gente pensou em assistir por causa do Hyung Shik no elenco, mas é bem linear. Gostei mais do casal Chang Soo (Park Hyung Shik) e da Ji Yi (Im Ji Yeon), achei que passaram mais emoção, gostei também de ver os 4 como amigos, com alguns desentendimentos de vez em quando. um drama gostosinho de assistir, mas só isso nada mais.
