Kim Hee Sun and Ahn Jae Wook have great chemistry (I need to check out their previous drama together 'Sunflower' now ^^ hehe). I enjoyed their scenes together, they were entertaining at times, romantic at times and painfully sad at times :'( Min Su (AJW) works for Ki Tae whom he saved from being kidnapped 13yrs ago - Ki Tae says Min Su is his friend - but he treats him more like a slave than a friend (a friend would never do the things Ki Tae does to Min Su...ever.) Min Su knows this but puts up with it b/c his job is ok and he gets paid well - but when he meets Yeon Ju (KHS) he starts getting tired of how Ki Tae has been treating him. As the description says he meets Yeon Ju and her friend Jung Ae at a club where they lie to each other (which they later regret). I liked Min Su, Yeon Ju, Jung Ae (once she started acting more mature) and Hee Jung (Ki Tae's sister) Lee Tae Ran plays Hee Jung and she's so young and pretty on here ^^ (yes I'm a fan) luckily she's nothing like her brother on this drama who I will describe as a despicable scumbag. No HJ is nice, kind and bold (I liked that I could like her character on this drama). I will be following more of KHS' dramas in the future too (she too is really pretty in this drama).
Music: All classic stuff, I liked it but my two favorites were: 'Last Promise' by Choi Jae Hoon and 'Sad Fate' by Choi Jae Hoon & Choi Won Suk ^^ - Other songs: 'Doesn't Matter Now' by Oh Se Hyung, 'Confession' by Oh Se Hyung & Choi Jae Hoon, 'To Me' by Jang Hyun Chul, & 'Goodbye My Love' Epilogue by Ahn Jae Wook :)
I probably won't re-watch this b/c sad melo's are something I can usually only watch once.
I would recommend this to anyone who likes classic old dramas and or are a fan of sad melodramas.

Excellent Perspective
I really don’t like movies about cheating but I think the writer did an excellent job in focusing on the impact cheating has on ones life instead of taking the usual route and focusing on the act. I also liked the way the wife is portrayed. There was realism in how she evolves and takes back her life. I was also pleased that the other woman was not your usual portrayed young sexy vixen. I think that gave even more insight into the husband’s flaws and weaknesses. And God bless the husband’s mother and his business partner. Their reaction to learning of his cheating was stellar. I have read where some did not like the ending. For me, it was again realistic. Divorce does not mean the end of love or has to be a continuation of conflict. It was slow paced and I felt could have been told in maybe 14 episodes. Someone said don’t watch this if you want to get married. I disagree. If you are thinking of getting married watch this and think about what you should or shouldn’t do when you get married.Was this review helpful to you?
