This drama was good, but not spectacular. There were plenty of comedic moments, moments of realization and it dealt with relevant issues as well. Maybe it was trying to do too much. Anyway the story was interesting but sometimes things occurred as if it were "movie magic" (my term for unrealistic happenings). The fashion was hot, It made me think of Sex in the City. I liked that they were incorporating liberal values and the way she was trying to tempt the guy was pure comedy. I didn't like the amount of crying that went on, I understand she was supposed to seem vulnerable, and I also felt as if there were no sub plots, no other stories in the drama but the main one. This drama is exactly what you think it is, and if you are a true drama addict you will already know exactly how it ends. No surprises, no shocks , just laughter and another one off of your "to watch" list.

I liked the cast but I wasnt in love with them. Thier acting was very good though. To be honest I never grew to like the main female character. I kept watching to see Ryu Su Young\''s smile.
The music was very good although with 2 songs it got to be a little repatative.
I\''m not sure whether Id watch this drama again just because I dont feel I have to see the characters again.
Overall this has an interesting enough story but I dont have any special feelings for it. I\''d reccommend watching it once though when you\''ve exhausted better choices.

OLD IS GOLDthis drama was one of the smoothest events
but at the same time it was weird
first i felt that many actors wasn't pure korean like
Shin Eun Kyung & Yoo Geon
her features was more Taiwanese or Philippian and his features was more Spanish
Ryu soo young ..
this was first drama watching him his soooo cute oppa with his smiley optimistic face
i loved him much
And the two main stories was parallel to each other they never met
once they display a story of the main two they made u forget all about the other one
this was a huge flaw at the story for me
shin eun bothered me when she decided to regain back Ryu Soo Young
after kicking him out many times and humiliating him as if he should be under her case any time she wants
she hurts Kim Shi Won without any logical reason
they asked her many times if she loves soo young and she denied
and suddenly wreck between them and decided to bring him back
i was so angry at this part
i was happy and interested more at the second couple Choi Jung Yoon & Yoo Geon
the woman had a very nice character development cause she teases me alot at the beginning with her weakness
Park Sang Min was a great actor her succeeded bothering me much cause he was the live example of selfishness
what i was really wonder about his GF why she changed her mind and suddenly her conscience awakes
as usual the end bothered me alot for the second couple which i was interested more in
in general it was very nice old drama shows u how love & support can change ur heart and character alot

Breaks with tradition - changing cultural norm
8/10 is my rating. This is a 2007 South Korean Drama spanning 16, 60 minute, episodes. Kim Dang Ja (Shin Eun Kyung) is the editor of a magazine who decides she wants to have a baby because her biological clock is ticking. Now she just has to pick the perfect father and convince him to be a no strings attached father. Choi Gi Chan (Ryu Soo Young) is a university professor who is smart and attractive and would make the perfect father in Kim Dang Ja’s eyes.
Spoiler ? I really liked the twist of having a Korean female deciding to raise a child solo. Seducing a man with no plan to have a relationship is something you would see more in American culture so I could relate to it from that perspective. The "side romance" was just beyond cute. I found I was as much, or more, interested in the outcome of that situation. It is very sad in the middle. I cried buckets of tears. I was not sure it would end well but it did. If you are okay with a sad sandwich (happy in the beginning and end but sad in the middle) I would recommend this one. I rated it down because I really felt I was dragged through the emotional ringer and that felt unnecessary to me.

Забавно было смотреть как главная героиня "валила" на себя мужика молодец. Целеустремленно шла к цели. Помимо основной парочки, там было еще две семьи: у одной все хорошо, этакая крепкая поддержка Гг. А у второй все плохо - муж два года изменяет жене и та его застукивает. В обще-то ситуация жутковатая - женщина 10 лет в браке, домохозяйка, она ужасно напугана перспективой остаться одной с сыном, даже если муж и готов поддерживать материально. Сыграно отлично. Она виснет на своем муже и не замечает его призрения к такой слабости и опостылевшей жене, еще и любовница подбрасывает дровишек... Благо подруги нашли ей парня, для начала чтобы муж приревновал, но все наверное догадались, что было потом.
