The sound track of this drama is incredibly beautiful. I may have to watch it again just to listen to the music!

I just finished this, and while it wasn't perfect, I enjoyed most of it. However the ending is a bit odd, IMO. I noticed that the agent who bought the sculptures has the same surname as our ML. I know Yan is a fairly common surname in China, but I wonder if that's supposed to give us a clue of some sort. Maybe the ML's dad bought everything? Anyway, I'll give it an 8 out of 10.

Her mother was in the black-white chasm because she'd been 'infected' by one of the earth owls and therefore couldn't go back home. She became a 'wraith' and lived in the chasm.

I think Yan Tuo's mother and sister were both killed by Lin Xi Rou but I'm not positive about that.

As far as the last scene goes, I have no idea....

I really like Dilraba's styling and wardrobe in this drama. Her make up is somewhat understated, but still beautiful.

Personally, I'm tired of the perfect fairy tale couple. I know people often watch dramas for escape, but sometimes it's good to watch a more realistic story about how a couple overcomes their issues and comes back stronger.

Sometimes it's easier on your own soul to deliberately forgive someone, no matter how awful they are, and then move on with your own life without looking back. If you hold on to the anger and pain, it wears you down over time, and it can even affect your physical health. Forgive them and be done with them forever.

That being said, I wish they'd normalize Kdrama parents being kind and supportive for their children. That way we wouldn't have to wish for retribution.

I feel the same way when people say actors don't have chemistry, meaning there isn't a lot of skinship. Chemistry can come from the way the characters look at each other and respond to each other. That can be so much more 'romantic' than some wild lovemaking scene.

The chemistry is definitely not explosive but I think it's there. To me it's obvious the two main leads are attracted to each other but their family situation is weird, plus it seems dating during high school is frowned upon in some places. ML is awkward because he never had time for girls since he was supporting his family.

I can almost imagine him as a teenager who's thinking, "when I have a girlfriend, I'm going to do everything for her! She'll never have to worry about anything, because I'll take care of her." That's not realistic nor is it healthy, but IMO it would be a realistic response to his situation with his family.

I think if she was on the outside looking in as a young girl, she might've thought he had a perfect family instead the horrible reality he was facing.

I haven't watched the whole thing yet, so please don't flame me, but....

Since our ML's father is abusive to his family, the ML may not really understand all of the ins and outs of a romantic relationship. It could be he's making a lot of mistakes (of all kinds) because he doesn't know any better. Now, should he be learning from those mistakes? Definitely, but that takes time and also patience on the part of the FL.

I think a lot of viewers want 'perfect' leading characters right from the beginning, but real people make mistakes. That's how they change and grow.

I may change my mind about how the story is written as I get further. Who knows? Maybe I made a mistake, too.

I'm glad you explained it because the synopsis makes the story sound shady.

I think she decided not to get back together with her fiance' because she was afraid he wouldn't be able to handle her deep depression if she had a recurrence of her cancer. I looked it up...the recovery rate from stage 2 stomach cancer after 5 years is about 70%, so there'd be a chance that it flare up again. He had trouble dealing with how depressed she was after her treatments the first time, and she assumes he'd have the same reaction if the cancer shows up again. Of course, as viewers we know that's probably an over the top reaction but this is a Kdrama. I also wonder if he was the one who told her co-workers that she had stomach cancer, since they were people he knew. Maybe she felt that he had betrayed her. Just my point of view....

I haven't finished it yet, but from what I can tell about our ML, his parents have an awful marriage and I think because of that, he doesn't communicate well at all. But you're right...at times our ML character is insufferable.

I enjoyed Love Scout a lot.

I think it shows that those who knew about the switch cared about them deeply as individuals with distinct personalities. In that way the series shows the difference between superficial interactions and caring interactions.

I enjoyed it. I thought the acting was top notch. It does take a bit of imagination to accept that adult twins could trade places and people wouldn't notice but I suppose that was the point: nobody in the office wanted to have anything to do with Mi-Rae. I'd give it an 8.5.

that's unfortunate. I was trying to watch it late at night so maybe if I'm more alert it'll make more sense. I want to like it...

I'm having trouble getting through the first episode! Our hero leaves his brother with a man who saves them in the forest, and then in scene just a few minutes later , he accosts our heroine in town, wanting to know where the bad guys have taken his brother! Did something happen off screen that we didn't see? It's very confusing, and the editing has made it difficult for me to enjoy the story! I'll probably try to continue, but this choppy action doesn't bode well for the rest of the series.

I just came here to say the same thing! The actors are responsible for how they present the story, not for the way it's written! The director and producer should have hired someone to make sure everything was done the proper way. How would the average person even know about those details?
