The rating of this drama will probably depends of the nationality and age of the viewer and not the plot itself.

This drama was funny, exciting and got emotional a lot deeper in the story line, but it was well plotted, realistic when it comes to how studying works (not like other dramas where the not so bright child suddenly becomes an ace) and regarding love. You won't know who to ship with Harumi.
Firstly I was like "NO, this isn't right" with where the plot was heading, but understanding another ones feeling, well that is indeed something totally else.
Phrases I loved from this drama:
"Isn't love enough?"
"the brain doesn't understand the meaning of the word 'NO'
and "I'm old enough to make my own choices"

I usually do not like these types of films, but I have to say I was very pleased with it. I didn't for once thought of pausing to 'take a walk'. That was how I was glued.
This film have everything from action to gruesomeness, suspense to thriller and even family love. No romance, unless you count jealousy as a form of romance.
The tale is about a 2yr boy who was kidnapped, his life 14 years later and then the results of what the kidnappers have sowed.
What I mostly like is how everything comes together in the end, the tale behind the tale - Jealousy.
How important it is to leave your past in the past and not allowing it to haunt you, as that monster may become you once it's no more visible.

Pet lovers will enjoy and understand the deeper meaning of this drama.

I’m not sure why other rate this drama lower than 8/10 but for me it a almost 10/10. Probably because I’m a cat lover. This drama had me laughing, crying as well as thinking. Oh, how I miss having a cat by my side so much. The story line and acting was quite good (including the cats’)the actors both handsome (including the cats’). The story line was a lot deeper than just the simple magical fairytale it plays out. If you have a pet at home, you’ll probably be one of those that will give this drama a good 10/10 because you‘ll understand the feelings of the characters first hand. My re-watch 5/10 is because in general I avoid watching ANY dramas or movies more than once.

I saw this movie in the FEED column today. I thought it might be something different and boy, I wasn't disappointed at all.

This is such a adorable movie!!!

I think any generation will enjoy it.
I love that this drama was made using both animation and real-life, in such a way that is doesn't even look stupid. Actually beautifully succeeded. There is very little films or dramas that try this and actually succeed.
The music match the scenes perfectly, and the ending is cute-af.
I don't usually re-watch any movies or dramas, but if I walked in a room while this film is playing, I would probably sit down and watch it again.

I really enjoy Korean Historical dramas, especially these types. This drama had me glued. I was actually rooting for the FL and the 2nd male lead as I wasn’t fond of the main ML character. My favorite character was Gu Yong-ha, played by Song Joong-ki. He honestly made the drama interesting. I also liked the way the drama end with the main villain, Ha In-soo, though it was very sad to read that actor passed away in real life. Overall this drama is on the top of my favorite dramas, 100% worth the watch. My low rate on rewatch isn’t due to the drama but generally I do not rewatch any dramas nor movies.

This is now literally one of those cute-little-stupid dramas.

A very short, but cute (and stupid) drama (at the same time). Full on romance, with a very fast fall-in-love story line for the main characters. I loved the other couples more, as their stories had a more realistic pace.

I won't say that I wasted my time but maybe also not wisely.

I'm not sure if there was a lesson to be learn from this drama, but what I did get was 'that you win some and you loose some', not everything when it comes to the matter of the heart or brain, will go according to our plans.

a Phrase I loved from this drama "If passed by, it's fate. But if you fell into, it's love. (Episode 11's title)

The first part (episode 1-6) I reviewed only 7/10, then I struggled to get past the first two episodes of Part 2, BUT since episode three everything became exciting, its like the drama suddenly got life.
It has a lot of twist and turns, and is difficult to know who is right or wrong at this point.

Mostly I like to watch the parts of Eun Som more than psycho Saya, but overall the story line got much better. At this point I have no idea how the plot can turn out and that is what is makes a good drama for me.
I give this Part 2 of this drama 9/10 for being unpredictable.

My low rate on re-watch isn't because of this drama, just in general I don't like re-watching any drams or movies.

This drama is totally different from other Kdramas. I'm usually a lover of fantasy dramas but the first episode was a dragged for me but the following episodes made up for it.
What I hate so far of this drama is the way they cut the scenes and music from one scene to another.

Over all I am at this point eager to watch the second part.

SPOILERS next up:

I must say since I saw that Ta Gon is a Igutu as well, I thought he might be one of the heavenly objects or something, forgetting they came down only 20 years (since birth of Eun Som, Tan Ya and remember the child taken by Ta Gon in the beginning) long after he was born already. Those three born at the same time makes them the bell, the sword, and the mirror, which is revealed at the end. I DID NOT see that one coming, Tan Ya being one of them.
If Eum Som and Saya shared 'dreams'of each others life, I'll assume that this will become a battle between Eum Som and Saya for Tan Ya's love and Ta Gon being Saya's 'father'will manipulate Saya to become evil in order to cased Eum Som out of the picture. I really hope I am wrong about this, because then the plot is quite predictable.

Watch in 2020 for the first time. I thought that a 13 year old Japanese drama won’t be worth it and I’ll be dropping it after one episode BUT SO WORTH THE WATCH! This drama was quiet silly but better that the Korean version. The Korean version was much more on a serious note, were I found this Japanese version to be more enjoyable. I still need to watch the remake, but overall this drama had me rolling a lot, which usually makes up my rating when it comes to dramas. Laughter and Romance - and it had it both. Rewatch - well personally I’M not keen on rewatching ANY dramas or movies, so that rating isn’t due to the drama itself.

Okay, firstly Shinonome can push me up against a wall any time!!!
Probably the only reason why I end up watching this drama.

The story was okay, but not wow (I started with another drama while watching this), acting, well was good, character that I mostly disliked was probably the FL, Maejima. Not because she was weak when it comes to sexual desire, but she's stupid in understanding others. Now a person that is extremely good with planning but bad at reading people?!? doesn't makes sense at all.
Overall, its not a totally waste of time, as the episodes run is short and there isn't much anyway. Cute love story with a good ending.

Spoiler Alert:

I couldn't understand why the drama's title is 'Perfect Crime', something only made clear in the last few episodes which end up having to do with Ono the 3rd male lead...

I'll assume the writers might have wanted to go for a deeper story/meaning about when do one actually start noticing that you love... or like someone...

Firstly the movie itself wasn't bad, but not at all great. I'm surprise at the overall high rate.
I felt there was something missing from this movie and the sound track didn't match it at all, though very catchy - There's much more I can say about this but it would give away the ending.
The story line was given away within the first 10 mins, and even though the movie was already only an hour and a half, there was time to take a run-through memory lane. The beginning and the ending did though add up together.
