LOVE LOVE LOVE IT
Okay so I’m not usually one for dark thriller’s but this one had me hooked. There were parts that I wanted to skip over (generally too much rehashing) but overall I would definitely watch this one again. KYK was amazing as usual as was the rest of the cast. OMG I cannot say it enough this was a top notch piece. The romance side is short lived but revived and the character development throughout is incredible to watch. I would most definitely recommend this one and it has become one of my favourites I think.Was this review helpful to you?

Loved it
Although I’ve never seen the Cdrama version (and probably never will) I have to disagree with most of the reviewers here. Could be my personal preference but I loved how the drama unfolded and the chemistry between the actors was there. It’s definitely a lighter drama and fluffy feelings abound but the fact that they hit troubled waters and manage to navigate through them - in the end. I appreciated it. I will probably rewatch this one for sure. Nice and light and feel good. I love the innocence in it too.Was this review helpful to you?
Not a Keeper forMe
Okay so the hardest thing to say about this drama is, unless it had Ahn Jae-Hyeon and Gu Hye-Sun in it I probably would NOT have watched it past the first 5 episodes. I pretty much think it was completely wasted on their talents and the storyline was lacking. Did I appreciate the fact the writer made the vampires come from a virus instead of mythology - yes it was creative but that’s probably where the creativity stops. To see evil get more evil and people just dropping dead for the sake of it is a wasted story. No creativity in it.Rewatch value = I wouldn’t waste my 20 hrs of time on it thank you. Once was more than enough.

Fools might think it's the same old same old storyline but the cast in this drama did an amazing job all round. I particularly loved Joy's role in this whole production, she makes it worth watching.

Mehhhh!!!!!!
Sorry folks, thought I’d love this one because of the cast but it flopped for me. I loved the scenery from Cuba and the artwork but the story fell flat for me. The MFL could have done a better job in her role and I feel like at that age she should have a bit more confidence in herself, especially with all of her achievements. I do understand the abuse she suffered from the ex-in-laws would have left it’s mark but still I feel like she could have done the role better.Music was, from memory, enjoyable and fit the scenes.
Rewatch value I have to say I’ll probably never rewatch this one again. Unlike “Oh My Venus” or “Rain or Shine” or even “Stong Girl Bong Soon” I have too many other favorites to rewatch than to sit down and torture myself with this one. I do apologize to those who absolutely loved this one but it’s just my opinion and taste. ?

Climate Change agenda
Okay so as far as stories go, this one is just full of paraphernalia and NWO agenda of “climate change” and chaos instead of family.I definitely had my laughs and tears but overall - it lacked big time apart from the agenda of the above comment.
Watched it because of the brilliant cast layout and was thoroughly disappointed in the end.
When family is the core of society that leads to health and longevity (even if we’re told otherwise by those who are trying to break it down) is portrayed as something that pain cannot overcome because of parents bad choices then we have most definitely lost a very big blessing in our lives.
So glad that the couple decided to keep the baby in the end and they’re decision to overcome things together, again a family thing, shows what love can do.
The older couple who decide to fight to keep their marriage and family together also helped me continue to the end.
The modern idea that marriage is the “end of love” is a fallacy. Love is a decision, not merely a feeling that comes or goes with a whim. It’s the decision to stick it out through good, bad and ugly.
It also brings amazing blessing in life and society and family is one thing that you can come back to, yes even when it seems like the ugly kind. I’m not saying that there are those who don’t deserve to have kids or those who have been abused or are abusers but family is still family.

Yuck!!!
Too real for me….. I didn’t enjoy the blood, gore or evil intent behind the murders. The fact that the one guy doing the many killings is in power because of daddy is too old a tale and sadly too true at times. Anyone in power should be watching out for those who are weak and less than not exploiting others to fulfill selfish desires of their own greed. The second season was much the same and I have to say I’ll never pick it up again. I liked the idea of voice profiling and loved that side of the story but the gore and violence was too much for me.Was this review helpful to you?

Disappointed Much
Okay there have been a few reviews that match mine so I feel like I’m in good company lol. Let me start by saying I love love love SJK and the main actors weren’t bad actors (although my mate JYB did let me down in her portrayal of her character - however I don’t know that I can wholly blame her or the writer’s depiction of her character) overall I feel like the writer let this one down. The fact that there was supposed to be romance (limited and odd) within the action drama did not end well on this score and the whole story left a lot to be desired.The support actors did their best to be who they were supposed to be but even these guys were oddballs, particularly the baddies - just oddballs.
The one thing I must say (I know it’s been said before but I completely agree with them) OTY - OMG his portrayal of the villainous evil guy but Mr Nice guy was superb and amazing. The 2 male leads had me throughout this one and it took me a while to get through it because the writing was so poor, I had to drop and then pick i tup several times over after a break of some time between. I’m usually a drama junkie and can get through a drama within 3 or 4 days if it’s gripping and compelling. This one - sorry to say took me over a month to get through and this is the greatest disappointment and letdown because of my admiration and love for the 2 male leads.
Not sure if I’ll ever fully recover to be honest as my love for both these guys has been scarred from bad writing and possibly directing. I’ll definitely be hesitating the next time I have to choose a drama with my favourites in them. Although I’ll probably end up watching them anyway purely because they’re NOT BAD ACTORS.
Will I ever REWATCH this one - Never again!!!! 절대!!!! NEVER

Too all over the place
It would seem i was one of the few who got lost on this one. I love Kim Woo Bin to the moon and back but this drama epitomises agony for me. Apart from being chopped up storyline’s of far too many couples, the fact its including an affair is reprehensible to me. Sorry all i dropped it in episode 5 for that reason.The disrespect shown to elders and the lack of caring is beyond reason even if they are at fault.
Acting is terrific for the roles they play and the cast are amazing. I’m just unhappy about the storyline.
I don’t know what else to say.
I need 500 words to leave this review and can’t seem to find more to say.
The soundtrack is fine, and sweet. But still at times leaves a lot to be desired..
Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo dearly me………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. Father daughter relationship is still on edge and disrespectful.
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Pleeeeeeeeeassssssseeeeeeeeeee

Not worth your time
I’m sorry folks but I thought this would be a good one, considering the actor lineup. Nope……. Dropped it after the 2nd episode. Too much infidelity and stupidity for me to enjoy it. Like father like son, certainly sits with the youngest son in this storyline. The oldest is portrayed as an imbecile who can’t even speak up. The middle son — your mate already has the girl despite the wheelchair, get over it already.I just cannot deal with the writer’s storyline and I’ve only watched the 2 episodes. Just cannot put myself through anymore trauma.
