Amazing me
Easy to watch
I like happy dramas and this is one of them. This gave me a surprise ... pleasantly surprise. This drama is on a sweet, fluffy, romantic side. FL is bright and optimistic, sweet, bubbly, kind, forgiving, hard working and ML is a genius with cold personality and has a peculiar kind of illness which gives him great memory. They fall in love and support each other through their Journey. It's a cliche with many sweet moments. Their chemistry is off the charts and other two couple are also good. Sound lead couple too has good chemistry FL is sassy and ML is cute and sweet. I recommend watching this when you just want to feel good and take a break from heavy stuff, well sometimes it can feel overly sweet as well. :)Was this review helpful to you?
Lee Joon gi
I kept putting this drama of on hold for many times and i don't know why. Ofcourse this was not a best watch but it was not bad either. This drama has a good star cast and you can feel all the different range of emotions too. It has humor, love story, villains and great fight scenes. Strong FL lead, if you are someone like me who can't tolerate sissy FL . This is my first drama of Lee Joon gi and i realized man, he is hot and sexy. That smile is a killer. He is a good actor. May be little too thin....hahaha but enjoyed watching him. Seyo Ye ji is not sexy or beautiful in traditional asian way but her voice is mature and soothing. She was a kick-ass FL in this drama . Though ML was bent on protecting her all the way and due to valid reason but i felt it still did not make her look distressed or weak. Their chemistry is awesome on the screen. I am going to watch more of Lee Joon Gi drama, i really can't believe i kept putting this drama on hold becoz of him Lol!Was this review helpful to you?

FL is through and through a tough one. I really liked that about the story. One who does not shy away from loving and hating. Goes all in. ML here is kind and does not show that tough image though he speaks less words and speaks more through his gaze, who has unconditional love for FL. Enjoyed their screen time! I came here after watching AMA, yes Xu Kai role is different, he is thoughtful and has foresight, this was still entertaining to see their love grows from one sided to hate to mutual admiration. Both are bad ass leads and yet considerate. Was this review helpful to you?
Under rated
Loved it. If you like supernatural stories like Goblin you will like this. I liked this drama as much as i liked Goblin. Story is predictable and takes you through twist and turns with meaningful conversation and dialogues. Script was good and actors delivered it bang on. I also liked the side characters and SML and SFL story and their banter.This is the drama where i liked Seo in Guk and his acting. He knows what he is doing. Park Bo young i liked her in Strong woman Do Bong Soon and she caries the same sassiness here. I enjoyed watching her acting and her strong FL role.

Something different
Finally finished watching the best pie i was saving for a long time. It didn't let me down. It's a good combination of thriller, romance and suspense. Lee Jong Suk, well what can i say, he is doing his mandatory military training and i was hoping to lasts long till he gets back and not watch this one but then i finally gave up.Its a good story line, keeps you on your seat all the time and you don't know what to expect next. As much as loved the series i was little disappointed with FL role.... man what agony she was in all time. She had most to loose and i felt sorry for her through out the series, usually i get really annoyed with FL crying throughout the series but this one seemed like she didn't have the choice , she was not the cry baby but her circumstances were so tough. I would really like to watch more of the series where they don't make FL cry so much. Park Soo Bong this is one character that annoyed the hack out of me, i felt his role was to annoy. :) Another character i found charming is Seo Do Yoon. He payed his role well except towards the end i was not satisfied when he gets kidnapped and he is suppose to protect the CEO and he spills the beans. For the main lead I liked the chemistry between the two and has some sweet moments, like how our ML wanted to be a real human and understood all emotions and respected them with that he protected FL and was very loyal to her, also FL strength shows when she wants to do good for everyone, makes so many scarifies, that part kind of gets annoying from time to time...... if i write more i will give away...so i will just stop and ask whoever is reading this just go and watch.

Definitely watchable
Before i started this show i have been avoiding to watch it becoz of some -ve comments. I am glad i watched it. It was a new plot and after watching Hyena i have started liking Law dramas. It was not as good as Hyena for me but it was still good. If you are putting off just like me, go watch it. Nicely executed and definitely awaiting season 2. It was nice seeing Kang Tae Oh as main lead and i appreciated the acting of Kang Ki Young. It was difficult role to perform and have to shout out loud for Park Eun Bin.What i didn't like - It was getting little draggy towards the end.

Slow burn
I am a Lee Jun Ho fan so obviously i am going to watch it. Story is based on the traumatic experience of ML and FL. This is very much a slow burn and the pacing is very slow but good plot with good acting cast. All the actors did wonderful job in this drama. All the characters had such strong and powerful presence that it didn't feel like they are supporting cast except of course less screen time.Character development for ML from violent to taking care of himself has been very slow but it happens. FL is strong with good head on those shoulders. Story is very emotional so get ready with tissue box and it is heart breaking at the same time. Just hang in there it is a good one. As usual i binged watched it but i hardly fast forwarded any scenes. I loved the value of relationship for ML and how human values are important no matter what.
It kind of instill a good faith in new though you are going to experience range of emotions while watching this show but at the end of it's still worth it.

One of the best wuxia/period C-drama of the year.
I am going to keep this review short and sweet. Loved loved and loved the drama. I am big Xu Kai fan and this will be my fav Xu Kai drama now. I loved the FL too in this drama strong and sassy. All the other main and supporting characters were very well portrayed. This drama is just awesome, i don't know why i kept postponing to watch this may be because of what it said in the description. This drama was fast pace for most of the time except in between it became slow paced for some 10-15 episodes when Haouchi comes into picture. I watched it full in its entirety without fast forwarding and it has 49 episodes. Of course i binged it. Just go and watch it. I wish they would have given a little more insight at the end of in their lives trying to keep the spoiler away as much as possible so go and watch it.Was this review helpful to you?
Easy watch when you want to feel good
Main leads both are fantastic. Allen Ren is trying different roles and his acting is very nature. He is not dashing but a cute type. Bai Lu is one of my favorite, she got good acting. She does not over do or under do and this role fits her the best. I liked the drama where there were no unnecessary misunderstanding or villainous monstrous enemies. I liked how main leads understood each other. It was not a sizzling chemistry but not too bad also. Every thing about this drama is what it should be. I haven't watched one and only becoz of the sad ending but you don't need to watch one and only to watch this. This story was able to carry itself. Also i liked that the FL had a good dressing style unlike other dramas. All and all when you are feeling down go watch it, its easy to watch and predictable.Was this review helpful to you?
Refreshing!!
I started watching this because i couldn't find anything but once i started i didn't wanna stop. It is a good drama. Evan lin is a surprise for sure. He's got some acting chops and Wang Peng is good. Acting was not forced. Plot is kind of new as ML is shown as blind guy. I liked conversation between them. ML does not take any offense when female lead states obvious from time to time about his blindness, their relationship was open in sense FL didn't walk on eggshells regarding his condition. Sometimes she left things messy which harms the ML but he takes it into the stride. Of course the story is not very relatable but it is a very good watch.Was this review helpful to you?
Surprisingly a good drama
I like to watch anything related to martial arts, if you are like me this drama is for you. Our ML and FL are really cute together. This story is modern coming of age but setting is oriental. One of the highlight was the dressing of FL - it was rea fashionably decent and she rocked it. Most C-drama tend to show female with shabby dressing sense, where pants are more like pajamas. Thankfully this one was an exception. You can see this was a high budget drama with lots of eye candy actors. ML is shown perfect 10 on 10. Story is predictable but it is still entertaining, moments between lead couples are sweet specially when they are bickering with each other. Our FL is not a helpless damsel in distress though ML is her knight in shining amour which is both refreshing. She is confident, keeps low profile, kind at heart and talented. For ML you can see he falls for her in the very beginning when the first time he smiles because she is threatening him to beat him up. LOL It was quite funny. FL may come across annoying in the beginning but she is consistent and she will grow on you. I found the drawback as it was not executed well, otherwise this would have made a big hit.Was this review helpful to you?
Need patience to watch this show
I started this show with not too much expectation but i was surprised. One thing was this was my first show where i could see airport operations. i am not sure i have ever seen people giving so much tough time at the security gate and i am a frequent flyer but i guess every country is different or may be it was just all made up. I liked the story and dedication of the leads towards each other. there are many nice lines and scenes i liked . It resonated a bit with everyday life of a human beings. Everyone has their own demons to fight and it was portrayed nicely in the drama. It is easy to tell someone to get over your fears but no one is without fears to them, their issue is the biggest. I was getting little worked up when both leads are keeping their secret to have the perfect memory of each other and then finally they went ahead and showed the side which can create lots of differences. I like all the characters in the drama very relatable and dialogues between the characters also made sense from time to time. When i was watching this i felt i have to visit this one more time as this is kind of slice of life type of story to me. Struggles showed here were real and i really liked that part. It has my positive vote.Was this review helpful to you?
Flying under the radar!
This drama is definitely flying under the radar. Loved the acting and chemistry of the both the ML. Story was so so but it was played really well, character development as the story progresses can be seen for all characters. The understanding between the leads and the development between their relationship was slow and steady. I felt could have been more sweet and intimate moments. That is where i thought it was bit lacking. Otherwise i think i am going to watch this again and again. Jung Hae In has a soothing personality someone who does not have to try to smile face which is always smiling. Chae Soo Bin i liked her too, i have watched her where stars Land and i think she acts well. Its a good watch have patience.Was this review helpful to you?

Funny
Strong ML and FL along with strong side funny side characters. It does not happen often where i get a good laugh but this drama has everything, strong chemistry, predictable story, no damsel in distress FL and Handsome ML with mysterious capabilities, comic scenes, good supporting characters. I kept watching this without break so i can say i had fun watching this series and though its predictable but it has its own individuality to the story. Acting was good and i liked badass FL with i don't give a damn attitude but at the same time, she is practical, logical and a loyal. ML is shown as lacking humanity but he only cares about our FL and those parts are super funny.Was this review helpful to you?
Watch it don't miss this
I feel this is underrated. This is a saga of another strong female with a physically weak male, and i have seen stories like this becomes boring after sometime. This story was able to keep my interest till the end and i binged watched. Though the male is physically weak but mentally very strong. FL and ML are devoted to each other with unconditional love. They don't demand anything from each other. They had good chemistry on the screen and their presence radiated good relationship from very start. I really liked when logical Ah Fei thinks why do i believe whatever he says without any question? may be it is his handsome face, even before that she started trusting him and protecting him. Our ML never took offence to it or showed his ego getting hurt instead he will feel so proud and tickled. Love the series. All characters were pretty good and even the second leads have a cute story. Amazing marshal art scenes. The only this which annoyed me is Disha getting away all the time and not dying or getting killed. I found that bit ridiculous. Well written story, beautiful OST, great acting and actors, amazing cinematography. All in all a must watch.Was this review helpful to you?
