Before I start, I just want to say that I am usually a person who is the first to criticize any series which are popular among the majority. In addition, I am the person who has never experienced that feeling you are just going to cry due to some movements or sounds coming from the TV series/movies which want to cause emotions to you. But this k-drama... DAMN... Up to now, I considered Game of thrones (seasons 2-5) and Mr. Sunshine objectively as the biggest masterpiece when it comes to series, but I guess, this k-drama totally overtook this position.

Firstly, all hail to the actors. I think, I have never been so hooked up into literally ALL of the characters. Each one of them (leads, seconds and supports) did an excellent job. I always take care of not doing any sounds when everyone around me sleeps and I am watching dramas, but they made me laugh as hell even at 2AM, made me cry (it is true that only for a few seconds, but I have not cried for 15 years) multiple times and made me totally fangirling over them.
Secondly, the story was really well written. Not even a single scene was a waste of time (what, in my opinion occurs quite often in other series), the story let you nervous almost whole the time and you never know what will happen next. The only one thing which was not perfect was the totally last scene (about the last one or two minutes). I think, the end without that scene would be much more satisfying in my opinion.
Lastly, I have never really been into re-watching any series (expect a few favourite moments), but I am definitely for watching this k-drama one day again.

And here, there is some final sum of the points.
Actors: 20 Hyun Bins from 10
Story: 9.99999999 flying tractors from 10 (sorry last scene)
Music: 10 downloaded albums from internet cafés from 10
Would I go through this emotional hell again? Definitely YES!
Overall score: 85648356187451 bugs from 100

First time, when my friend suggested me this movie, I was just like "nyah okay I will think about it... but I will not watch it". But one day when I went travel with her,  she just opened the laptop and told me "watch". It was the best thing she could have done and this way I am saying big "thank you" to her <3

As you could see from previous reviews it's movie for adults, but I will be honest, a lot of today's teenagers saw much worse things, so just take care where are you watching and if someone is not secretly looking what are you doing :P and majority of those scenes are at the beginning of the movie, so don't worry XD.

Okay, but to the movie.
Honestly I hate rom-coms because of their boring story (this was the reason why I did not want to watch this) but this one was so realistic and really well made (I will call this movie an exception which is confirming the rule). Probably the best one rom-com I have ever seen (and I will ever see). Also I have never seen in Asian dramas, that people in movies/dramas are talking about topics like here (but let's be honest, (at least me) we know what kind of people Asians are in real life if you know them really close ;) )... this surprised me a little but I did not mind it at all.
Even though I have never heard about any of those actors (expect one but about that later) (I know, my bad), I loved them here. You can to see, that each actor (also supporting roles) are doing their best.
When it comes to music, after I saw 3/4 of the movie I wanted to rate the music  0/10 (because I did not even recognised any music), but then it came .... SHIN HAE CHUL at his best was there <3 (for those who do not know: probably the most famous Korean hard rock / metal singer... No idea why he is not written in the cast ... If I had known that he is there I'd have watched this immediately just because if him :D And the song from the main character at the end almost killed me :D ... anyway, I give to music 10/10, because Shin Hae Chul :D

So I said nothing  wrong. Why is the overall rating 9/10?
- I did not like the ending (I don't mind those kind of endings but even that I didn't like it)
(7/10 as rematch value is really high for me because I have no time for rewatch, but I guess I'll try to watch this again :D)

Anyway if you think about watching this, please give it a try ;)

To be honest if had seen only 60/62 episodes I would give this drama 9/10. But I watched whole drama so the rating is as you can see.

I have never thought I would be able to watch 62 episodes drama (even 20 episodes are too much to me) but I did it and I do not regret it at all. And I would not mind if this drama had 120 episodes... I would watch it anyway <3

At first, I would recommend this drama only in case you love fantasy. If you are not sure, then give it a try, but please have a patience and do not judge this drama on its first episodes, since later the storyline will get much better (here the first part of the storyline is like the beginning of Game of Thrones ... just introduction to the fantasy world). Also some parts of the story reminds Game of Thrones, so if you like GoT, you might like this too ;).

So what I liked here
- Strong female characters (usually I do not like female characters in Asian dramas but not here) you will fall in love with them. And 3/5 of my most favourite female characters are from this drama (It is true, that I did not watch enough dramas to say this, but I am saying this also after that I saw a lot of western series and films)
- Great male characters (the only one I did not like is Ka Suo)
- Romance (to be honest I am not really into romantic scenes ... yes, I am weird, but here I loved them <3 ) and bromance :)
- It had literally everything (love, fight, war...)
- Great costumes and sceneries
- Music (I downloaded whole OST album) - especially here a great job had been done
- It is fantasy! (and I love fantasy)

But it had some bad points
- Some parts of the story have been too fast (in some episodes it would be better to divide 1 episode into 3 episodes) - the storyline will be more clear
- Sometimes it was a visual crap (but if is not that bad) - I did not mind this one :D
- Some dialogues have been too naive and childish (this one made me angry a lot of times)... Later I realised, that the book was written by a 19 yo person, but even though, the dialogues in the drama could be written much better. (this was the reason why I wanted to give 9,5/10 overall rating... another 0,5 points was because of 1 character :( ... But it is a spoiler, so I will not say anything :)
- The main male character was boring af :(
- The ending!!!! ... I was about to flipping tables and I was screaming on my laptop and I wanted to kill the writer (but that is also the way how to end the drama)

Even though this drama had horrible ending, I still love this drama and there are more positives than negatives :) I am not really into rewatching dramas, but I would love to rewatch some episodes.
