At the first few episodes... It will seem like a good drama.. and you will be very angry at people and you'll want to keep watching more.. yes I did that. The only reason I finished this drama is that I was just hoping the drama would get better or curious on how many episodes it would be (didn't find out about the 122 episodes until near the end of the run). I give the story at 6 because the first part of the drama was pretty good and attracted my attention up until the middle and then it just kind of went all over the place.... There wasn't very much "revenge" going on.. 8 for the Acting because the acting is very good in my opinion attracted me and many others who watched ALL 122 episodes of this... :) 5 for the music because.. there wasn't much to the music except some thriller music here and there and EVERY single episode you would hear the same opera song from 1-122 and even in the endings the music doesn't change much, there isn't much celebrity collaboration on the OST. REWATCH um... maybe for certain parts of the show.. just to reminisce the good moments of the show but for the whole thing I recommend you not watch it again start to finish you'll know why :) and Overall I give it 6 for fairness and basically that's for you to decide hopefully you'll mention my name in your reviews

Annyeong!!

There's not a lot that you can say about this drama, and there aren't many bad things either or even bad things at all!

1. It doesn't take up most of your time
2. It has a solid enough plot even at 4 episodes
3. The casting is a nice selection
4. The story is nothing heavy and easy to keep up with
5. This drama motivates me to cut my hair... I've never really liked cutting my hair
it kind of shows the importance of cutting hair but the fun side of it also!
6. Acting was very good and real the characters were very realistic.
7. I felt like I was watching a 16 episode drama... like... what I mean is by the end of the drama you feel like you just finished a full length drama but really IT WAS ONLY 4 EPISODES which is really mind blowing!
8. The quality kind of gives me that.... classic kdrama feel and I'm not saying kdrama in general I mean like early 2000's feel and that feeling is GOOD

If you're a college/university student that doesn't really have the time to watch a full on drama at the moment I think this one is the right one to watch even if you're busy!

I am a new fan of Yoon So Hee loved her in Let's Eat and I loved her in here... made me nearly cry a couple times. I liked that the show was mostly done by (70% of the time) the younger casts, the story has and had really good potential both So Hee and Won Geon were a good-looking pair and acted REALLY well I can say that they were casted well. Also, Hyoyoung made me hate her character so much so I guess she makes a good villain!

As for the adults I am not really a big fan of Nam Goong Min but I gave him and Lee So Yeon a chance, So Yeon is a pretty looking woman, so she was bearable for me. However, I found Nam Goong Min, a bit short compared to his younger actor. In the past he seemed to be pretty tall looking and then 12 years came and made him pretty short compared to his friends who seemed to have grown quite well, additionally, I think his face wasn't too fit for the role, to be honest. I feel like the adult version and young version didn't quite look like each other it's just my opinion! He felt miscast to me.

Then, their acting was just okay to me as for everyone around them they were fine.. Music was good placed in the right places knowing the show was cut short made me immediately turned off and come to the conclusion of a rushed ending due to the cut. However, I ended up watching it til the end.

I have never seen that happen to a 50 episode drama before but 50 would've been too long to support the story anyway so I didn't mind much, just the rushed ending was a problem. (I've come to learn to hate those kind of endings) the planning for the number of episodes could've been planned better so they wouldn't have to result in cutting episodes to start with.

Things I would've changed
The name of the show (had nothing to do with soybean soup or wild chives!
Made this show a 20 episode drama in the beginning instead of 50 (Start small and extend if needed)
Take out the adult versions! make the drama a teen drama instead on teen pregnancy <- (not a spoiler, it was a part of the synopsis!)
