OMG FREAKING AWESOME!!!

So this drama had it all. I was left guessing the whole time. I never knew what was coming except once & that was just a given. There wasn't anything bad about this drama. I loved the whole thing. The acting was amazing, the story was awesome, & I would totally start rewatching this in a heartbeat. I don't think that this drama could disappoint any1. The only issue was that I just couldn't stand the old bad guys facial expressions, but ur supposed to hate the bad guy. Anyway awesome job writers. This is the best time travel drama I have ever watched b/c it is simple and complex at the same time. It makes u think, but u also have to accept things as they are. I enjoyed watching this drama & I suggest that every1 give it a try. I promise it will draw u in on the 1st episode. ENJOY!

OMG total DRAMATHON! Not sure y but I had to complete this drama all at once. I know I am giving it just good scores, but I thought it could have been shorter w/o a lot of b/s filler. I totally understand that they had to do a lot of character development, but y did I have to listen to the grandmother yell & get on my nerves whenever she opened her mouth for like 5 episodes? Couldn't have done the drama w/o her part, but did she rly have to be that loud & ignorant? They made her character out to be smart & dignified from her position as head of her family. Then she did the most annoying things & was tactless w/ every1 she came in contact w/ basically. Rly drove me crazy.

The 4 main characters were awesome. I loved each one and understood where they were coming from based on the past experiences we learn about in the drama. These characters were developed very well and they each kept me interested in the progression of the story. I thought each actor brought out the emotions of each character well. I thought the story was very well written & that the pace was alright except for the filler that was used to make the drama longer. The end was ok, but I knew what was going on the whole time. No guess work there.

Oh well! I liked the drama & feel that others will as well. ENJOY!

This was a rly good story. I enjoyed the chemistry b/t the 2 leads. I loved how the story b/t the leads drew me into their lives. I loved how Dal Ja was so innocent at her age. Most ppl @ that age r so jaded & resentful that it is hard to see what is positive in life for them. Just like her friend Wee Seon Joo. I personally believe that we should consider ourselves w/e age we feel we r despite how many yrs we have been alive. I rly think that when u watch this drama you will connect w/ it in some way b/c so many things happen that r real. Enjoy!

Ok so like read my episode reviews that I posted to know exactly y I love this drama. I have to say this drama was like crazy awesome. I loved the acting, the story, the cast, & the ending. Most ppl may have a problem w/ the ending but I thought it was exactly where the story needed to end.

Like my Momma always said, "u can't have ur cake & ice cream too." It means that u don't always get what u want & this drama is a prime example.

Drama is like reading a book & not all stories end happy! The more realistic the ending the better I think the drama is. Loved this 1 & will put it in my top 10.

I rly loved this story. I love how the actors alluded to themselves while playing their parts. I laughed so often while watching this drama. Ella always plays a character that acts like she is very naive, & innocent, but always comes out w/ some kind of profound meaning behind her behavior. I love that about her acting. Ppl that watch this drama will leave w/ a good feeling in their heart. Enjoy!

This drama was full of twists and turns. The concept of the parents or grandparents picking their kids/grand-kids life partners is so hard for me to take in. All these dramas w/ the blind dates being set up for ppl to get to know each other for the intent of marriage is like taking away the persons right to love who they want. But it can work out if the person writing the script puts that into the story!



The idea that 1% of anything is worth fighting for just made the drama for me. It totally lets those of us that don't think that way understand the concept of y all these girls in these drama's r so persistent. I don't know any1 who would stay w/ some1 even though they knew they would not get anything in return. I guess the idea that there is always some1 else out there is more common in the US (which is probably y the divorce rate is so high).



Anyway, I loved this and will watch it again. I recommend that every1 give this 1 a try.

Yeah I totally loved this drama. I don't think I will ever be able to get over how powerful this drama was and how emotional this drama made me. The only character that I thought was lacking was Mok Dan. I thought her character was just a link b/t the past and the present for Kang To. She was also a link b/t Bridal Mask & the freedom fighters. The romance part didn't rly affect the story much except w/ Shunji, & all that emotion was a given. Overall I thought this was 1 of the best drama's this season & will be placed on my top 10.

Even though the story line of this drama is very common to c in Kdrama it was still rly good. I enjoyed it mostly b/c of the actors/actresses. The leads were perfect. I enjoyed the chemistry that flowed between not just the main couple but the love triangle/secondary couple. There were so many back stories that kept popping up that made this drama more interesting than just the main story line. The drama made me laugh, cry (not rly, but figuratively), and made me want to watch it again. The last episode was the best, b/c I just love babies. I think if u watch this drama it will make u feel many different things & u will want to watch it till the end. I will prolly watch this drama again b/c I rly loved the acting & it made me laugh A LOT! Check it out 4 urself. Enjoy!~)

I know I am giving this an overall of 8, but to me that is rly rly good. I would have given it a higher score & I might edit my rating if later I have the urge to watch it again and again. Like for some reason I have the urge to watch A Gentleman's Dignity again. Can't explain y, but I rly want to watch that drama again. Now if Secret Love can make me feel like that at some point, then I say my overall rating could bump up a spot to 9.

OK! So Y was this drama so good. I think that it brought out an ugly truth about life & how hard it can be for anyone. No matter if u have all the money in the world or if u r dirt poor. It made no difference in this drama. Every1 had huge scars. Even the minor players had some bad stuff in their closet.

When they totally dropped that BOMB in epi 15 I was all like..."OMG r we about to have an extension..." But I didn't figure that would happen this close to the end of the drama. Not like they r going to spring something like that this late in the game.

The ending was alright! The last kiss scene killed me. They made it seem like they knew each other well off screen....if u know what I mean (wink, wink, hint, hint). Good job actors. & Good job writers for keeping me totally interested. I thought the last epi was a little hurried, but they finished it up nicely & covered all their bases.

Rly good drama! I enjoyed every emotional roller coaster ride minute of it.

OK So this drama got a 10 b/c of the ending. EPIC ending. I actually heard so much from Unnie about this drama being a rly bad drama, but I'm not so sure we were watching the same drama. I thought it was pretty good. Of course there r some issues, but that comes w/ the fact that it was done in 2004. Other than the crappy set & the annoying supporting actors (i.e. Soo Jung's brother, money stealing ex-boss, & best friend) I liked it.

No, this drama will never be 1 of my all time faves, but I enjoyed watching it. I enjoyed the fact that these actors (that I love) So Ji Sub, Ha Ji Won, & Jo In Sung confirmed that they are great actors & not just "Eye Candy." The ending was the best ever. Whoever came up w/ that ending was a genius, b/c it gave an ending to all sides of the conflict.

I was slightly upset that Ha Ji Won had to play a cry-baby, indecisive character, b/c to me she is just much stronger than they let her be in this drama.

So Ji Sub blew me away. I mean who do u know that can be as silent as he is in this drama, but still show so much emotion that u know what he is feeling the whole time? NO1! He is an amazing actor & I will forever watch anything & everything he is ever in (if I can find it subbed).

Jo In Sung is like amazing. I wanted to cry & go crazy w/ him through this whole drama. I felt bad for him the whole time b/c of his family life. Which kinda reminded me of Lee Je Hoon's character in Fashion King. I actually wanted him to get the girl even though he was a giant Scott (South Park Reference).

Overall I liked the drama & think that others should give it a try. It isn't as much torture as I anticipated, except that is is older & it reminds me of the 80's. ENJOY!

Wow I don't think there was an episode that I watch were I wasn't pissed. The last episode was the best of them all. I don't rly know what to say about it w/o telling every1 what happened & y I was mad the whole time. I am going to try to explain.

The character Da Hae, even though I know she didn't mean for everything that happened to happen, was just evil. I know she felt remorse for certain things (u will only understand if u watch), but she still continued to make choices that were selfish & evil (the only word I can think of to describe it).

The character Ha Ryu was just too sweet. I know he did the whole revenge thing, but that wasn't his motive. It was more along the lines of making ppl pay for what they did. If u ask me all his actions were totally justified, but I still think that he was too sweet for his own good.

The other characters were awesome. Each character was necessary and the actors that played them did such a good job.

I have to say that this drama kinda blew me away, but b/c I had such an angry feeling most of the time I had to give it lower scores. I don't feel that anger is a good way to feel entertained. But b/c I was so invested in each character I had to continue to watch till the end. I am glad I did b/c the ending left me w/ happy & sorrowful feelings. It was appropriate for the drama. Don't go into this drama thinking that you're going to come out all sunshine & roses, b/c that is so far from this drama. I suggest only those that can handle a serious melodrama should watch this, b/c it is like no joke.

This was a good movie. The story was well told. Some of the acting was a little cheesy but over all it was good. I think the story was a little hurried. It would have been nicer if it has lasted a little longer. I liked that it wasn't just about 1 type of dance. It is nice to see all types of dancing being recognized. I enjoyed the way they expressed how emotional dance can be & that the expression of that emotion is more important than the technique being flawless. Rly enjoyed it.

I absolutely love this story & now I love this version of it more than Playful Kiss. I believe this had more depth to it in character development. Even though Xiang Qin was really dorky at times her dork-ness became cute after a while. I love the 2nd season more than the 1st b/c I got to see into Zhi Shu's character more. I understood his character the whole time b/c emotions r hard to deal w/ especially when u don't know what ur feeling. I love this b/c I help others deal w/ emotions they don't understand everyday. Even though the methods r different (we r not allowed to fight w/ our cts.) the rxns r fun to watch.



This is 1 of the bestest dramas ever and I will watch it over & over & over. I hope others get as much from this as I did.

OOOOO! What a great psychological thriller! I rly enjoyed figuring out the back story & deciding who was responsible for the events that took place. I don't want to give away anything that happened in the movie. So, I will just say that this was a very good movie & kept me on edge the whole time. I hope that you enjoy watching as much as I did.
