So I will prolly be all hated on for my opinion about this drama, but OH WELL!

I loved the story. It was rly good. My only prob was a w/ certain character. I watched the movie of this story so I had certain expectations. And, it's not that they weren't filled to a certain degree. I just have issues w/ how the writers made Oh Young revert back into a depressive state that she was clearly out of, and made her seem weak when she had been strong for so long. I mean I totally get where she was coming from. Total trauma that started from childhood, but come on rly! Did they have to go that far w/ her character & then the total reversal again in the last episode. I'm like WHAT??? Serial pick a personality for the character & stick w/ it. At least they did that in the movie.

Now that I got that out of my system...

The rest of the drama was totally daebak. I loved the way they had Jin Sung do something he was totally against in the end. That part was much better than the movie. Oh Soo was the best character of them all w/ his own complex of abandonment. The flow of the drama was good. I didn't feel rushed at all. I was kinda upset about Moo Cheol's character, but I understand y they wrote his part that way. He was like a guardian angel that no1 knew was there. The whole combination of actors was great b/c they had such a great chemistry. The anger, brotherhood, love, romance, etc. was all there & I was never left w/ a feeling of uninterest. I was always anticipating the next episode. I was interested to see how each situation would play out; even though I alrdy knew the story b/c I watched the movie.

I suggest that MDL-er's give this drama a try. It is exciting to watch. ENJOY!

Awesome psychological thriller. The whole story is really messed up. What you think is real is not and then again it is real. I know that is confusing, but when u watch it u will understand. Even if u think u figured out who did it, r u really sure that is the right person. Enjoy the movie it is very interesting and will keep u guessing till the end.

This movie was different. I thought it was kinda slow @ 1st, but it picked up quick. It showed a different look on 1st loves. Just b/c u found ur 1st love does not mean that they r the person u r fated 2 be w/. I love that Gong Yoo can play a dorky type character that still gets the girl....LOL! He has this manliness about him that shines through even when he is playing the part of a chicken. Seo Ji Woo's character was a great compliment 2 Han Gi Joon. Where he was scared 2 face things she wasn't & where she was scared he wasn't. I was happy throughout the movie & I loved that the flashbacks had me guessing about Ji Woo's 1st love. I recommend this movie if ur looking for something 2 make u feel like; even though u missed love the 1st time u can always find it again & usually where u least expect it. Hope for a true love is what u get from this movie. I hope all who watch enjoy.

I loved this movie. It was amazing. The character progression was really good b/c there r so many elements that end up coming together. The love triangle was daring & lots of things were hard to understand in the beginning. B/c of the relationship b/t the 3 main characters it is hard to not be moved by this movie. There is a seceret that comes to light b/t the 3 leads, and it makes things even more difficult for every1 on some lvl. I really enjoyed watching this movie & suggest that others watch it as well. It will make u rethink love & the many ways it can be recieved.

This review may contain spoilers
!!!!!!!!!!This prolly count's as a spoiler, but I would just call it a warning!!!!!!!!!!!



OK very disappointed by the ending. It just like ended w/ way to much story left to tell. I loved it up to the end. The end was so abrupt and it literally sucked. I expected so MUCH more. I juat can't believe that such an awesome story ended like that. It had such potential. The last episode I watched b-4 it was subbed & I only understood like a quarter of it, but I knew that was the end & I just almost didn't go back and watch it the 2nd time subbed.

Now that my major disappointment has been shared I will tell u what I did like. I loved the combination of the You're Beautiful B & Hana Kimi type stories. I loved the leads. There was a rly good thing going on here. Go Eun Ah was amazing at her part. She did an excellent girl/boy reversal. Park Yoo Hwan he was amazing with his questioning of himself. "Y do I like a guy?" "How do I deal w/ this?" Loved it! Such a beautiful smile too. I rly hope that I see him in more drama's. Even though they were stuck w/ such a crappy ending. He did so well w/ his part.

I rly just couldn't stand the character played by Park Hyo Joo. I know there has to be that 1 person every1 hates. They had 2 of them in this drama. Ex-girlfriend & it's usually an evil mother thing, but no we got an overly sensitive, manipulating, "I'm only sry b/c I got caught" type person. I did not fell sry 4 her in the slightest. She deserved more karma.

The CEO, His story ended w/ absolutely nothing. The last u see of him is in his office on the phone. No1 finds out if the M2 Jr's got a spot. Nothing happened w/ the rival competition. OMG that just killed me, right there.

OK, I just don't think I could ever put myself through this ended again. So, I will not be watching this in the future. Watch it if u want to. U will fall in love w/ certain characters, but it just doesn't end well at all. The choice is up to you.

I don't understand hockey at all but u don't have to understand it to love this drama. I was really supprized at how much I love this drama b/c of the sport that is involved. The story was really well developed. I loved the spacing of how the relationships came together and the conflict b/t the love interests. I really appreciate how it was not just about the main couple but the supporting couples as well. I am putting this 1 on my fave list & recommend that others watch it. I love that Queen is basically hockey music to me now. I will not be able to watch another hockey drama or movie w/o thinking about Queen. I think this was actually the 1st Japanese drama that I have watched that at least one male character did not dress up as a chick. I am happy to see the serious side of Japanese drama even though I laughed alot while watching the story play out.



There was only one problem that I had and that was finding links to actually watch the drama. One place I found the whole drama was www.watch-drama.com. This may help those that decide to watch. Enjoy!

Iljimae kept me on my toes. I thought of the main character as a playboy but he turned out to very smart. He understood so much more than he let on. I wounder how many times some1 has to be hit in the head to get their memory back. I think that the King in the story had some kind of disorder that made him so paranoid. The Megalomaniac behavior he displayed was over shadowed by his paranoid state of mind. "They r all out to get me" leads to desperate behavior. Watch this drama u will not be disappointed.

Jiro Wang never lets me down. I love his acting b/c he can pull off any type of character. He has a funny side that is expressed so well in all his dramas. He has a serial (Mel for serious) side that makes u fall in love w/ him. The fact that he can throw both together makes him almost the perfect man for all dramas. I thought that Wang Xin Ling tried to make herself look more innocent than was necessary. She alrdy has a cute innocent look that she rly did not need to do too much more than that. I loved the story about this family. I have an older sister who was so much like the 4 older bro's. Actually she was prolly worse. She bounced a full soda bottle off a guys head for talking to me. So, I kinda know what the female lead went through. Pretending that u don't know what ur older sibling is doing b/c u know that they r doing it b/c they love u. I rly enjoyed watching this drama not only b/c the story was good but also b/c when I thought that they couldn't come up w/ another prob for the next epi they surprised me & drew me back into the story. It rly made me want to know what was going to come up next. I loved it. I suggest others watch it b/c it was rly good & kept me wanting more. Even the ending makes u want to keep watching.

I liked this drama. It had good acting even though the male lead was kinda a wimp. Letting a girl kick ur ass all the time is just sad. I liked that Miss Kim was a strong woman and took care of business. I really enjoyed that the story flowed well and that the characters were interesting especially when they interacted to develop relationships. Those of u that watch this will enjoy it.

Ming Dao is a good actor but I rly don't like the pouty bs that he pulled at the beginning of the drama. I am glad that by the end of the drama he was more adult like & changed to be more responsible. I could not stand the character Wang Si Ping played. I get so tired of attention seeking behavior that some girls show in these drama's. I get so tired of whiny, spoiled, brats that r always trying to get what they want through underhanded means. So selfish.

Newayz! The story was decent and the acting was ok. I rly did not pay attention to the music, but I nvr do unless it is amazing.

This was a good drama. It isn't an amazing drama that I will always remember, but I liked it enough to finish it.

I was excited about this drama b-4 it even was aired. I love historical stories and nething that has to do w/ science (medical, psychological, etc.) Wonderful story. I wish it could have been drawn out in more episodes b/c I personally think that the story could have developed more. It felt a little rushed b/c it was only 2 episodes. Despite that I really got into the characters and the story. I love how past and present times are mixed together in this story. I think others will enjoy this story and will watch it again when they only have time for a short drama.

So I was offline for like 6 months. Not able to watch ANY drama except for on my phone (who wants to do that??? Blah). As soon as I got caught up w/ all the drama's I was totally invested in from last season; I started watching this 1. I started it mainly b/c of So Ji Sub. My Unnie would likely be upset if I missed it. He is her FAVE actor...LOL! Plus I love a good romance. After I started watching; it took me 1 day to get completely caught up & then I had to wait a day for the last epi. I was totally excited. I thought this drama was excellent. I loved the characters, the actors, the music, the story, & well basically everything. If I had skipped this drama I think I would have missed out on a lot. I rly got into it & sat in a state of suspense the whole time I watched. I have to say that I am glad I marathoned it b/c I would have totally gone crazy waiting for the next wks epi's. So Ji Sub is a great actor. I don't think I have watched a drama or movie he has been in where he didn't get hurt or killed & brought back to life.

Anyway! I recommend this drama b/c it has comedy, horror, romance, & some of the best actors. I don't think any1 could rly be disappointed. ENJOY!~)

There were lots of things that I thought were ok about this drama & lots that got on my nerves. I didn't like how the story b/t the 2 leads was so quick. The fact that the girl that was uncertain about herself had so many guys trying to hook up w/ her was weird. & Y did she befriend ppl that tried to rape her? Yeah I said rape, b/c any1 who says "the more you struggle, the more excited I will be" to a girl is out to force himself on her. I had real issues with her making friends w/ the ppl that did this type of thing in the drama. I am just not so sure I was convinced that this drama was even ok. I liked the story but it should have had more to it besides the up & down romance & the fight b/t designers. It wasn't a complete waste of time, but I don't think I liked it as much as other dramas out there.

I love life after death stories, & this was a really good story about that issue. Do u want to move on to the next world or stay in this 1? Do u have a reason to stay? Those r questions that r answered in this movie. The dark essence of love & the need to always be w/ the 1 u love is a exceptionally well expressed theme in this movie. I loved the music. I will be looking it up to dl to my mp3. I will watch this movie again. Enjoy !~)

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!
