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!

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.

Ok so the 1st movie was much better than this 1, but it was still funny. I hope others enjoy this story b/c it is worth watching. Jong-man was kinda a dork & I don't know what kind of ppl box in Korea but he was like a super light weight. How did he even lift the boxing gloves up w/ those skinny ass arms. I could have broke him in half like a tooth pick he was so scrawny. Neways! I liked the story & Junko was cutness herself. The music was not bad, but yet again I never notice it unless it sux. I thought this was good enough for a 1st watch, but I prolly won't watch it again netime soon. There really isn't nething about it that really stood out to me, except all the dirty language & innuendos. But I can get that just from watching regular TV here in the US. Nothing new, just have not really seen it in many drama's or films made in Korea.

This movie was so damn funny. I busted a gut at the end when she kicked the guy in the nuts. I swear I can't stop laughing my side hurts. I am so going to watch the 2nd movie of this and I will be watching this one again. I think I may have to change my fave list and add this one, b/c it made me laugh like so hard, my side split open. I hope u enjoy it!

This was a cute drama. I loved the story b/c it is about finding ur own path in life. There was little romance but that did not make the drama any less romantic. The ideals presented were very different from most dramas. The girl learning to be independent even when she knows that she needs help. The real life value of "begging does not always answer the problems" did not deminish the value of respect and pride that is being taken into consideration in those moments.



I really enjoyed this drama and will watch it again espcially b/c there were some really funny parts to it. The Grandpa was the bestest. I hope all that watch it enjoy it as much as I did.

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.

Beautiful story told by 3 of my fave actors. Thank you again for a beautiful experience. Love the acting & watching the behind the scenes stuff made things even funnier b/c it makes u relize how normal every1 really is. I really enjoyed this drama and I know others that watch will too.



The only thing that I had probs w/ was the whole medical part at the end. I worked in the medical field for 6 yrs. If he had probs w/ his liver he would have had jaundice from lack of liver function. Also, if he and his bro were going to be in surgery then they would have been in a clean room for those 3 days b-4 they had the surgery. Mostly to protect his bro b/c of his current heart condition. Ok so fantacy does not always touch reality. But, they could have at least made it a little more realistic.



Everything else was amazing. I love how they allude to how his illnes is the reason for him being pissy (Mel for bad-tude) all the time.

Of course I love the story b/c I have made it a point to watch all versions of this story. Cronologically this one is very different. The history of the characters is not the same as in the other versions. The acting (IMAO) is much better than the Japanese version, even though it is still kinda weak. The dorky laughing is what killed most of this for me. I was never a giggler and hate it when girls do that to act cute. It makes me sick. Watching this drama was almost like watching a Soap Opera here in America (really bad acting) only w/o the continuous relationship changes. I really hated the mother in this one. She was like pure evil in human form. How can a mother lie to her child and not feel guilt. I have an 11 yr old and there is nothing that she could ever do that would make me lie to her like that. I just don't understand her characters pov. She wants what is best for her son yet she does everything she can to hurt him b/c it is not what she wants him to do. As a parent u have to let ur children learn from their own mistakes, not force them to do as u want them to. That is not how they learn or grow. The fact that the father let her do these things make me really mad b/c he should have done something to stop his wife from being such a biatch. I mean really dude grow a pair and deal w/ ur psycho of a wife.



There is obviously a 2nd season to this, and I really want to finish out the story, but I may wait a while b/c this part took so long to get through. I just really hate to leave things unfinished. Which is y I will prolly go and watch the 2nd season of the Japanese version; even though I really hated it. Damn my inablity to leave things unfinished. I will suffer through it just b/c I can't leave the story like it is in my head. Yeah I even make myself finish crappy books too. Stupid OCD.

This was a really good movie. I loved the 80's memories that jumped into my head while watching it. I really liked the music that was played (go Air Supply). Ok enough of the 80's memories. God the hair and the ugly clothes. Make me stop now the memories r killing me. AGGGGGG!



Ok for real! The movie was really good. I liked the story of brotherhood and loyality. Acting was great. I could not get over the mullet hair on Rhydian Vaughan. I will watch this again just for the 80's throw-back. I was born in the 80's so it's funny for me to watch and look at some of the stuff that was around back then. The one thing I think that they got wrong though is the earbuds that were used to listen to the music. I don't think they had those back then, but I could be wrong. I will have to look it up. Anyway watch it is u want. I think it is good enough for a 2nd run.

I really don't understand the review done by Arianya6 b/c I thought this was a really good drama that did not lag in story at all. I liked the pace of story and emotion all the way through. I really liked Chen Joe's (Xie Fu An) acting in this drama. I have watched other drama's that she has done and I think this role suited her best. I really liked how Lan Cheng Long (Yan Da Feng) displayed his characters emotions. He can really play evil but sweet. Neways this is on my FAVE list even though I can only post 4 here. I will be watching more Lan Cheng Long and Chiu Roy (Han Dong Jie) who r oh so smokin' hot. I really enjoyed this drama and will watch it again.

Story was really good. I like how the leads were willing to give up everything for their loved 1's. The end was classic but could have been a little more dramatic. I did not like that some of the acting was dry w/o emotion. I really think that some of these girls need to learn how to kiss b-4 they start acting b/c the kissing scenes r always (no only in this drama) very dry and boring. Unless it is some1 u don't like then u respond and kiss back. Don't just stand there like a piece of wood. It just shows that they don't have any emotion put into the character. I know that they r trying to act out innocence and a lack of experience, but come on! Any girl, even those lacking experience would respond and mac out w/ these hot ass guys. I prolly won't watch this again b/c it does not have a fave place in my heart. But I did like it and believe that others will enjoy it as well.

I went into this w/ no expectations and came out standing right in the middle of a line that I am not sure I want to cross either way. So let me list the pros and cons for this drama.

1. Good story. Lack of acting skills.

2. Smexy guys. Cute at times but annoying lead chick.

3. Amazing sub-storyies. Annoying as hell, whinny-ass acting.

4. Non-interfearing parents (on both sides). Um did I say lack of acting skills alrdy?

5. Funny ass music w/ certain situations. I know I said something about lack of acting skills, right?



As u can see the biggest turn off for me was the lack of acting skills especially the lead actress (Yu Reen). I loved the Aaron Yan's acting in this. It kinda reminded me of Kim Hyun Joong in Playful Kiss at times. I thought that Cynthia Wang did an amazing job in her role. I personally thought she would have made a better lead except that she has a more mature look. I really did not like the guy who played opposite her, b/c he acted like a baby half the time.



Neways good story and the music at times was the best b/c it added an element of funny that u can't get anywhere else. I enjoyed it but prolly won't watch it againg b/c I don't think I could sit through the bad acting again. But it wasn't a total waste of time b/c it made me laugh.

What a cute kids movie. The kids were just adorable. I recomend that others watch it w/ their kids b/c it has good content and an added fantasy element that works pretty well.

This movie was awesome.I loved the acting b/c it showed how fighing is more about psychology than skill or technique. It also shows that u don't have to fight to be considered strong. Watch this movie you won't be disappointed.

Two words "F-in Awesome" (edited language just for MDL). I loved this movie. That they use the actual movie script for the movie that is being made in the movie is like the ultimate irony (wow that was confusing). I really enjoyed watching this movie. I loved how every1 got so involved that what was supposed to be movie was confused w/ what was supposed to be reality. It was amazing and think every1 else will enjoy watching it.
