I started this show for Kim Bum and honestly I didn't expect to get sucked in like like I did, but the brotherly love between the 2 main characters is so gripping and severe that you just cant help but keep watching. I loved the concept of the story.I love that it was like these two families that were destined to be enemies, but at the same time, destined to be family. I loved Dongchul & I quite liked the brotherly dynamic that the adult actors had and I LOVED the romance. I thought that the chemistry between Grace and Dongchul was out of this world. It was just so earnest and fierce and forbidden. Even when they were happy there was just this hint of sorrow behind everything that they did. I think it was the writers just kind of letting us know that they're ending would be tragic. I loved side Oppa & Jiana and their story line. Especially how it started; very intense and crazy! At first I was like; "Oh, I'll just watch these 5 episodes and then I was like I'll just watch 5 more and that just keeps going lol. When the switch of the babies is finally found out about it's bizarre and everything just turns to chaos .It's horrible to watch because you really feel the pain of the characters.You really are just like; Can we just pretend like none of this ever happened? But at the same time, you empathize with the characters because you know they can't do that. It's really hard to watch. When Don Wook turns to the dark side, you just hate him! You feel for him at first and then you just hate his guts and and then when Dong Chul dies for him, it makes so much sense and that makes you even more irrate. Because of course, Dong Chul would die for him! He's done everything at that point but die for his brother.So of course, he would.It's just so frustrating because you hate it and Don Wook and you just wish he died instead.

This one is really hard to rate because a part of me wants to rate it high, but then another part of me wants to rate it like a 4 because of the horrible ending, and it was a horrible ending. They tried to make it better because he was in heaven and the family was all together now but it wasn't better it just made you mad! I mean you followed this guy for 56 episodes just to watch him die in the end. On one hand it's poetic but on the other hand you're just peed off because you just wanted him to have a happy ending. Dong Chul is the best character in that entire show by far. At the end of the day it was enjoyable in the moment and it was very enticing. It was also heart breaking, devastating and dreadfully horrible. I mean, they cried more in the show than I think any one person has ever cried in their entire life and their entire lifespan. I don't care if they live to be a 100. There's no way they've cried as much as these characters did in this show. Very soapy, which is probably why a part of me loved it but not only was the ending just the worst death scene ever and just incredibly traumatic to watch but there were some other things that I feel could have been better. Like I wish we had gotten more love on Jiana's part, especially there at the end. You hated Shien through the whole thing and honestly he should have died in episode six. When Dong Chul is on the bridge and has a pipe in his hand he should have killed him with it for sure! That being said I felt the story was such a beautiful message because it was a story of revenge, but it was also the story of like realizing that at the end of the day is revenge really worth it? So it was very profound in that sense. It really just came down to forgiveness and brotherly/family love which are beautiful uniting factors of the human heart. So it came together really nicely while also just stabbing you in the heart a thousand times until you died and cried. I'm so glad I knew of the ending beforehand because if I hadn't known I would have killed someone! I would have been inconsolable so I'm glad that I knew how it ended. I kept having to like remind myself. It was one of the ones I didn't expect to get into I never expected to sit down and watch it all the way through. Do I regret it? No. Would I recommend it? No. I would never make someone go through all that. But the acting was A+ and the story was very well written. I just wish we'd gotten a happy ending after all of that heartache.It sucked that we didn't, it just sucked. I have found a new Oppa though as I now love Song Sang and want to see all his other shows.
