He's decent. Like I said before, he's still uneven and lacks nuance but he's definitely improved since his last projects and has his moments. As for me, I don't find him as horrible/terrible as some persons are trying to make him out to be...if it doesn't bother me, I take it as a good sign that he's doing a good job.

I'm a hopeless romantic and chose this drama mainly for its romantic theme (and SHS, I love her)...sure, it's not groundbreaking nor a masterpiece but it's entertaining and the chemistry between the leads works just fine imo. I'm not ashamed to say that I mainly tune in for the OTP and also sassy butler Jung...rest is just the usual stuff: cartoonish villains, annoying second leads and multitude of schemes to separate/harm our lovebirds.

Acting-wise, Shin Hye Sun is mindblowing and probably the best thing about this drama but Kim Myung Soo comes out as a pleasant surprise as well. Lee Dong Gun is good (despite his character being obnoxious) but he was way better in Q7D (I loved him as the despotic king that it almost made me root for him xD) and lastly Woo Hee Jin is fantastic as Butler Jung.

I mean we all have our preferences and actors we aren't particularly fond of...Kim Jae Wook is one of them but I wouldn't say he's bad either, he's just not my cup of tea acting-wise (I've known him since 'Coffee Prince'). No hard feelings.

*crossing fingers and toes* ;)

This...there are some actors/actresses I absolutely can't watch and he's one of them. Part is I'm still holding a grudge after Temperature of Love (his followers were quite harsh with Yang Se Jong *call me childish I don't care*) +his acting is dull/monotonous imo (have the same problem with Lee Sang Yoon, Joo Jin Moo and Lee Jin Wook)

May I give you an advice? You better watch and support me!xD
Here for sexy and talented Lee Joon Hyuk<3
I love the cast as well! Hope it will be a satisfying remake (didn't watch the original so I won't be able to compare)

Great leads but poor writing.... PBY and AHS were awfully cute together and really help made the watching experience more bearable. They sure were the best thing about this drama and deserved a better script.

Lord Hwang is still alive?!? I thought (rather hoped) he was dead after the slaughter that happened at his house... I hate his character, he's so despicable! Hope he will get his comeuppance in the end...His stuck-up attitude and snooty face annoy me to no end!

I know we're all responsible for our own decisions/choices and actions but Lord Hwang is partly to blame for Yi Hyun's downfall into darkness. He ruined him. Yi Hyun was dragged against his will into this mess because of a family's feud and had to commit atrocities just to survive...and when he's about to suppress the monster inside him and is trying to live a normal life, his past caught up with him and left him with no choice but to escape again...I really feel sorry for him. Yi Hyun is definitely the most compelling character of this series so far. Glad Yoon Shi Yoon got the chance to play such a multi-layered character and as usual he nails it!

This is the show I'm enjoying the most at the moment (this one and 'Nokdu Flower' are my favorites) I heard many people saying Shin Hye Sun is the only saving grace of this show and though I actually started it for her, I humbly disagree...Kim Myung Soo/L may not be the best actor out there but as Kim Dan, he's giving a decent performance and have great chemistry with SHS imo (I even dare say better than the one she shared with Yang Se Jong in 'Still 17' and mind you, Se Jong is my favorite actor!)

Despite my bias and the fact I was very against L's casting at first, he pleasantly surprised me and now I can definitely see the improvement that people were talking about...still I think his acting is uneven/lacks nuance: mostly during comedic scenes I'd say, he's a bit over-the-top (sometimes he looks like a child throwing a tantrum if you know what I mean :/) but during the more emotional/serious moments, he really shines (when he's watching from afar Yeon Seo dancing on the beach or also the time he listened to halmoni's story and poured out his conflicted feelings)

That's why I think it's unfair how people are giving him flak just because he's not on par with SHS...he's obviously not at her level acting-wise (nobody says so) but fares way better than I thought he would be. SHS is just stellar as Lee Yeon Seo and is probably giving her best performance to date.

PS: I can't believe I'm defending him....lol

At the end of the episode...

I really like it so far...no, even more than that,I'm hooked! Chemistry is on point, the OST is simply beautiful and matches perfectly the fairytale-like theme of this show<3 Shin Hye Sun nails it as usual and Kim Myung Soo as an angel is surprisingly lovable and fun to watch. Keep up the awesome work drama!

I'm interested in the premise+I love Shin Hye Sun <3 I'm wary with the writer though, 'Lucky Romance' wasn't exactly exceptional but I hope he will prove me wrong with this one *crossing fingers* Concerning L (Kim Myung Soo), I'm not particularly fond of his acting but I decided to give him another chance+ it's hard to resist such a cute/handsome lad *grin*

I wouldn't say it's bad but 'Abyss' is rather confusing/messy to say the least...Well, I must say I'm a tad disappointed...with such a cast and production, I expected so much better. Hope the show will pick up in the coming episodes. Love Bo Young and Ahn Hyo Seop <3 They deserve way better!

Agree...I finished it (it was okayish) but it sadly won't become a favorite like the first season ...not looking forward to a 3rd season tbh :/

I finally gave in and started watching it...verdict: I do enjoy some parts but I certainly don't find it as funny as the first season...Cast is great (minus Ahn So Hee who is a total miscast imo...her acting is obviously not on par with the rest and it's distracting) but this season unfortunately lacks that 'addictive/it' factor that made me fell in love with the first... Cha siblings are probably my fav characters this season.

Don't expect something groundbreaking because it is not...it's cute, lighthearted and full of fluff. Period. In a nutshell, it's very cheesy and can be borderline cringey for some at times (old school rom-com) but it works thanks to the sizzling chemistry between the leads. Take it as a fanservice gift for grim reaper/sunny shippers. All in all, it was an enjoyable watch and I'd rate it 7.5/10.

I'm still debating whether I should watch it or not tbh...main reason is I want to stay loyal to Kim Jung Hyun's Dong Gu because he was my absolute favorite character in season 1 (I loved his grouchiness and even found him way funnier than Lee Yi Kyung's character *unpopular opinion I know*) Kim Sun Ho is tempting me but I think I'll wait for more feedback before making a decision...

For information, The Last Empress' PD is the same one than 'Return'
Go Hyun Jung (the main actress) walked away after a dispute with him over her lack of screentime... she got a lot of flak for it at the time (some people even called her a Diva for being this disrespectful) Now that I think about it, it's rather fishy...

Don't get me wrong, I commend everyone's work but still I'm mad at the production...they clearly didn't properly discuss the matter with him before going ahead with an extension (he's the male lead for God's sake! Meaning they don't care about his character/presence) I won't lie I started watching it for him and wanted an happy ending for his character (that's why I first put the drama "on hold" because I felt his character got less screentime with each passing weeks) so now that he stepped down, I don't feel compelled to finish it *sorry* (but I still wish the best to all the actors)

Conflict with his schedule...glad I dropped this drama.

Okay, I've just completed it and it's a let down (not as much as 'Big' that left me angry and murderous for days after its completion but still I'm disappointed with MOTA....it had so much potential *sigh*)...I loved the first part of this drama: innovative concept and suspenseful but it all went down the drain in the second half...don't want to spoil it for everyone so I will just add/say that this drama is only watchable for Hyun Bin's fine performance (he's the heart and soul of this drama-the Pillar) and the stunning scenery (mostly Granada).
