Amazing drama from beginning until the end. I always wanted to watch it because of Chae Soo Bin but I kept putting it off. Glad I finally went through with it because it was well beyond my expectations. The entire main cast was brilliant. The heroes and villains both played their roles well.

This is my first time seeing Yoon Kyun Sang. Would love to see his other dramas since he really won me over with his role as Gil Dong.

So many great things about this show. The leads are phenomenal. I've seen Seo Yi Ji in other dramas but her performance here is something else. I'm getting Jang Man Wol vibes from her.

I also want to take a moment to appreciate Joo Ri's beauty. I've seen her actress always playing a support role, so for her to finally get a main role even if it isn't the Main FL is a good step forward. I just hope she gets her own independent story and doesn't end up being just an extra love interest for Moon Kang Tae.

Entertaining movie but I feel like it's wasted potential since they killed off so many characters. Choi Woo Shik and long haired black girl with him were both interesting characters. Would love to see more of them in the sequel as allies but really?? You kill them off.

I'm also not a fan of the protagonist sort of having a villain like personality. I liked her in the first half but not so much in the second half because it didn't feel like watch a hero character who you can vote for. Hoping that changes in the sequel.

There should've also been more of a bond between the experimented kids.

Despite all my complaints still looking forward to the second movie. Kim Da Mi alone is enough for me to watch it.

For all the people complaining and watching this as a BL series, this isn't your show.
It does have LGBT characters who will definitely play a prominent role in this series. We have the ML leads brother and also Tae Wan who is a lead.

So far I'm enjoying the way this show is going and look forward to how it will go from here. I also find the friendship between the leads cute.
I am sure what he is doing is going to come back to bite him. I Just hope the show pulls that part off well.

And more exciting for us viewers :)

I thought I would be disappointed with the final episodes due to all the negative comments but I was rewarded with a satisfying conclusion.
The lead actor particularly stood out to me and his character was mature.

Not your typical romance due to the dark setting of the series.
However as the series goes on you can see that they care for each other and also all they got is each other.
To put it simply, as someone who is big on romance, I found their relationship satisfying.

I can't give off too much without spoiling but for me personally I found her more likable as the series went on.
While his life became more difficult after she came, she is also one of the only few people to actually care about him. And this becomes more obvious as the show goes on.

I really enjoyed this drama. So different than your usual K drama with it's dark themes and setting. The characters are all flawed which makes them more dimensional.
I really felt attached with the characters, particularly the two leads. Fell in love with their acting. While there were times I disliked them due to their actions, I couldn't help but root for them. It's quite rare for me to be this attached to characters and actually think about them after the dramas end. It felt as if I was watching real people.

Really hoping for a second season.

First saw her in a Piece of Mind. She was phenomenal in Extracurricular. Hoping she gets more Lead roles in the future.

I don't get the hate for the FL. I can't imagine the series without her. She was scheming Jisoo at first but when she decided in not taking his money it was pretty clear that she started to care for him.
His whole life was messed even before she came. His own parents abandoned him, his father even stole his money.
Gyu Ri was the first person who really cared for him. I wish he would've run off with her before the whole Min Hee incident and actually have an happy ending.

She did at first but throughout the show it's clear how much she cares for him. I highly recommend it.

You summed it up perfectly..

This show was an intense ride from beginning to end. So many conflicted feelings for the characters. At some point I would like them but also feel annoyed by their actions. All I know is I felt very attached to them. Honorable mention to Mr Lee.

The two leads were brilliant. I believe this is the first time they took on a lead role and I would love to see them take on more projects in the future.

Agreed. She's stood to me in every show shes ever been in. This is the most "Main" of a role I've seen her in so there is hope for her to actually get a Main Lead role in the near future.

I teared up the most in episode 15. The scene where MJ keeps going back to the playground for Yu Ri's mom so she can see her granddaughter.
This show is really making us fall in love with MJ's character.
Can we just get Yu Ri & MJ together and be Seo Woo's mom. Gang Hwa's character has been the most lackluster in the drama and he doesn't deserve either of these 2 amazing women.

If they actually choose an end where GW divorces MJ ifor Yuri to get her place back as Gang Hwa's wife this drama will be a complete failure and waste of time.

I'm truly scared for the last 2 episodes. I don't know how it's going to be a happy ending.
An end where Yuri lives and MJ stays as Seo Woo's mom.

Good to see so much appreciation for this drama in the comments section. I truly wish it was 16 episodes.

One of my favorite dramas. The relationship between the 2 leads is just too loveable and so fun to watch. Hoping for these 2 actors to be paired up in a drama again.

This series is up there with Weightlifting and Strong Woman.

If I have one complaint it would be that the series sort of lost it's touch after episode 30. But since I love this show so much it didn't really bother me.

Overall an easy 9/10.
