It is long, sometimes slow but mostly interesting and addictive, you will want to keep watching and wanting more.
Why?
The story is interesting and enjoyable. Very adorable characters, each having their own personal story which is fun to watch yet so interactive.
The family bond is so cute with nice parents who are supportive and loving.
The Uncles and the inlays story was the least interesting, and sometimes I used to skip those parts. Sorry!
If you like family dramas, then don't miss this one
Overall: A great family show, fun enjoyable and feel good!

I like the leads and enjoyed the first part, then the story got very predictable. So skipped a lot in the last few episodes.
Lots of loose ends, it feels like an incomplete story. The story could have been better written.
Anyway everyone got a happy ending even though it was kind of rushed.

The acting is superb, especially of the evil king, he did the best job, I've seen him in many plays but this one is defiantly his best work
The rest did a wonderful job too. All characters portrayed their work so good that you loved the good and hated the evil ones with a vengeance.
saw and then re saw with my husband again and enjoyed both times equally.
Sageuk lovers don't miss on this one.
Overall: highly recommended.Enjoy!

The story is very mediocre. No cliffhangers or thrills that want you to keep watching, just plain and simple entertainment, and all that eye candy, you don't mind watching.
The acting is also mediocre. The second lead was better than the lead and please don't make me talk about the leading lady...ufffff...pure torture. Im sorry to say that she was the most boring and unwatchable part of the show. No expression no acting and absolutely unlikable character. I am not sure it was the writing or her, I think it was both. The side love story was more entertaining with better acting. I wish they had shown more of that, rather than the main love story which was very annoying. When they try to make everyone fall in love with a character who is super boring, it is really annoying to watch.
the music was catchy and fun, although it was badly edited at times.
Overall it was not bad, but could only watch as there was no other drama to watch yet and I love a sageuk. Don't expect it to be like a sageuk (because they are really beautiful) then you will be ok.

All the characters are likeable and had good chemistry with each other.
even the medical cases were interesting.
Teacher KIms character is very interesting, and his relationship with his students although different with each student is so nice.
The basic story revolves around him. There is little romance but its sweet.
Overall a good drama,

My opinion: Cute and fuzzy. Feel good. Great chemistry. Girly friendship, and best of all such a lovely couple.
Overall a great romantic comedy, no villains, no heartburning situations or killjoys. Basically a drama which gives you positive vibes, inspirational and lots of cute romance.

This was short sweet and totally adorable show. I wish they would make more like these. There were no extra fillers, the story was focused, cute and interesting.
I really liked the grouchy bad tempered hero and for a change an innocent and lovable heroine. She was naive yet not dumb or stupid.
This was definately a feel good mood boosting drama. I finished it in one go as I could not stop.
Overall a must watch for the romantics and people who are feeling low. It will certainly cheer you up.

Then the politics hits you and many many uninteresting side characters, no loyalty to anyone, you never know who is with who. then you start to loose interest but still the main story keeps you addicted so you don't want to drop it.
Basically I just FF the boring details and kept watching the parts I wanted. Still I hardly missed out on anything of the main story.
Ji Chang Wook is amazing, Yoona is ok, nothing special, but the main villain vamp is just too good. You hate her for all the horrible things she does, yet you pity and feel sorry for her at the same time.
What really annoyed me was the camera work, it was so shaky, literally making me dizzy at times.
overall: Revenge revenge revenge. Don't expect it to be like healer, then you are ok. Its addictive and the story keeps you interested but it has lots of boring details.

Although a few episodes longer than the usual Kdrama format, never a dull moment.
Even though I don't like indescisive people, I found here the love triangle is handled very well.
It was a pleasant change that they took the serious elements and portrayed them in a positive and light way rather than turning a light fun watch into a melodrama.
I have to say I liked the second lead a lot, still I loved the spoilt brat of a hero, he portrays his character so well.
I have always liked this actress, and have seen nearly all her drama, here too she does a good job. The other thing is the skinship, done so naturally with someone you love.
No evil moms, no vamps creating misunderstandings, no annoying or heart burning moments.
It would have been better if all the side stories had been wrapped up well, the kids romance, the ajummas and the chef, but they were not given enough time to evolve and complete.
The main story was very well done.
overall a pleasant and enjoyable watch. Time well spent.

It certainly is addictive and engrossing, but tends to frustrate you on a lot of issues.
I loved the part with the princes meetings, they were the lighter moments of the drama. Lots of intrigues and twists which sometime you like and sometime you feel...why??
The first love story su/wook is given much more time to develop and grow than the Su/So love story, confusing the audience who to root for. Besides how can a nice kind person suddenly change overnight. not possible. All in all I found the character of Su very fickle and indecisive, switching princes..its annoying. Just not well written, to top it off the actress although better here than her previous works, is so expressionless. I don't know about others but I had very little sympathy with her and found her choices annoying.
The end was kind of incomplete. Lots of things are left for the audience to figure out themselves. I would have liked it better if they had some parts of the present day life between characters.
Overall I liked it but not as much as the other sageuk I have seen earlier. Don't expect too much but deserves to be watched atleast once.

Yeh!!!! for no baddies, heartburning or love triangles, just a great story by itself.
Lots of talk of it being related or similar to some other shows, but I enjoyed it a lot and it was a first for me so it doesnt matter.
I really enjoyed the heroes acting especially as he had to play many different characters. The heroine was OK, im not a great fan of hers, but she did her job well.
Go for it people, no wasted time here.

Pretty much had everything. Suspense, excitement, comedy, romance, thrills and fights.
Although I do have to confess, it reminds me of many shows rolled into one, still I enjoyed it a lot. (Sorry to say but I am a little partial to the hero, I have liked all his dramas, as an innocent, sweet, loveable but strong character)
I liked all the character development. And welcomed that it did not have heart wrenching heart burning scenes and people. Pretty much had likeable characters, except for our good ol baddie who wasnt that hateful either.
all episodes had enough gripping power to avoid the FF button, each ending with a strong cliff hanger. ( I have decided to end an episode in the middle, as usually the ending makes you want to keep watching, and we all have to sleep and work!) I was a bit dissapointed with the rushed ending.
Overall an interesting watch, wont mind watching again sometimes.

LnF was certainly an unexpected find. I loved the story which was heartwarming and addicting. The acting was good and chemistry was great. Especially the love scenes were so natural as compared to korean drama, it shows how a couple should and do act when they discover they are in love.
It was also a pleasant change not to have any evil baddies creating constant friction.
The only negative was the length, wish it was shorter, maybe 20 or so episodes. I loved the first half of the drama more than the latter, especially I hate the writers putting in fillers to keep the drama running for so long.
overall good romantic and addictive. I would definately recommend to watch if your are looking for this genre.

Then it started lagging, and I ended up fast forwarding a bit. Lots of fillers which got boring at times.
There is romance, but it gets overweighed by the father son relationship. That seemed the most interesting part of the drama. It transitioned from hatred to pure love, and the process was really heartwarming.
Overall: Not bad, but not great either. It was a good watch especially as I was in the process of waiting for all the other dramas to finish, as I usually watch when they finish airing.

I watched this because I like both the lead actors. They have dont a good job.
The story is a simple love story, how the past can suddenly change a relationship, then you have to make choices wether you want to accept it and go ahead with it or let the boat go and move forward.
The choice of the hair color was a definate no no, but well you let it slide ;)
Overall: Sweet and meaningful.
