Story: This is my first makjang and the first drama I've completed with >20 episodes so I was cautious at first. Although the story does get draggy, the director makes it such that each episode ends off with a cliffhanger keeping you eager to find out what happens next. Since it is a makjang it never gets boring and you can expect all the exaggerated drama plots in a usual makjang. However I would say the story line is overall smooth and easy to follow. Acting/Cast: The cast was amazing. Lee Dong Wook: For a character like Jaewan's, LDW managed to appropriately show the many sides of his character: from trauma to shock to sadness to disbelief to love, you name it. You can really see it in his eyes. Lee Da Hae: LDH's character did not require as much as compared to LDW's but she portrayed Mone nicely. Also one important factor that made this show easy to watch was the two lead's chemistry. For those who've watched My Girl, it's hard to believe but they're chemistry could still get better :> Im Seulong/Wang Ji Hye: To be honest, I didn't really see anything worth noting for these 2 actors but that's also partly because of the characters they had to portray. ISL constantly had to portray the poor second lead who never gets the girl but constantly helps her anyway and likewise WJH the girl who constantly looks towards Jaewan but knows she can't get him anyway. But one thing I like about the 2 is that they didn't really pose a threat to OTP but instead helped them along the way. Jin Tae Hyun: Oh lomannnn.. Like Jaewan, Loman also had a dark past and hence has a lot of emotions within him. JTH, like LDW also managed to portray Loman's emotions very well making me feel pity for his character all the time, understanding him all the time (even if he may be doing something one may perceive as "wrong") It's easy to like his character. Lee Deok Hwa/Kim Hae Sook: These 2 really prove that they are veterans in the acting industry. From their actions to their emotions, they've got it all. Nothing else needs to be said. F4/Alex Chu, Gong Hyun Joo, Go Yoon, Kim Sun Hyuk: I liked F4 it just made the whole hotel concept seem cooler with them helping out Mr GM. I especially liked Gong Hyun Joo as Cha Soo Ahn always helping OTP and always being kind. Music: I guess OST was okay for a drama but not anything I'd listen to on my mp3. Rewatch value: For me this drama was overly draggy and since it was a whole 32 episode long it would be tiring to watch it a second time, as it takes a lot to watch the makjang with all the roller coaster rides it brings you on. Overall: I would say this is drama worth watching, especially for all you OTP shippers out there and also those who would love a makjang to watch.
