Yes this is based on a Chinese Book, but this is a remake and they sort of buy the rights, so under the hands of a good screenwriter even a bad book would turn into a marvelous drama. Most of the actors are wasted in the drama, we did not see anything much of love. Scarlet Heart Back in 2011 was my first CN drama. It was the first year I started to watch Korean CN dramas did not know much about them, I accidentally discovered them on youtube.. I can only say this this was not as brutal as the original one.

I still want a S2 if all the fans get together and push them by petitions & twitter parties we'll get it but we won't get anything by sitting and hoping..

I am still not recovered by this drama, I want to go and watch it back, I have done the same on Scarlet Heart a couple of times.

If you have got patience & time go for it.

Chitaba & Patawee's love story starts in Paris, one of the most romantic cities. It started really well, and I hoped it'd go on like this (mind you that I've dropped this lakorn at the time due to lack of subs after ep 6 and didn't bothered completing it after it was completely subbed )

But Patawee understands that Chitaba is his enermy's daughter while leaving Paris.

Chitaba's dad kills himself due to gambling debts to Patawee.

Patawee asks Chitaba to be his mistress for a year (while he has his own girl friend, with a greedy mother)

Chitaba accepts it to get her house back.

Patawee constantly rapes her

Behaves her like sh*t.

Not only Patawee mentally abuses her, his girlfriend and her mother, one of the housemaids also mentally abuses her.

Chitaba is a strong willed girl and she knows how to fight .

Patawee's girl friend has a heart disease and tbh expected to die anytime

Chitaba eventually falls pregnant but she wanted to abort the baby.

Luckily Chitaba had people on her side and they did their best to help her.

Is it a happy ending ? depends on what you understand from happy ending.

If you got patience, go ahead and watch, you can always watch it in ff motion.

It's modern revenge / slap kiss drama

When 12th master offers her a suicide pact & Fleur accepts it.

Than we have a time jump around 50-60 years in late 80's of Hong Kong.

Fleur appears on news paper office where Yuen works and tells him that she wants to place an ad to find Chan, who never arrived in the afterlife, she uses a code that indicated time and date, year of her suicide.

Yuen feels sorry for her gives her some money, but she follows her to Yuen's house, Yuen's girl friend first get suspicious thinking that he's cheating on her, but soon understands that she's a ghost.

I first started to watch this in 2015, and I found something more interesting, jumped to that drama, completely forget about this.. Recently I started to rewatch and this drama needs to be in dramas to watch when you are having a bad day, it is not a drama that has a rewatch value but it's light and fun.

Actually I liked Tae-Won his character is childlike and I do like that sort of men, that I can be a child with him. and tbh Min Woo does a superb job portraying Tae-Won as he also personally likes cute things and he shares those on his IG.

Yun Hak sort of reminds me of Jon Gi, mostly his eyes, the way he looks :) Jin Sung she was on the Bride of The Century and I liked her there but even on that drama her tone of voice was a bit loud.

For me Hye Rin (Hye Mi) & Min Woo ( Tae Won) should be the leading characters and Jin Sung ( Jin Na) Yun Hak ( Hee Chul) more compatible.

The problem is Min Woo is good at choosing the worst dramas for him

His character wasn't written properly he was ultra innocent more like 2-3 year old. Jin-Na is the master of the master of lies. She's doing everything to have a luxury life, in other words she's sort of gold digger

I do enjoy cute dramas,and this is one of them..

She is the illegitimate daughter of a rich business man after his death, the wife brings her into her house and she starts to live like a princess. She is been promised to marry another rich businessman's son, she chased him for a long time, he did not like her, she fell in love with a different guy and the other guy who at the time did not fancy now starts to chase her.. It's a sort of love triangle but in a funny way..

She keeps on having day dreams in the middle of things.. that makes this drama quite funny too

It gets boring time to time but if you do not have anything to watch go for it.

I love the drama, I am not sure which Geun Suk to love, the one who was In Ha or Suh Joon, the makeup, hair styling, wardrobe was done so nicely that I had hard times recognising Yoona in 2012's comparing to her 1970's self. I love the friendship, how friends sacrificed for each other.. With this drama the ones who are born in 1990's and later learnt about 1970's about the music, love, lifestyle and politics, I have to say I loved the musics, both the OST and the other musics chosen for the drama, Where do I begin the theme song of Love Story was a spot on for Sun In Ha - Suh Joon / Yoon Hee - Ha Na just listen Where do I begin To tell the story of how great a love can be the sweet love story that is older than the sea The simple truth about the love she brings to me Where do I start.. Also One Summer Night by Chelsia Chan, I love Rain by Geun Suk.. both actors done their parts well, I am amazed how Baek Hye-Jung (Son Eun-Seo) from the 70's and how Yoo Hyre RI(Hye Jung ) from the 2012's looked like each other..

when I saw chubby Seo In Guk in 70's I said WHAATTT!!! wait!!!! is he really Seo in Guk and when I saw him singing in 2012's I could not help myself but laughing.

Kim Si Hoo as Lee Dong Wook/Lee Sun Ho did not changed much.. In 2012's it was his time to sacrifice, bury his feelings to his heart..

in 1970's Sun In Ha & Lee Dong Wook ( haah such a coincidence we have an actor who is carrying the same name LDW) & Sun In Ha was in love with her, and he was faster and told his feelings to Kim Yoon Hee, in 2012 it was Suh Joon faster told his feeling to her, Lee Sun Ho kept his feelings hidden for his friends happiness, in 2012 we also have Tae Sung we first know about him when they were in Japan and also his feeling about Ha Na when they were talking about Diamond Snow, he silenced his friend by covering his mouth, as seeing - watching Diamond Snow with a boy / girl means that they'll fall in love. This drama is totally about FATE..
So history repeated itself but in a different way..

I loved that it is a happy ending on both parties everyone have their happy ending.

I do not care about the ratings, I loved the drama, I enjoyed watching it, it is a drama filled with romance without being cheesy I cried on some scenes and still cry on some of the musics played in the drama..

I would go and watch this drama again and again without getting bored.

Do not give importance to negative reviews, this drama does not deserve negative reviews.. It is only you who can decide whether it is good or bad.. Give the decision after watching the first 4 episodes.

If you are not into romance- romantic person, who does not enjoy romanticism, do not even start go and watch something else..

This drama was on my target for the last couple of years but not sure to watch it or not but I gave it a chance and I am happy about it.

Other than jumping immediately to 2012 I would loved to see some the transformation how they got married - children being friends wth each other. Just noticed we don't know anything about LDW wife and we know why Chang Mo never got married

The story starts when a grandma receives a phone call and flies to USA from Korea, Her granddaughter is living in USA, so they stayed in the house where she and her family stayed around 45 years ago, and flashback begins.

A werewolf boy it was on my watch list for such a long time but never watched it up until recently. This movie is giving me the taste of pure love. A werewolf boy a wild boy falling in love to human girl and how it develops, it is such a pure love, how girl works on him to teach him how to eat, how to behave, how to read.

So does he protected her from her so called fiance when he had a rape attempt and killed the guy. After that they go in different routes.

When both reunite 45 years later, she said I came back, why did you wait, I had continued to my life, had fun, travelled. Now I am an old lady, got wrinkles, gone gray, Cheol Su still looks the same as he was 47 years ago...

after that moment Cheol Su speaks, says no you are still the same, your smile never changed...
She is also shocked as he could not speak before, she spend the night where he sleeps, he read her a book, the book that her father gifted to her and she gave it to Cheol Su...

When she was talking the Cheol Su suddenly she turns young again. they had a hug ( I think we are seeing it from Cheol Su's eyes, for him she is always young and beautiful)

When she woke up in the morning he was gone. When she and her granddaughter was leaving, we see him making a snow man.

I wish they had given us a kiss..

I never thought that I would be bawling in this movie.. but I was bawling..

Song Joong Ki did an brilliant job playing Cheol-su. Although he was silent up until the last moments of the movie..

We see he never gave up waiting for her, he never lost his hopes.

This movie shows us Song Joong Ki is such a great actor, he only used his body language here and it was so brilliant.

This drama deserves a remake..

I admit I do get bored sometimes while watching it but what I do i watch 2-3 episodes drop it for a couple of days and return back watching. I think the chemo between Kim Sung Yeo and Jo Yang Sun is great. Yes Kim Sung Yeo is a bit clumsy, naive, stubborn but she loves Jo Yang Sun and that's what makes her character unique. I do like her here a lot. In this drama she almost looks like young girl more like an adolescent, her mimics is also quite well. Like even if you do not watch it with subs, you can understand she's shocked, unhappy, surprises. LJG can't say anything negative to his acting and he is very handsome, he speaks with his eyes.

GWi Lee Soo Hyuk for me he's a perfect match for a Vampire, he is a perfect with for supernatural characters. He has a pretty unique face comparing LJG, Baekhyun, Changmin, Kang Ha Neul, Bo Gum, Lee Min Ho etc


Yes Yang Sun's ex lover as her reincarnated self gonna play an important role in the drama but I do not really ship them here.

Didn't really like the music but whoever is their stylist is s/he done a great job. I loved the outfits. Actually when YS first saw Choi Hye Ryung as her reincarnated self Lee Myung Hee the outfit she was wearing reminded me what Hae Soo was wearing in Scarlet Heart Ryeo in one of the episodes.

The drama could be less boring but more attractive - exciting to us as audience.
