For fans of Son Ye Jin and Lee Min Ho only.
Full confession: I could sit and watch Son Ye Jin knit a sweater for 16 episodes and be happy as a clam, so having her in a starring role was more than enough for me to stick with this one to the end. But if you are looking for a great story, well told, you should probably pass on this one. It's strictly for fans of Son Ye Jin and Lee Min Ho. The story is overloaded with cartoonish characters, over-the-top plot twists, and kdrama tropes. The creepy villain (played by Ahn Suk Hwan) and the evil ex-best friend (Wang Ji Hye) who won't go away were simply too much, as was the overly drawn-out (and unbelievable) case of mistaken "gay"-dentity. And plot holes? What happened to the loan sharks and the mortgage on the house from episode one?!! Still, it is a bit better than average kdrama starring two of Korea's most recognizable and bankable stars, which should be more than enough for the casual viewer.
