I am all over the place on this one. On the good side, I found it loads of cheesy fun and surprisingly addictive considering...the bad side. This thing was at least 6-8 episodes TOO LONG. They beat the premise to death when they had at least a ghost's chance to resolve it with some degree of believability. But then they spent the last episodes dragging their feet over the main conflict, going back and forth with the good guy and bad guys exchanging 'wins' that were totally unexplainable, completely undeveloped and out of the blue, and completely nonsensical. There were enough plot holes to drive the White Truck of Doom through! The idiotic ending just had my eyes rolling. So cartoonish. Not that the core resolution of who dies and who doesn't wasn't completely predictable (except maybe one), it was just the way they handled it that cheapened it and made it eye-rollingly cheesy. Still...the good outweighed the bad. I still enjoyed it overall...just ended up ff through A LOT of the last half dozen or so episodes....mostly the overused fight scenes. The fact that I never put this on hold and marathoned it straight through means there was 'something' (what, I still cannot figure out) that kept me wanting to keep watching. 7/10 pushing it.

Good movie, better morality (or lack of) tale. It was quite an adrenaline rush throughout the thing. Certainly an expose type story of just how disgusting the media of today is and how gullible the public is to believe them...but what else is new? No redeeming people here, everyone deserves some kind of condemnation. Still, I enjoyed the ride. 8/10

Watched it on Netflix 'because it was there'. It appeared to be horror genre, which I'm not fond of but I love the cast. Really really enjoyed it. Cinematography was outstanding. One of the most beautifully filmed movies I've seen, gorgeous sets and even more stunning scenery. Production value on this is definitely 10/10. The story isn't new, but they made it interesting to watch and didn't beat the horror/sci fi stuff to death nor make it comical which I really appreciated. Acting was very good, but the cast ensured that. Overall, it's about an 8.5 or 9 for me because I really enjoyed this film. I defaulted to the higher 9 because of the attention to detail in this one. Probably a bit high, but if I enjoy watching something and feel good about it afterwards, I like to add a bit for the entertainment value.

oh thanks for that. I dearly love to read articles where the director, writer, and or actors talk about the drama/film and the characters, so I appreciate you sharing this info very much!

LOVED it. Watch it. You won't be sorry

The story is far more introspective than the synopsis indicates. The sad beginning does lead to a resolution and realization by the end. Whatever life brings, we need to try to keep dancing. Well done. Not sure why the last couple seconds had to be there...I guess to be artsy or something??? Good.

A good show. Interesting premise. Somehow it left me feeling just 'ok' about it though. Not sure why. But a good story none the less.

Wow. Really bad acting on Kris Wu's part. Embarrassingly so. Someone also needs to teach that boy how to kiss too. He is so awkward it's uncomfortable watching him. All of the so called 'romance' in this seemed to be him clumsily attacking her. He is far from ready for this kind of lead role. And scenes requiring strong emotions from him were just so forced, obviously so. Strangely, the rest of the movie and the rest of the actors were actually quite watchable. Lovely to look at too. It's not a movie I'd recommend to anyone, but it could have been much better (for me) with a different lead.

I'm betting on LJK. He just signed on as Lotte's model and spokesperson.

another perspective on this movie....http://www.mediacircus.net/ditto.html

Insanely good. Never seen such a naturally real relationship in a kdrama before. I, like others, find it not too hard to believe these two have something going on together outside this show. Even if they don't, the level of writing for their relationship, dialogue, and interactions is great, but it is overshadowed by how intense the chemistry of these 2 was and how well and how naturally they played it.

ok. Comedy, straight up comedy like 90% of this was, isn't my favorite genre. The jokes get old, they beat them to death, the 'classes' were overkill...a plot device that was good for maybe one time for 5 minutes used over and over. Still, it had its moments. Using a weather man as the goat is perfect. Precipitation chances are 0-100% and those are numbers we can stand behind. :) Do you know what the similarities of a husband and a weather center are? Watch to the end and you will find out.

On Netflix 11/2016.

thanks!

is this being subbed anywhere?

Really good.. The episodes go by very fast. There is a lot of going back and forth between the two 'lives' she is leading, as well as time jumps, especially in the last episode. They did a really good job with the idea of 'what if I had made this other choice for my life's path', but the time jumps did make the story a bit disconnected. It definitely helps to watch it marathon style I think. Esp if you are old and forgetful like me. Very Enjoyable.

I won't start because I won't be able to stop myself. One great performance cannot make up for all the rest of the problems I had with this thing. But there are plenty of others here that have listed those. I'll just settle on a couple. The one MOST egregiously irritating thing about this drama was the insane over use of shaky cam. The WORST camera work of any show I have ever seen. I would gladly strangle the camera operator. Ji Chang Wook has said he is never going to do another action show. Understandable. The overuse of action scenes in this diluted their effect. It moved into ridiculous when they had a guy who was bloody, staggering, and falling taking on a dozen guys at a time over and over again. RME

A very nice short film, under an hour. I watched for D.O. I am never disappointed. It's obviously a motivational film. Towards the end our protagonist says in a voice over that his dreams or goals are not just his own, but his friends' and family's also. It's really true. Those who love you, your friends, your mom, your dad, whomever, are just as invested in your dreams as you are. Even if they are against them. Because those who love you worry about you, about as much as you do about yourself. Whatever it is that you are dreaming of, when you give up on it before fighting to obtain it, you not only fail yourself, you fail them too. Because they want you to succeed in whatever it is you are willing to fight for, willing to put yourself out there to achieve. Failure isn't not succeeding....it's quitting before giving yourself the chance to succeed or fail.

I agree...amazing, amazing show. Fantastic over the top chemistry, insanely good dialogue and script, perfect production. I was thrilled with every minute, could hardly wait until the next episodes posted. I dreaded finishing these last 2 because I knew I would be so sad it was over. But the cure is right in front of me. I'm starting over tomorrow! I rarely give 10's. But, for the unmitigated joy this show gave me, I'm caving. A 10 it is.
