To start with,Tae Kyung is one of those characters whom a girl could easily fall for because in reality a girl will always choose a bad guy over the good one.Tae Kyung is someone whom one hates at first site but as the episodes go further i liked him slowly..park shin hye as the lead is amazing.she knows how to act and can really make cute adoring faces where any guy could fall in love with as so many do in the drama.
the villain is vicious trying to ruin everything but it is the three musketeers who are always there saving Go Mi Nyu.
the romance is also also good throughout which keeps us hooked
the humour of this drama is one of the best.it was so hilarious that mother had to come to the room to ask if a whole army was laughin with me or not..:D
the girl disguising as the guy is one of the most common formula in dramas but i love how kdramas seem to bring the same story in so many different ways changin it in the process.the music score is amazing
the only problem this drama had was that after 12th episode it sort of dragged where i didnt know where it was going.but nothing can be perfect so even with its flaws this drama was a good one..to be rewatched again and again

the acting is not the strong point in this movie.Mei Kwai Lun is pretty good but Jay Chou is robotic.He had to show all these emotions which he couldn't deliver.I agree he's the music composer and the director of this movie but sadly i wished someone else had acted instead of him since they had such good story to follow through.It comes out as a very sweet story with this romance which one experiences once in a lifetime.the romance definately had its moments and was pretty cute to watch
The cinematography is pretty good but it suffers or lacks in other departments which is such a dissapointment.It doesnt explain many things and leaves it to the viewers imagination which should be good but comes out pretty frustrating
The music i believe is its strongest point.Its speellbinding to the point that it almost manages to tranfer us there where our leads are walking together.The duel with the piano is among the best in the movie.The end scene especially.I cudn't glue my eyes away as he plays within that background.simply too awesome.By watching the end scene one would want to actually go there and do what he's doing.Giving no heed to the world and just playing.
Watch it for the sweet romance and the amazing music that flows through it..you'll enjoy it..:)

this drama has the perfect blend of the romance and the melodramatic to give us the best of both worlds
the acting is top notch by Gil Ra Im being acted by Han Ji Won,the main protagonist being a blushing bride in front of oska and a witch in front of the Kim Joo Won,the protagonist..she is adorable..the same goes for Joo Won.though on the surface he comes of as a cold person but as the plot grows we see this guy really holding out his own.
on the romance level this is one of the best dramas out there.the sizzling chemistry between the leads makes us wna continue watching the drama throughout the day..when one is watching the two together its like thy'r gonna self combust with the intensity with which they love each other..they are like fire and ice.
the characters are realistic and true to life..hyun bin is amazing as Kim Joo Won..he is a flawed character which makes him more of a perfect man..the drama follows close on the fairytale formula that the koreans perfect in their various dramas.this drama has the perfect balance between the angst that the main leads have to go through..the whole gender bender makes it more interesting coz at the end we see that evrything has a reason.
the second lead have an equally amazing story behind their relationship.kim sa rang is amazing as the 2nd lead
the music score is one of the best i've heard so far in any drama.'That Man' being one of the best songs for me...
i rated the rewatch value high because this is one drama i can watch year after year never getting bored..so all those who havnt sampled this gem..go and find a new diamond in dramaland..:)

From the acting perspective it comes off pretty strong as we see everyone's beloved Yamapi putting an amazing front of this sportsman who's tryin his best for his family and his team.To score and win the championships.All he lacks is a proper drive.This thrist which can be quenched only if he forgets about everything else and focuses.He can only do that if he meets his once in a lifetime love..which he does btw..:D
Keitagawa Keiko is so pretty as Riko.I think i have a girl crush on her after this.She does her role as a violinist pretty well.
the chemistry between the leads is pretty good as i felt all the flutters that i expect to feel from a romantic drama.It wasn't an angsty drama according to me so it saves a lot of tears.It satisfied me on the romantic front.i loved loved the awkwardness of two strangers turning into friends and ultimately into lovers who are there for each other.The acting and the tranformation of these two people is so believeable.Its like it could actually happen in anyone's life if they are lucky enough.Two neighbours meeting up and their journey through love.Relistic and true to life
I wish they could have spared us the dragging end because after 8th episode it sort of lost it somewhere but came back again with a perfect end.I wished they had focused more on them staying together than on Natsuki who's the type i hate the most
as somebody said earlier its pretty much like watching a cliched kdrama.without all that melodrama stuff
Same song was repeated over and over again but i didnt get bored yet i wished they had more of such uplifting and upbeat music.If the music score had been more vast it would have been a treat.
Give it a go simply for the fresh romance it brings to the screen and how it mixes sports and love together in a brillaint blend..:)

A warm romance
Such a warm warm story. A friend recommended it to me and I couldnt stop myself from watching it.This is the kind of story that could almost be categorized as a Slow film. Nothing much happens here if you ask me plot wise.
Plot: the plot isn't anything out of the ordinary, however what really clinches the deal and sets it apart is the fact that this is a film that is devoted and really committed in understanding its characters. it is not a film that meets your expectations from a romantic comedy. its just different in the way it approaches romance. Taking it slow, it takes that phrase literally., There are no jumping out of the bushes, Screaming characters, crazy reveals or anything of the sort here.
The storyline is simple and has often been seen so many times before but this film takes it premise and then adds warm gentle heartbeats, sounds of the river, the sea into them. It Infuses simple, ordinary moments with a kind of rare beauty.
Acting: the acting was just so realistic. One could see the growth of these characters for another 2 hours according to me. Everyone is having a kind of crisis in this film but it isn't articulated through usual cinematic aesthetics. Instead one sees pain rarely articulated but instead so many other emotions can be seen on the face of these characters. The director makes us Care for its characters. That's a talent people rarely have.
Music: THIS IS AN AURAL DELIGHT. The music you will find here, you wont find anywhere else. Why? Because its literally ASMR. The film focuses hugely on your aural sensibilities. Its gets better when you close your eyes.
Rewatch value: Could watch it a thousand more times with my friends. Perfect for DATENIGHT.

Moon Geun Young as a cold hearted heiress is hard to believe because she's so pretty and her face itself doesn't seem cold hearted at all yet she does her role nicely.it easy to believe how she's turned out like this in the movie
Kim u Hyuk is pretty lacklustre in the starting but at the middle redeems himself.His range of emotions wasn't there.I didnt feel much for him but he slowly grew in my heart and at the end of it,it made sense.The whole thing and how tragedic it was.To loose everything..and gain it again only to loose it again.Life is like that i supoose
It also came out with this question.What if all you loved was on the other side of the world.Would you still live to continue your existence or will you try and go to that side as well.Disturbing but gave me a satisfied closure and an end.Liked the character growth in this one.I felt what the leads felt by the end of the movie
there were many scenes that touched me and the end is good enough that im glad the directer did what he did
Watch it.maybe a few tears will be shed..but this movie is worth it plainly for those few beautiful moments between the leads and the whole meaning of it all

i wasn't sure if Yoochun was gonna do a good job with playing the role of the king but he was perfect for this role.he has improved a lot from his last drama.Ha Ji Min is very convincing in her role and so beautiful too.she acts amazingly well and makes us all emotional.throughout the play i felt what she felt-anger,betrayal everything,that's how good she is.the other 3 guys are just too cute for words.they make up half the comedy of the show and good at that too
the story is very interesting but somehow in between it looses its touch.i loved the part of the mystery of the whole drama and how everything gets explained.but somewhere in between the drama lost touch with me.the whole plot revolves basically around Se Na and her shenanigans.she is one of the most irritating villains i'v come across in a drama.even the villain of you're beautiful seems an angel in front of her.they could have strengeed the whole part giving less space to Se Na and more space to the mystery or the romance part.
the chemistry between the leads is interesting and keeps getting stronger as the drama progresses.i felt the compulsion to finish this just like in 49 days but this is a bad compulsion because all i wanted was for the whole thing to end so that my leads get some onscreen time.
the music is good nothing explosive but sounds good to hear
i rarely rewatch serials but if i get down to rewatching this one i'd prob skip all parts apart from the romance.
this is the type of drama you should watch when you have a week off.coz believe me u wont rest until its finished..:D..its that compulsive..a good romance to spice up anyone's day
