I'm Irish and that drama was like a cringe fest. Everything was wrong.The American mother whos supposed to be irish the farm that looks nothing like Ireland, the so called irish people who are vicious animals and the irish dancing costume she wore as if we wear that everyday. And after all that the fact she and her brother love each other and I mean not in a brother sister relationship but in a weird inbred relationship. It drags on and its just weird in my opinion nothing interesting or good about it it failed to captivate my interest and it was just terrible.

To be fair to this drama I think the story they were creating was actually original and I liked the idea of the lead females future self meeting her current self and telling her about her future however it seemed the drama is lacking in quite a few areas... It seems that the writers got a bit confused at what direction they were going to take with the drama, they really couldn't decide what they were going to do with the characters halfway through the drama and I think they just added unnecessary things into the story. I think it could have been a cute drama since they had such amazing actors and actresses who could basically pull off anything in the drama but they writers failed to put anything the actors could sink their teeth into and the dramas plot started to fizzle out by the end. Overall it wasn't an awful drama because the actors really did a great job even if the scripts they were given weren't that great. It's an okay drama that could have been way better if the writers decided earlier what direction they were going to take and not decide in the very last episodes.

This drama to me is clear indication of a kdrama rom-com done right. Lately I have heard and watched some rom-coms and they seem to be lacking something,like the viewer feels like they have sort of wasted their time at the end of the drama but I didn't feel this way with this drama. The male and female lead had great chemistry and both were interesting characters. The premise of a divorced couple meeting each other again was actually fun because the leads could have day dreams of the marriage and they would know things about them that other people wouldn't etc. Some of the secondary characters were a bit traditional evil kdrama characters although I must say it was refreshing to be able to learn about the secondary characters past lives. Overall it was an enjoyable drama+great chemistry+humour =good rom-com!!!

Sometimes you need to forget the stupid scenes and just remember the happy moments in a drama, and that's what I have done. Yes truth be told some of the scenes in this drama were unnecessary and sometimes it felt a bit thrown together. But I can honestly say I enjoyed this drama. Its not groundbreaking but it was enjoyable and fun to watch. The main leads had great chemistry, the female lead was able to portray two different women very well and the story for the most part made sense and interested me enough to keep watching. If your looking for a drama that is cute with some drama in-between and some evil mothers this one is for you!!!

This drama is one which just makes you happy. Sometimes after watching loads of melodramas and action dramas etc. you might feel drained and just physically tired you know what I mean. And a nice sweet romantic comedy is just what you need to pick you up. Its a cute fun drama with elements of family and politics but mainly just cuteness. Its not a hardcore drama that's going to have you on the edge of your seat but I know sometimes I just want an easy watch with fun elements. And that's exactly what i got. The story itself isn't reaching new heights in script writing but the actors bring it to life and you have an emotional connection to the characters your happy when their happy and sad when their sad. Its just a really sweet drama that's nice and easy to watch and makes you feel happy on the inside.

This is the perfect drama for a rainy or boring day. It short, sweet, funny and doesn't leave you feeling like the drama was a waste of time. I really liked the humour in this drama I mean it was actually really funny maybe a little stupid but we all like a bit of stupid humour every now and again. The female lead was really good I've seen her in a few dramas and she is a great actress the male lead was really good as well and he looked cute as a girl (is that weird that i said that). Overall really cute drama if your looking for something fun and easy to watch this is it.

This drama had the whole package for me personally.This drama in my opinion was excellent but with a few errors. I couldn't belive when I first watched it how similar my life was with the main character(not the rich thing though:D). She has an autistic younger brother like myself so she is very helpful to him. I realised that this had to be believable and it really was. The autistic boys acting was spot on and she really did care for him thorughout the story. But anyways back to the drama.The drama was fresh for me as I've never seen a drama with so many elements to it.It is very complex at times and you find yourself stuck to your computer screen. The acting is incredible and the way the bad girl(Moon Chae Won)is able to act so innocent and so evil at the same time is really incredible.A few flaws with it is the length although time passes quickly in the drama you may find yourself a few times screaming at a character to think for a second. But overall it isn't boring.And finally the chemistry between Han Hyo Joo and Lee Seung Ki is brilliant. I would definetly give this drama a ten out of ten and reccommend it for everyone!!

this drama was the most overrated drama this year. I thought it was going to be sooo good. I LOVED choi-kang-hee in protect the boss her acing was great and she had great chemistry with the male lead and joo won as everyone knows is a terrific actor and I expected great things with this drama but it really sucked. There is no chemistry between them, what's up with their hair and the drama is just dragging along with nothing to make me want to finish it. I hope this doesn't affect these two actors careers because I actually think they are talented but just picked completely the wrong project and unfortunately they just don't click onscreen or make your heart flutter. It's an average drama that could have been great but its just not.

A nice, easy to follow film. It was interesting and each of the four womens story interested me. I liked the way the film wasn't all about 4 happily married women but there was single women and different variations of women (as there is in the real world as well). It could have taken out some of the boring scenes but overall a nice interesting film, it was entertaining enough.

After watching I just felt like what was the point? It was fun at the start and I couldn't wait for the romantic scenes of this so called rom com and who she would pick etc. But it never came she just went around in circles until the end with no resolution or real depth to the drama. I just felt the main lead was a good actress and she was trying her best with the script and plot she had but no matter how good her acting was everything else let it down. A huge disappointment and I kind of felt cheated after finishing it. Would only recommend it if you were really really bored.

Every once in a while when watching dramas you find a little gem but this isn't a little gem this a full blown diamond. I just can't flaw it, it was romantic, funny and sad at all the right times. I didn't want the drama to end it was so nice that the kisses weren't like the girl was made of stone but actually real and romantic. Their chemistry was really amazing but what I was actually really delighted about was surprisingly yoo-in na's acting. I felt she was able to come across as vulnerable but strong she wasn't just the typical female lead who let the man do everything she wanted prove that she could be sort of independent. And also the plot was different but also it was done well I never felt that there was fillers(scenes to fill time) in the drama but that everything either had a meaning or was very entertaining. Loved the drama recommend everyone to watch it.

I have to say I'm really disappointed by this drama so far. I have only seen 4 episodes and at first I was so happy because my younger brother has autism and I got a feeling from the plot that it would show people how autistic people can live a normal life while dealing with their autism and showing off their great capabilities. But this drama unfortunately does not do that and portrays autism in a very negative light. I really dislike that the other doctors seem to bully the main character because of his autism(which seems stupid because they are not in a school playground but a hospital) but also because it seems because of his autism he can't do anything for himself and is deemed incapable of ever becoming a good doctor. It is really uncomfortable for me that this is the writers opinion of autism. Don't get me wrong I'm willing to give it a chance and I hope that soon he will be treated as an individual and a human being rather than a child. Lastly I just want to say I actually do like the actors and actresses I just find the plot of the show now very demeaning of autistic people and I kind of think that in the year of 2013 people are better than that and know people with disabilities are not stupid but just as capable as us in whatever they do!
