Hello ^^ So, i'm mostly through this and thought I'd write a review on it thus far.

Firstly, what really sucked me to watching this show was the description given on MDL - i'm a sucker for a good romance. but BE WARNED: while I thought this show would have a drug/gangster secondary story line to COMPLEMENT the romance, its actually the other way around. the gangster theme plays out the main part of the story, and in fact there are far and few scenes thus far between the main leads. (although when there is a scene, its usually really cute :)

so do not go into this expecting romance to be the main component - it does play a part, though.

HOWEVER! Even though based on the description it wasnt what i thought it would be, its still amazing. The plot is so dark and twisted; I can blatantly and happily admit I have never seen such an unpredictable drama. Also, the characters are great to watch. The lines between "good and bad" are so fuzzy; you never know who to trust or what the motivation behind an action is. it keeps you guessing. It makes the show more human; the characters are round and have so many dimensions instead of your stereotypical bad guy-good guy flat characterization.

i would for sure recommend watching this if you love action, suspense, wicked cliff hangers, and some romance :)

OH and i forgot to add: holy shit, this show is a tearjerker. be prepared, dude.

im an avid lover of romance so i was skeptical about watching this at first. There were small moments where romance was hinted at, but nothing that actually happened.

BUT, there are three words that can sum up this drama:
Bromance On Fire.

hahahah, i loooved it.

the character development is awesome, and you find yourself getting teary eyed at moments. I think its made even more powerful by the subtleness of the situations that arise - they feel realistic. they are real problems high schoolers actually might face.

so, ultimately, i would DEFINITELY recommend watching it.
either way, kim woo bin is in it - so you dont have a reason not to watch it ;)

Originally saw this kdrama and was worried because I dont generally like the horror genre. That being said, you eventually get used to the ghosts and even begin to have sympathy towards them. In fact, it just looks like a cheesy scary film from the 90s and you might even start giggling sometimes at the way things are portrayed.

ANYWAYS, so im new to kdrama, so forgive me if I make any mistakes in this review or mislead you in any way. I only recently switched over from anime/manga to dramas.

So far, the story has been interesting. If theres one thing I hate, its shows that dont have a main storyline and only focus on random tasks.(kind of like fillers.) Thats what I originally thought this show would be like; I didnt want to watch a drama based on seperate ghost stories and nothing else. but DO NOT WORRY! there is definitely a good solid plot to this that carries on throughout the entire thing. It takes a good portion of the episodes up, too.

And then there are the characterss...ahhh!! what can I say
