I kept hoping there would be a twist end with Ooshiro-san. Loved him.

ya, that is inappropriate to use as a description of someone that is making poor choice/choices that do not make sense. It is insulting to people who are "developmentally disabled"(the correct term).

He is a cop but before that, he is a human who is going through a lot of emotional stuff. His first thoughts were about seeing if his father was a dirty cop and or somehow involved. His hobbies are not knitting and computers, His personality to start with is run into the fight. ... it is hinted at, as to why that is too. He said something to the effect that he had lived most of his life expecting to die anytime... also, he is someone with a repressed memory and guilt for wrongfully accusing his own father for murder. This is probably the root cause of his recklessness.

Is that just a poor translation? The use of the last word in your comment in that manner is frowned upon.

Is this available anywhere to watch?
Thanks

I have liked it, so far. They have kept the mystery going up until last weekends episodes, and just when you think you know everything, they threw in a twist reveal. I don't even have a guess of where this new twist will take the story. I personally like the 3 main actors/actress. As long as you don't dislike any of them, you should give it a shot.

I agree. I also really liked it. I especially didn't understand when people complained that certain scenes of the female were awkward. The whole point was that that character was hesitant and awkward about love and the lead male was all about work. I loved that the love story was being told like a mystery too.

I am really enjoying it. Looking forward to episodes of this more than anything else I am watching atm. (also watching Watcher, Hotel Del Luna, Level up, Rookie Historian Goo Hae Ryung, and I Don't Love you yet). I happen to already like the male lead from having seen him in Marriage Not Dating. I don't recall seeing the female lead before. So far, I think she is doing a decent job. The story is so interesting. I love the mystery aspect. Hoping they are not revealing too much too soon.

I am only on episode 11, but have to say the adorableness knows no bounds. I did have to look up what was up with her hairstyle... apparently it is a trope and the hairstyle is sometimes referred to as the "idiot" hairstyle. I love older dramas like this. Wish the new ones would stick with this winning formula. Of course, a good comedic actress like Ella goes a long way in making the drama too. At first, I didn't really like Jerry Yan because I thought he was just too handsome to be a believable couple with Ella's character... but I am starting to really love him. Any other Jerry Yan dramas I should try to watch? While I am at it, are there any other Ella dramas as adorable as this one(other than Hana Kimi)? I would love some recommendations.

I really enjoyed the first episode. Since this is on Kocowa, I will have to save up a couple weeks episodes and binge them at once with the day pass. That is fine, since it feels like it is moving a bit slowly, for some reason, to me.

Anyone know if the book is available in English and if so where to find it?

Holding my breath to see how the king reacts to the scene he has just walked up on.

I agree that this character is a good fit for her.

Ooo. I wonder when they added it.... that is awesome. Thank you.

Just watched the first couple minutes of ep 1 and had to stop to comment. I laughed so hard about the ladies who were upset saying "you've been reading a story in which they don't even end up together?" "I'm speechless. How can you call this a romance novel".... I totally identify with these ladies. That is totally me, when I watch a drama I am expecting to have a lovely adorable ending and then surprise, everyone dies.

Whoa! That last scene in ep 9.

I finally found a copy of the dvd to buy.(on eBay) seller says it has good eng subs. I bought 1 and they have 2 more copies left. Crossing my fingers that it really does have good eng suns. Shipping is estimated to be a month... now to find season 2 they kiss again with eng subs.

I don't remember how many ep. there were in the Dramafever version, but I do see that the dvds for sale on ebay list 30 ep. too. Oh, how I wish I could find it on dvd subbed in english. I desperately want to have my own copy, just in case it becomes unavailable online. Can only find it with mandarin/cantonese though.

Enjoyed it! I will miss these character now that it is over.

I don't think she was written as a weak female character at all. Instead, I think the message is that humans are all weak in front of the person they love. She was not the only one that had awkward, shy, and vulnerable moments. Way more than her, the male lead did all sort of things for and because of her.
Being well educated, accomplished in your field, and being natural in front of strangers you are not romantically interested in, will not be an indicator of being or not being shy in front of the person you have a crush on. Zheng Hui was equally as educated as her and was quite tongue tied in front of her, when it came to saying his feelings.
When you find that person you really love, you want to do everything you can for that person... but in doing that, she still didn't sacrifice anything. She never gave up on anything important in her life and he didn't ask her to either. She continued her singing, she continued her studies, she turned down his first real proposal, she continued with her friendships. She was not oblivious to how much effort she made to navigate his ever changing mood either. She was mindful, not to lose herself and even said so to her mom.
