Spoilers in reviews are not allowed. You should remove that part.

That's what I was thinking while watching. I kept waiting to see if they would show the other side with the staircase or that bedroom so I could be sure. But I'm almost positive it was that house.

You could watch the first 8-10 episodes where it is really cute and then just skip to the end. LOL!

They are just postponing some episodes because of the World Cup. Not cancelled as in no more episodes.

Ugh, I'm not happy about the wait, but I appreciate the notice!

I understand that it's a styling choice that was made, but that is just how it looks to me. It looks greasy. Maybe it's because I hate her character so much that I can't find anything good about her. In that sense, the actress is doing an amazing job playing her part, and I have to give her credit for that.

Sorry, I feel just the opposite about her. I think the character is a vile person and that she looks dirty, like she hasn't washed her hair. I don't like her at all.

Since the admin won't do anything, I will ask nicely,
Will you *please* remove the spoiler from your review? That is not a nice thing to do to other viewers, especially when your review is up on the first page. I think everyone would really appreciate it. Thank you!

The two don't communicate well together. Jin Ah moves out of her parent's house while Joon Hee is away on a business trip and lies to him. He asks his boss to transfer him back to the U.S. so he can just take Jin Ah with him and away from her problems (rather than dealing with them head on). Because his transfer goes through and Jin Ah doesn't want to 'run away', they break up. Joon Hee goes to the U.S. and Jin Ah continues on...Three years later Joon Hee shows up at her brother's wedding and sees her with her new boyfriend. She is obviously miserable - the guy just stays on the phone for work all the time. Jin Ah tries to get closure, quits her job (where the sexual harassment was swept under the table) and moves to Jeju. At the very end Joon Hee hops on a plane and runs to find her, telling her it was all his fault and that he can't live without her. They hug and spin around in the rain. The end.

Good article! I've now added Classic to my list! :)

Me too.

I finished and rated it a 6. I'd say it's pretty much all melodrama right up to the end.

I don't know how I feel about this as a review, but it would have made an excellent article about the show. I think it really helped solidify why I felt the way I did about the show. Well-written piece.

I didn't expect it either...and it didn't look like she hated it either.

I hate it - my one pet peeve about this site. I don't know why they allowed it when it was against the rules for so long. Instead of allowing it they should have blocked the ability to do it because people were still doing it then. What's even more baffling is the people that are marking them "helpful".

I agree with the comment that some people have to be "first". I mean that is part of the whole concept of the comment section is to discuss it. I'm still of the firm opinion that you can't review something you didn't finish. (again comment section!)

I've had the same thoughts.

I think that's exactly what is frustrating. Da Shu has been trying and she keeps pushing him away - OTHER people know she still cares for him, but HE doesn't know. To him, she doesn't want to work it out at all but just be rid of him.
They both totally played a part in the breakdown of the marriage.

I agree with all you said, but if they had communicated ANY of this well to each other then it wouldn't have been so frustrating. Although, without that lack of communication we'd have no drama at all! LOL!

The synopsis is TERRIBLE! LOL! I have failed to see any "animalistic traits" and how is Da Shu being "sturdy like a tree" anything 'animalistic'? I've also yet to see them "growing together in love". And what does "Like the show's namesake, animal behavior is quite representative of human nature" supposed to mean? Do the character's names mean an animal name when translated? Because "A Tree in the River" doesn't say anything about animals. So do their names translate to 'giraffe' and 'squirrel' because I don't see how they resemble those animals in any way at all.
Someone explain this synopsis! LOL!

Putting spoilers in reviews is against the rules regardless of the whole other issue of reviewing airing dramas (which I don't agree with but apparently they've changed the rules on.)

And this sentence "so there is still a lot of time for things to get better or worse" is exactly why most of us don't agree with having reviews on airing dramas.
