Whoa, it took me such a long time to finish this drama, so I can't believe it's over now! What can I say, it was really frustrating jorney, witch made me feel many different kind of emotions! Some of them were good, and some were not.. I'll start with what most people who wathed it, said: 50 episodes was way too much for this story! If they'd made this at least 30, I'd give it much higher rank, because at least 1/3 part of this went to unnessesary strugles of unnessesary characters! And it's a pity actually, because the basis of this drama was really good - it could be great, if they'd take all those unnessesary parts away!
So what made me stick with this during 50 episodes? Definitly the leads! Both were adorable, had a good chemistry, and their characters were ones of the few that were well written! CEO Shin (Jo Jun Suk)- he wasn't typical arrogant playboy, on the opposite - he was very caring and cute, and his romantic lines were one of the bests I've seen in k-drama!  Lee Sun Shin ( IU) - yes, her character was suppossed to be typical female lead Cinderella - poor girl, that fells in love with rich guy, good to everyone and always do the right thing, but somehow IU could make her very real and likeble! I liked, that she wasn't crybaby ( maybe sometimes, but in the situations she was allowed to cry lol), she never burdened others with her problems, always tried to be bright and optimistic, and also for a change she wasn't that idealistic fighter for justise, but regular girl next door, with her emotions and doubts! She really made me like her and sympathise with her! From older characters I'd like to metion Song Miryeong - I hated her characther most of the time, but she always kept me curious - I never knew what she's gonna do next.. I like this type of characters who is not one-dimensional, she wasn't just bad or good, but had always some hidden story behind. Rest of the characters were quite typical, but still I learned to like some of them :)  And all the cast did a really good job, I think everybody were exellent in their roles! Starting with the little Uju:) I also liked the music!
Don't want to keep it long - yes, it was a makjang, sometimes I felt annoyed, but I made it to the end - it means after all it was good! Because if I don't feel it, I don't keep watch even much shorter dramas! Lol.. Apart from being makjang, it was cute, heartwarming, sometimes funny, sometimes emotional.. Some scenes were very good, so if you'll give it a shot, you'll maybe be able to enjoy it.. I don't regrett watching it, I'll even maybe miss the charaters sometimes! :) Give it a shot - there's always a time when you need something to watch, witch is not too heavy, and can stick with you for a long time! My feels after watching it are good!
