The love line between Yeowool and Kangchi was absolutely beautiful. They were a couple that didn't have a lot of kisses but despite that, you could feel their love from all the little things. The way he looked at her, the way they smiled when they were together, the way they spoke (GUDAE), it looked like they were genuinely in love. Don't forget the loyalty of all the characters, the friendships were so admiring it was touching. Although I was a bit hesitant to watch after Wolryung and Seohwa (their love was beautiful as well) and we got to Yeowool and Kangchi's part because they seemed like such an awkward pairing, but then I ended up getting sucked up into this story line more. Everything just blended so well together: from the revenge plot, the love plot and the friendship plot. It never failed to pull me in and want for more. Since I'm used to hearing modern day language from Seunggi, Suzy and Sungjoon it was a bit weird at first to be honest. The meshing of all the characters just didn't feel like it would work and even the love line with Suzy and Seunggi seemed like an odd pairing because they acted more like siblings. But as time progressed, the chemistry between all the characters seemed to knot so well together and it was just perfect. They stepped into the shoe's of their character flawlessly and even though Suzy showed awkward acting in the beginning it got so much better after a few episodes. KANGCHI, YEOWOOL, GON AND MASTER GONGDAL WERE JUST TOO ADORABLE SOMETIMES I COULD NOT HANDLE IT. Even the main villain, had me believing him to the point where I wanted to wring his neck.The cast had me both crying and hysterically laughing. Couldn't have asked for a better cast for this drama. (especially wolryung mmf that guy is sexy) They often replayed the same few songs, but not once did I ever get sick of it. I'm a sucker for musicians like 4men and boy did they hit the spot with me musically. The songs were beautiful and fit so well with the drama, with a magical feel and most of the songs have you feeling up in just a second. I have no complaints in this area. Rewatch Value: It was an amazing drama, don't get me wrong. I will most likely end up rewatching my favourite parts but I'm just not one to rewatch a drama again. Overall: 10/10 I'd definitely recommend it to you if you are looking for a drama that makes you wanna smile from ear to ear, wring someones neck out and bawl your eyes out (and i'd definitely watch it if you are looking for some good eye candy)
