not worth the time

Another drama that is a waste of time to watch. I actually didn't know where the writer was going with each episode.

I loved the Slovenia part of the shoot but other than that, there is nothing else that would take up your interest.

The dialogue is off, the story is off, the acting (except for the lead actor). The story has somewhat of a fairytale vibe but it is so poorly written. I cannot understand why the lead actress has this desire to approach the second lead every time. When you think about it, there wasn't much interaction between them except for the time she got the coat.

The setting of the boutique felt cheap and not well thought out.

I couldn't stomach watching the rest so I dropped it at ep 5

Refreshingly funny

I am now officially a fan of Shin Hye Sun! Have seen her in supporting roles before and she didn't exactly leave any lasting effect on me.

After just the first episode, I am hooked! She carried out her role perfectly. So in love with her acting. I actually can't imagine any one else portraying the Queen's role.

Kim Jung Hyun is also great as the King. It is nice to see how his feelings slowly develop for someone he wasn't even remotely interested in in the first place.

Both leads have great chemistry together and it would be nice to see them in future projects. Hopefully one with a worthwhile story so as not to waste their talents.

P.S. The only issue that I have when watching historicals is that I cannot seem to remember the other characters. I have a hard time memorizing the names of supporting characters so I usually rely on facial recognition. But for historical dramas, most of them have the same attires so it gets confusing at times

Just so so for me

I watched this because I became a fan of Lee Je Hoon after seeing him in Move to Heaven.

This drama is about taking revenge for the oppressed. The cases the group take in varied from bullying, illegal porn video rings, syndicates etc. It showed a lot about the dark sides of life and what some people have to bear with.

The drama had really great characters like Sung Chul and Prosecutor Kang Ha Na. But, honestly, I couldn't get why they had to have the taxi and the video game angles. It was also kind of lame having that secret hideout in the basement, as well as the so called improvements on the deluxe taxi. It felt like a James Bond wannabe type of operation. But that's just my opinion. Nevertheless, watching how these evil characters get punished was somewhat satisfying.

Overall, while it had flaws, the series proved to be entertaining enough

Could do without the FL... very irritating

I have never seen any previous works of the 3 main characters but I am liking the 2 male leads. Honestly, they could have made this drama without the female lead. She has a pretty face and at times looks a bit like Park Min Young and Lee Ji Ah. But her character is so over the top for me.

I am dropping this title simply because I cannot stand the FL. Cannot find one good thing about her acting. The character is too flawed. She's too easy, acts naive, thinks everything she does is cute.... well you get the idea. Totally sickening....


Would like to see more or Lee Jun Ho though. I think he has a lot of potential and can pair well with other leading ladies.

First time for me to drop a series purely because I got so irritated with the FL. They should have cast someone else. Better yet, removed her totally from the story

Pointless and senseless plot

After watching a great drama wherein I liked all the characters, this one was the total opposite.

First off, the rich kids irked me. I like the second male lead in Dr. Romantic. But here, his acting was just over the top. Even the girl from True Beauty was over the top.

Secondly, the story itself. How shallow can one get that they would just hurt someone because of a bet??? Seriously, is it even believable that these kids have sooooo much time on their hands that they can afford to do this???

Lastly, the female lead was pretty. At first I though she had a stronger character and would not fall for the sweet lines of the male lead. But, turned out she fell too easily. She was also acting as if they were already a couple even with just a few interactions.

All in all, for me, a waste of time and talent

Surprisingly good

I was at first hesitant to watch this because there wasn't anything in the title that made it sound interesting. But surprisingly, this rom-com is such a breath of fresh air.

From the visuals, backdrop, actors, dialogue....close to perfection :) It is not like your typical rom-com which gets boring after a while. This one continues to deliver a great and interesting storyline.

It is my first time to watch Byeon Woo Seok and he nailed being a high schooler. So did Kim Hye Yoon for that matter.
The camaraderie of the cast is apparent in their interaction and each carried out their roles impeccably.

This is now the only kdrama that I am looking forward to now that QOT has finished its run. Can't wait for the next episodes...

Best kdrama for 2024

Best drama so far.... I can't remember watching a drama that I have so much love and fondness for except this.

The casting was perfect! Who would have thought that the 2 leads would have such sizzling chemistry???! They truly embraced their characters to the point that you cannot imagine any other person for these roles.

I liked how each actor got their share of the limelight with the roles they portrayed. So much so that I started following them on IG as well. The story, while not that original but well told in a way that you will not get bored. The OST is aslo hands off amazing. The melodies AAARRRGGHH..... they bring you back to the scenes and emotions.

QOT will be up there in the number 1 position of my favorite kdramas of all times. Hard to beat them really.

Can't wait for the time they will be paired again. Hopefully a rom-com

don't know why i am watching this

was looking for something like penthouse and heard that this was up for a second season,

first off, i don't know any of these actors and actresses. Their acting comes off as amateurish.
It is also so boring that i fell asleep several times,

Though i am only just at ep 2, I can definitely say I dislike the character of Park Joo Mi and her mother. Their dialogues are repetitive. The mother couldn't even act. It is so frustrating that everytime they have. scene together, it is always on the same topic. It's like reading a book with 5 pages of narrative without dialogue.

Not even worth the time and effort to watch this.
