What i liked most was the male lead aka moo myong, he was not the normal obnoxious type that kdramas normally have. this drama didn't drag so many things, a problem appeared, a problem disappear immediately after a short while.. also there were no stupid cliched misunderstandings. it was straight forward However the plot wasn't as strong.and it also relied so much on eavesdropping, i bet the writers were like thank god for thin walls otherwise nothing would have moved forward in this drama. other than that this drama as amazing, the character development was amazing, they slowly changed little by little and with reason not drastically. also the romance could have been stronger, and the father son relationship could have been more emotional. i would give it a 10 but that ending was just, ah ah no..

although this drama suffers from being compared to you're beautiful which was a masterpiece. this drama itself was not a joke. the music was great, in that i am not so into rap but i liked it this time. the girl was actually a tom boy, it was way different from you're beautiful this girl was more daring and it was short so i watched it really quickly. however the story was a bit simple but also interesting. i loved it

This drama was great, the music, acting even the cast it's self. It was funny,the chemistry wasn't had to look for. Geun suk us un amazing actor. I liked the mean yet so lonely personality. And the way park shin hye portrayed this role was so great that every version of this story tries to mimick exactly how she reacted to every thing. I simply loved it. However I think mio in the japanese version sang the song better than gu minam.other than that it barely had any other flows.but the storyline was perfect,the humour was there. I have watched it over and over again. It was SUPERB

First I would like to give it a hooray! Why u ask. This is the only japanese drama that I have managed to not drop. Which makes it the first japanese drama I have watched. The comedy never stopped. The story lay out was better than to the beautiful you. Even though I loved to the beautiful you as well. It had lots of commedy. And the girl actually kinda looked boyish. There characters where well put, but wat really suprised me was even though i knew the story I wasn't bored I did not even skip any scene. Overall I loved it

basically this is a simple plot chick wont have love. simple but the way it happens, funny thing is you are told everything before it happens throwout the whole move but you are still surprised, at first i didn't take it seriously, if you have watched it, you know why, everything is... i don't know how to explain it, but in the end everything made sense, for a movie with such a simple plot,it did well

This review may contain spoilers
WHAT A LOAD OF CRAP! I should have listened to all the comments, but i wondered and said "no, haha how bad can something end", OH MY LORD, WAT CRAAAPPPP!!!!!!!, If they wanted such an ending They would have started it from ep 32, OH how will i get back those wasted hours, someone give me a time machine PLZZZ ANYONE!!!, 50 eps?, oh! thank god i skipped scenes.spoilers ahead....

-Even with such a great cast and good acting,this Drama sucked, seriously it could have been summed up in three eps, I mean why go through all that necessary romance, this drama had no point
-did i forget to say ,the mainlead was changed hahaha :(, should i smile,or get angry?? this writer sucks.....
Actually this Drama would have been fine had they written it with care, its like the writer passed out at around ep 42 then woke up and continued a totally different drama, with similar names and a slightly similar story, because suddenly it rained love and people realised they loved each other. if not someone explain how this could happen , and here i thought fashion king had the worst end

okay if you are hopping for steaming romance, this ain't it, its there, but its is expressed in hugs,bummer! but its funny despite the fact that they are in war, disappointing however for me at least, i seriously hopped for more,but the lead actress is really good at acting, despite her not so manly looks,she acted the male soldier pretty convincingly, every one was good at acting,
if i were to re-watch it,i would re-watch the first five episodes only and a few more
but its okay overall

this one has suspennce right from the very start and the acting is really good Kim Hyung Joon has really really become a great actor and his kid version was no joke, i hate things with guns and excessive death which was could be put as the main point of this drama however thats not why i will never watch it again no-matter how top notch it was, the last time i was this surprised and pissed about how a drama ended was rooftop prince, even ja myunga, tragic as it was ended better. if iam to re-watch this nice yet heart wrecking drama it would be to watch Mo Il Hwa, let me just say wow song jae rim was something in this one, his character was amazing
I LOVED IT

heirs took Korean drama to a new level. the story line was great.
the acting was superb but it was sooo cheesy and the American actors who spoke English where rusty really,but the emotions were spot on i almost forgot it was a drama after the terrible actors left. it involved mystery,conflict drama etc which was good because that made it an predictable other than than lee min ho is a good actor he sets the scene really well.

The female lead in this is not your normal fragile, lead you will find your self swearing at her. That Bi**ch, you will say. But you will understand her and you shall love her just like the male lead. She gets under people's skin. To be frank I would recommend this drama just because it is refreshing
When you are told you do not belong, simply insert yourself and fit in you shall. That is the lesson in this drama probably. The drama has a lot of other mottos so to say. Life is not fair, Justice is wielded by connections and the best lawyer. Everyone in this drama is greedy (Worry not this is not a Makjang). What can I gain from you was the qn in this drama. At some point, I stopped rooting for anybody and I just watched, users and usees

Music
Meh!

Acting and Story
The Female lead's vexing nature was on point, she said everything like she meant it. Probably the most convincing crazy lawyer I have ever seen. The male lead was brilliant as well, especially his character development.
As for the plot. It's odd to describe without spoilers but, let's just say you will not doze out of boredom

okay i was disappointed but content since this is the only drama yet where i cared less about who he ended up with and more about them all being alive at the end, this is one of the few dramas where it was unclear who he will end up with. atleast for me it was. despite it being tragic, dark and mysterious it had comedy therefore you were always laughing yet saying "oh oh now what!!", i loved park hoon's character sad but always smiling,i am going to miss it. lee Jung suk is an amazing actor, oh and kang so ra was amazing too, the whole cast was anyway. overall it was SUPERB!!

Okay one, iam not normally a fun of movies since they end really fast, but this one was two hours nicely slow paced, i dint skip any scene i watched every detail and for me thats rare, the music was great,the animations were great. the story was just amazing, i dint even want it to end. if dramas where this good, i wouldnt mind them having 1000 episodes. the acting and directing of this movie can be described with one word "WOW" everyone who loves Cdramas needs to watch this,even though you dont, make this an exception.

i watched this drama because of so ji sub and wow! worth it. he is a great actor. even though i hate dramas that have a tiny bit of guns in them. see i thought it was a medical drama which, don't get me wrong it was, but in a flash of a second it turned into a war drama. yeah a real war, okay something close. but i still loved it. however i think the villains didn't get a good enough punishment. if am too rewatch this one i will probably watch the first eps before it got dark. but i loved it

what sort of ending is this seriously, i watched this drama even though the events where too serious and too strong for me , you know it lacked drama really i didn't laugh, not even once , it had a series of misfortune and ... and people crying but i painfully endured it because the acting was good. and i love clothes, i even skipped scenes just so i could say what a good ending and "??!!" it ended like that, first this drama had repetitive situations therefore if they had made 16 episodes maybe they would have added a 17th ep just to end it well and it would have been better. aigoooo!! someone please remake this... i don't know what to call it and give it a meaning full ending. oho!

Okay, you know all those things korea hides and pretends that they dont exist. This drama is like a bomb,no a tsunami that came with all the controversies and hit korea. i did not expect this at all. (not that am complaining) infact i salute the writer. if such dramas continue the next korea generation may be freer, e.g less anti-LGBT . more feminists. But why 12 eps seriously? The cast was too hudge for just 12eps. by the time it ended. Thanks to Takuya and joon jae i now know what jaji means in both Japanese and Korean. mmm...cough...
