I'm Starting to Get Annoyed

I'm excited that things are finally starting between Joon and Ha Na!!! They had a lot of cute moments in this episode, and I can already expect something to happen between them in the next few episodes. What I really couldn't stand in this episode are the parents. I thought the first 4 episodes was enough time dedicated to all that passive personality love crap. Every time the parents had a scene I literally wanted to scream. I like the change in generations and the focus more on the children's relationship, not the never ending dramatic, "I'm not going to tell you how I feel, or what's going on to create more drama" crap. Enough is enough.

Now I remember...

... Why I loved You're Beautiful so much. I just rewatched Episode 1 while taking screencaps for MDL, and seriously it has one of the most entertaining first episodes i've ever seen. It instantly sucked me in, and the funny parts never get old either .

Jeremy is as cute as ever

i am starting to hate all the characters...

Young Gul is acting like a selfish bastard,An Na is just a soulless bitch who is acted by a talentless actress,Ga Young is too in love with Young Gul,the girl has talent but still sticks to the bastard who keeps making only problems for her,plus is really selfish,and Jae Hyuk has loads of money but cant handle business and cant chose between two girls...

Now I Get the Beginning

The first episode opens with a scene which shows a major event. At first the writers make you believe its from the past. By the end you will understand the whys and what happened. Although this episode went by fast, I wasn't really fond of the closings for everyone. For the larger story, the ending was pretty messed up and twisty. The ending for the younger couple was okay as they were the only ones who got to be happy. I would have liked to know how much time had past though.

Just like in "You're beutiful"

Jang Geun Seuk said the same lines "I'm going to say this once." Just like in "You're beutiful" I guess on of the reasons I like this drama is because JGS. He's unreplaceable. :)

Of course the storyline is just ingenius.

The shooting was sooo cute.. Ha Na's very beautiful.. :)

Can't wait for the next episode... xD

Can't stop laughing..

Seo Juun is so funny - especially the part -If a butterfly is flying in my scene that I'm going to shoot, would I have to ask it's approval too..? (or something like that) - that was so funny.. :D :D

He expresses his feelings so purely - trying to be proud - but he's still sincere.. :)

I also hope the best for their parents.. :)

Who complicates things?

Here I am again, after watching ep.9 Gawd, I can't even think of a reason why I should still watch it if the "One" who complicates things will still be in the drama. Who would it be? Take a guess. .. He has eyeglasses on and is already old. Yeah, you got it, it's the King's secretary. He knows for a fact why the late-king passed away, he's just in the denial stage because he knows in his heart that it was his fault from the very beginning. Damn! Not only that, he even let Hang-ah and Jae-Ha feel so far with each other and let them realize that they don't support each other. My heart broke into pieces after seeing the last scene of this episode. I'm not even annoyed with that club-m man, I'm more annoyed with the old man. I hope in the next episodes, he'll realize his wrongdoings. Loooking forward to the next episodes though.

Proud or no pride at all ?

Through all this ep, the thread was "being proud or not ?" especially for our male leads. In fact, it was pretty irritating to watch them arguing with Ga Young/ Anna over things they keep doing.

They're mad because of the women's relationship but they're flirting too, so keep quiet and look around !

I'm mad at Young Gul for acting proudless and shake hands with Evil, she's so much worse than Jae Hyuk... Let's make a stake and burn Mother / daughter ! YAY !

I smiled at the last scene, so predictable but also awaited : Your moment to stand for yourself Ga Young-ie !!

What's A Drama Without A Little Romance?

This episode has to be my favorite so far. The romance between Lee Gak and Park Ha really starts to pick up. They have so many cute, romantic moments in this episode. I was starting to wonder when things were going to start being revealed between the Prince, Se Na, and Park Ha, and this episode definitely was the start. I loved the ending of this ep. It was a shocker!! This Drama is getting better and better every episode.

The clash of...

OK, so Jae-Ha is offended of being called 'trash' by Hang-Ah...it's OK little boy, I'm already used to your baby attitude when you're around Hang-Ah...(not happy AT ALL)... ad Oh, God, whoever sent the creepy secretary to deal with Hang-Ah at that moment... are you people out of your mind?

You gotta LOVE Jae-Ha being kicked by his mother and the best part, she guesses THE word Hang-Ah called him and throws it at him again and again... it's like watching a 6 year old being called a bad boy for breaking a cup (yes, Your Majesty, in my eyes you look the same way, when your immature attitude conquers your head when with Hang-Ah).

He then goes back and watches her speech at the trial, which really makes his eyes tear... the train is leaving...

Hang-Ah has to leave all her Cinderella attire, and the scene seems so slow and numb... it's like she's not only stripping the clothes, but even the knowledge, the spirit she had acquired while living in SK...and oh, she can finally break down on her father's shoulder.

Jae-Ha finally cracks the password, and yay~ for more Jae-Kang moments, I like his character SO much, and his choice of password is so sweet I can't help but cry. Jae-Ha starts doing homework again, and is ready the next morning. He finally remembers Bong-Goo's stabbing accident, and you think he's be a tiny-little-bit shocked, and the next thing you know he's smiling brilliantly and ordering secretary Eun to call the magician to the castle.

And, OH MY GOD, what a confrontation, my heart was beating so fast... The way Jae-Ha was dealing with Bong-Goo made me jump up and down, I was even laughing at times seeing his baffled face, but then his time to attack came, and the situation is changed, Jae-Ha freezes... and you'd think he would loose himself, there was a tiny moment I thought Jae-Ha would hit him, but then he starts laughing and asks not to tell such lies, about killing the king, how could a little-tiny person like Bong-Goo kill the king... and I was like 'I LOVE THIS GUY' He totally humiliated Bog-Goo, and then spat on his kicked body...S-A-T-I-S-F-Y-I-N-G!!!

The guys bonding time KYAA~ I knew Shi-Kyung was meant to become Jae-Ha's closest person.

The ending just brought me to my knees... so they had REALLY slept together... and above all Hang-Ah had a miscarriage... great...

This episode had so many events, it's too much... one of the BEST episodes yet...

This drama, if it doesn't of course trash it's ending, though whatever it does already, it will NOT get anything lower than 9 from me, will be going straight to my favorites list... (deeo breaths)...

Whoever got to the end of this review... you're my hero ^^

"Are you more beautiful up close or from afar?

That's what Lee Gak asks SeNa and I say from very, very far away...



I love Yong Seol....lol

So, it's a romance...

The earlier episodes were so all over the place that I wasn't sure if I was watching something that was mainly a political drama, a thriller, or a comedy... but this episode makes it clear that the emphasis is on romance. Sure, most of it has been done before, but I loved watching every moment of it. I loved the chemistry between Lee Jae Ha and Kim Hang Ah, and watching them one up each other. After watching them play games with, and deny their feelings for each other, the ending makes every frustrating moment worthwhile. I personal replayed the end 3x : )

Deep calming breathes...

SeNa needs to have a really horrible ending... She just can't see Park Ha happy and living well (even when she lived alone in the original rooftop room). She ruined two birthday surprises, the mom's and his....-_-;



And why couldn't he just leave alone in the blind date if he was gonna keep doing this???!?! She could at least have had a nice guy and he was cute too...lol

Better

The acting in this episode was better, the situations amusing for the most part. I do like the neighbor. And it appears that Nigh ti has more brains than he did in the Japanese version :)

open war

Wow. Another extremely emotional, superbly directed episode. I loved the little details, wonderfully highlighted by the music: the late king's recordings, Hang Ah taking off her shoes, the Queen mother cleaning the plant leaves with a vengeance.

And I love that Jae Ha is rapidly getting to the truth. While the characters are given plenty of time to develop, the general plot takes its form swiftly. War has been officially declared.

By now, it seems clear to me that secretary Eun has got a worse agenda than the simple "lie about my slip of the tongue". He may be much deeper involved than I previously thought.

I also love that slowly but steadily the king is forming a bond with Si Kyung, who is such a great character.

Wow at the ending.

Overall, an intense, heart-wrenching episode.
