Grumpy Witch This episode was amazing. I kept finding myself at the edge of my seat with everything that happened in it.
I loved that kiss between Jae Shin and ESK. It felt like it really was a spur of the moment kiss. And omo! I hope oorie ESK doesn't die!!!!

noireangel I love how they switched bodies! Kim Joo Won is hilarious. He woke up looking so sweet and feminine. I LOL through this entire episode. I also loved the part when Gil Ra Im grabs her chest and yells "These aren't mine!" Lol!! They are really great actors.

bakakokoro The quality of the subs for this episode were really lacking. They were very distracting and definitely decreased the entertainment factor for this episode. I am very disappointed.

sarangdipity I have ever felt more hatred for a villain in my life...until now. SeNa and TaeMu should get awards for that (or at least Lee Tae Sung and Jung Yoo Mi should for good acting)
One thing I've never understood about dramas, is that why not pull the person by the wrist out of danger or pushing them and yourself to the other side when a car is trying to hit someone ._.
The idea that Bu Young was the one that got killed in Joseon instead of the Crown Princess is a good hypothesis. I hope not though, because then that would lead to a cliche ending (a person dying at the end due to car accident), plus some viewers wouldn't be surprised and get one of those BAM! endings, thus, making me (and many others) be a tad disappointed. I think, that once Yi Gak is sent back to Joseon, the real Yong Tae Yong will wake up from his coma, where no one bothered to close his eyelids.

Stars Falling from the Sky Episode 1

For me this episode was TERRIBLE! I watched this and then walked away from this drama thinking wow saved some time missing the rest of that! Luckily one day I was home sick and couldn't make it off the couch. I still needed my daily fix of drama though and this was one of the few choices available couch-side and I decided to give it a second chance.
If you have started this drama, watched this episode and said this is not for me, I will say you might want to give it a second chance. This drama is sort of like something you need to acquire a taste for. In the end I felt it was well worth it. I know this isn't really just a review of the first episode, but I wanted to give everyone a little "cheering on" if they were stumbling after watching Episode one. As Yankumi would say "fight-oh!" and continue on to episode two!

Skye-N-Rain This episode made me want to cry. No matter how good you are, if your satisfied with how good you've gotten you'll never succeed.
I can't believe Ban is going back to his city. I hope he comes back for the summer or something like that.
I also found it funny that his parents paying for his education made a difference.

I really enjoyed this episode. The cold hearted staff is finally becoming more human now that they know Shogo is here to stay!
I especially enjoyed the part where Shogo cuts his finger and the staff, in their own way, support him. My favorite character in this episode is Yonomine (I think thats his name). The waiter guy! He's awesome!

BitterSweetStunner Well this drama had reached its limit of thrill. I really hope no one's actually going to die..(at least not Lee Gak or Pak Ha) at least I hope so..
But reading other reviews as people thinking that Boo Yong was killed instead of Crown Princess, it makes me feel very sad.. How can there be a happy ending then..?? May be something happens and because of Tae Mu eventually Se Na will be killed accidentally ?? (I have no idea how, but dramas' endings can be surprising,right ? ) If Se Na would be killed accidentally then it would also explain the truth, right ? ..and then there can be a happy ending ....

It was interesting from the beginning and the actors seem to be quite good too. I'll continue watching it. I just wish it didn't take too long time for Seong Yeon to be a part of the band..

This was a decent episode. It didnt suck me in all that fast but it was decent.
I loved how Shogo laid in the rain for like 20 minutes though :P
The staff all seem like a bunch of brutes, for no reason. Hope the show gets better as the episodes go on.

Tae Mu's face expression was like totally funny as he say Pak Ha with Tae Yong.. One of my favourite scenes.
As the envelope with Pak Ha's family picture reached Chairman Jang I only wished :"Open it!" but I was severarly dissapointed. But I'm glad Pak Ha listened Lee Gak's advise at the end.
Tae Mu's going to be beat up by Tae Yong??? :D :D I hope so :P

amrita828 I actually didn't want to write a review for this episode: it seems to me I am starting to repeat myself over and over, without truly conveying what I feel for this drama.
I was prompted by a friend and fellow reviewer to do so. I love reading reviews of a show I'm obsessed with, the longer the better: it's like a thread to the story which I don't want to cut completely, and perhaps I'm not the only one.
So, since everything's been very well expressed already, I'll focus my review on the cinematography.
I'm impressed by the use of photography, light, and in general the attention to small details. This episode was no exception. It's interesting how every time there's a breath of relief in the emotions of those characters, they find themselves surrounded by greenery. The queen mother finds solace in her plants, Jae Shin is left among flowers to meet Shi Kyung, father and son Euns find a bit of a bond back by the lake banks (how beautiful that lake is) and is there that Jae Ha gives back his trust to his "ajussi". In direct contrast are all the cruel scenes, immersed in black, browns or grays, mostly played underground or in confined spaces. Great editing too, closing up on lonely Hang A lit up by the light coming in from the small cell window, and re-opening on Jae Ha watching out of an equally lit up, but very different window.
What is even more interesting is the fact that Bung Gu's the only one who wears flaring colours, mostly red, which is the colour of blood, but is also - not randomly - the colour of royalty. But because he is such a sub-specimen of a human, red on him is the exact opposite of royal: it's vulgar and gaudy like himself.
The acting... spectacular. I love it that Jae Ha exhales when he hugs hang Ah, as if without her he could not breath. He did the same on episode 17, during his dream. And I love that she is the physical, soldier one, while he's using his political and diplomatic power to win this war. Every photography of the two together enchants me, they are so beautiful together.
How awesome are all the public appearances and press conferences in this drama; it's great that they show the reaction of the viewers, the king's people, as if we could witness their growing love for their king.
Finally, I love that Jae Kang is always present, in every single episode since he died. Jae Ha looking at his portrait on the wall and finding the clue to the evidence he needs is wonderful, it's like it was his hyeong telling him.

VioletSakura Oh, gawd~ who's paying for my new heart? NUGU, NUGU???
HangAh in the prison, and they refused to treat her wound, not that I thought she needed a doctor, more like a person in her cell? haha~ And back to kickass HangAh working out and preparing to escape every moment, but she's also a human being, right? And when breaking down, the illusion moment just ripped my heart out, my heart honesty was beating in a way my chest hurt... The director should be just hanged, he's the worst type of sadist...such a tender, but at the same time desperate moment *weeps* SeungGi is making big steps into my favourites list, he was brilliant in this episode!
ShiKyung with his father... I knew this was coming, I hope it's not his way of saying goodbye, just really telling his dad he can be independent now... and, damn you, you WERE saying some kind of goodbye to you dad, weren't you, still tryig to go to China, even handing in his resignation letter, but JaeHa is a die-hard, he places ShiKyung into no-fly list to China, pfft~ naturally ShiKyung comes barging to JaeHa, who is closed in his office and doesn't answer to ShiKyung, though listens very carefully, and, damn you again ShiKyung for being a sweet-talker even in this situation, you just know what to say to break him, don't ya? Even speaking to the King in banmal? Badass! I was begging JaeHa not to give in, which he ignored of course... asking only to see JaeShin before leaving to China, and suddenly, I realized, that his question was very welcomed, as at the same second ShiKyung asked whether he could do anything he wanted (you, naughty~) and be with the princess as 2 persons, to which he gets JaeHa's badass answer 'Dude, it's man and woman!' Ha!
JaeShin's and ShiKyung's scenes would be episode stealers really, if this drama was not so stressful all over... ShiKyung urging her not to blame herself, kneeling and taking her hand in his, then their piggyback walk, his requests from her, to smile, not blame herself, and to sing again, to which he gets a peck in his cheek (did you miss his lips, JaShin???) but then he's the soldier here, right, and he doesn't miss hers * squeal* Though it's just for a moment, it's so sweet, I was melting... His coming back to right mind and apologizing... (yeah~ like she needs you 'sorry'... you'd better continue loosing control, ShiKyunga~), I was cracking, when he was talking to himself in his office... haha~
Secretary Eun gets called back to the palace... I have mixed feelings about him, but as the drama is getting to the finish, I am not worrying about his betrayal anymore, though I'd want him to suffer more...
Now the 1st BOMB of the episode, we all knew JaeHa was preparing to go to ICC (International Criminal Court) to prosecute BongGu, and I was kind of wondering under which article... so here we are with the office recorder, i JUST knew it would be of some use, when he put on that nonsensical password on it, he looks at JaeKang's picture, then the chairs in the office, and HE'S GOT IT!!!
Cut to the press-conference, where we see that all his conversation with BongGu was recorded, and BongGu was the one to start the record by saying 'chunya~?'... THAT IS SO AWESOME, I was jumping on my sofa! The whole world is watching, as well as BongGu... saying the King is his people, so by killing the King BongGu killed 50mln people, so he will be prosecuted under the Rome statute against genocides and crimes against humanity (sometimes I have use of me being a student of international affairs, ha~) now what, kiddo? We get to see BongGu's room, which is stuffed with teddy bears my height and other toys, hims sitting on his bed, like a 5 year old, with his colored socks... he's so creepy sometimes... being told to leave China NOW... Even his minion is prepared to get rid of him, though the poor guy gets caught and pees in his pants when he sees Mia entering the room... bad guys always end up like that, dude, didn't you know you were in a drama?
ShiKyung is thrown to the lions, and has to undergo tortures... ugh, give that Mia b***... I'll be pulling her hair one by one!!!
At last HangAh gets the doctor who has a phone, woho~ she calls JaeHa, who almost misses her call, and tells him her location, he's on his move, GREAT!
Oh jee... the scenes in the prison WERE BEING CUT BY MY INTERNET CONNECTION, I was going literally MAD!!!
I was weeping when JaeHa started running after hearing HangAh's voice, that was such a moment, forgetting everything and everyone he was running to his beloved one, I wasn't breathing until they locked eyes... and then the gunshot sent the sound right into my head, I'm suing them after all, JaeHa's halt, HangAh's eyes, the blood drops... fortunately they hit her foot, then JaeHa hugging her like the most precious thing in the world and weeping, while she was the one saying she was okay...kill me...
Back to ShiKyung who's still being tortured, and gets called by BongGu to refuse him to join him again and again... this is an interesting psychological game and BongGu is falling right into it...
HangAh woke up and asked for JaeHa, and then I was fzozen, all these last episode I was always saying 'badass HangAh', and forgetting that after all she's a woman who is afraid of things too... and her tears in JaeHa's embrace made me weep even more, while JaeHa was blaming himself for everything...
ShiKyung gives in and calls JaeHa (not mentioning the password they had agreed upon earlier...hmm... gets me thinking...)and asks him to go himself to see how BongGu gets arrested. There is a sudden change in JaeHa's expression, I'm not the one who noticed that, right? He sent HangAh home and went to the meeting with ShiKyung... leaving all the guards and agents, they go tot the seaside where BogGu is sitting on a throne and there is one more for JaeHa, JaeHa is shocked (or seemingly so) turns to ShiKyung who points his gun at JaeHa (me thinking, oh, how good ShiKyung looks in that suit...and cries buckets of more tears)
