"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.

Fire..

I love that different kind of fire between them. I guess that's the opposite from their parents. But that's what makes it interesting.. I can't get over. Definitely one of the best dramas I've ever seen.. :)

I cried A LOT

This episode was SO SWEET and SO SAD.

I'm glad Dong Wook told him.

As I watched this I just run to my sister and told her through the tears that "You have to see that.. It's sooo cood."

I'm really curious about the story of their chidren...

Pure love..

My cup of coffee..

On really really sweet episode - the one you can just enjoy.

I love that little hesitation between them, as a new couple, yet they're determined. That's sweet..

Extremly catching..

I just watch and hope - when will he say her the truth....

I bet it really is hard to choose if you are willing to lose a friend, but I'm sure he'll finally confess.

Really emotional episode.. Exactly for me.. :)

Caught my attention..

This drama seems to be very interesting from the first scenes.

In Ha has a really good personality,he's just a bit too shy :D

But as fo Jang Geun Suk it's a great change for the characters he usually plays.. :)

Both main actors are really attractive and nice. I could say that this storyline does capture the watcher's heart because there're no "bad" characters. They are all good people, whose feelings seems to be just a bit messed up.. :D

The painful truth...

Did I ask for a sharp object for last episode? I changed my mind... give me spoon... it'll hurt more if I stab Sae-Na with a spoon...

Though the episode was mostly filled with three musketeers saving the moments for Park-Ha, I hate to see her like that...

Sae-Na actually got kicked out of her house (1 point to you Mr. Tae-Mu's dad, hah~), but does everything bad for her always end up more worse for Park-Ha... I hate that too...

Aand... Park-Ha confessed her feelings for Lee-Kak... (after trying so cutely hard to get rid of his phone to which she sent the confession)... Waiting for his reaction...

To conclude: we are officially in the middle, so I'm starting to expect the pieces of the riddle to slowly get themselves on their places... (guys and girls, pieces, don't disappoint me!)

A Great drama from the start...

I loved this drama from the first episode and it has yet to disappoint me.



I love the continuation of the In Na-Yoon Hee story. It's still as good as when it started. I got goosebumps when he hugged her, like he wasn't going to ever let her go again. And omo, why must she always be sick? I feel like they will have a tragic ending...again.



I feel like strangling Hye Jung sometimes. She really needs help. She's obsessed with In Na.



One of my favorites scenes is when Joon tells to himself: "You are so cool." It was cute and funny and I fell a little bit more in love with him. I love it when he looks playful/naughty.



Another was the photo-shoot. And when he said he would take another pic and she smiled at the camera and he stopped in his tracks.

Up close and personal!

Jia Hua spends a lot of time invading Xi En's personal bubble, but it's funny because she always gets so flustered. Of course they spend more time bickering, however it's not overplayed and fun to watch.



Also more workers are hired at the shop, completing the pentagon of handsome male workers. At this point more, Coffee Prince similarities are cropping up, but I'm still hoping this is not a subtle remake. Hopefully the writer will mix up the storyline a little more.



So far though, I'm enjoying this drama. I like seeing Vanness Wu's playful side. He's had so many serious roles, and this is a nice break from that.

Butterfly-butterfly... fly to the right girl... don't fly to the fox...

Oh, God... somebody give me something sharp... I'll go crazy if I don't stab that B*** Sae-Na... she is the WORST type of human being... and the her worst feature is that she thinks everybody else is like her too... (sorry to break it for you, girl... but not everybody's a life sucker like you...) I just hope everybody leaves her in the end, and she's left alone with her hateful self. I was so ecstatic, when Tae-Mu's father discovered her character, SO DAMN SATISFYING... though I'm guessing there is going to be a time, when the demons are going to join forces for power and money...

Ugh... that idiot Lee-Kak, TREAT PARK-HA BETTER, YOU DUMBASS!!! She's the one, THE ONE, you get it???

I'm still curios what she saw in the history book... ugh... (went to watch the next episode)...

P.S. OMG, is that YOOCHUN singing Baek Ji-Young's 'Long Time Has Passed'??? Love his voice!!!

Some Tedious but Necessary Moments

This episode was alright. I believe this one was more about putting the characters in place, and setting the plot to rolling. Jia Hua is introduced to his past, but of course he is unaware. A test of the taste buds determines whether he will be owner of the store or a worker. Other than that nothing much went on in this episode.
