Blood bath

This episode has quite a bit of gore so be careful that bothers you. The fight scenes are decent. It has the most violent cat fight I have ever seen in a K-drama. The plot is progressing nicely. The eye candy factor is there as well. The love rhombus (thanks sleepy :)) is still a mess. I look forward to the next episode.

Epic tragedy, but i'm loving every moment of it

This drama took it's time building up just the right amount of backstory to make sure you feel every tragic moment. This is the point of the story where we are right back where it started at the beginning of the series. This episode left me shocked, & depressed, but gave me just enough hope to have me eager to watch the next episode. I have no idea what to expect, and that's why I love this drama. And kudos to the cast for making it all 100% believable.

AWWWWW!!!!

I knew she wasn't going to win but this was totally unexpected. THE MOTHER HAS A HEART!!! WHAT??!!!! I don't remember that! I'm soo psyched to see the the next seasons and movies. This is so much better than the Korean ending. It has more feeling to it. I love how all 4 boys now have GFs/potential gfs. With the Korean version I was like what about the dude from T-Max he needs a girl as well. Ahhhhh LOVE LOVE LOVE!!

oh, you smart boy...

Boong Do is slowly becoming one of my favorite male characters ever. Throughout this episode, the way he learns about aspects of the modern makes me smile because, though he depends on Hee Jin for some things, he is also figuring much out on his own.



And, of course, his smile is just too cute!^^



I can't wait to see where this goes after Hee Jin told everyone that "He's my boyfriend!"

Fight For Love <3

You show her girl!! Makino is awesome, I love her standing up to Tsukasa's mom like that. She honestly is one of my favorite drama ladies, actually taking a stand for herself and her friends. I love how Tsukasa and his sister stand up to their mom as well. I honestly don't know how this lady got a wife and two kids. She has no feelings of love whatsoever... Sakarako is getting on my nerves, I don't like how her part of the story ended yet she keeps coming back up. Not to be pessimistic but things aren't looking too good for Makino and this T.O.J. contest. One more episode to go!

Chaos

This episode doesn't contain a lot of action or fight scenes, but it does contain key elements for the development of the plot. The love triangle is becoming a mess as a fourth member is added. I was happy to see the reappearance TOP's character (I do like my eye candy).

Aww she loves him too!! <3

I love that this version doesn't take too long on the Rui and Makino relationship. I actually ended up liking Rui in this version. In the Korean version I wanted to hit him. Best part: the whole bromance fight/ bonding scene, sooo cute

Couple or Not?!

Ok so it's at this point in this story where I get confused about Makino's feelings. She seems to like Domyouji but at the same time she likes Rui... And it's at this point in the story where I start disliking Rui as well because it's obvious that Makino is his rebound girl. Favorite scene: When Domyouji gets a call from Makino asking him out on a double date and he yells NO!! and he hangs up all happy just because she asked him out on a date. I was like LOL and WTF at the same time. Worst part: Any time the stupid mother is onscreen, the lady is pure evil I tell you. For some reason in this version of the drama I can bear with Makino's family. I don't know how long that'll last, I usually ended up fast forwarding through scenes with her family with the other versions of this drama I watched. Love this version so much. I love how there is hardly any scenes where you're like... Why am am I watching this... It's not relevant to the story at all... But I hope that this drama incorporates the whole love story with Makino's best friend and Domyouji's playboy friend. I liked that side plot a lot in the Kdrama. :)

It's Awesome when some1 believes their own lie this much.

I am laughing so hard b/c the prince totally believes he is the reincarnation of Tae Yong! I don't think ne1 could have pulled this off better than Micky. The comical arrogance is the best. & seeing the serious side is also pretty good. Chick needs to go ahead & tell every1 that he was the Panda. That part is taking 4-ever 2 happen.

Lee Gak is falling for her..

Cute episode, Lee Gak is almost forgetting Se Na. I hope it continues this way. I love the chemistry between Lee Gak and Park Ha, I hope there will be more romance soon enough ;)

I think I am done!

I think I am done watching this until it is completed. I rly thought maybe it will get better in the next epi, but it didn't. I can't take it anymore. I will finish this drama only b/c I have invested so much time in it alrdy! Then again I may not even finish it if I read the reviews & they don't get better. This drama has just dragged on and on. I can't tell who has real feelings for who except Ga Young. The rest r just users. @ this point I am just wanting Ga Young to just leave them all & find a way to make clothes away from all these ppl. I just don't know what the heck is going on here!!!! Nothing is happening. I bet this is one of those drama's where it is all slow then the last 2 epi's everything happens in them that prolly would have taken like 4 epi's to explain appropriately. I am going nuts!

So cute

I loved those scenes with Park Ha and Lee Gak. -.-

There seems to be a big mess with that woman's daughters but I'm sure that it will clear up. There has to be a reason for that.

Anyways, can't wait for the solution.

You go girl!!

Finally, a female lead to my liking. She doesn't just sit quietly whining about her misfortunes: she takes the initiative. Well done, Hee Jin!

Her poor manager will have a hard time from now on. Not only her protegee has publicly declared she has a bf, but this bf happens to be a little older than his looks suggest. lol



The confrontation between Boong Do and Jo was hilarious. She questions him about his background, education, family and he doesn't even need to lie!! Haha



I love the juxtaposition of past and present as it is presented here. When a scene in the present is interrupted by one in the past, it looks like they are happening at the same time: while Doong Gu walks on modern Jeju, the guards look for him in the same place.

It's as though past and present were both existing at the same time, as if they were separated by space, rather than time.



Which obviously raises the most classic of questions: since Boong Do didn't die as he was supposed to, is the future going to be changed forever?

Eun Shi Kyung was really awesome

I agree with previous reviewers about Eun Shi Kyung.

The way he acted was absolutely fantasting.

This episode ended too suddenly, I was watching them doing their teamwork, forgetting that this episode is going to end soon at an interesting part.

There has been better episodes, but it was still interesting enough. Looking forward to the next.. ;) (like always )

Can not resist that cuuute smile...

So weird, Boong Do isnt the most jawdroppingly gorgeous man but maaaaan my heart does not stop fluttering when he smiles! Think the plot is getting along really well. The Joseon and modern day scenes compliments each other. The Travel guide to teach Boong Do the ways of modern life was quite ingenius aha! And you just learn exactly how clever he is - in the Joseon era and in the 21st century. But no matter how clever he needs a ditsy actress to save the scholar from trouble :) just love that about it. Looking forward to the next episode!
