What A Good Surprise
As the headline says, this drama took me by surprise. I had been going through quite a number of K-dramas prior and was not expecting much from this one. However, I got glued to it from the beginning right to the end. The plot was highly acceptable, the acting was superb and the script intelligent. I found myself not fast forwarding and even rewound some parts to understand the plot more, which is so unlike me.So there you have it. A story about love which started with revenge, electrifying chemistry where Ji Sung (Jo Min Hyeok) did a great job! with Hwang Jung Eun playing Yoo Jeong (lead roles). My heart pounded watching Min Hyeok's hate turning to love for Yoo Jeong.
Supporting roles were also extremely believable by Jung Soo Young (a friend made by Yoo Jeong whilst in prison) and ex boyfriend Ahn Doo Hoon who acted his mean part well. The friendship between Min Hyeok and his assistant Gwang Soo had me laughing quite a bit too. They were cute together.
The Directors had the flow of the drama plotted out really well with no boring moments and enacted in a clever way. I was tensed and looked forward to every scene as the real reason for Yoo Jeong being betrayed unfolded.
A drama worth watching and not to be missed. Ji Sung was fabulous. This would be a drama I would want to watch again real soon.

I do not usually watch melodramas but I thought I may give Secret a go (because i just finished kill me heal me and I loved the chemistry between the 2 of them) AND I LOVED IT!!! This drama is a culmination of tears, amazing chemistry and unforgettable moments which heavily provokes a substantial amount of sympathy from audiences!
OK LET US BEGIN!
STORY- 10
WOW!!! what a freken story! twists and turns at every corner! Its a confronting awakening to the fact that love as pure may not be existent HOWEVER the 2 mains don't let us down there! This was acting at its best! Clearly because i think i finished about 2 tissue boxes watching this!! It took me on a wild ride that's for sure!!
ACTING- 10
AGAIN WOW! GOD I LOVE JI SUNG X JUNG EUM! PUTS THEM AT THE TOP FOR ME!!! God they are too good as a couple! their chemistry comes so natural! Its like they're a couple in reality (but that is not going to happen because JI SUNG is taken :( )! Even the bad guys did a good job at being bad, obviously because i punch my screen whenever I i saw se yeon and do noon! So the acting was a definite 10
MUSIC-8.5
It was GREAT.....always had the ability to make me cry like a baby! But i docked 1.5 off because it just lost that happy feel...i know it's a sad drama but i just needed a bit of happiness
REWATCH-8.5
I watched this series in a day and a half! It got me hooked and I am certain i will watch it again just because they did such a good job with the chemistry! I love a arrogant, rich man falling for a not so rich, bright girl....its the romance we all hope for :D
Overall-9 :D
Its not quite a 10 because i think what let it down was the fact that it was a bit overly tragic (the ending saved it tho!! )! BUT i loved it :D
SO DO YOU WANT AN ENGAGING STORY WITH FABULOUS ACTING!
THEN WATCH SECRETS!
YOU WILL NOT FORGET IT!!!

I really like this drama, for me it is one of the bests of all time.
I think my points for story/acting/music/rewatch value/overall is enough to understand it's gorgeousness there is not much to say. If you want to watch this drama, but still has hesitation, forget all of it and watch it.
Okey at the begining, the story was so worrywart(not sure whether is is the rigt word or not I meant so sad and dark)and for some of you it is similar to Nice Guy but it is not. I watched Nice Guy and like it but let's be fair beside the revenge and prison parts they are not even close. When the story goes on, you just forget all of your bitternes and you go with the flow.
I can't even remember when I started to watch it, it was like yesterday for me.
There is nothing to say cast, Bae Su Bin is the bad guy again, but let's give the devil it's due, he made the best of the role. But still don't like him hehe :)
And Ji Sung&Hwang; Jung Eum, I love them so much, they did an amazing work with this drama.
Even musics were slow(I dont like that kind of musics so much), I relly like them too.
Overall it was FANTABULOUS!
Thanks for everyone contributed to this drama.
P.S: I wish there was a special episode, still heartbroken about it :(

The beginning was a bit odd for me, it kinda seemed forced so, to be honest, I was in dilemma if i should continue watching it. It was hard to sympathize with some characters, especially MinHyuk, and that all bothered me. But I am so glad that I have continued cause after first two or three episodes drama really starts a new pace and becomes more than interesting, you could say addicting. That pace changes as the drama goes so sometimes some parts feel a bit slow and some a bit fast, but more often it's just right.
Every person has a reason for acting the way they are, even tho it's sometimes stupid or pitiful it's the best they know. You should have in mind that characters don't know everything that we know as watchers and that their judgement is limited to that. I like that drama is written that way, it engaged me into the story even more. Actors did an amazing job in portraying their characters and their development.
What I personally really liked about this drama is it's comedy relief. Because of the heavy story it was much needed and I would say it was very well done. If some of those characters were a bit more developed it would have been even better.
Music was also fantastic, very immersive, especially symphonic OSTs. It was well placed and it filled up the silence perfectly.
There is this other thing that i minded and that affected the overall score i gave it quite a bit, and if you are going to watch it, you may notice, or have noticed like I did if you have already completed it. The editing of some scenes feels a bit off. Some scenes are prolonged by adding shots one on top of the other from other angles and that made them feel awkward, or just very wrong at times, even tho i don't think that's the feeling that they were going for. That's the main reason why i couldn't give this drama 9 or more.
With all that being said I would just like to add once again that I've really enjoyed watching it, it has a good plot and I recommend it.
