It has amazing story and unpredictable plot.
It's also fun to watch this. If you like "catch me if you can" movie, u will love this.
It's so fun to watch until you don't know about time,
There is no fillers or unnecessary plot at all.
All is well. Good job to the writer. Salute. Respect.

It's fun, cute, funny, but it has a deep meaningful story too. The most importantly it's short.
I cannot watch too lengthy drama anymore, i think i am just too tired, i need good drama that does not make me feel awful and feel forced to finish watching it. K-drama nowadays are full of fillers, i can't take it anymore, need to choose a good one, i don't have much time :D Anyway, this is a short drama with good story, i love it.

What i like about this drama:
1. It has a very kind hearted male lead, OMG, i think this is the best male lead character in k-drama!!!
He is so sweet and he loves to help others, not only to his woman but to everyone.
I always adore this kind of character even in real life!! He is also very matured that's why he can get along with a 39 years old woman :D
2. There is no evil villain who tries to kill main leads
3. Very light romantic comedy very fun to watch
4. So many sweet stuff between the main leads
5. Damn funny especially in the beginning of this dramas
6. I like strong successful female lead with a killer personality like ji yeon
7. OMG park seo joon is damn sexy and hot here
8. Their chemistry is all over the place!! I don't find their age gap is weird because their chemistry is so strong and everything seems natural to watch.
9. Hot sizzling kiss between main leads, i never really like kiss in kdramas because it seems awkward and forced but their make out scene is damn hot, natural yet funny
10. There are many lessons to learn from this drama because it's quite relatable
What i don't like:
Almost nothing that i don't like, maybe if i want to be nit picky, perhaps the middle of the episodes when the photojournalist return, it's a bit draggy, i'm also a bit sad coz there are so little funny moments, but i do understand her decision coz i also have a friend who took back her ex despite of so much chemistry between her and her current bf, coz in r/s we need to think about logic and reality not only heart, but anyway the r/s with her ex is not working out well for her since it has become as dry as salted fish and my friend learns her lesson well, in my friend's case, she lost the current bf already, and she cannot have the same feel with her ex thus she broke up with him. Too bad coz i never seen her happier with guys other than her current bf that time, i also dun understand why she choose her ex back, i guess r/s is complicated. She wants to get married soon coz her ex already proposed her and wanted to get married.
In this show, dong ha still wait for her, it's so sweet, i don't know whether in real life there is a guy like that though. I think it's too good to be true hahaha.
All in all, i like this show.

Why do those rich kids and families really underestimate others like that? It does not make sense. Is it still a saeguk era? with kings and concubines? hahahahah. I really dislike how the chairman tried to control his maid's daughter life. LIKE HE IS SO POWERFUL AND ALL!! Ask her to cut ties with his son, blackmailing her, if i were her i will just report it to the police. I will just study hard to become successful, get scholarship, don't need his support. Dun need to study at the awful school like that. Cheee!!!
I just hate everything about this drama and i just realized that the writer of this drama is the same with secret garden, DOTS, no wonder i hate the storyline so much, i could not bring myself to watch this rubbish. I dropped it.

But it feels kind of different and quite funny yet not too ridiculously funny. The situation is very real, like in the normal world where it's not only talking about couple love r/s, it's also talking about friends r/s, family r/s, colleague r/s, it's just complete, that;s why it's not boring at all. The pace is just nice, not too slow and not too long. It's quite unpredictable too, as i didn't think that the plot will get quite serious in the middle of the series. It also explain why certain people behave that way. People always have their own story and background to begin with, so we can understand each other more.
The protagonists are not perfect too, normally in other drama, the protagonist seems very perfect and the plot is cheesy, but this drama is not like that at all, it teaches us about hard-work to love people surround us, Love is not always like in fairy tale where people will live happily ever after, we need to put effort in order to love. Sometimes we also need to priorities others in order to love. So this story is very real. That's why i like this very much.
It certainly worth your time on watching this drama. It's not too heavy until u want to scream dying thinking about the plot, nor it is too light until u feel bored. Not at all, it's just nice to watch it after workday. It will enlighten your mood with it's quirky plot and witty jokes.

I also like how this movie turns the second lead female to be friend with the first female lead.
Love rival doesn't mean making people into bitch hahaha.
actually the story is so typical, rich chaebol likes poor girl. Nothing new, just that the girl is pretty strong.
I like all the acting here, everything seems natural. I watch this drama because I like Ji Sung.
But all the castings here are wonderful, especially president Cha hahaha.
But towards the end of drama, it's getting boring and annoying, it just dragged. Like typical drama, there is a big misunderstanding, poor communication between them, I actually have skipped 4 episodes for those unnecessary mellow drama, i just hate the sadness and tears that caused by misunderstanding, it's just unimportant, i skipped and just watch the last episode hahaha, and just read the recap in between when i dun understand. Coz i don not want to waste my time watching a very lengthy kdrama that has pointless plot just to lengthen the drama and episodes.

I don't know why i only watch it now.. haha silly me. Luckily i decided to watch this, coz i read the rating is not good so i judge it, but now i watch it and omg, i dunno what's the heck is wrong with the rating? The story is good! I laughed, i cried, i worried, etc. It has a good plot, haiz! I am gonna miss this drama! I have binge watched it for two days hahaha, I am gonna watch it again, yes! it's that good! Very recommended!
I LOVE ALL THE ACTORS HERE! They have their own story and backgrounds, THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS THERE IS NO STUPID FLASHBACKS hahaha! I just hate flashbacks just to fill airtime, but this one doesn't have it and I LIKE IT!
Yes, i am gonna edit my other drama's review coz this one is perfect and not comparable to other drama! Thank you healer, u have kept me entertained!!
PERFECT SCORE 100/100!!!

However, for some people they might find it boring hahaha. it does not have suspense at all that makes u super curious. For me, i don't really wait for the next episode nor i need to binge watch it, coz yes, it has slow plot, coz it's a drama that is about everyday life. So i just enjoy it every now and then until i finish it. but it's a wonderful ride.

I would like to thank the writer to write such a beautiful and real story of friendships, now i know that k-drama writer can write not only about romance, but also friendship and difficulties during wars. Why is this friendship so beautiful and heart touching? It's because the relationship last for a century, it's talking about forgotten past, bittersweet memories. Especially when they can be happy and content through tough times, during Japanese occupation period. There is no real evil villain in this story either. Their conflict is not human-made but more of the condition of the wars.
I like all the phrases that the writer wrote, especially in the ending when Hwi Young said "Please write our story on my behalf, Please write that we had lived through these rough times, Even when we were faced with a dark reality, We all lived diligently, and absorbed the pain, We found hope in despair. We found happiness in danger. We all loved and fought to our utmost ability”
I felt goosebumps when i heard that phrases, i mean, i can never imagine how to live in a country where a war happened and even during tough times, human can stay together and bond deeply with each other. It's really our privileges to live freely like now and we should respect people who fought for our freedom in the past. They have sacrificed so many things for us, although they are not perfect.
This kind of story really touches my heart, i always like the story that's related to history especially wars. Such as Schindler's list, life is beautiful, gone with the wind, etc. It's just very nostalgic. I feel like i can relate to all of them in the past.
Although this is a story about revolutionist, it doesn't talk too heavy on politics and wars. It focuses more on relationships and how human can thrive despite of difficulties. That makes me appreciate this more. It also has many humors, it's not heavy, this is one of the rare k-dramas that i am really looking forward to finish it without getting bored at all. I never skipped even one second, honestly I keep repeating the scenes and the phrases that i like. It also teaches me a lot of stuffs. Kudos to the writer, u have written a story that i will still remember until a very long time.
ACTING/CAST
What can i say? THEY ALL BRILLIANT!!! I mean, it's very seldom to watch a drama that all the casts have been delivered such a top notch acting skills and Chicago Typewriter nailed it BIG TIME! From Yoo Ah In, Lim Soo-Jung, Ko Gyung-Pyo, Kwak Si-Yang to all of other casts, they all amazing! Can stir up emotion in me. Okay, I admit it that i cried a lot when i watched this show towards the ending, the only other k-drama that made me cry was signal hahaha. They all amazing in delivering their emotion in their scenes so i caught off guard and cried like hell.
Music
10/10!! It perfectly sync with all their scenes in the past, it just makes me more emotional by listening to the song, even now when i am listening to the ost, the scene is still replaying in my mind.
Rewatched Value
I swear i never re-watched any TV shows before coz it's time consuming, but i re-watched this hahahahahah, because somehow i still miss them and i want to go to that 30's era again. The backdrop is gorgeous, the costumes, the musics, ahh i miss everything .
Maybe it's just me, i don't know, maybe i am biased, i don't know, but i like everything in the drama.
The story, the casting, editing, music, EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING!

I love vigilante show
I like this show. Initially, I don’t want to write the review but i read some of the reviews here and I’m gonna defend this show. Well the story is about evil vs evil, so you don’t need to expect the main character to be pure hearted like super hero, even the female lead is also savage. This is what i like about this show. No bullshit. Some people said they are out of character or they are too much in punishing the criminals, I don’t think so. For criminals who bribed the whole government to do evil deeds, they cannot punish them in the normal ways coz justice doesn’t work for them, in fact the whole justice system has been serving their evil deed.While the show is not perfect, it doesn’t deserve a 5 or a 6. The show is really funny, i enjoyed watching it, it’s rare for me to enjoy kdrama show right now, as i am bored with the same formula and tbh i am in my kdrama block right now. So this show is quite surprising that it’s still fresh and funny for a total of 20 episodes. Definitely a keeper!

Heartwarming story about family and their hardships
Hmm.. where do i start...This show has 10 episodes and each episode has different story about each person that has moved to heaven (passed away). It also has a bigger main story that will unfold slowly. The epic one is in the last episode. It’s so heartwarming, i want to cry. This story taught me a lot to learn that we must stay grateful no matter how hard our life is because everyone has different history, we as people should try to communicate better, be more understanding, don’t assume anything until we clarify the fact tru communication. Don’t stay bitter and childish because everyone has their own reason to do something.
It’s not everyday that we get this kind of story. Not sure why the rating is not that high. This show is practically one of the top kdramas in my opinion.
Netflix original series kdramas never disappoints me.

He fight against violation of human right and after some time, he become president of Korea. (He was also the first president who visit North Korea for peace.) Anyway, as a context of this movie, I understand it's very hard to fight against country's dictatorship, when u are an idealist, and fight for common people, many powerful figures will go against you.
This is such a real story on what happened in our world, not only in south korea, but in other countries as well, those with power and money can do anything they like. It's such a rare thing to have someone like this main lead who has a heart to help innocent people. Although u cannot always win, but it's worth to fight for... argh very sad, anyway it's a recommended one.
I gave it 9.5 only because 2 hours do not seem enough to explain how awesome his character is. he should have been given a trilogy. After i know and read this Ro Moo-Hyun's life, i sincerely respect him. It's a true story that's why i like it most!! I always love a true story :,)
