The romance/love triangle is not even the main point of the story. It was just a part of their lives. This drama is about life, family, and friends.

Yeo Jin Gu and Kim Kang Woo were out of this world. Let’s leave it at that.
I think this flew by everyone’s radar cause promotion was very minimum. The production value does seem on the small side. BUT the writing, directing, and acting made up more than enough for it.

Sorry, this review is 100% biased because it was the kdrama that kicked off my addiction in 2008. Turned up on episode 1 by accident and ended up laughing my but off. It will forever hold a special place in my heart and a spot on my all time favorites. I just hate Kang Ji Hwan for leaving a bitter taste in my mouth when I see him as Hong Gil Dong because he’s such an amazing character. The storyline and directing is definitely outdated for today’s standard. But when I was watching it back then, the your father killed my father, noble idiocy, death fake out, years later reunion, and everything else was so juicy.
The ending had mixed reactions but I wouldn’t change anything about it. It was so bittersweet and I thought it was sooo ballsy to kill off the majority of the cast including the 2 leads. Their goodbye to each other was perfect, everything about this drama was perfect including Jang Geun Suk’s emotionless and wooden acting. I fricken loved it to pieces.

There’s a lot of issues and actions in this drama that will not hold up in today’s society for korean dramas. But when it aired over 10 years ago, it was just so addicting and a fun journey.
If you’re craving a tropey, 00’s drama with an annoying but ICONIC soundtrack to have a simple, fun time? This is it.

Loved the main couple and their individual characters’ journeys, but I wasn’t able to personally relate to their life problems cause I have zero dreams and ambitions. The second couple.....sooo realistic and relatable and Seol got me in the heart. I felt like I was watching my story. She was by far was my favorite character. She knew her dream of being a mom and having a family didn’t make her any less than those who dream of successful careers. And even though she’s the type of person who will always make sacrifices and put other before her, she also had the strength to stand up for herself.The only iff is when Aera and Dongman temporarily breakup. I totally understand why it happened but it bogged down the story a bit when it was close to perfect.
