I loved, loved, loved this drama!!! So different from other dramas Ive seen. It has totally changed my perception about Korean culture! It was just so real!!! I highly recommend this drama!!! Though I've got to say that Hye Jung's storyline was a little creepy, but I understand why she behaved the way she did. I so wish there was a Little Mom Scandal 3! The was so much more stories to tell!

When i first heard about this drama, i thought it was stupid. I always kept wondering why everyone loved this drama and why it was so popular. Now i understand.
This is probably one of the best dramas ever! At first the storyline sounded weird and childish (a girl dresses as a guy in all-male-school, please!) but after two episodes i take my words back. It was hilarious and yet somehow touching. Every minute was exciting and some parts i had to watch twice even tree times :)
The actors were incredible! They are cute and hot. One of my favorites was the dorm leader Nanba Minami (played by Mizushima Hiro). Horikita Maki was ones again great in the leading role. And Ikuta Toma was so good and funny. Every character was carefully planed and all actors did really good job.
I haven't read the manga and i probably won't, because i loved this drama and this is enough :)
One minus was the music. Well there wasn't it. Music had such a small part, which is kind of sad because japanese music is really good (not just j-pop). But on the other hand the silence was better choise.
Anyone who has any doubts about this drama, i recommend this to all of you who want to laugh out loud (and wathc some really hot guys :D). This really was extremely magnificent drama.

This is not an average "virus infection" series.
The story is very good with lots of details. You have to see all the episodes to understand everything, everyone and to catch up with the storyline. They selected the best actors/actresses for playing the characters. Along the happenings you'll get confused by them and don't know who the good and bad guys anymore. It's just amazing! I didn't get bored during the episodes because everything happens so fast and there's no stop.
By the way I haven't read the manga, but still love this drama. It's a very special series of investigation stories. It's very exciting!
For the rewatch value I gave only 5 because I don't think there's any meaning of watching it again there's a lot of thing that won't make a great impression on you for the second time.

I really loved this series! The story was unique, the acting was really good, and the music was really catchy. The only reason I wouldn't rate it perfect is there were a couple little parts that dragged. But otherwise, really good! The supporting characters were all great and the plot twists kept me guessing. My absolute favorite part, though, was No Min Woo as Dong Joo. That man is extremely nice to look at and a really good actor on top of that. He made his character really sympathetic and I kept waiting with bated breath for him to show up again. *happy sigh*

Anyway, I really enjoyed this series and will probably rewatch it eventually. ^_^

I'm a Latina living in the United States. I was fed telenovelas and later sitcoms for as long as I can remember. I just started watching Asian Dramas, maybe 1 1/2 ago. I have to admit that I suffered from culture shock. The characters were so conservative, just touching hands seemed like a big deal. There were really no kisses in the dramas I watched, it was more like 'pecking'. The candy style type of girl was pretty much everywhere. This,of course is a over generalization; but it took some getting used to in order to accept and eventually understand and more thoroughly enjoy this whole new world.

What does this have to do with 'Little Mom scandal'?. The only reason this background nonsense is relevant is because this was another shocker- but in reverse!
I'm so used to seeing all of this lack of physical contact,virginal characters, spoiled chaebols, etc... there is really none of that here.
This drama would not feel out of place in a telenovela (it would probably seem too mild :), or show in the US.

This drama deals with strong subjects such a sex in a young age, sex outside of marriage, teen pregnancy, abortion, dating age gap, the practice of golddiggers and much, much more. Even though this drama deals with strong issues, it is done in an appealing, tasteful (as it can be, for the issues its dealing with), realistic and compelling way.
I think the acting is done well, the editing as well. It has a good pace. This is absolutely not a rom-com, but is not a melodrama either. It has a good balance. It does not over dramatize any issue, or does it take it lightly either.It had me hooked from episode 1 and I finished the first 8 episodes in 2 days.

I would recommend this drama if you are up for something different. There is more skinship and sex scenes (not explicit)but it's still there, than what most people are used to. I find it worth watching. There is a second season I'm about to start right now. Enjoy!

Even though I dropped this wonderful drama for a while, I finally took time to watch the whole thing. And God, it was so amazing. This is absolutely one of my favorite drama, so far. I loved it so much!
So, on to the review!

Story:
Well, I'm sure I could've given it a 10, since I enjoyed it so much, but think about it... this story is kind of original, after all. I mean, I think it was somehow original, but still. Take for example: You're Beautiful, Coffee Prince... you know, this whole 'girl-dressed-like-boy-meets-guy-friends' Not that I am tired of this plot, but it just gave me the "Oh, I've seen this before?"
Yet, again, I think this was a different and refreshing story.

Acting/Cast:
One word is amazing. I could almost understand every character, as they acted so wonderfully! To be honest, I started watching this drama because of Song Joong Ki/Gu Yong Ha (man, I adore him in the drama and in real life too) But I found myself falling for Sun Joon/Yoochun, Yoon Shik(Yoon Hee)/Min Young, Jae Shin/Ah In and almost all of the characters as well! At the end, I even rooted for In Soo, the 'bad guy' and his friend.
Oh, I forgot to mention Cho Sun. She really did a super great job as a supporting role! In short: everyone did an awesome job!

Music:
If anything that I love about Kdramas, then it's the Music. Although I did enjoy the OST in this drama, it didn't give me the... feeling. Take for example 'The Princess's Man's OSTs. I found myself crying, just listen to Baek Ji Young's "Today, I love again."
Anyway, it was good!

Rewatch Value:
Of course I would re-watch this drama... next year, maybe? Not because I don't like it (duh, didn't I mention that I loved it? ^^)but because I'm not a person to re-watch things. But this drama, is a must re-watch! It'll be worth it!

Overall:
I gave this a 10. Because I really enjoyed the whole thing. I cried, I laughed, I even screamed at my screen and cursed because, sometimes, I got annoyed! This drama gave me so many feelings, I can't even express.

Something I really, REALLY loved about Sungkyunkwan scandal is the bromance. Yong Ha, Jae Shin, Yoon Shik, Sun Joon... they made my day so bright! And of course, the romance between the main couple. I loved it. But I must say, that I hoped for a little Yong Ha/Jae Shin moment, because I just adore the way they love each other as friends.

This story is really well-written, so I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I did, and still do!

I watched this for Kame, and he did a pretty good job, but not good enough to make up for everything else. The plot, effects, and most of the characters were just way too cheesy. I didn't feel emotionally attached to any of it and most of the time when plot points got revealed it was like "Oh... that's it?" And I really didn't like the ending. On an up note, I thought Kame, Anne, and the little boy did a pretty good job with what they had. Their interactions were what kept me going through the end.

I really wish I hadn't watched this special. I got all emotionally worked up about the ending of the series only to be dragged through all the same junk over again! It just made me really sad. I also felt like there was a tiny bit of inconsistency in a few of the characters and that bugged me. I would recommend just sticking to the ending of the series and forgetting about the special. Not worth it.

I watched this for Wu Chun and he's the ony thing that kept me going till the end. It was really cheesy and I found most of the characters irritating. (Wu Chun and Calvin were okay.) I didn't sympathize with the main girl and the plot twists didn't do anything for me. There are a few cute and funny moments, but they were few and far between. Worth watching once if you're a Wu Chun or a Calvin fan.

I watched this because Jerry Yan was the only thing I liked about Hot Shot, so I wanted to see more of him, and because I really liked Ella in Hana Kimi. The show started out really cute and watching the relationships develop was fun, but about half way through everything just crashed. It became too love-triangly and melodramatic and I found myself really irritated with the secondary characters. If the second half were more up to snuff with the first, I would've really loved this series. Still, Jerry and Ella did a really good job, so it's worth watching once if you're fans of them.

First off, I have to say that I don't really like sports movies/shows. So the plot wasn't really interesting to me. Also, I watched this show for Wu Chun, and even though he has third billing, he's hardly in it. So, I didn't like the plot, I didn't really connect with the characters, I got bored really easily, and I also HATED the super random ending. The only things I enjoyed were Wu Chun's cameo-like parts, some of Show Luo's funny parts, and Jerry Yan's amazing acting. Those are the only things that kept me watching till the end.

I have this on DVD so that shows how much I like it. It's a really great sequel, even better than the first part I'd say. (But that may just be because MatsuJun has better hair in this one... Kidding!) All the characters were still amazing and kept developing and getting even better. And there were some new characters that were really great too. There were new obstacles that popped up without being irritating or overly dramatic. Overall, a great continuation of an amazing series!

I starting watching this series because of MatsuJun and ended up really loving it! It's the only drama I have on DVD, so that's saying something. The acting is really good, the characters and plot are really interesting, and the humor is well balanced with the serious parts. Overall, a really great drama that I could watch over and over again.

You're Beautiful is my favorite Asian drama. Not that's it's perfect. It's just so enjoyable to watch! It's really funny yet touching, the music is great, and everyone portrays their characters really well. (Even if some are a bit more eye candy than they are good actors. ^_^) It's a show that I could watch over and over again and I even liked it enough to buy my own deji-toki. I highly recommend this drama!

Honestly I couldn't figure out what the big fuss about this drama was. Okay so the guys were eye candy and Jung Il Woo was really hot. But that cannot possibly make up for the lack of a story or an actual plot. Things kept happening between Chi Soo and Eun Bi which made no sense whatsoever and there was obviously no logic to a brat like Chi Soo suddenly developing feelings for Eun Bi, who seemed to have no redeeming qualities except knowing how to play volleyball and acting like a klutz. The only saving grace in this drama is Lee Ki Woo, whose character was quirky, funny and charming. Ba Wool and Hyun Woo's act also provided the much needed comic relief from time to time, and made this slightly watchable.
