i like Lee Ki Woo more than Jung Il Woo, i think Jung Il woo relies a bit too much on the hair style. Lee Ki Woo is nicer to look at… hehehe…. just compare Lee Ki Woo bare chest (scene after shower) with Jung Il Woo bare chest (scene in the swimming pool)… but that’s a personal taste ;-p

personal taste, that’s all – i like lee woo better than jung il woo, while others prefer il woo more. i dont like pretty boys, perhaps others prefer pretty boys. i like male who looks “male”, not pretty… hehe… especially not man who seems to take hours to do his hair…hehe, because then he might take longer time in dolling himself up than me, the female.. hehe.. and i dont think i like men who take hours just to doll himself up, kind of annoying narcist to me, sorry…hehe, besides, somehow, i dont really like il woo’s eyes. and somehow i think i dont really “commend” his acting too. in the 49 days, the Moon that embraces the sun, and in this one – he played 3 different characters, each with a different context, but i still could somehow “see” the same “character”… so it is more like, i see “jung il woo acting as….” instead of seeing “the storys’ character”.. it seems to me he doesnt really blend into each character, he doesnt “become” the character itself, he is just “acting” it… but thats’ my personal opinion.

Ugh…. terrible. This show is terrible. I watch until ep14 (even though my mind checked out some times between ep. 4 and 5)… but I was just so bored I couldn’t even force myself to finish watching to the end. I wasn’t even the tiniest bit curious about the ending or what happened to these characters… that’s how little I grew to care this show. My tolerance for this kind of idiocy ran out at ep14, so that is where I stopped watching. Yeah, the characters were funky and fun… and I like them on an individual level… but it was the boring, predictable, generic plot and cliche kdrama tropes that killed my patience. I tried… really tried to like this drama. The fact that I stuck it out till ep.14 is proof that I gave this more than a fair a chance to change my mind. But I just couldn’t make myself like it. It’s stupid, plotless, and has nothing of substance. This show is fluff… mindless, shallow fluff.

this drama is really cool! DONT READ ANY FURTHER IF YOU ARE YET TO WATCH IT! it takes a lot of the usual kdrama cliches: older woman-younger man,a birth secret,cohabitation,love triangle,one girl surrounded by cute guys running a cafe and teacher-student chemistry and manages to create new and hilarious ways of dealing with them with very little angst or self pity. Even the toilet humour works in this one!

LOL. LOL. LOL. even though the story line is very simple it is actually very enjoyable to watch. it is soooo funny.
i never thought it would be this good knowing about the low ratings and the negative comments on this drama above. i enjoy idiotic japanese dramas and surprisingly koreans have captured that genre for this drama.
try to watch this! just enjoy it and dont expect depth. im sure this drama will surprise you in a good way. watch now!

I watch it all, it very funny, althought still something that bothers me and the fact is that he is a minor and she is an adult. At the end lost the comic and freshness that hook me up at the beggining.
