Kae In’s secretary gf is worse than the worst enemy. She tries to steal her bf not once, but twice. And the woman just doesn’t give up. I want to slap her face. What a disgusting person!
August 18th, 2011 at 8:24 pm
The secretary gf is the only one who provides conflict in this story, and That is its weakness. The plot is too thin.

rom-com story…funny funnydrama, I love it too.

Funny and refershing! LMH delivers great acting! Love him!
August 22nd, 2011 at 12:28 am
LMH and SYJ are beautiful and their acting is swell, but the plot sucks, esp. from ep 10 onwards. I keep ff in ep 10, 11, 12, and find that it can’t go forwd fast enough! The secretary ex-gf is a pain in the ass; so is the rich ex-bf. SYJ’s char is all quite dim-witted at times, such that she invites disaster
And the show is so stupid in portraying them desiring each other while sleeping under the same roof, but have no physical relationship. That is so artificial. If you want to be chaste, don’t show them have wet dreams of each other. If you do, then go ahead and say they have sex. It’s the 21st C. Not that big a deal. It’s really irritating to be neither here nor there.

I’ve only seen one episode and it was so boring. The lead female character had no depth. I can’t think of one reason that would make me want to watch her. However, the male lead is interesting and makes you want to watch to figure him out.
