Heart breaking scene= Sj visit to Sk house and the time Sk come back.( oh oo..two feeling appear on my mind..really want to laugh so badly Sj acting at the same time my heart can’t stand and a ton of tear drop from my eye for Sk :’( )

@624 and 625
if you can’t watch from dramacrazy.net, you can try the facebook account of Princess Cruz 1. she’s downloading all the episodes a day after the series was shown in korea.

correction pls, not all the episodes, “the episode” only.

Cheongdam dong Alice started this weekend on our local Korean station and I am absolutely loving it!! Awesome characters and since I am a Park Shi Hoo fan I can’t stop laughing at his portrayal of Jean Thierry Cha and of course Moon Geun Young is brilliant in her role, as usual. At first I could not picture these two as a couple, (they aren’t yet), but good actors can pull you into the story and make it believable, and these two have done exactly that. Can’t wait to see how it plays out!

great job PSH si … I just lol n lol this ep for you …. your funny chart is good .. I like it .
yoon jo … I know what u feel after seen SJ carrying SK on his shoulders … but I guess u not become SK reval here , that would be interesting coz I don’t want to hate u! I like the story of you life n it’s already makes me more sympathy .
oh ya Mr Cha …I like when u ‘tripping ‘ n dance w SK fam !! hahaha it’s cute

Ep 9 is Daebak! The 2 weeks wait is really worth it . Happy to see Se Kyung feeling so guilty and tormented which significantly redeemed herself in my eyes. I start to root for her again when she told God that she will not hurt SJ from now onwards if God forgave her action earlier. Also happy to see that she got her spunk back and willing to fight TH for her love.
So many sweet scenes of our OTP and really like the poignant confession scene at the end of ep – SJ was so awesome and moving. Does such guy exist in real world?
Really like SJ’s team comprising the doc, Sec Moon ,Driver Kim, AJ and Se Kyung’s sister – first time we have so many secondary characters doing all they can to get SJ and Se Kyung together.

Ini sudah episode 10,tapi kenapa sepertinya mgy & psh belum menjadi pasangan dan kim ji suk kenapa sangat jahat.
Ceritanya makin membuat binggung,seperti yang saya baca di media on line kemungkinan penambahan episode semoga terlaksana.

Totally agree with you !Baeksang Arts Awards and SBS Awards night are for CDDA
January 6th, 2013 at 11:47 pm

CDDA ep 10 , although I can’t understand K. but I think PSH (CSJ) is very happy hope MGY ( Han Se Kyung) will decide to get by CSJ side till the end ….. (๑˘ᴗ˘๑)

It seems mean heroines are not Korean viewers’taste. Ratings rule in Korea after all.
Why SK changed to a Candy suddenly? Is she regretting what she has done or it ‘s because pathetic, poor sec Kim turned out to be mighty JTC? Not only her choice of the road to take wasn’t understandable in first place but considering her determination to continue that road in last ep, her sudden change of heart doesn’t make sense at all. It seems the writer was forced to change her female characters from evil, materialists to pathetic human beings who didn’t have any choice but to do this. But aren’t her excuses for justifying their actions shallow and unacceptable? ‘yes, we took advantage. We made them cry. We made them suffer. But we cried as much as them. What we have done wrong?’ You know what you have done wrong, girl. Really, i can’t get what this writing is trying to do.

Correction *writing should be writer

I luvvvvv this drama, it so romanticcc, ahhhhh wow. The main guy, his
funny caring loving towards the main girl. Its funny too. I hope it stays
on track. I’m glad its not that long, just perfect 16 episodes. I hope he
makes up with his dad. The other characters, his friends and her friends
and family, great people. Keep up the good work. I hope it would be a
wonderful ending to remember. Let them get married and show them, that
it can happen with the rich boy and the poor girl. Beat all the obsticals
in life. Yayyyyy pleezzzzz

@saraSJS:
you know, when a drama is good, one will pursue watching epis full with anticipation n excitement n simply cannot sit around n wait for follow-up epis…CDDA is one drama that defies all d odds…of me wanting to jump in immediately when epis are uploaded…see, my dilemma?? ive got epis 9 & 10 on standby n im dragging my feet to watch it altho i love PSH n MGY…i hate this writer!
i hate HSK’s character (not MGY)…i hate a weak, moping, indecisive, dishonest, boring character for a female lead! up till epi 9, HSK is still not happy with her decision n plans to score a rich husband…from d moment she listed down d ten unfavorable points in doing so…she has been overwhelmed with pangs of guilt n sadness n feelings of betrayal towards a sweet, naive n oblivious CSJ…
n now, obviously under pressure fr disgruntled viewers ovr such an unappetising female lead, d writer is going back to a true n tried formula of a pathetic n submissive heroine…overturning a never tried before experiment of a scheming, materialistic HSK…so, she’s a candy once again??? make-up your mind, ms writernim…stick to one plan at a time before more viewers abandon ship!

(Park Shi Hoo) You are my dream’s man
January 7th, 2013 at 4:39 pm
loving it so much i couldn’t ask for more.. psh is such a charismatic actor and play his character really well. mgy is pretty good too.. the chemistry between the two is just overflowing and i am getting drowned in a good way LOL
January 7th, 2013 at 5:33 pm
Love ep 10..esp d ending….i repeat it many times….

January 7th, 2013 at 8:03 pm

@saraSJS ”It seems mean heroines are not Korean viewers’taste. Ratings rule in Korea after all.” LOL… I think it’s not only korean viewers but also 90% of viewers who watch the drama/film. They couldn’t accept the real thing in drama/film! Coz they know, they see and they face the same in real life. Most of them watch drama/film for relaxing their mind
In my country, most of the( could be 90%) drama/film are comedy.
CDDA, the drama that want to portray the real life or (may be) try to changing the old path( the one who usually watch korean drama/film knows the cliche’ ways; poor heroine or rich heroine, scenod male lead who deeply love the heroine, second female lead who used to be our first male love ex-gf or gf, ….etc) .So, just give the writer a chance to the end (as you know it’s the first try for him) ! Or if he couldn’t please you till the end, just give him one fist for your precious 16 hours
. Lol
