Awsome drama. I watched for Lee Sang Woo after seeing his new drama Feast of the Gods. I don’t understand why this drama has such low ratings. I would watch again for next girls night.

I like Lee Jung Jin in his latest drama, One Hundred Years Inheritance and whilst waiting for new episodes, I decided to try out this drama since he is the main lead here.
What a lovely surprise – this drama is so wonderful and underrated! Lee Jung Jin is so much better looking and hot in this drama than his current one. His chemistry with Soo Ae is so awesome and really one of the best I have seen in Kdramas so far. Their acting was so natural and believable. I must say this is one of best friendship turned lovers genre that I have watched so far- even better than award winning Tdrama, In Time with You.

@tc, I did the same as you: Discovered the lead in AHYI. Nothing interesting in rom-com land lately so I started watching this (saw 3 eps so far). It’s a very good surprise! Funny, romantic, sounds real. Not a single boring moment with fillers. It should have had better ratings than that awful 7GCS… I wonder why MBC lost its touch when it comes to rom-coms.
