*SPOILER ALERT*
This was the very first kdrama I’ve ever watched, and it has become the standard by which I judge other kdramas. Although I am fairly new to watching kdramas, I can say that the few I’ve watched following Bad Love were mediocre compared to this one. Nearly every episode, I found myself moved by the incredible acting across the board for most of the cast.
I will admit that some episodes, I became annoyed at some of the characters…i.e. Yong Gi was sometimes too emotional for me and In Jung was so pouty most of the time…Yet, in the end, I realized my “irritated” reaction was a sign of the characters’ complexity and the actors’ top ability to showcase that complexity.
The plot was developed extremely well, and I applaud the actors and writers for showing that the characters are many layers deep; where unlike other dramas (both Korean and others) keep their characters pretty much one dimensional.
Upon watching this drama a second time, I find myself commending Soo Hwan’s character and Kim Sung Soo’s acting the most. Despite his hurting In Jung, throughout the drama, you really see him struggle with his guilt and attempts to reconcile those unsettled feelings. He is a very reserved man, and in the end, one can’t help but feel pity, instead of anger or contempt towards him. This is especially true when his mother talks to In Jung and reveals why he really had to let go of In Jung.
In the end, I appreciate how this drama acknowledges how our decisions affect those around us, and how some of our most precious values, particularly love, is both fragile yet transcendent of life’s realities.
I will no doubt rewatch this drama again and again.

What is this nonsense. I am on episode 1 and Soo Hwan’s wife looks like a whore but, Na In Jung looks like the nice one. I am at the scene where the crazy bitch of a wife comes into the convert hall and starts accusing In Jung and In Jung just takes it? And then, after all of that they put her in jail instead of the ugly crazy bitch? What kind of a country is that to allow such things…… So stupid!!!!!!

Who wrote the story anyway? If I am already upset at episode 1 it must have been some older woman who has outdated values. I am definitely looking up the writer and giving her ( so sure it’s a she) a piece of my mind.

It never ceases to amaze me how all these Korean script writers copy each other. Same story, different scenery, different actors and viola! You have yourself another drama. Nothing original. I guess it must be because they have to spit out the stories and hurry up and make them. This one is pityful because you have this woman who considers herself a victim and she just flows thru life taking all the beatings and insults no matter how much her man loves her. I get so tired of these women who do not love themselves enough to allow people to manipulate them. And these men still love them no Mather what. What does that say about Korean women when foreigners are watching these dramas? That makes them look bad and pitiful.

I don’t think that the scriptwriter Lee Yoo Jim has done a good story here. It is lacking in so many ways and it is not original. Just the same story about a pitiful young woman who makes bad decisions all around and does not love herself to stand up for for what she believes. It also shows how bitchy a lot of these rich useless women are who live in comfort and service their heartless husbands.

Na In Jung becomes so boring as a character, after Yong Ki loses his father. She moors around and never smiles. Shebis never happy and wallows in her own fate. She knows Yong Ki still loves her yet she still rejects him. How stupid is that?? What a stupid woman. She has become really annoying. I am on episode 13 and this pseudo chick shows up who looks like Yong Ki ex and she is friendly towards her? Boy! Is she stupid! I really do not like this character at all!

Really like this drama and the acting is good. I found the one who act doesn’t really good is the female lead. I love queen seundeok too but never like her acting
