wow.. Hwang Jung Min!!! cant wait to see him in this drama with Kim Jung Eun. I actually dont really like Kim Jung Eun acting, but when I knew that her bf (Leo Seo Jun) dumped her, I become sympathetic and feeling sorry for her. And now trying to like her and her acting, wish she can improve her acting skills in this drama.

this drama is getting in to my nerve. i can imagine how the staff works painstakingly . scouting for foreign characters alone would take some time. well written script, established and excellent actors, cast and staff!

First time to watch this drama. I was surprised why this drama did not rate so well, i mean for me its very nice and informative about Korea. But i thought maybe because they tackle a sensitive issue or topic about North and South Korea involving China,Russia and US.
