Yup I already watched ep 1&2 at DF. I’ve tried to search everywhere for ep 3,4,5&6 and there’s no wesbite that has the eng sub for the rest of eps. I know most of international fans also leaved comments on the drama websites about eng sub, but no one replied.

This drama is so boring
December 23rd, 2016 at 1:47 am
love the drama , the story line something different from the usual korean drama
December 24th, 2016 at 5:35 am
having a bad rating doesn’t mean a bad drama, thid drama is so cool
December 24th, 2016 at 10:47 am
Bad Ratings = BAD DRAMA &/OR BAD ACTING, LIKELY BOTH. Why do drama executive producers and writers stress over low TV ratings & celebrate high ratings? Bad ratings => Low number of viewers => Profit/Loss + Bad Reputation for Actors. Survival of the Fittest => Fierce Competition. Good drama story is a must to succeed, even if acting is poor. But bad story + bad acting = Low Ratings => Death.
December 26th, 2016 at 5:21 am
there are lot of great drama with law rating, so for me bad rating it is not a mesure. and this drama is great and the cast are doing great job
December 29th, 2016 at 11:38 pm
This drama is great but not the best maybe bcoz it airing at the wrong time, wrong slot
December 29th, 2016 at 11:42 pm
I mean maybe it a lil bit hard to beat romantic doctor teacher kim atvthe same slot… ^^
January 1st, 2017 at 5:05 am
it is a dreat drama and have different story from the casual korean drama,it is so famous in china 12,000 million watch it in live ,but in korea it is different also,this drama start when romantic doctor is already have 4 episodes and already have good rating that is why it affect it here,but low rating doesn’t mean bad drama,for me it is cool and something new
January 1st, 2017 at 6:49 pm
I hope Seo Yi Kyung and Lee Se Jin will be together. I ship Yi Kyung x Se Jin.
January 9th, 2017 at 7:22 am
With Romantic Dr and Hwarang, this drama is kinda hard to survive. But I do enjoy watching this drama too
January 17th, 2017 at 3:55 pm
What is good about this drama is the story is different than the usual themes that most of the dramas have. It is great when the writers come up with not the norm of most of the dramas.
January 25th, 2017 at 5:00 am
Watching this drama is like I’m watching my real serious bosses and colleagues at work. I noticed Lee Yo Won always acted in this type of rivals and business genres. Used to love watching her when she was young, always smile sweetly but lately, in “Queen Seon Duk, Empire Gold and Night Light”, her expressions is always the same. Seriously anger and no smile at all, just like my tiger boss. She started to look old sister in this drama including Uee. I think Uee doing some plastic surgeries over her face. She used to have plump and swollen cheeks but now, her face looks totally small and V-shape. Why don’t she operate her eyes? Her big gold fish eyes isn’t flexible and always staring. That’s not good for an actress, such expressions is good for horror movies, shocking and startled characters.

i love this drama because i love the cast Lee you won is really great.. same with the other casts… This is really worth watching..
February 8th, 2017 at 5:47 pm
Lee Yo Won and Uee are soooo thin – like a pencil. Geez… Why do they want to be soo thin?? Thin is ok, but why do they want to look anorexic?
February 22nd, 2017 at 1:32 am
This drama is currently on USA Netflix under the name ‘White Nights’.
February 28th, 2017 at 2:10 pm
Holy crap this drama was incredible. I mean the business part made me a little confused and bored sometimes, but I really love the strong female characters (and gay undertone).
I’ve made a fan blog recapping the series, if anyone is interested in seeing someone else fangirl about the drama. It’s on tumblr, and linked in my name, so just click it if you’re interested in also fangirling.
Please for the love of god, where are the fans of this drama T_T.
March 2nd, 2017 at 7:00 am
To be honest! waste of time!! really ! don’t watch it ! I’m glad some people liked it but it was boring to an extend that even skipping through episodes didn’t make it watchable!
March 3rd, 2017 at 5:05 pm
For me I do not enjoy this drama, am never looking forward to next episode and only watch till Episode 4. It is kind of boring and perhaps I do not favor the main actress and also Uee to me not a good actress. Never favor Lee Yo won too, therefore I do not intend to watch the rest of the episodes. It is unlike Hwarang …you look forward to next episode, I never look forward for this one
March 16th, 2017 at 10:01 am
Really enjoyed this series and watched it on Netflix (Season 1). I’m new to KDrama and was impressed with the strong female characters and the simple pace and staging of the scenes. To me its a chess match with Yi Kyung the Master and Se Jin the student and I’m captivated by how they play off each other. They complement each other and their scenes together are the reason why i continued to watch this series. The clothes, cars and sets are first rate. Top notch drama and I hope season II starts soon on Netflix.
March 21st, 2017 at 3:57 pm
Jung Hae-In (Tak) is soo good looking. I liked him in Blood also. I haven’t seen him in other dramas.
March 28th, 2017 at 4:11 pm
Does anyone know how the show ended in Ep 20?????
The Eng subs started off OK, but then they went haywire. Did Gun Woo and Yi-Kyung give everything up??? Or what????
Geez…….after watching this for 19 episodes, and then to have the Eng subs all screwed up is disgusting.
