The chemistry between Park Seo Joon and Kim Ji Won is really good.
May 27th, 2017 at 11:43 am
nice story 🙂 worth watching drama.
May 28th, 2017 at 1:33 pm
Honestly episode 1 not quite promising even my fave Kwak Dong Yeon is there, but episode 2 seeing Park Seo Joon in an action scene and starting the chemistry of Kim Ji Won, I will keep on watching this.
May 30th, 2017 at 11:56 am
i’m starting to love them now after episode 3, I can feel it, if they will keep on boosting their characters it will be hit…
May 31st, 2017 at 3:02 pm

June 7th, 2017 at 4:05 pm
This drama is getting better and better! Apart from the 4 main casts’ stories, I’m interested to know about the ahjumma landlord’s identity too. Haha
June 7th, 2017 at 5:40 pm
I like both leads. Their acting and chemistry are great. Really enjoying this drama. Hope the story getting more and more interesting 😛
June 14th, 2017 at 2:58 am
So far, I think this drama is the best in theme of romance and funny yet their story is more reality. Its getting funny and interesting when AeRa and MooBin started to date. MooBin is cute and funny, he really going has hard-times with jealousy DongMan.
June 14th, 2017 at 1:52 pm
Why 60sec durations of this drama not enough for me it was too short .
T.T never miss every scene. Love this drama more and more
June 20th, 2017 at 9:44 am
Omoo, my heart flutters everytime I watch this drama. It gives me all the lovey-dovey feels. The chemistry between PSJ and KJW is the best!
June 21st, 2017 at 3:05 pm
They’re too cute >..< PSJ KJW good chemistry !!
Love this drama
June 22nd, 2017 at 10:41 am
I like this drama so much because both leads acting well and they are so cute 😛
The story line is interesting too.
i just don’t like the office rich girl who goes after someone’s boyfriend of 6 years even she already know the truth……
June 28th, 2017 at 10:12 pm
For those who have not yet started following the series, please do so! It’s one of those dramas I watch RAW, watch again partially subbed, and watch again fully subbed because it’s that good! Not as good as Goblin but as good as Another Miss Oh and Suspicious Partner. It has romance, friendships, family issues, lots of funny scenes and a bit of drama rolled into one. A great “feel good” drama.
June 30th, 2017 at 10:08 am
I really love this drama and i think this is the best drama.
July 1st, 2017 at 2:19 pm
Seriously, I’m still figuring out who is that ajumma hwang bok hee.
July 4th, 2017 at 8:26 pm

super cute ending I will miss them, they are truly the “Fantastic Four”, and “Fight For My Way” will be added in my top a must watch kdrama list…
July 12th, 2017 at 2:06 pm
it was fun to watch the series. they should have used more cameras to catch different angles rather than one camera man with unsteady shoot.
July 13th, 2017 at 10:49 pm
Really love this drama, love the cast, story, and act
My favorite after MDBC
July 16th, 2017 at 10:18 pm
Finished watching FMW and it’s one of my favorite k-drama.

It brings happiness to my heart.

Third Rate My Way was a cute and simple drama. A little slow at times, but it had great characters was entertaining enough.
