I think Nam Goong Min’s doing the right thing, cut off his hair into a short… of course more look younger than his age…hehehe…

October 7th, 2013 at 3:12 am
Sadly,so far I’m bored. Hope it gets better.
October 7th, 2013 at 9:38 pm
Cant wait for Nan Gong Min… I love him 😀
October 8th, 2013 at 2:53 am
1st was stupid dont get the drama
October 8th, 2013 at 5:11 am
I will watch until end:) Funny and interesting, it’s pity that only one episode per week. First episode seems boring, but I wonder their past story, why they broke up (what happened):D I don’t know, that’s true, but supposedly first 3 episode’s story will be from the woman’s point of view, then the man will have next 3 episode, and last 4 episode will be completely present (together).

First episode seen and I really appreciated it, funny and completly overboard !
Ok the first episode of this drama doesn’t follow the synopsis but I will wait and see next episodes cause Lee Young Ah plays really great ! She is in at 200 % !
Bravo Young Ah

Oh hate to be cruel but the ads were more interesting.
October 14th, 2013 at 5:39 am
ahh it is amazing drama! I strongly recommend..characters are so lovely 🙂
October 16th, 2013 at 1:37 pm
Still having a tough time staying interested.
October 16th, 2013 at 3:15 pm
the main male lead supposed to be Nam Gong Min, right? but why i think Suh Joon Young more like the main lead :/
October 22nd, 2013 at 12:10 pm
This is a really nice drama with very good casts. Too bad only 10 episodes and only once a week. So far I am enjoying all three episodes.
October 28th, 2013 at 12:14 am
i laught so much in ep 4, it’s really funny.
This is a new thing the first 3 ep base on the point of view the female lead n ep 4 start of the male point of view
October 28th, 2013 at 6:27 am
Still trying to give it a chance.
October 28th, 2013 at 1:41 pm
characters, story, actors…sorry to say, all very disappointing…i’m going to stop watching now…
October 28th, 2013 at 11:41 pm
I really like this drama. I love Nam Goong Min! It’s amazing how he can stretch his acting abilities and play a role like Jang Joon Ha in Can you Hear My Heart and then play Kim Jong Dae in Unemployed Romance. Awesome:)
October 30th, 2013 at 1:59 pm
This is the only rom-com that i like, right now. Try to watch Marry him if you dare but not really take my attention n I’m not even interested to see heirs. The story is different n about real life that happen around us not only typical love betwen man n woman
November 13th, 2013 at 3:01 pm
love this drama. maybe at the first seems bored but still watching and you can find the interesting at this drama
November 24th, 2013 at 9:31 pm
Wow, this drama is awesome. I am watching ep 3 now, it’s true that ep 1 and 2 are a bit boring, the romance will start in ep 3.
November 25th, 2013 at 6:16 pm
I agree the ep 1 and 2 a bit boring.. but after ep 3 i’m really enjoying wathing this drama.. their chemistry is awesome…
November 28th, 2013 at 6:15 pm
i was watched this drama ep 1 – 3 is very funny, ep 4 – 6 is flashback story, then ep 7 continue the story of ep 3, this drama is interesting, can’t wait ep 8 – 10
December 9th, 2013 at 1:35 pm
Just finished! Worth watching! It’s really a nice story with nice casts. Very happy ending!
December 10th, 2013 at 12:26 am
I admit 1st 2.5 episodes are REALLY boring. But after, its very nice!! Unlike typical kdrama like the heirs that are too far fetched from reality. This is so much nicer. The heirs is really boring, cant continue further..
December 31st, 2013 at 5:02 pm
awesome drama….its really worth watching…..its so funny that i laughed a lot in every episode….
January 12th, 2014 at 6:35 pm
the ending..i dont get it,there should be more!
January 13th, 2014 at 12:22 pm
funny enough to keep me interested..but 10 eps a bit too short 🙁
January 17th, 2014 at 12:41 am
I think this really interesting drama, eps 1-3 we can see the girl side point of you then eps 3-6 the guy point of you, the rest eps 7-10 both point of you.. I know this supposed to be rom-com drama but some scene just make tears in my eyes… love.. love this drama.. 🙂
I know at the end its just the story made by seung hee for a drama in reality she found happiness with jong dae.. love chemistry between lee young ah and nam goong min.
January 29th, 2014 at 7:46 am
I am with #36, don t get the ending. Sorry, have to vote negative on this drama although I am a fan of Nam Goong Min.
June 26th, 2015 at 3:37 am
I dont like the ending at all
