Apart from Lee Jong Suk & Han Hyo Joo’s onscreen chemistry, plus unique & creative storyline, the drama went from wow in the beginning to meh towards the middle til the end. I was in the verge of dropping the drama in the middle but I stayed on hoping for great closure. And in the end I still didn’t get it. Superb cast, yes. Recommendation to watch, hmm..i don’t think so.

Great Drama, loved it. different to other dramas… it was something unique. recommended and both lead casts did a great job.
September 18th, 2016 at 11:14 pm
i understand the plot and story line, and found it interesting in the earlier episodes, but when the characters voiced over scenes explaining what was going on, it started to get boring. there should have been a better ‘fantasy’ scenes explaining the cross-overs, and how the cartoon character became a human being in the end, etc. etc. i expected too much.

253: if you really understand the storyline and attentive in watching this I do believe that drama says that ‘one must sacrifice in order to live the other’ thats explained all. Mr. Oh sacrifice himself for Yeon Joo and Kang Chuls happiness. In this drama impossible will be possible since it has a genre “fantasy” Rewatchinng it again will do for you to understand.. ☺ Anyways W is an excellent drama so far of 2016! Very recommended.. 👏👍

best korean drama ever!! 💓☺️

Suspend your disbelief. Take a seat, buckle up and get ready for a mental and emotional rollercoaster ride! “W” is unlike anything else I’ve seen in Korean or US entertainment.
I chose to ignore the commentary Viki displays on the screen, because it ‘s as annoying as the people in a theatre talking at the screen. I wanted to be fully emerged in the story. And I was not disappointed for my efforts.

very lovely drama! best ones!
September 22nd, 2016 at 8:29 pm
Really love this one!!

@Ynah #2554: i did understand everything, and i did understand the ‘sacrifice’ that kang chul was explaining to hyo joo as she expected to have a happy ending for all three of them, and the father made the sacrifice to remain in the cartoon world. what i was wanting to watch were better drama scenes and not voiced over explanations, specially because the genre is fantasy. there was no more thrill towards the last episodes. it was not really hard to understand because the flash backs and voiced over explanations were repeated many times, and that alone can be boring. i beg to disagree that that was an excellent drama. good, but not excellent to my standards. sorry!

I agree with comment 254 from Ynah. I loved the drama from the start till the end. I also like the fact that they did not include explanation of why there are 2 worlds to begin with. If they did, it would have been boring. Therefore, this whole production is good and unique to me in my view. I was not much of a Lee Jong Suk fan but seeing him in both Pinocchio and W changed my impression of him. He may not be suave looking but definitely a charismatic actor. As for Han Hyo Joo, she has a sweet girl-next-door demeanor who is also great in her acting. Kudos to the other supporting cast who made the show interesting, cheerful and comical too. Definitely worth watching.

Good Drama… Recomended
November 2nd, 2016 at 9:43 pm
This is the first time I watched Han Hyo Joo played in a K-drama and she looks really fresh and cute. The special episode was more funnier then the entire drama. Highly recommended.
I’m going to watch Brilliant Legacy and Dong Yi in the next 2 months.

Almost all of Kang Chul’s world was NOT under the artist’s control. It makes no sense that he would claim to be the creator of that world just because he painted it images.

Ji Sub and Han Hyo Joo in the movie “Only You” (Always), IMO was Hyo Joo’s ideal partner. I think Park Shin Hye was better for Lee Jong Suk when the two were in the drama Pinnochio. On the whole Lee Jong Suk do not have that brooding manliness of guys like Ji Sub or Won Bin (movie Ahjussi) to pull off the romance.
