First, I must admit that I saw the remake of this story before I saw this original version. I absolutely LOVED the remake (Something about 1%), so this version had a lot to live up to in my eyes. And while I like the remake better, this original version is really really good too. The cast is amazing and the story is fun to watch. Since this drama is 15 years old the hairstyles, music, and such are a bit dated, but you can easily overlook that.

The one thing about this version that bugs me just a bit is that the female lead (played by Kim Jung Hwa) is a bit annoying at times in the way she gets angry over things. For example, if something happens that is CLEARLY out of the other persons control, she still likes to harp on it for awhile as if the other person did it on purpose. This is not a reflection on the actress, but the writing. The actress does a great job in the role, but they do give here a few annoying traits like that in the story. However, she is a strong female character and I love that she has no problem going toe to toe with the male lead (played exceedingly well by Kang Dong Won).

If you are looking for a well acted drama that will leave you with a smile, this might just be the one for you.
