I've decided to watch this one after my friend told me about it. In the beginning I thought the story sounded superficial, but wanted to give it a go anyway. And it turned out to be a story full of humor, fluff and honesty. It made me want to continue watching after every episode! Though the acting seems a bit exaggerated (especially in certain scenes during the first episodes) it levels out as the story progresses. I was really surprised by some of the support-roles. Especially Ahmon's father who I originally thought to be laughing stock-figure, turned out to have a lot of potential. What I really liked about this drama: The actors were well chosen and did a nice job conveying emotions, problems and the individual characters. I was afraid "the devil" would end up making a 180° turn and end up suddenly being all lovey-dovey (like in several other dramas), but his character remained consistent only gained depth! Same goes for the supporting cast. I always get really frustrated when you have a couple of really good actors and their only function in the whole drama is to push along the storyline of the main characters. In this drama, they had there own stories. You got the impression of them being real friends, with honest and realistic behaviour. (I would have enjoyed to see more of the relationship between Jang Ping and Li Xiang, though!) After episode 5 I thought... 1. this is brilliant. 10* and 100% rewatch value. 2. There are another 15 episodes, what are they going to do? oO 3. Please don't let this turn into one of those dramas that just drag on and on and on... Well, it didn't drag on. I thought the screenwriter(s) did a really good job at tackling the whole "sibling-love affair" issue, in a realistic and honest fashion. I have to admit, I really liked this topic and was amazed at how well it was dealt with. What I didn't like: This is probably getting old and maybe I am biased by my own cultural background but I really hate it, when people do not talk about their feelings. They don't have to go confessing in ep 2 but how they always do whatever they think is right, always wanting to do everything on their own. As if they were alone in the relationship. Many of the dramas I watched could have been completed in half the time had people sat down for a decent talk. (Sorry... getting distracted here...) It's not too prominent in this drama though, but it is still there. And it's just frustrating to see the only time they ever sweet-talk to each other is after they have finally resolved one of these issues. (Okay enough of that now... I am ranting...) I know I said the drama is not dragging on, but during the last couple of episodes one does get the impression of the main characters just kind of going from one problem to the next. Mind, all problems are in line with the story and make sense, but I still got a little put off by too many problems and too little fluff. So I had to deduct some points, because it spoiled the rewatch value. The ending ... oh I won't ... spoilers ;) All in all this was still one of the better dramas I have seen so far. I'd definetely recommend it. It was great to watch and very enjoyable. This drama will make you want to watch on after every episode, because it is exciting throughout.
