It's no different from it's synposis, a clean freak-arrogant-proud-always- get- what- he- wants guy meets an untidy-impulsive-stupidly-kind hearted girl and the God of love pulled a fast one on both of them. And of course, there are characters that don't want both of them to be together. Actually the storyline might not be any difference, but the plot was well-laid.
The main characters had issues from their past, that they've lived with and they have to challenge their present, in other to be able to solve (let go) the past. Most of the characters also underwent some changes as the drama unfolds i.e they had a better and clearer perspective towards life and...... The acting and the characters were wonderfully portrayed, mixing the characters up would be impossible.
The OSTs were really good, I for one have no complaints whatsoever about the OSTs.

It has a common storyline, that I have to admit-- The Forbidden love storyline. Although the storyline is nothing new, the plot was wonderful. The plot had a twisted feel to it, the scenes weren't predictable AT ALL (....hmmm... okay some were)
Needless to say, Mizushima and Osamu Mukai keyed into their roles wonderfully, they were really perfect for the roles. The actress was okay, this is my first time seeing her in a drama, nevertheless, she acted her role well. There were a lot of cute, random and weird moments/scenes among the maidens and their butlers, these are not moments or scenes that you what to miss out on. There were a lot of face-offs between the casts, this made the drama more interesting.
It's really worth watching.

Sunny merges the 70's with the 21st century PERFECTLY, the blend was flawless. Sunny is all about the reunion of 7 best friends. They were friends in high school, but an accident happened, which led them to disband, but they promised to meet each other in the nearest future.
I couldn't hold back my tears while watching this. It's a wonderful movie. It actually got me thinking of how it would look like for me to meet my friends from playgroup or to meet my current friends 25 years later.
The OST is the DAEBAK.

For me the highlight of the show was probably neither the revenge nor the romance but rather to parallels and storylines that crossed and tangled between the two generations. How Seon U became so much like his father, Jangil like his, and Sumi like hers was what really kept be going in this story. There were so many layers involved in all of their relationships.
Acting/Casting - I loved the whole cast. I felt they played out their characters quite nicely (especially LJH, he did an outstanding job) and for once I was quite amazed at how the older versions actually really resembled the younger versions (something that bothers me in so many other dramas when I can't connect the two ages because they look so different). My only complaint might have been that UTW did look way older than LJH which threw me off a bit at times when I had to remind myself that they are supposed to be the same age.
Music - Ha. Well. Music. Right. It was okay I guess. The first episode was nothing more than a disaster but as the show progressed it did get better and better. Still by the end, I wasn't yet convinced I was digging the music and the music queues.
Rewatch Value - Honestly, I don't think I'll ever have the desire to rewatch this from start to finish. It was interesting one time around because of the twists but honestly now that I know everything it just won't be that appealing again. I'll probably find the pace way too slow. I might go back and rewatch certain scenes that I liked (which will probably be in the first three episodes because they those episodes were honestly among my favorite...) but I'll probably never rewatch from start to finish.
Overall - 7/10. It had it's flaws, quite a few of them, but the plot and cast saved this drama from becoming unbearable. Although it felt slow at times, it was a compelling story but not one I would watch again.

This movie is defiantly different from others I've scene and even though the music was pretty cliche for a drama movie, the casting was great the story was sad (if you're emotional like me you will cry). The one thing about this movie though is that it left me wanting more. Even though I really liked the ending, for me it's just missing something, which makes me constantly re-watch this movie and constantly think about it. However at least in my opinion, that's what makes a good movie. When it has you constantly thinking even long after you've watched it.
Koizora is sad, cute, and sweet. It is certainly aimed at girls, probably for high-school/college students, but I feel like anyone who just wants to watch a sweet love story and is in the mood for something a bit sadder then usual would really enjoy this movie.

My utmost congrats to the team especially the screenwriter, because succeed in twisting the plots all around and in the end you realized there's no flaws spotted from the very beginning till the end, making us believe that North Korean is passable, u also can see the strictness of the North trooper, it’s just perfect how they executed each of scene without failed. The storyline almost perfect and if you can see many foreigner extras making this drama looks like blockbuster action pack movie, using international political issues can bring sensitiveness point to the viewer sometimes, but the plots explained it well at the end of the story.
This drama is about our current living cultures, where we still experienced it nowadays. It is about put the families before all that matters, love without boundaries, friendship with honor and faith, uphold dignity of the nation,patriotism,integrity and teamwork, sins and forgiveness, ruthlessness with no mercy, fighting till the end and it is about HOPE and FAITH.
Ha Ji Won as Kim Hang Ah, successfully portrayed a character of a strong bold innocent young lady living in the North of Korean, as always she never disappointed us in acting and Lee Seung Ki as King Lee Jae ha also succeed in portraying the character of a funny young man, making stupid humors sometimes to hide his true feelings, can get on everyone’s nerves sometimes especially his comrades from North during WOC training, sometimes selfish but yet aware of his duty as a King of South Korea's modern monarchy. He’s the king who knows how to hide the fears in front of his enemies with his fishy smiles and arrogant behavior. But his right hand man, Eun Shi Kyung, who is always stood by him, understood and knew him well. They became ‘invisible friend’ in protecting each other.
Love story between Kim Hang Ah and Lee Jae Ha started when they're fighting and teasing at each other at the beginning later turned it to a great love after all, also between Princess Jae Shin(Jae Ha's sister)and Eun Shi Kyung, kinda awkward sweet moment for them but you will missed them for sure.
I recommended this drama as top 5 drama in 2012. Already add this drama in my top 5 list ^^. Happy watching.

And I was really surprised by the plot, because not always you can find a drama in which something happens all the time, that is why it is faaaaaar from those boring ones. Acting was also pretty good, i would even say, very good! I would definitely watch it at least one more time, because there are always things you can omit while watching for the first time, but you can pay more attention to them when you return.
I recommend everyone to watch it and enjoy it as much as i did. :*

I started watching K-dramas two years ago and this being my very first maiden drama review on this site speaks volume about "Rooftop Prince" and the impression it has left on me. Three days had passed since I completed the show and the touching scenes within the show kept flashing in my mind even when I am writing this review.Story:
At the beginning, it seems to have the making to be just a pure comedy given the ridiculous time travel element and yes, the first few episodes were very light hearted but they did a superb job in introducing the bigger scheme of things to come as well as set the stage for an epic romance between Lee Gak/Tae Yong and Park Ha that transcend the test of time and space. There were lots of heart-warming as well as heart-wrenching moments between those two. I witnessed my wife cried like a baby on several ocassions :)
Without revealing any potential spoilers, I personally like the last two episodes and I thought it was a beautiful and poetic way to end such a wonderful show even though it does leave you with a tinge of sadness. I think the message here is love will stand the test of time and to be together is worth celebrating no matter what may happen in the future.
Cast:
I can't find a single fault with any of the actors and actresses. They were totally into their roles. I like Mickey ever since I watched him in Sungkunkwan Scandal and I thought he was already very good then. In this show, he more than better his own performance. As for Han Ji Min, well, what can I say, this is the first time I ever watched her and I am already a fully converted fan of her after this show. Everytime she cries, she has the ability to make you feel really sad for Park Ha. I am already planning to watch her Padam Padam and Yi San after this show.
Music:
The OST for this drama is simply stunning especially the main theme song (not the funny one but the sad one, those who watched the show will know which one I am referring to). The lyrics brought out the essence of the entire show perfectly. If you listen to the song together with the lyrics especially during those heart-wrenching moments, it does makes u feel like crying.
Rewatch Value:
Usually I won't rewatch dramas because you already know the plot but this is one which I will definitely rewatch again within the next 3 months. It was that good!

1) great chemistry between leads. ji hyun woo and yoo in na are PERFECT. not short of kissing scenes or cute scenes, yet not cheesy at all. no 2nd lead syndrome here.
2) ridiculously funny. especially since ji hyun woo's character's from the joseon period and doesn't know how to do many things e.g fastening a seatbelt, which leads to many laughable antics...
3) the seamless transition between the joseon period and 2012 modern korea made it easy to watch. very understandable, maybe except the first episode, but dont let that deter you from watching!!
4) unexpected! a few middle finger-pointing scenes from the actress herself. HAHAHA
please give it more love, it isn't very popular since it's a cable drama, but it's reallyyyy worth it! ?

Like my Momma always said, "u can't have ur cake & ice cream too." It means that u don't always get what u want & this drama is a prime example.
Drama is like reading a book & not all stories end happy! The more realistic the ending the better I think the drama is. Loved this 1 & will put it in my top 10.

Otherwise I thought the actors did and excellent job - the chemistry between the main couple, the "3 amigos", the evil sister, the evil cousin, and the supporting cast members were all great.
There were some great sound tracks in this drama I have to say, although I'm terrible at remembering which ones I especially enjoyed. This drama is definately on my rewatch list, as it was cute, funny, mysterious, and romantic all in one. I would recommend this as a cute and fun drama that is great if you have the time to watch and are looking for something a little different than your average k-drama rom. com.
