When I first read the summary for it I went in thinking Blue Salt was going to be this big gritty action extravaganza. Yeah well this movie was the total opposite! Yes there's guns and gangsters fighting but the story was more based on human emotion. I didnt really like the romance in this cause to me it felt more like an attachment/friendship. The ending was predictable and unpredictable at the same time.
The acting by SSK was really really good! I hardly recognized her from her High Kick series. The main gangster guy was a good actor but i didnt really feel the chemistry with SSK's character. It was nice seeing quite a few actors who are known more for their drama roles.
Overall this movie was good but it was missing something to make it stand out for me.

There were however, some elements that frustrated me. This is the kind of drama where there is an automatic redundancy that comes with the plot. Every episode he goes back, fixes a small mistake from his past. I think because of this you have to have a hook to keep the viewer watching. I found myself being frustrated by the many chances given and lost as well as many words left unspoken for too long.
I am thankful this drama was only 11 episodes because anymore and I don't think I'd have been able to finish. I must admit I almost gave up after 8 but due to the acting and the sweetness of the main couple I came back and finished. The characters were charming and I wanted to see if Kenzo would finally get his Rei. In the many sweet moments and scenes of their friendship and underlying love story is where the tentative hook to stick with this over rode the urge to drop it.
The movie/special redeemed this show for me but I will expound more in that review. The editing and directing were also good. I would imagine it is difficult to pull off time travel, past and future worlds and keep up consistency but this drama does it well.
The music didn't really stand out for me. I am giving this a 7 because there are dramas out there that want and need a good OST and some that simply aren't really about the music in the background. I think this drama was fine without a standout OST.
The rewatch value is just medium. Mostly because I know I won't watch again but I am sure others will.
This is a sweet little story. Try and have patience with it and I do think you will be glad you did.

The whole drama to me is like a very good Korean movie!!!
And I should mention the scenery!!! The views in the drama are spectacular. Thumbs up for the director and the whole crew!
I've watched lots of dramas but this one is different in its good meaning. At first, I wasn't going to watch it, but I gave it a try after reading a few positive comments. And I watched it one episode after another in one go.
So, I recommend it to you who are still hesitating. It's tear-jerking, but it's worth it, because when the scene is at its high emotional pick, only then you can truly understand what and how character feels at the moment, what he or she is going through.
Wonderful drama.

It's easier to understand the relationship dynamics between her and the robot. The acting is phenomenal. The plot is addictive and after you watch it you'll wish you could have a robot boyfriend.
The music is good and I've re-watched it a few times, but I have to set aside a weekend to marathon it, because it's hard to stop watching. I know that there are remakes coming out this year, but I'll be surprised if they can hold up to this standard.
Like I said, it got me hooked, which is probably the best recommendation I can give if you haven't seen it. This is a great first drama because it's not too serious and it's filled with heart.

The acting was absolutely outstanding. Kuroki Meisa portrayed Izaki's character perfectly, she actually ended up being my favorite character.
The music... er, I really didn't enjoy having Lady Gaga's 'On the Edge of Glory' being played every few seconds. They played it on the most dramatic moments. -.-
I'd recommend this drama to those who enjoy action and mystery. It's not super great but it's worth watching.
Sorry if this was a pretty bad review, this is my first review. xD

This is indeed another rich guy with issues falls for a poor no-nonsense girl drama. It has all the elements you should expect in this kind of kdrama, including greedy family members, a rival "hot" guy, and a jealous female rival. Even though the story is basically unoriginal, the way the characters act/react is often refreshing, and not so typical. There is also a pretty standard subplot about business corruption, betrayals, and greed, which eventually took too much focus in my opinion.
The supporting cast is made up mostly of fully developed characters, not just people meant to keep the main couple apart. Wang Ji Hye was really a stand out among the supporting cast. I initially liked Hero Jaejoong, though his coolness/aloofness started to bore me towards the end. I would have personally liked less time spent on the secondary couple who's scenes started to feel too repetitive. I also liked Ha Jae Sook, and I loved the female friendship displayed on the show.
The music fit the show well, though none of the songs were particularly memorable. Both male leads have more than one moment where they sing, which i thought was pretty cute.
I agree that this drama goes on too long. Compared to the pacing of the earlier episodes, the last episodes really started to drag the story out, and lost too much of the humor. The last scenes were underwhelming, and felt rushed. This is one of those kdramas that start with a bang and ends with a shrug. I still think this drama has more good going for it than bad, and would definitely recommend it.
