Story:
At first I didn't like the Story, but fortunately I used to like it with every episode. This was my reason to watch it till the end. Now I can say, that the Story is funny and in my opinion every episode grows. The story shows us a Romance with many funny aspects, so I would recommend this drama to those viewers who like romantic with comedy. But please don't have hope, do view melodramatic aspects.
Acting/Cast:
Like I said before I began this Drama because of Yeon Woojin. He didn't disappiont me in this Drama. He shows a wonderful acting, so I liked him in here. I saw him in An Ordinary Love Story, Ojakgyo Brothers and the shortfilm Just Frieds?, before and had high expectations. In my opinion he plays the role of Ki-tae in a way, that not anybody can do. The female Lead was played by Newcomer Actress Han Groo. I didn't know her before, so I didn't sxpect very much. I think she can grow in the future, because in my opinion she is a great actress. She plays the role of Jang-mi very nice, although sometimes she got me on my nerves. Han Sunhwa's role...I don't know what to say. She was so...two faced. In one episode I liked her...in an other episode I hated her. The same goes for Jeon Jinwoon. Furthermore I think the two of them did their best and I hope they get more roles (Rosy Lovers is one of the Dramas, I am currently watching.)
Music:
I like the music, but I don't know why. It is...happy I think. The Song 'Stop the Love now' by Ben is a happy Song and was played at the end oft the episodes. In many Dramas the ending Songs are dramatic and I like dramatical songs more that those, who shows happiness. But I liked the Music of this drama.
Rewatch Value:
Yes, I am sure I will watch this Drama again, but first I have a long list with other dramas.

My personal favorites were Young Ok, and that halapati who kept trying to date her. God I loved Young Ok. She was hilarious throughout and her song is totally stuck in my mind. Gen-Gen-Gen-Gentleman-ida XD I liked Pung Geum and the driver dude. They were so cool and I loved their ending. The main couple was a little stiff at times. I don't really like their acting but their scenes together were sweet. I liked the OST.
Overall it's not the best drama out there but in terms of makjang it's pretty average and watchable and Young Ok definitely makes it more worth it.

All the actors did a really good job and I will admit that for the most part the dialog was good. The stand outs though are Yoo Oh Sung as Hwang Ki Chul the bad ass spy from North Korea that had no problem doing whatever is necessary to get what he wanted, He is an excellent actor. Bae Jong Ok was also brilliant as Hye Rim. She portrayed this strong character really well. I think I enjoyed her character the most. Then there is Kim Jae Joong as Seon Woo. He really is getting better with each drama that he takes on. His character was smart and fun to watch.
I like the music in this drama fine.
I won't rewatch this.
I don't necessarily recommend this drama, but it isn't a waste of time.

The acting was okay although a bit cheesy. I'm not going to go into every actor like I usually do, because no one was outstanding. It was all just mediocre with stupid dialog at times. I don't think that is necessarily the actors fault though.
The music was ok.
I will never rewatch this.
I don't really recommend this drama even if you like makjang.

When I say cutest I mean totally the CUTEST drama ever. Lots of admissions of "like" at first and realizing that they are both messed up individuals who need each other to fix each other. Episode 4 was such a step from the norm in dramas and it wasn't even this "I LOVE YOU" type of thing made it even better.
Episode 9 there is a scene that had me ROTFL and I was even more infatuated with this drama.
A little later on around episode 12 there is a change in the story which turned a unique drama kinda typical for me and is the only reason this drama got a 9.5/10. I do not think this "twist" was needed and I wish it could be re-written.
All that said I think it ended well, the characters don't really "fix" each other but help heal everyone. Detective Jang's story was a nice little side story and even the mother and fathers stories. It was a very cute, sweet and mostly unique drama that I would highly recommend.

The beginning of this drama really hooked me. I have a weakness for stories of two friends torn apart by fate or circumstances or whatever. Epic bromance? Sign me up. So this should be right up my alley, right?
The acting is quite good from all the main cast members, with the exception of the adult version of Ji Sun, which just about everyone who reviewed this drama already mentioned. It didn't help that her character had nothing to do for most of the drama, but even when she did, she just didn't draw me in. Choi Min Soo is the opposite end of the spectrum. During certain episodes, I'm pretty sure I was watching for him only. Ji Chang Wook and Yoo Seung Ho are both good as the main characters, but I had serious problems with how just about every character was written, including their characters.
Which brings me to the writing. There was a long stretch of episodes in the middle where it really felt like nothing was happening. I mean, things happened, sure, but as far as advancing the main story, nothing much was accomplished in those episodes (ginseng, anyone?). The story lost its way somewhere, and without rewatching (which is not happening), I can't be sure where exactly. Around the end of the older generation's arc, I was actually willing it to end faster. Which I knew was a very bad sign, since I really loved those characters in the beginning of the drama. How did they end up so unimportant to the story?
And from there, it got even worse for a while. For a story centered on the conflict between the two lead men, they definitely didn't do much with that conflict. Also, Dong Soo is a bit of an idiot at times, and the writers obviously thought we were too if we weren't supposed to know which "side" Yeo Woon was playing for. (Were we supposed to be as surprised as Dong Soo was by that revelation? I really can't tell.)
The personality transplant of a previously likeable side character that set the final act into motion was completely out of nowhere. After all this time to set up the final confrontation, this is all the writers could come up with? I give the resolution of Dong Soo and Yeo Woon's story a little credit for being genuinely affecting and well-acted, but it's equally infuriating. To be clear, I'm not upset about the fact that it's sad; I'm upset about how we got there, and how much better it could have been.
And that last episode really was nearly unwatchable. Do we really need to pair off everyone? Is that what constitutes "closure"? Ugh.
Ultimately, I would give the first half (approximately) of this drama a 7. Solid, good, watchable, with potential for better things to come (I only give scores 8 and up to things I really like a lot--I'm picky that way). The latter half gets...something much lower than that. But I did finish it, which doesn't always happen, so I settled on a 4.5 for the overall rating. There are good parts and strong performances here, but the writing really did fall apart somewhere for me. I know a lot of people love this drama, and I can understand that, because the things this drama did well, it did really well. Cinematography, acting, epic, multi-generational, ill-fated friendships, and so on. But I think precisely because it does some things well, the things it didn't do so well (pacing and writing issues, chiefly) are glaringly obvious.

Esta resenha pode conter spoilers
I had no idea when I started watching this drama that I would love it. Also, my girlfriend who has never watched a drama with me actually watched this entire drama and liked it. She was really annoyed at some of the angsty parts, but enjoyed it over all. This drama is well written and the directing and acting is excellent. I think this has a good balance of silly vs angst. I am not a huge fan of rom/com, but this had just enough melodrama also. I really love how the writer has the main couple communicate and that their issues don't last very long. It makes for a nice paced drama. I really think it is hard to go into much of the story line with out revealing spoilers. However, there is one point that I think is really important. Holding in secrets and lies will eat at your soul. Also, no one can be happy with you if you aren't happy by yourself Side note: I have read people that are upset because Yi Seok calls Hong Do ";ugly" through this drama. Normally I would agree, but he is doing it at first because she wouldn't believe him when he said she was pretty so she wouldn't trust him and follow him to recovery. Later he calls her that as a form of endearment. I don't think in any way the writer meant that as Yi Seok putting Hong Do down.
Chun Jung Myung is one of the most natural actors. His portrayal of Yi Seok is emotional and I was completely invested in his character. Choi Kang Hee is not everyone's favorite actress, but I like her. She was perfect as the troubled and quirky Hong Do. Poor Lee Jae Yoon as Detective Jang. Will he ever be in a drama where he gets the girl? Or at least the girl he is originally in love with? Ahn So Hee is so cute as Se Ro. I enjoyed her character immensely. She seems cocky and shallow, but she is really caring. It is amazing that she came from that family.
Jin Hee Kyung really knows how to pay the crazy biatch mother (I'm not even sure or her name). I really hated her from beginning to end. The other actors are good too.
I really enjoyed the music in this drama.
I will probably rewatch this at some point.
If you like a good love story with some comedy and some melodrama that is paced well, then I think you would enjoy this drama.

Story: Not new just better told of an introvert-social phobia meets psychologist who is need of psychologist quickly realizing they are match. What made this story right was the pacing, great dialog and overall tightness of script. Not any storyline stray, simply watching these three characters develop within the 16eps was GREAT!
Acting: the onscreen chemistry & acting of the two leads was "spot-on" and totally believable. Their growing relationship was like watching a tadpoles grow into frogs. The actress who could not act (sister) was cast perfectly, she could not act - thus totally believable.
Music: Done well and matched the mood and feel of the actions on screen. Well done!
Would I watch again? Yes
H:H was a surprise hit for me in this land of dramas this season. Mostly all dramas have family secrets, but this story dealt with the severe emotional toll secrets have on all involved - voluntarily or NOT. Rec. this for those wanting something light BUT with a heavy undertone message and solid acting.

The store revolves around a young girl that has issues being around people and how a chance meeting with a doctor starts of a sting of events that changes her life. Pretty simple storyline but devil is in the details...please watch this drama without prejudice because it will surprise you.
In my opinion its my favorite drama of 2015 so far

With out spoiling the plot it was nice to have a character with integrity. I actually did not care for PSH character In Ha as much because she seemed to hiccup too easily, even if she wasn't "lying". I liked that while there was obvious romance here it wasn't the overly romantic drama, romance was almost like a supporting character, explaining their roles and characters without being overwhelming.
One of the biggest problems/best things was that I did not hate the antagonist. I actually felt bad when they got in trouble at the end. In fact none of the people who did "wrong" in this show were very "bad" at least not to me. I actually really liked a few of the antagonist like the Chairman.
Overall I liked this drama, it was an easy watch, not something that maybe kept me "really" fascinated but at the same time it was smooth.

The story seemed like it would be action packed, what with the spy theme and all. It wasn't. Yeah, there was fighting and shooting in most of the episodes, but how it was managed to make them so boring and uninteresting is beyond me. I literally caught myself yawning more than once while I watched this drama.
The story is supposed to be suspeseful. I never found it so. I found it repetitive and extremely predictable from episode 1. There for a while, around ep 4 or 5, I did start hoping for it to pick up and get more interesting, which it seemed to do, but only barely and then it fizzled. Also, the ending was, again, predictable and anti-climatic.
Now, I rated this a 7, which means that I did find some good qualities to redeem it a bit. #1. JaeJoong. It's not his fault the writing sucked. While he was not at his Triangle caliber, he pulled his part off very well and his performance was more than decent. #2. The music. I really enjoyed the OST for this drama, especially Reuby's Key To Her Heart. It fit the theme well. #3. Short episodes. I liked how each episode was only about 45min. each. Any longer and it would have been even more drawn out.
I would only recommend this drama to other JaeJoong fans. Like I said, his acting is decent in this. However, if you are looking to watch a well written, suspenseful, action packed spy drama, you'd do well to skip this one.
