Story: a 70yr old man gets a chance to re-live his youth and see what he did wrong in order to correct his mistakes, what he believed to be right all along may not have been right...He'll see things differently through his sons perspective & a girl he falls for (mind you I skipped their romance scenes).
Cast: Choi Dae Han (Lee Joon) - My favorite and the entire reason why I decided to watch this drama and the sole reason why I kept watching 'till the end ;) He was entertaining to watch from beginning to end. All his smiles were dazzling^^ I would have fallen for him in a heartbeat <3 Handsome and wounded - his mending is on the way - It was beautiful and touching to watch <3 His father considered him to be troublesome and untrustworthy - that is until he realizes why his son was living that way. Eun Ha Soo (Jang Nara) an employee who gets entangled with father & son. Choi Go Bong/Choi Shin Hyung (Shin Ha Kyung) - This is the first drama I've seen him in and I admit he's a good actor & his scenes with his son were adorable - He's the chairman that gets a second chance at life - we see him go from selfish to caring during the process of this drama.
Music: Hong Jin Young ft. Outsider: 'Give Me Back My Youth' -
Re-watch Value: 5/10 - I more than likely won't but if I get an urge to watch Lee Joon some more I might pop back in to re-watch his scenes^^

The overall story line was pretty good. i consider a drama good when i have strong feelings about each character. the only character i liked was Tae Sang. As for the other characters, i understand their importance and how their role lead me to liking Tae Sang so much. i did not like how the relationship between Tae-Sang, MiDo, Sung-Joo, and Jae-Hee all played out. my problem with it was how their relationships ended but overall it was very interesting.
the acting and cast was pretty good. it was very convinced. to have a cast that can act out and be convincing with the story line with such awful and cold characters is great.
The music i didn't notice very much. it didn't play a very big role in the drama. i wouldn't rewatch it because for the most part i didn't really like how it ended. with regards to the love story it ended with the usual K-drama happily ever after kind of ending and it was irritating because i imagined it ending in a more "karma catches up with everyone" kind of way.
The drama wasn't to bad. i have watched worse dramas and I've watched better drama's. it had many twist and turns and overall it wasn't too predictable.

I love and adore the storyline of this drama . IT is about a girl and boy who live together as siblings brother and sister ( they are not real brother & sister not biologically) they are used to take care of each other and live together they know every single small detail about each other . They deeply fall in love started being jealous but it was difficult for them to realize that
.
Acting : The acting was beautifully amazing and the two main actors had such an awesome chemistry u gonna love their scenes together on screen .However it is sad that the directors didn't gave them the chance to appear together for a long time
Music : Despite the fact that I do not understand Taiwanese language , I liked the music at this drama it was stuck in my head

The romance and cuteness of Wallace and Tiffany is what keeps this from being a total flop. It bothers me that the writers cross the line of naivety to stupid with Qi Lin, who knows martial arts, about medical herbs and is clearly not stupid. Also, I think the writers make Wallace too cold-hearted at times. However, Wallace and Tiffany did great with what they were given. Most of the other actors are ok also.
The music is really good.
I will never rewatch this.
I don't necessarily recommend this drama, but it isn't horrible.

The story of both the families and their history slowly being revealed was the key likable element of this drama, the love story parts were meh with the usual crazy 2nd female lead and we have the 3rd even crazier female lead to make it even worse. The way the flashbacks are shown are done in poor way, we start at present with the fake wedding then go into flashback and in that flashback we keep going further into many flashbacks. The show was too long and the last 5 episodes were pure asian drama draggy elements where they put stuff to make the outcome of the main couple till the last part of the last episode. This could have been so much better but ended up being average despite the well made family history part.
Characters:
#The main male lead was an idiot who would tangle himself with a lot of women and end up hurting all of them.
#The main female lead was a rebel who wanted to act out bratty every chance she got due to her being treated inferior to her cousin by everyone except the Grandma.
#The other two females were of the same self centered type to play the nasty people just from different backgrounds
#The 2nd male lead was a pleasant surprise in a drama filled with messed up people he was the likable one along with 2 other support character couple.
Acting was largely good barring a few scenes
Music was good enough but not to my style
Watch this drama if you like complicated family histories which unfold in some unlikely ways.
Dont watch it if you are looking for a contract marriage/forced marriage style rom com as those parts are very very few and negligible compared to the crazy antics of the annoying 2nd 3rd female leads and the family drama. The drama starts with the fake marriage in first episode right away then flashback for 7 episodes which is about 10 hours worth, followed by even more flashbacks and some even repeated.
There is no rewatch value as once the family secrets are known this drama falls flat

Did they ever deliver on that one.
This is hands down the best drama I've ever watched. It may or may not age into being one of the best things I ever see on screen, but there is a good chance of that happening; and there is no way I won't remember it as a profound influence on who I am and who I was when I first watched it.
That's what this drama is, you see: a zeitgeist. Solely by character study, it captures the frustration of the class divide, and both the actions and the attitudes that preserve it. These it explores from a wealth of perspectives, telling you who a character is by showing you how they think and act. This effortful characterization goes into almost every side character in the show, loveable and hateable alike (and there are good reasons both to love and to hate every one of them); but nowhere as powerfully as when the two leads are in focus.
In classic Movie Appreciation course fashion, it's quite possible to classify them as two philosophical perspectives - Oh Hye Won as the pragmatist and Lee Seon Jae the hedonist - but that's label-gloss, to talk about what they consider important. Large, complex, and tense as the world may be that this show lives in, the whole thing is quite neatly reducible to an extended conversation between these two, arguing about what they care about and how they're going about achieving it.
And providing the throughline, the reason they are having this conversation at all, is the music - grand, melancholic, seductive, consuming. The way the leads are involved in it involves us - you have never in your life listened quite as closely to anything as you have to Schubert's Fantasie as you will while watching Yoo Ah In play it, and Kim Hee Ae listen, transfixed, in the background. Once trapped into paying attention, not once will the soundtrack misstep and let you go. Everything your ears experience for the next fifteen hours, however you divide them up, will have immodest effect on you, and on what you're seeing in even the most innocent exchanges. The story, the acting, the camera, all of it sets you up to be involved, provoked, and entertained - but the music is what makes it matter, in your gut, when even the briefest of glances is stolen, the lightest touch committed. Its presence or absence lends the punch to every word spoken. And in scenes when it's being played by any of the characters - well, good luck trying to focus on anything else.
The pacing is neither slow nor fast. You have the time to savor things, and to appreciate the setting and the world. The external conflict isn't simplistic, for all that it plays second fiddle; it's given its due weight, both in screentime and in how much it matters. Nowhere do you feel redundancy set in; the writer manages to bring some freshness even to the tired chaebol rogues gallery, by not tiptoeing around the foot-level dirty work involved. A little fatigue could set in around the third quarter, but compared to most dramas this is minimal.
The color palette is warm, and the visuals are set up to be striking rather than rich or polished. Superb camerawork, for all that the music is the star of the show; it works organically with the scene and actors, and follows a poetry of its own that becomes more or less subtle depending on the moment.
Rewatching will be for three possible reasons: a)fully understanding the sometimes too-subtle plot, and following the threads that involve the less critical side characters; b) trying to form new perspectives on the show as a whole because we're all wannabe philospohers like that; or c) just enjoying the whole experience again, free to savor every moment of the acting, directing, and music at leisure. The last I do quite often.
tl;dr Like a Tolstoy novel, except I started piano lessons after this show because they make it sexy.

Story: This drama centers around Sales people - (now I can't relate to them at all as I don't work in an office building or anything like that but while watching this drama I know that I never could or would even want to - way too stressful - I totally understand why they said they all walk around with a resignation paper in their pocket everyday - I would have quit on day 1!) I can't deal with that much stress in my life - Besides the fact that I personally would never be able to "sell" anything to anyone lol
Cast: Suk Yool - he was my favorite, he kept things lighthearted and interesting - he was a joy to have around, he's very entertaining^^ If not for him this drama wouldn't have been bearable to watch (for me anyways). Baek Ki - Handsome, ambitious, nice, cold, distant but yet somehow close. He's a really difficult character to figure out completely - I did like him especially more towards the end. Geu Rae - our "star" of the show, he's innocent and naïve and I could relate to him the most - as he was 26 & basically did nothing w/his life and well I am kind of in the same boat (I'm 26 now too)...Young Yi - I honestly found her a bit boring and hard to read - she was nice I'll give her that & I pitied her character a lot during the drama...but I didn't connect with her. Dong Shik - he's likeable like a good friend or mentor and a great co-worker. Gwan Woong - he comes later on in the drama but I liked it when he appeared, he's nice and considerate & also handsome^^ Oh Sang Shik - the boss of team 3 - he was basically the "father" of the team who really cared for his "kids" as he'd call them. Suk Yool's superior is a real jerk. Ass.Manager Kang - (a.k.a Baek Ki's superior) another handsome dude but I found him to be hard to understand.
Music: Fly by Lee Seung Yeol - I really liked this song.
Re-watch Value: 4.5 - I don't think I'll be re-watching this one as it was too realistic but if ever I end up in a situation with a job similar to theirs or need a little insight - I may pop back in to take a peak ;)

So this drama was worth watching. Short but Heart touching,Hilarious and cheesy. Adorable and Unbelievable scenes with amazing characters :') A search of true love by a beautiful adorable mermaid. She is one of the reasons to watch this drama.Watching her will make you so happy.
She is just so cheerful and funny! OH and the guys <3
I loved how this show focused on both the guys. She falls in love with both and gets the guy who deserves her at the end.Now i don't want to spoil it for you guys hehe
So basically mostly everyone wants her to be with Chef shi Kyung because he's hot ,their kissing scenes were AMAZING and man she is obsessed with his apple butt XD and his amazing smile(ONE of the reasons why everyone wants her to end up with him)..i mean i started watching We got married to see his smile! For awhile i was rooting for them but then i started rooting for The other Oppa Ha myung. He's sexy strong, funny and so so so caring towards her.
Other than that the other characters are cute and funny especially Park Dae Bak LOL his name is Park Dae Bak XD him and Young <3 This show also focuses on friendship and family <3
How they all stick to each other even when they were struggling.Although the endind was hurried its still worth watching. 10 Episodes of happiness and laughter. I mean it's better than nothing right? ;)
For me,it was and i hope more good dramas are to come!

I love the story-line a lot because it was unpredictable and what it showed was real struggles one has to go through to achieve something. It is perfect example of 'To achieve something, you have to lose something'. The way story went up and down really surprised me because I couldn't predict what will happen next!
Acting over all was good! I really loved Myungsoo's acting, his acting and character impressed me a lot and also I love the way he was paired up with Ye-Rim =3
I loved Lee Min-Ki's carefree and bold character and he is the one who forms the base for this drama also not to mention Sung Joon's impressive character and acting. Other boys were really good at their parts as well!!
Songs of this drama are really really good. The music Eye Candy makes is the real one I mean they really had to sing the songs for this drama. I loved Jaywalking, Love you Like you (L ft Ye-Rim) and WakeUp. They were soo perfect according the situations the characters wrote them.
I recommend everyone who love youth and music based dramas to give this drama a shot and trust me, you would LOVE it!!

I was quite hesitant to start this because and at the same time, I wanted to. A cast that consists majorly of idols can make some people leery, thinking that the show is popular not for its story line, but because of its cast. Thankfully, that wasn't the case here.
First off, I'd like to say that the plot was good. It delivered exactly what it promised. Sure there were the Korean drama cliches in it as well, but this show was good. Due to the long duration of K-drama episodes, there are a few boring moments in between, but I experienced none of those while watching this.
This was my first drama featuring Kim Soo Hyun, who did a wonderful job with his role as Song Sam Dong. He made me laugh, he made me cry and he made me come back for more. I liked how balanced Ok Taek Yeon's character, Jin Guk was. IU and Suzy did wonderful jobs with their roles, but Eunjung kind of fell flat in some places. Park Jin Young was there to make us laugh, and paired with Uhm Ki Joon, these two made a hilarious pair.
The music was beautiful. If you don't find the drama that impressive, then the music will blow you away for sure.
Overall, the drama flows well and is a good watch if you're in the mood for something non-romantic and full of feels.

It isn't necessary for me to name all of the actors, because it is already done. Just know that they all were excellent. I felt connected to each of them in different ways.
The music is appropriate.
It is rewatchable, but I probably won't.
This drama isn't for every one. I can see why some people would get bored with it. However, I highly recommend it.

It was fun, but could've been much better. It opened some interesting plot ideas but didn't advanced into them.

Though I did enjoy the drama, there are quite a few reasons that I felt I couldn't rate it higher than 7.5. The first being the ever recurring annoyance of Japanese dramas, which is the seemingly lower budget presentation. While the costumes and locations were beautiful, the rest of the production had a sort of 'cheap' feel, such as cheesy special effects and sometimes shoddy cinemetography. Also, when the Japanese actors had to speak English, you could barely understand them. Add to that the terrible overacting of the Western actors, especially the guy that played Admiral Nelson. He was especially awful!
I much preferred the second half of the drama as opposed to ths first. The first half had more unreal, fantasy elements, plus I feel the acting was more awkward. By the second half, the true history of Ryukyu took center stage with the magical elements making less of an appearance. The actors seemed more comfortable in thier roles and the story just felt more solid.
I would also like to add that I see this as a more mature drama. Meaning, geared more for adults. While there are no graphic scenes at all, there is one in particular during the first half that is extremely suggestive. In fact, it made me widen my eyes considering this was a historial J drama and not a movie.
Special mention about GACKT's role in this. His character is super creepy. Like, icky, skin crawling creepy. Which is pretty cool as he plays it so well.
I would recommend this drama to any adult viewer that enjoys Japanese history. It's interesting and has some wonderful moments.
