i found this drama so incredibly disappointing, mostly because the first act was so refreshing and funny. for the 1st 12 or so eps i was thinking this could be my new favorite drama. the second act morphed into something draggy and boring. getting to even the smallest plot developments was like pulling teeth. but i kept going, looking forward to the time jump to 2005 promised by pretty much every synopsis not on MDL. it never happens instead we get dragged into the third act that gets just weird and weepy but still somehow draggy and boring at the same time.


the actors were great but i just got so sick of watching them dance around the same issues for five or more episodes. the drama i finished bore almost no resemblance to the drama i started.

So you say you are too busy to watch a Korean Drama? And your own life is too hectic and emotional for you to invest in a drama? Then this is the perfect little getaway for you.

Simple story, light and not too heavy. Writing is a bit weak and superficial but the acting is good and the time goes by quickly. Only four episodes, easy to watch and you come away feeling like you were entertained but without any added baggage.

I believe they really could have done more with this drama, It could have easily been 8-15 episodes and we would have gotten to know the characters better. So many opportunities to develop the story more, but with only four episodes it was not possible. Still a nice way to spend an evening or two.

Oh My...I watched this and I cried like a baby...really touching show. I couldn't stop thinking about this drama for weeks. It really touched me.

While I did find a few questions and flaws in the story line the emotion more than made up for it. The last 20 minutes were beautifully acted.

I strongly recommend this drama, just have your tissues with you when you do.

I am fairly new to Korean Dramas, I have watched some over the past few years but the past year I have started to watch them regularly and now find myself wanting more and more.

So I started to watch Trot lovers and found myself drawn to this drama because of the cast. Yes the writing was not the best, the story had some really interesting parts but was overall thin and the ending...don't get me started on that.

But as I watched this show, I became very fond of the lead character Choi Choon-Hee (Jung Eun-Ji) I have seen her of course with A-Pink but never as an actress...she was simply amazing, she stole every scene, of course her singing was fantastic, it always is, but it was her style that made this whole drama. I think that she was the perfect person for this role. Again, AMAZING! She was very good with Ji Hyun-Woo. I really liked his acting when he was being warm and tender toward her.

I do believe that this drama has rewatch value, but only for the songs and for some of the funny and or romantic scenes.

I recommend everyone to try this drama, give it some time even if just for the music.

Not a typical teen romance, inasmuch that it takes itself quite seriously - as someone else has said. It's quite a mature story and the writing is really intelligent. At first it seemed like it would be a retelling of The Taming of the Shrew, but it quickly developed into it's own story - although still remaining quite Shakespearean. Although others here have mentioned that it's really slow and dull, I honestly didn't find that. Whilst I felt the two lead characters were a little flat (Mike He the better of the two), the supporting cast were quite gripping and there was enough going on to keep me invested - even if the show wasn't great at tying up loose ends for subplots.

Under the surface, it discusses quite a few deeper themes that don't get explored so often. Gender and misogyny in particular are issues that are really probed into by the show's subtext, and it makes for quite thought provoking viewing. Whilst it would be a stretch to call it 'feminist', it's quite blunt in tarring men with a bad brush from the first episode to the last.

It also lapses into surrealism a little bit, which is really unique. Whilst other shows have dream sequences, flash backs etc, this show tackles them in quite a different way and they can be very strange at times, which definitely kept me watching.

Again, I didn't find it slow - to the contrary I found it pretty well paced. Everyone developed at a reasonable rate and enough time was devoted to everyone to see some good character progression from both the main and supporting cast. It also wasn't too predictable and when you thought you had the show figured out, there still managed to be some shocking twists and turns. Everyone here seems to be complaining about the ending, but I loved it - very intelligent end if you pay attention to it.

Acting was a mixed bag, but reasonably solid - Mike He and Ariel Lin as I mentioned had their bad moments. Music I can't say I enjoyed too much and the editing was also quite shoddy at times - especially at the end. A few good songs though and they were used well at times.

Not particularly keen to rewatch it anytime soon though - maybe because it's a bit darker and more mature than the average romance shows I watch.

Overall though, I was really impressed by this show. The intelligence of the writing and the solid story structure were great, whilst the show in general just felt really well fleshed out. I wasn't as invested in it as I could have been, which is unfortunate, but I still feel this is a very underrated show and definitely one of the best I've seen.

I'm a huge Anne fan. I've seen just about all her lakorns and I think she's a fabulous actress. I've seen Tik in one or two shows before and his acting is good as well, but together these two just didn't work for me. I know a lot of fans were clamoring for this pairing, but the chemistry between these two just wasn't that good. I honestly don't know if it's just not there or if it was that the plot was a hot mess. There were spots of nice chem here and there, but nothing consistent.

Speaking of the story. I was confused for the first few eps and then frustrated for the rest of the show. I thought it was just silly that Suri didn't try to explain herself more often. I know it was for dramatic purposes, but it's just sloppy writing. I also hated how demure Suri was. Chem was just a major jerk who just got all kinds of ideas in his head and ran with them. I didn't care for either of our lead characters here.

What's funny is that I actually liked Rita's character more here. She was funny and kinda feisty. Still dumb for dealing with Chem, but she wasn't at all pressed about him and she seemed like a woman that knew she deserved the best because she had a lot to offer. I don't really remember much about the other supporting characters. They were annoying or just didn't register. Personally, I tell fans that want to see Tik and Anne pair up to skip this one and pray that they team up again. If you're gonna watch in, go in with low expectations.

Opinion after watching - I'm so glad I watched this. Thanks to MDL community, I discovered this gem of a drama.

Reason for watching - I decided to watch this drama because I was looking for a drama that is short (each episode here is around 25 minutes).

My Favorite character - Suga, for I'm more like her. Narumi, for I can't resist him and his intriguing personality.

Story - I usually don't watch mysteries. But I loved that this was set in and around high school.

The story is one of the strongest points of this drama. With an unusually cool heroine who prefers to be aloof lest she get hurt, I could relate to her. The drama revolves around a handful of characters who we get to know incident by incident. It has the perfect mix of romance and mystery and has an contemplatory tone to it too.

Acting/Cast - It's the first time I watched a japanese drama where I knew none of the actors. But I came to like all of them, especially Yuma and Honda. Even though the acting isn't what you'd call stellar, you can see that they've got room to grow in terms of expressing and emoting.

Characters - I loved Narumi and Suga. They were so well thought out characters and surprised me with their complexities. Narumi is a fascinating character and no wonder Suga was drawn to him. I just wished the romance part got more focus in the second half, but it's not something that detracts one's enjoyment of the story.

Music - I just loved the OST for Piece. Be it the Matchbox Twenty songs(Parade and I Will) or Nakayama Yuma's songs - Missing Piece and Mizu no Kaeru Basho(The Place The Water Returns To). The songs used in the background suits and enhance the mood of the drama perfectly.

Rewatch Value - I would definitely rewatch this drama after sometime. Just for the main couple. :D
Also, the cinematography is simply great.

Overall - It's one of the best jdramas I've watched. It is very underrated IMO and I hope it gets more love from viewers. Get on the bus and see where it takes you! You won't regret it. ;)

I've seen about three dramas with Lan Blue in them. He's not a very strong actor, but there's something that I like about him so I watch his work. He's improved a bit over the years. I really liked him here, and perhaps it has to do with his lead actress, Nagasawa Masami. They worked well together and she's a great actress. I liked the chemistry between the two, but I wish the writing had done just a little more with them.

The story itself was simple. A gang of gangsters trying to go straight, mainly because that;s what the boss wants. There were ups and downs and I appreciated that. It made the story more enjoyable. There was just something about the struggle and them making a family of their own together that really pulled me in.

I really liked the music here, especially the ending theme. The song is beautiful and the lyrics are really touching. I thought it described the relationships between the two leads perfectly. I found their romance really appealing because they were both trying to be really selfless. They wanted the other safe and happy, even if that meant they couldn't be together. The supporting characters were also great (super funny) and the ending was perfect.

All in all, I say give this a try. I haven't read the manga and when I first heard about this I didn't see the appeal. I decided recently to watch the first ep since I hadn't watched a twdrama in a while and ended up watching all 15 eps in 3 days.

Story: The story revolves around a young boy who was 'cursed' with a mysterious aura suppressed within him. Because of this curse, he secludes himself from others and yearns to be normal. After he is accused of murder due to his 'curse', he runs away in an attempt to discover the truth behind the murder, and along the way he finds love, friendship and family. In his journey to find the truth, he uncovers more than he has ever imagined - his 'curse'.

Acting/Cast: I literally fell in love with every character in this - from the main characters to even the minor supporting characters. Yang Mi and Li Yi Feng were a very sweet couple but a little dull at times. But I can't help but love them. They have a very rather bitter sweet relationship. Not sure why, but it did get a little annoying hearing her call "Su Su" all the time.. XD My favourite 'couple' were probably Zheng Shuang and Ma Tian Yu... their cute bickering was adorable. I love how naturally they appeared with one another that I always looked forward to watching their scenes the most. Who impressed me the most in this was probably Qiao Zhen Yu - I have never seen him nor heard of him before but his portrayal of his character was brilliant. *SPOILER* He played one of the best villians I've seen IMO. It doesn't hurt that he's quite good looking too!

Music: I actually loved both the opening and ending songs - they were beautiful. Though I don't really know who the singers are as I'm not very familiar with Chinese music. I love the sound of chinese oriental music so much! Even the background music that was played during any battles was rather upbeat and 'exciting'.

Rewatch Value: I don't rewatch shows much because I don't have time to and there's always so many new dramas coming out. But, I would be willing to sit through this again with english subs as I'm sure I must of missed something because I'm not 100% fluent with chinese especially when modern speech isn't used.

Overall: I highly recommend this drama especially if you like the ancient fantasy type dramas (aka wuxia). The story was wonderfully written and the actors did an amazing job with giving us this drama. Like any other wuxia dramas, the costumes are beautiful! I guess the only drawback is the 'awesome' CGI effects that they used - very typical CGI in these dramas. I know some people who cannnot stand the CGI, but to me they were beautifully created so I don't mind too much.

I liked this drama a lot more than I had anticipated. It doesn’t have that many reviews and not many people have watched it, but I am certainly glad I decided to. The synopsis doesn’t really give the drama justice. It makes it sound like Man Qing, our female lead, didn’t get enough love from her adoptive parents and leaves home to find paternal love elsewhere, when that couldn’t be farther from the truth. Rather, what we have is a set of interwoven stories between Man Qing’s life and the choices her mothers made and Yu En’s (our male lead) life that was inversely affected by his father’s and stepmother’s choices.

The drama’s title, “An Innocent Mistake” (or the Chinese title “A Beautiful Sin,” which also sounds like “Most Beautiful” when spoken; a nice little pun ^^) doesn’t make sense until the very last few episodes of the drama in its explosion of a climax. But everything leading up to there was, to me at least, wonderfully engrossing and intriguing. There are times I couldn’t believe how twisted the drama was presenting itself as, yet at the same time appreciating the places it went. It definitely didn’t hold back on the darkness lurking beneath the drama’s surface plot.

I think the main point of the story is how two people being in love will always somehow and in some way hurt another person, whether that love be paternal, maternal, romantic, obsessive, idealized, etc. It also addresses how easily it is for that love to transform into hate; and how, in order not to hate, you have to take the situation you saw before your eyes and see it in the other person’s shoe too. The plot was magnificently layered in that way. More that that, it also had a logical beginning, middle, and conclusion, as well as probably one of my favorite TW-drama endings yet. It wasn’t even draggy, though it was a bit slow moving. I felt the pace was just right to build up to the ending. (I should probably point out that the version I watched was 26-episodes at 40 minutes a pop, rather than the 16-episode, 90 min version listed here). It also has some melodramatic elements, but nothing too unbelievable.

The other part of the drama I’d like to gush about are the actors. Not every single person who appeared on the screen was brilliant, but the main cast and most of the supporting cast definitely were. Mo Zi Yi as Yu En had all my feels the moment he fell for Man Qing and you could see every conflicting emotion playing on his face. Lin Chen Xi as Man Qing was an excellent choice to play a stoic young adult who is, basically, a classic tsundere-type character. Mo Zi Yi and Lin Chen Xi as the leads also had incredible chemistry together, which made the drama an even more joy to watch.

The three actresses playing Man Qing’s mothers all filled their roles very well as seasoned actors. They acted so well it felt like they really were surrogate sisters who were healing their broken pasts by living with each other. About the only weak link in the drama both story-wise and acting-wise was Chen Yu An as Zhang Wei Wei, who was used mainly as a plot pusher and whose acting was noticeably weaker than her co-actors. But she only appears at the beginning of the drama then is pushed to the background, so you don’t have to endure her to too long, thankfully.

The music was also not something to exactly write home about either. I liked the opening song well enough, and the ending song had some nice lyrics, but it was just... ordinary. I did like that the drama didn’t overuse those songs like other dramas do sometimes, though. The directors knew when the use the lyric-version and when to use the instrumental-version.

There aren’t that many negatives in this drama, so I’m not sure why it’s so under-watched. It’s not exactly a light and fluffy watch, so I guess that’s kind of a detriment. I would suggest to only watch it with an open mind and being able to have persistence even when the drama feels like it’s going way off onto the weird track. It gets back on the right track with all the finesse a drama with depth should.

Wow, what a story!!! First off let me say that this drama was my 200th completed drama and I am proud to say it ;D
Story: It starts off in 1943 with the younger cast, shows the background of how things began - the friendship that was shown in the beginning was so good and it continues throughout the entire show to the end where it's 1973 - lot's of bromance with a little romance thrown in - but the basis of this story was about a Steel Manufacturing Plant being built (which I believe is supposed to represent POSCO).
Cast: Park Tae Hyung the real star of the show - I loved his character, he was loyal, trustworthy and smart - he could win anyone over and it was shown in how he got his team. I loved the entire cast - whether good or bad they played their roles exceptionally well. I found out while watching this drama that this was actually Lee Ki Chan (Ahn Seung Joo) (ballad singer)'s official acting debut - let me say - for this being his acting debut he acted like a PRO - no joke - he never looked awkward.
Music: I loved it - every song - but the main one I remember is by Lee Ki Chan ;)
Re-watch Value: 10 - I would love to re-watch this drama with subs - it's great without but I would love to understand some of the dialog that went on ;)
Have you ever watched a drama where by the end you were shedding tears of happiness? well this drama did that to me - they showed flashbacks of the show and some of the real events captured on old film and I was sitting here smiling with tears rolling down my face fast lol
It's a great drama - I'd highly recommend people to watch it!!!!
