Review:


I also heard of this drama from a cousin of mine in the Philippines, so I decided to watch it. At first I thought that this drama had a second season, so I didn't exactly want to watch the first season. But turns out it only has one season, so I did end up watching it. The characters are really worth watching for. How Yu Rin was caught stealing the oranges from Gong Chan's family garden made me laugh so hard :) That was one of my favourite parts in the drama, including Jung Woo's love for Yu Rin. Lee Joon Ki starred in the korean movie "Virgin Snow" and was really good in it. He actually looks better now, but only a bit though. The Philippines even made a remake of this drama, it was good too. Just that the guy who played Jung Woo didn't look manly enough LOL ♥ I really didn't want this drama to end, the ending was perfect for me. It wasn't like the main characters died like what commonly happens during korean drama's like "Stairway to Heaven", and "A Love of Kill". The ending was short and sweet, my type of ending :) Even though I never even heard of the main guy playing in the drama's that I've watched, he was an excellent choice to play Gong Chan. His role became pretty dramatic towards the end, which made me love him more :P I'd watch this drama again for sure :)
