Heard it Through the Grapevine (2015)

Different take on rich ML/poor FL

This drama should have been named "The art of manupilation". Everyone in this drama, is manupilating someone else. I was pleasantly surprised by this take on rich guy/poor girl, as it's different.
The humor is very understated, so you kinda have to understand humor to find it in this drama. LOL
The music is a mixture of alien and the 50s, kinda weird.
If this drama was even 10 episodes shorter, I would have rated it 9/10, but it's really too long. Over all I do recommend it, as it's interesting to see how easy people can be manupilated.
This would have been 100 daily soap, so for those who like soap operas, this is highly recommended.

Brilliant music! Unique sense of humor! exceptional taste of drama.

disclaimer: I've watched 14/30 episodes

It slightly reminds me of Prison Playbook; the comedy and how everything happens quietly.
It is also a bit realistic. Not too much that it takes out the dramatic effect, but only enough to make us relate.

The dark setting also gives a unique vibe to it. I seem to only like to watch in the dark.

The father is the most hilarious thing; and their relationship with the baby is so cute.
The atmosphere between the workers is not portrayed excessively unrealistically.
And most importantly, an adorable couple that hooked me up to the drama.

Everything is perfect. There are many moments that touch your heart and make you smile really wide. Every moment is enjoyable.

Loved it!

I have to start with Yoo Joon Sang’s performance in this drama. The actor never disappoints me. One minute he’d have me hating him, then the next he’d have me laughing my head off.

I usually get tired of the wealthy family and their machinations a quarter way through the drama . I think what kept me watching was the dynamic between Han Jung ho and everyone around him. The parents’ obtuseness when it came to their children especially his son cracked me up. Yet they became typical grandparents when it came to Jin young.

I do think it was a little draggy but the ending was perfect because Jung Ho still didn’t get it even after his wife left him. Not that she was any better with her children than he was. Their inability to accept any responsibility for their actions no matter how many times they were told it always came down to blaming Bom.

I also liked how the music would be kind of eerie in the house when the parents were somewhere close or about to enter a room.

I’ll probably watch it again.
