Dear Heaven (2005)

NO Spoiler in this review

What's not to like about it?! Nothing seriously..In my opinion it`s far and away from many ridiculous very cliche K-dramas that i have seen so far and one of so many reasons i liked this one a lot because it does not have the ridiculous BREAK UP WITH GIRL NO.1 GO BACK TO GIRL NO.2 Or Male/Female EX suddenly appears or returned back from America and again Break up/ reconcile Break up/ reconcile over and over and over again Until the show end.. Makes you feel Very frustrated. Thankfully This Drama was not like that, Not even close,i am not saying there is no cliche plot here No because there is but i won`t mention because it might spoil the show,why is it so hard to keep angst away from the main couple relationship with each other,This was the only drama i watch with 2 lead couple with stable relationship without stripping the show from enjoyment and excitement( Lee Tae Gon) and (Yoon Jung Hee) chemistry was just perfect,their relationship was built realistically from the first episode..Strangers to friends to very close friends to semi lovers to real lovers,They are mature and always Loyal and understanding of each other no matter what happens.why Not make all drama couples like that why!!!!

85 episodes is the longest K-drama i have ever watched and I thought I would be bored but i was not,In the middle of the series it gets more interesting and plot gets more exiting...Slow yes it is but still it kept me on the edge of my seat,felt like watching a thriller not romantic family drama.
I liked Lee Ja Kyung relationship with her Biological Mother Ji Young Sun and how her mother cared a lot for her when she found her, all of their scenes was sad and very heartwarming
There Is No evil/Bad Mother in law here if you read the plot summary you will understand why but Hey if you like these kind of things do not give up yet because there is still an annoying Evil/Bad Grandmother in law.

If you start watching the series be careful, the Character here sure imagine a lot of things some of it funny some is sad some is bad some is good some overly ridiculous,don`t be fooled multiple times like i did and confuse reality as imaginary and Vice versa,I hated this Thing at first but then i discovered it`s the reason why i was able to predict what will happen next only a few times but later i tried but failed and i like that.
It was an amazing drama ,cried a river at a lot of scenes while watching it ,felt compassion with Characters who did not even deserve it. Enjoyed it to the max,it received high rating but it`s underrated on this site only 35 users here watched it till now..many people ignore long dramas but if you`re looking for realistic,very romantic family melodrama with many interesting characters and mature lead couple who trust each others and don't make stupid childish decisions or bicker and misunderstand each other over stupid matters.. then You should definitely give this one a try.

Characters:
(Lee Tae Gon)
Male lead,I liked his acting some of The romantic-cute scenes with the female lead was supposed to be awkward but thanks to their chemistry and his natural acting it was not..could not keep my eyes of them the whole series.. They become one of my all time favorite couple in K-drama.
his like the female lead fortunately he is mature he treat and respect his stepmother like his real mother,he is a bit more childish than Lee Ja Kyung

(Yoon Jung Hee)
while watching The first episode i thought she is a weak female lead but I was wrong despite being an orphan with a tiresome life with a greedy Foster mother,Living with Family who are not related to her at all and jealous second female lead (Wang Bit Na) who always disrespect her, she was hardworking, smart, strong ,determinant with her decisions,acts like a grown up women,very cute and she can be bitchy too slaps and drags people and Threat and Says NO when she wants to.

(Han Hye Sook)
Lee Ja Kyung Biological Mother and Gu Wang Mo Stepmother...Now This is the Character who in my opinion hold the whole plot in her hand,without her there will be No (Dear Heaven) I do not want to write much about her because it will spoil the enjoyment of the show.

(Jo Yeon Woo)
The second male lead,This actor`s Fans might be disappointed to be honest he is not really a main character and his role was not very important here he got few screen time through all 85 episodes,probably even less than other Supporting cast.

(Wang Bit Na)
The second Female lead has a naive and weak personality but her bitchy and arrogant attitude toward the female lead or anyone who she thinks out of her league covers that for her,I disliked her most of the show,she is in love with Gu Wang Mo and tries her best to earn his stepmother`s approval to be his Girlfriend/wife ...Yeah Keep trying Girl.

(Kang Ji Sub)
The second female lead`s Brother,his acting is great he takes the role of a feminine young man,he is the joke of the series..his portrayal of feminine man was natural he did not over do it.i thought he is like that in real life at first but it turned out it was just his role,he is hilarious and funny.

(Yoon Jung Hee),(Lee Tae Gon),(Han Hye Sook),(Jung Hye Sun) and (Ban Hyo Jung) Those 5 are the most important Characters in the drama.


The Ending:
Great Ending ,NO one want to watch 85 episodes drama just to end it with stupid open or tragic ending.

Sorry for my English

MASTERPIECE.........Worth every episode

The writer is such a genius. I noticed it in all of her works so far. She has a knack for small details, doesn’t miss the tiny interactions, the smallest things, and pays attention to them, making every conversation feel REAL. And as usual, gives rise to amusing situations.

Her writing is witty, amusing, and engaging.

The downside of long dramas is that they prolong everything unnecessary and make it hard to be patient.
BUT it’s not the case in this one. This one is inherently slow and takes its time with caution and care, without becoming tiring, dull, boring or repetitive.

I liked everything. It is so slow, but witty that I am keeping up with it. Slow and steady. The good pacing makes you enjoy everything. It sticks to being natural, feeling like a slice of life. Can be watched with ease.

It is not a heavy melodrama like I thought. It gave me beautiful feelings. It deserves it



I’m speechless.
All other great dramas fail in front of this. Beautiful to say the least

No subs no problem. 85 episodes? Bring it on.
I went through extremes to watch it. God it was tiring but worth it on this drama. But did it stop me from enjoying? No. It was one of the best best I’ve seen.. Worth every second. Toxicity free. Meaningful

The mom was basically my reaction machine.

HONEY EYES. Romance of the century

I thank running man very much for introducing this fine man. I was watching episode 99, and I saw Lee Tae Gon for the first time. I was taken back by his physique and manly charm. I was enchanted. So I decided to check his dramas and watched Assorted Gems, and there goes no regrets.
I am in a dilemma. I want to finish it and see what unfolds. I want to say: “I just finished the most perfect drama to exist” but I want to leave it on-hold. A part of me want to cherish for a long time
by saving it for later.
One part is eager to see them till the end, to stay and not leave. Another part doesn’t want to say goodbye forever and finish it.
Every time I sit down to watch I get taken away and forget the world and forget the number of episodes.

Cant do anything but wait and see what the future holds for my longest drama journey ever.
