I had my hopes up, but they weren't fulfilled.
May be because I'm not into so serious stories.
It was fine, but too serious. I didn't cry, I didn't laugh. Only smiled at the end.
Fortunately, the end came out better than I thought I would be. I srated to unlike the strory as I found out who he really was. (On the other hand, if he hadn't been who he was, the movie would have lost it's main point I guess) But they drew out the ending just fine.
I loved those scenes in nature and I liked the music.
The main male actor was cute and I love his voice.
I think, that I start liking that movie more as I have closely felt the pain as I lose someone close. As I haven't yet, this story didn't touch my heart as much as someone else's, I guess.
Anyways, if you feel like you need to watch a serious move about losing someone (with an happy ending though), this is just for you. :)

This is definitely an absolutely PERFECT drama. It's comparable with You're Beautiful or Love Rain ( it might be even better, but as the stories are too different it's unable to say which one is really the best)

I love the main couple - this story includes just enough romance, BEST kisses, cuteness, funny moments, thrill, seemingly uninpossible solutions and situations.

Even the evil characters are like action-movie evil and they don't have this fake and unnatural actions (comparing to some other dramas) - and their fate is also exceptable. There's not too much attention on it.

The ending is ingenious enough to bring a tear into your eyes and leave you off with a smile on your face.

The acting and music is superb.
Also this drama has too many cute scenes that even I - a person who rarely rewatches something - might look up my favourite scenes or watch it with my sister if she decides to watch it too due to my convincing. :D

Anyways, thank you for such a beautiful drama!
I certainly recommend anyone to watch it !!!

The most thrilling drama I've ever seen. FOR SURE.

This was a mixture of romance and action. And it was just great. It was soo interesting that I would go crazy if I couldn't see the next episode right away.

The storyline was a masterpiece. Even though there were ONE "solution" at the end I didn't like, I can't say it ruined the drama.
There were sad parts, aslo cute and romatic parts,but mostly it was filled with action - thrilling and interesting parts.

Actors were brilliant!
I'm not a rewatcher and I wouldn't rewatch it because it's not that interesting as you already know what will happen, but there are some scenes I would like to watch again.

I'll give it 9 points because I only give 10 to my most favourite ones. It's very good, but not my absolute favourite. sorry..

But still, I strongly recommend you to watch this drama. It's a drama with a strong and thrilling storyline and it won't leave you unaffected.

I watched it because I'm an absolute fan of "You're Beautiful".

Usually I also write review on every episode, but this time I didn't because I watched this drama kinda hurrying, I fast forwarded the infromative scenes at the beginning and less important scenes and I only watched the thrilling and emotional ones as I knew the story it wasn't just interesting enough. And I didn't want to waste my time. ( I'm also not a rewatcher type - maybe that's why )

I was curious about how japanese managed to act that story. Well it was even more remake of You're beautiful than I thought. They imidated even the smallest details. I have to say the Mio was really like Go Mi Nam. I think she was the person whose acting reminded me the most of "You're Beautiful" Ren succeeded well too. But he can't compete with Geun Seuk. :D

Shu-san and Yuki-san - even though they tried, I didn't like the actors. They were not close to Shin Woo and Jeremy, especially Yuki didn't reach out to the level of being that funny as Jeremy.

This drama went by too fast for me. Many scenes were skipped including some important ones. BUT
I liked that the first kiss scene between Ren and Mio was pushed forward to a time as everyone already knew she was a girl. And the end of the drama, I liked some details more in this drama. - As there was a kiss in the end too and they showed the acene when Mio returned from Africa.

I was sad that there were so less music and I don't know what to think about the different song in the end.

I'm quite sure, that this drama seemed too fast for me because I had seen the real version of this story before and I had already get used to a certain flow of storyline. May be if I had watched this earlier the other version might have seemed to slow.

Anyways, it was worth waching with an intention to see the story I've loved in a different light. But it was more like a parody to me. This certainly doesn't beat the korean version.

You can watch it. It's not that bad, but I do not support making another version of one good drama, as it may spoil the impression of real storyline.

I don't even know how many points I should give this movie.
At the beginning I was a little disappointed because the main characters weren't what I expected - they were a bit strange and funny. Even though they both changed and storyline explained the reason why they were like this.
The storyline was actually also something totally different from what I had expected, but at the end it maintained its deepness. It was more deeper than I thought and I had to think about this story before I realised all the details and the meaning of the last scene.

This movie had a deep message: "The first(true) love doesn't necessarily have to be the the first person." and also the last scene showed that in life you may meet the right guy anywhere just for a moment without realising it. Now when I think about it, the last scene was a nice touch at the end making the movie more deeper.

I also thought about why the man she "looked" for was played by the same actor in those "memory scenes". Later I realised that actually it didn't matter how the Mr. Destiny really looked like. They were only her memories and the point was that she hold onto those memories too much fearing to face the future and her real life, also not doing anything about that Mr. Destiny, trying to maintain those memories without knowing the happy or unhappy ending.

I think this is a kind of movie you should rewatch, because there are so many details you'll understand better as you rewatch it, but I won't rewatch it because I never rewatch movies. (except for if I want to show it to a friend and we watch it together ;) )

I accept and agree with the meaning of that movie, but it's not the best or one of the best movies for me. Those main characters had something missing for me or were too different from what I had expected. Therefore, it was quite fine movie due to its deep meaning but not due to its cast. I liked Gong Yoo in "Coffee Prince", but I didn't like the characther he played in this story, unfortunately.

But all of those people who like the "first love" theme and movies with a deeper meaning, watch it. It will be a heartwarming and interesting story for sure.

Another nice lovestory..
It's nothing special.. it consentrates on the past events and how people differently get through hard times in life and also how to get over them and live on.
I loved many quotes from this movie - it was serious enough to watch it in order to find some comfort as you've lost someone important in your life.
I liked this movie, but it lacked romance and falling for each other in my opinion. They did fall for each other but through seeing each other's pain..
As the opening words are..
"Have you ever cried because someone else's pain? To share the heart wrenching pain of the person you are with. Is it really possible? If it is, someone taught me that it may be that you are truly in love with that person. "

Those words truly discribe that emotion of that movie..

If you're looking for a serious lovestory with a deep meaning, you've found it !

This drama was fun and thrilling enough to watch. I loved the first episodes the most I think because they were really funny and just fun to watch.
The episodes were rather thrilling. The way how this storyline was built was a masterpiece I must say. Be cause 'til the end I didn't know exactly what will happen.
Actors were good and I fell in love with one special song - Ali "Hurt"

BUT why I gave only 7 for overall - because the solution for this story was not my kind of thing. And it's not going to be my favourite drama.
There are certain scenes I would rewatch, but the ending.. I loved the 19th episode - I really cried. But somehow the last episode didn't move me as much as I expected. At first I didn't get it, how it ended exactly - then after thinking about it I understood, but it's still not the same..

Anyways, if you need a drama with fun and thrill about a big mess being cleared up with romantic moments, then it's for you.

My favourite drama for sure. I enjoyed the first 4 episodes - it was something different and just LOVED them. I cried like a baby at the end of the 4th episode.
The rest of this drama was also just superb - Geun Seuk and Yoona are terrific actors and they are so cute to watch. I loved the personalities of the young ones more, but I'm glad that the older generation was different and even after 30 years as another actors played In Ha and Yoon Hee - their personalities stayed the same.
The "bad" characters - I'm glad they didn't stay as bad as they tried to be - I like happy endings for eveyone and if their bad actions are explainable a bit at least.
The storyline was masterpiece - I like these kinds of stories.
I loved the music also - it's memorable and sweet. ;)
Acting like I said was terrific - of course, Geun Seuk is my favourite actor so why should I complain.
And I would rewatch many parts of it :)

Anyways, this drama was perfect for me. I would always recommend anyone to watch it. I know that there are different things people value in dramas - but it's certainly watchable and interesting for anyone who likes romantic dramas.
