It's over. I've never been so happy for a show to be over. I feel like I just climbed a mountain. I swear from like episode 2 through around 7, the story was entertaining and I actually looked forward to watching it. I wasn't aware that the writers were changed midway through the drama when I started watching the show though. What was an entertaining, comedic, suspenseful, and cute show suddenly became the epitome of cliche romance. The first half of the story had an entertaining plot full of lies and possibilities. I loved that there was rivalry with the friend instead of the normal sappy supportive friends girls are usually given in these dramas. The cliffhangers in these beginning episodes were awesome. The second male had a good start for being in the running for an adversary in love. Suddenly, when the writers changed however, he just disappeared out of nowhere. I should mention that this is after they degraded his character into some sort of pathetic, helpless child full of self pity and no ambition. Many of the side characters began to disappear, and the story began to focus a lot on boring things such as work, very detailed work. Half the time they were working, and when they weren't they shared cute, but cliche and to be honest, pretty boring romantic moments. Well I guess the first time it shocked me, because of the 180 degree change in personality of the male lead. I was excited at first (unaware of the script change) wondering to myself, "Oh boy, I wonder what trick he has up his sleeve this time!" After grinning like an idiot for a while, my jaw dropped realizing that it wasn't an act. He became a servant basically. Sadly, my favorite K drama actress tricked me again and became a selfish person in the end. This made the ending even more unbearably painful to me. I had to take a break at least ten times while watching the last episode. I should've watched Missing You first. Now I'm afraid to watch it because of these last three dramas I've watched with her. She's still my favorite K drama actress, but I felt like she wasn't even that cute in this show. :( I hope she continues to try because I'm afraid that her popularity will go down and she won't be able to get a good role again. That being said, I don't think that it was the actors who were the problem. Yoon Eun Hye is my favorite actress, she's cute, isn't annoying, and can cry well. Although I wasn't a big fan of Kang Ji Hwan (I'm not sure if it was his voice or age, but I didn't find him too attractive), he cried on cue too and was very believable in his actions. Sung Joon was cute in the beginning when he had a good script, but kind of became annoying from the script change. He really had no purpose afterwards, and neither did the whole side girl thing or any of the story in the first half with the contract and everything. I felt like the new writers just tossed the old plot away and started a new uninteresting story altogether. Sorry, back to the acting (I can't seem to get over the script change). The friend was a good actress. I loved how believable her jealousy was with the chin quiver and everything. The aunt was pretty (just thought I'd throw that in there - it's hard for women to age that beautifully >___>). To sum it up, the acting was a 9 for me because I think they did very well to try to make such a cruddy script as entertaining as it could be with their actions. Though some people say that the music was childish, I thought that the ending song in the first half was actually catchy. It was edgy and fit the whole "try to make your friend jealous/ in your face" concept. I also liked one of the slower songs at the end (This is Really Goodbye - M to M). While I do agree that some of the background music just faded into the background and seemed unnoticeable, I felt that the people in charge of the music for this show did a good job matching the music to the mood. Obviously since this show went downhill, the re-watch value for this is a 1 for me. Overall I'd give it a 6 since my favorite actress is in it and the beginning was entertaining. I wouldn't recommend this to people even though it had a good beginning because it'll just lead to disappointment in the end since the story isn't really finished, but rather, they give you a new and bland love story.
