After a long break from watching dramas, this is the first one I gravitated towards. Mostly cause it's been on my "on-hold" list for the longest time, and I needed something to watch that would immediately suck me in and captivate me from start to finish. To be honest, when I watched the first 2 episodes back a couple of months ago, it did nothing for me. I wasn't the slightest bit interested and, quite frankly, I found Lee Seung Gi's character to be incredibly bratty and unbearable to watch... but that was only my assumption. After picking it back up I was immediately pulled into a wonderful storyline and even better acting, and was so regretful of how I had put it on hold for so long and nearly missed out on an amazing drama. Starting with my opinions on the storyline... From start to finish, everything was just executed so beautifully, and the best part... I couldn't predict a damn thing. And I can't stress enough how much I value things like that in dramas. Cause lets be honest here, who wants to watch a drama or a movie where you can just watch it and predict the outcome before you've even seen it yet? No one. Because that's no fun. I love nail biters, and dramas that make me think and leave me clinging for more at the end of every episode because it makes watching the drama so much more thrilling. And you know what else? I cried. A lot. I mean the emotion that the actors had shown really just brought me to tears when the going got tough for them. Given my curiosity always gets the best of me and I end up revealing spoilers to myself before I even have the chance to watch it, I still couldn't help but bawl my eyes out at the really sad (AND COMPLETELY UNPREDICTABLE (btw still really bitter about what happened to you-know-who at the end of the drama, sorry for the tiny spoiler but it had to be said YOU ALL MUST KNOW WHAT YOUR GETTING YOURSELVES INTO)) scenes. I also really enjoyed how they managed to incorporate a lot of things that are relevant to the real world: Love conquers all (cheesy but true), how people are so uptight about maintaining dignity and pride, putting your family's best interest ahead of your own, loyal friendships, and many other things that really stuck out to me as I watched this drama. As for the acting, it was incredible. I felt I was pretty familiar with the casting when I first looked into this drama. The 2 main actors of the drama, Lee Seung Gi and Ha Ji Won, really blew me away with their always awesome acting... But I've gotta say, what REALLY blew me away was Lee Yoon Ji! I mean... Wow. The only drama prior to K2H that I had the chance to watch was Goong, and I don't really remember her character all that much because it's been ages since I last watched it, but I'm glad she's getting the recognition she deserves because she's such an underrated actress, and I'd love to see more from her. I mean as the drama progressed I was much more interested in her fate than I was in the main couple's developing romance. Yoon Je Moon as John Mayer/Kim Bong Goo was such a trip. Usually I always find myself detesting the main antagonist because of their meddling into the main characters' happiness, but I honestly found him so amusing and entertaining... And while he wasn't the smartest villain (cause let's be honest, some of his choices weren't always the best) he definitely provided quite a number of laughs while I watched this drama. The character I was the most disappointed of was Kim Hang Ah... Don't get the wrong idea, though, HJW's acting was really great (not to mention how badass she is), but I just felt like in the beginning she was so strong and independent and knew so well how to defend herself and what was right... And then as her relationship with the Prince evolved, she softened a little bit and just didn't have the spunk she had in the beginning. The music. Was. Phenomenal. I loved hearing it in the drama, and still listen to it on repeat even though the drama's over. My personal favorites were "I Want to Live My Way" by Super Kidd and "First Love" by Lee Yoon Ji. The first song was only played once in the drama, but it always makes me so pumped up when I listen to it, and it's incredibly catchy. As for "First Love"... No words. Just another example of how amazing LYJ is. I found myself always listening to this song, on an endless repeat, and was just captivated by LYJ's lovely voice. Easily one of my favorite songs on the OST. As for rewatching it... I'm not really sure if I would. Mostly because I'm not big on rewatching dramas because it takes away from not knowing what will happen next cause, ya know, you've already seen it... It was a great drama with lots of suspense, but as mentioned earlier, it just brought on too many tears and too much heartbreak. Still bitter over some things, and I suppose I always will be, but regardless this was a drama I won't soon forget. I didn't really think I'd like it all that much, and at first I didn't, but once everything started picking up it became too addicting to stop watching. Even if you're not huge on the whole "politics aspect" it included a lot of controversial real-world problems that I always found to be very interesting. It has a slow start, but after a couple of episodes it will grip you from start to finish and I doubt you'll ever regret watching it.
