I have to say that this is a very refreshing drama if you start watching it with an open mind and an open heart (does that sound weird?). At first I was suspicious of how this drama will turn out but I found it to be a good surprise. It was funny and light-hearted and it just made me feel good. Moreover I haven't watched a drama that made me feel this way.
I loved the characters and the interactions between each of them and there weren't really any characters that I couldn't stand at all. It was just that I liked some more and some less. Even the "evil" characters were somehow lovable. At least in my opinion. What I enjoyed the most was the relationship of Nam Da Jung with the kids and the way they grew to like her. That was really cute. Also her relationship with the prime minister was awesome. I loved the way they handled their problems and actually TALKED things out. Yes, you read right. They talked, which happens rarely in the land of korean dramas. And that was a really great experience for me.
I also loved that you could see how the characters changed throughout the drama. I don't think that anyone stayed the same as in the beginning. But I think some character developments were better than others. For some of the characters it just felt like their development was rushed or like they didn't really change but the circumstances changed and made them behave differently which made them seem like they developed even if they didn't really (does that make sense?).
I guess I could and would have rated this drama differently if it weren't for the last few episodes (I blame the one-episode-extension). As I said this drama was somehow a new experience for me that I liked very much. But something changed in the last few episodes that I can't really point my finger at. It felt as if the characters kind of behaved out of their character. They did things that they shouldn'T do.
Furthermore there were one or two plot twists that I hate in any korean drama.
But still, I don't think that the ending was half as bad as most of the people who have watched this drama said. It just wasn't at the same niveau as the rest of the drama but it still was quite ok.
It's not the ending itself that I disliked, but some events in the last few episodes that spoiled the drama a bit.
All in all I am very glad that I watched this drama and I don't regret one second of the time I spent on it.
