What can I say, I think this is one of the great dramas of this year. I marathoned it for two days as I just could not stop watching. This is a melodrama which has great depth. All the characters are brilliantly potrayed and played. The actors have delivered excellently as you love the main leads and hate all the characters to be hated. The writing and direction is brilliant, the dialogues so intense they give you shivers at times and butterflies at others. There are times you are frustrated at the hero for being so helpless in his love, and times when the romance is so touching you get a lump in your throat, and times when you burn with hatred at the vamp, how low and disgusting you can get to attain your obsession.(sometimes it got too much and I would just ff her scenes, i cant stand too much heartburn) The stories about the side characters was really good and well played. They provided the needed lightness to the otherwise heavy drama. The songs are really well suited to scenes, and very touching. the background music is also really wonderful. Now why I gave it a 9 instead of a 10: the ending was a bit rushed, I would have preferred if they had reduced some of the flash backs and given more time to the story at the end of the drama. Although all resolved, there were many questions how things were resolved. It was a happy ending (thank god, I would not have had it any other way) although lots of melo lovers would have loved a tragic one.
