If you've read the manga you might be a little disappointed with this theatrical version. If you haven't read the manga (or read it and want to watch this anyway) then you definitely should watch it. The romance is so beautiful and their struggles are so difficult that you can't help but scream at them.
The acting is absolutely incredible, the story is heart wrenching, and above all the story is believable.
If you're not sure if this movie is for you watch the first 10 minutes. By the time the 10 minute mark rolls by I think you will realize how touching this movie will be. :)

I'm going to be completely honest; I didn't even make it halfway through the show before I started crying. Even though you know the main character is going to die and that the show will most likely be sad, you have no idea how much you are going to cry! I can't even begin to imagine how horrifying it would be to get a cancer diagnosis and how difficult it would be to literally fight for your life only to know that you are going to die young. The cast was phenomenal. Let me say it again; the cast was phenomenal! If you decide to watch this (and you should!) make sure you have plenty of tissues handy and something happy to look at once you're done.

Whoa buddy. This series was....uh...well...um... Originally I wanted to watch this because I find vampires interesting. However this series did not hold my interest. The story was good, but the mega-cheese acting decided to show up in full-force and I could not handle it! Normally I can deal with a little cheese-ball acting but there was so much of it that I literally had to drag myself through the show. I wanted to drop the series so badly but I felt like I might be missing out on a great story if I stopped. Once I completed the show I felt that I possibly wasted my time. Oh well. If you like cheesy acting, embarrassing special effects, and a random (sometimes confusing) storyline then you should watch the show. If you don't enjoy those things I would definitely pass on this one.

Hm, what was it? Music? Story? Cast? Ah, what was it?! Something...fell short during the movie. For some reason I didn't get emotionally attached to the characters, which is odd for a romance movie. Usually you root for the characters and cry when they cry and laugh when they laugh. However that didn't happen here. I wish I could figure out why! Overall the acting was amazing, the story was decent (though it did drag from time to time), and the music was unremarkable. To be completely honest I don't recommend this movie. I feel like I wasted 2 hours of my day. Oh well. It was worth a shot.

Well worth a watch

I'll admit, it's been a while since I finished this series. This was one of the first Korean shows I picked to watch. I found it absolutely amazing. It constantly surprised me. I loved the acting, the music was great, the story line was interesting, the fight sequences were well done, the special effects were surprisingly impressive, the pacing was spot on and, oh my god, that bad guy was top tier in my book. As is the norm with Asian shows there is always a touch of cheesiness sprinkled in (which is not to my personal taste), but it wasn't overbearing so I honestly could overlook most of it. I do strongly recommend this one. It was an overall great show to binge.
