i really enjoyed this for the 1st six or seven episodes, i had my doubts in the middle and toward the end i began suspecting that none of the things keeping me watching this show were ever going to amount to anything really great. the main couple never held much interest for me, even Sung Joon, who i've liked in other shows left me less than impressed. his character was sweet and likeable but in a very bland, going through the motions sort of way.the character of Hae Young never quite managed to grab my sympathy and they didnt have much chemistry. the other three couples started out great but though they had a great deal more potential than the main characters, it never really amounted to much. these story lines were tidied up in a very bland way. as for the mothers, i understood where they were trying to go with Hae young's mom, but Mrs. Ha completely baffled me. i could tell they wanted you to like her a feel a little sympathy for her, and maybe if you're korean you do, but i found her character to be completely contemptable. though the writer does get points for not going the usual Evil Omma route, this character was even less likable because she was so much more realistic than a shrieking banshee ahjumma. at the end i was left scratching my head thinking if they had spent less time on hae young being a orange lipped brat they'd have had more time to end everyhting else in a more satisfying way.
