What did I just Watch?

Gun was a stalker. Umm. Not cool dude. Creepy actually. When he finally gets Bar he acts like he owns him. Gun doesn't want him to go anywhere without him. Possessive much? Bar wants to go to the bar with his friends. Nope, Gun says no. Very annoying.

There was no story development. Nothing happened. Gun liked Bar. Gun stalked Bar. Bar liked Gun back. They are together. The end. Nothing happened to show us why Bar began to like him back.

Can we talk about Gun for a second? He is supposed to be the hunk of the school. The casting for Gun was all wrong. I don't want to disparage the actor but he wasn't what I imagine the best looking guy in school to be. The glasses alone ruin that. (And this coming from a person who wears glasses 24/7). He was just this awkward teenager who whined a lot. Oh, and WHY was he wearing pink lipstick through all of episode 4? I understand tint but man they were PINK!!!

Overall this drama felt like it was made in film class. The actors did what they could but weren't given much to work with. The casting was off, the script was WAY off. The acting was ok.

This drama got me out of a drama slump. It was very gritty and down to earth. There was a lot of true life issues. Sometimes watching a show without a lot of fluff is a good thing.

I enjoyed how the little things were solved quickly. We wern't agonizing over the ex-girlfriend for 4 episodes. One was enough.

There was redemption,friendship, true love, and forgiveness. All the things a good drama calls for.

At first I thought it was going to drag. Come on 21 episodes?? I am going to be fast forwarding I just know it! You don't. Each installment is fast paced, and you never feel the need to click forward.

The acting was wonderful. Vic and Barbie were outstanding. Megan and Jie Kie were great supporting cast. Loved them.

Watch it. You won't regret it!!

This is the first Korean movie I ever saw. It is wonderfully shot. The acting is superb.

I loved the storyline. It flowed throughout and there were no slow spots.

The music fit the scenes but wasn't overpowering.

The acting was great. Jaejoong was awesome. His voice is sexy to begin with and add that on top of his characters calm demeanor and you have a deep character that you just kinda stare at! She was awesome too. Han Hyo Joo could laugh or cry when she needed to.
Loved them!

Since I have already rewatched this movie I would say the rewatch value is pretty high.

I give it a 9 just because.

I have been putting off watching this because I thought it would be super hokey with an Englishman as a main lead. I was SOOO wrong!! I loved this drama. I tend to watch dramas doe the emotional outlet that it gives me. If there are historical inaccuracies I don't really care. If it makes me laugh out loud and cry it is a plus. This drama did both. The strong women were awesome, the music set the mood perfectly. The romance was perfection.
The English speaking actors Korean was really good (from what I could tell).
Great show. Great leads. Yan and Park Kyun were easy on the eyes ;).
I will watch again.
