I have to be honest, I stopped watching after episode five, because my heart couldn't take the tension any more. This is definitely one of the best psychological thrillers I have seen, but it is not romantic, or funny, in any way. A full on sociopath gets obsessed with a girl, and manipulates everyone around her so he can get close to her. She is too scared and confused to stand up to him. I read the spoilers, and to my surprise he DIDN'T murder anyone. The male lead is THAT scary.
If you are like me, and like to watch silly, light, romantic stuff, don't watch this. If you like to not be able to sleep at night, I highly recommend this.

The plot and resolution for this would have been acceptable for a movie, but for an entire TV series it's just too much. If you like watching the lead character make excuses for a psychopath boyfriend who ruins other people's lives for her you may like this; otherwise go watch something else. The writers must like bad things happening to good people, as that's the majority of what happens here. You can watch a few episodes to get an idea of what it's like, but after episode 4 or 5 it's pretty much all the same, with the ending providing no resolution or closure.
I have seen so many korean shows, but this one is so different. It is funny at times, sometimes it's scary and at most times it is the sweetest drama ever. Till the last episode it kept me engaged. Kudos to the makers of the drama!

Two words - Different and realistic. I could feel both the male and female leads. It's not the perfect relationship usually portrayed in Kdramas. But one which makes you think about what love actually is. Glad I gave it a watch! Absolutely loved the acting of male lead.

I don't think so. I love the manhwa series. The main girl is likeable and relatable but in the drama... seriously?? Why though? I feel like they dumbed down Seoul. Yeah in the beginning she just let everyone pick on her and I remember her growing though. I'm only in the 3rd episode and I'm frustrated. The acting is good, though but I don't like how the characters are protested. I think the only spot on characters are Bora and ahyoung, but other than that, it's a no. I like how complex the main male lead is and every character is complex in the manhwa, but they changed the story around and I know when doing an adaptation the story should have differences, but to me it's too different idk. I'm not feeling it.

It started out very promising, but after some episodes they totally lost me. I almost stopped watching. Although after about episode 11 luckily I regained interest.
There was no lovely chemistry between the ML and FL. Most of the time I felt awkward about how he acted. What a toxic relationship they had! And over and over again she excepted the way he mistreated people.
The most annoying character for sure was the sister. Omg, the way she acted?! And this from the beginning until the last minute!
It was bad enough that it wasn't a lovely story, the ending felt incomplete. But then again, I didn't mind the series was over. Normally I have withdrawal symptoms from being sucked into a series, but this one was easy to let go.
The only reason to watch the series: Seo Kang Joon. Loved his character: his smile, his will to be independent, his caring for her and his sister 😍 He really was the reason I kept watching after some disappointing episodes... and kept hoping. Unfortunately for nothing much.

Frustrates me no end to see that the rating isn't higher for this show. I know the ending was not perfect but aside from that there are no complaints. The cast was awesome and so was the story. I would definitely recommend this show to any one who loves a good drama.

One of the best kdramas to watch,if you are a fan of kdramas then do give a watch, you won't regret because it is not a typical kdrama with Lovey dovey but leads do have a good chemistry. Well written and once you start watching it you will totally love it,many people found ending was ruined, but as i have said its not typical so you might found it different but otherwise it was soo good,just ignore the bad comments and watch it!

Screenplay, acting, plot were good.
Loved watching kim-go-eun's acting perfectly aloof, introverted,...
It was disheartening to see the star-crossed love still had a little road left In it's journey to Happy ending despite the bumps they had to endure to truly look through each other and find one another.
Also frustrated with few depressing reviews which think

- it was a perfect ending.
- the female lead still remaining a pushover at the cost of her self respect.
- lead Being misunderstood as the Psychopath, insecure, blah blah.... Instead of just different, for his defensive plots as a reaction against people who only take advantage of him for his pockets and power. When it's the second lead who is so full of himself, who approaches to get close to people around the lead only to annoy & hurt him.
- second-lead's love over lead's love. When infact it was the lead who goes above and beyond to actually help her realise to value herself and not let others take advantage.
- norrowminded definition of love that it can be beautiful and acceptable only if it's all lovy-dovy.

My spouse is the kdrama fan, not me. I tend to find them a bit saccharine, corny, or over the top. That said, this was INCREDIBLE.
The character development was so nuanced and complex, watching the series was almost like reading a really good book. They don't explain everything, they leave some things for the audience to connect the dots on, and I really appreciated that.
My one complaint was the ending felt like I needed just a little more closure than I got, even though I understand, I think, why they did it the way they did. I just would have loved to see the look on her face when the one thing happened in that last moment.

I started the drama for Park Hae Jin but his character scared me off literally. Had such expectations but the writer did an awful job with hia character. Even rich spoiled brat characters r loved as well if they r actually well written but the writers just drowned this series. Worst K drama I have ever watched. Only good thing was Seo Kang Joon.

If ever there should be a second series, this one was crying out for it! Everyone's stories needed another stage of conclusion. From Seol to Jeong's dad. Even ten years on could even include a few flashbacks to where series 1 left off.
I go aback to this series again and again. It needed more later.

This writers of this show are brilliant, I love the way they captured the characters stories, I really didn't want her to end up with either of them. Sometimes people come into your life to help you grow and you must not end up with them. Loved the show

It may seem at first like a rich guy, poor girl usual story but it isn't. I was left hanging about the leading man's credibility. The unfolding of the truth of this character was set at a good pace, making the series exciting to watch.
