Stairway to Heaven

The male lead always "rough housed" the girl. I feel hurt physically just by looking at it. They have a strong chemistry but the I think that in the end her destiny was the second guy. It could have stopped at a happy ending but they really have that kind of ending I guessed to fit the title. I also watched the other kdrama of the female lead and I noticed that she act the same way even she had different roles. She cries well though. The story is also absurd at times but maybe it is more of Korean culture.

I don't know what to say.I came into this drama knowing what to expect,but couldn't imagine how hard it would hit me to the stomach."Stairway to Heaven" is a classic of its own,that takes over the list of star-crossing love-story over all other love-stories that have been aired in Korea and throughout Asia.Every 20 episodes is worth it...you live into their world of splendid happiness,pain,heartbreak,grief,hate,jealousy and bitter-sweet love that easily destroys the individs "Stairway to Heaven" is surronded by.The cast is simply amazing,and in my mind Choi Ji-Wo and Kwon Sang-Woo and Shin Hyun Joon are the true stars in the drama,all of their performances are heartfelt and expressive.All of them shined together on-screen,and delivered amazingly.By the way,i found the main-characters Jung-suh and Song-joo very beautiful together,wheww what a mind-blowing chemistry they have!!!

Jung-suh (played by Choi Ji Wo) is an admirable heroine with her heart on her sleeve.Every man easily could fall in love with her,as her beauty is inside and out.Her strength and bravery and care-free nature is what lures Song-joo into her net,he is her beloved child-hood friend..and her lover and soulmate.Even falling into the clutches of amnesia,her heart still belonged to Song-joo.

"From the moment i saw you,i thought you were Jung-Suh and that thought hasn't changed at all...I look like a crazy fool,huh?I think i am gonna go crazy,I don't think i can live anymore!What should i do?What do i have to do?Do something to me!" - Song Joo

Song-joo (played by Kwon Sang Woo) is a hero to die for and i love him so so so much.The actor playing him is so deliciously handsome,and showed the eternal love and longing Song-joo have towards Jung-suh so well that i cried for him.He can't live without her,and we all root for him to find his beloved Jung-suh again,after she was so cruelly taken away from him.

When 'Stairways to Heaven' was first aired in Korea,it broke TV ratings records,not only that,when aired in the region,it received great viewer ship too.Though I would not say that its plot is original,yet it is much captivating and moving compared to other drama of the same kind-'Winter Sonata' and 'An Autumn's Tale'.It is a drama full of ups and downs,portraying four young adult's struggle in face of love.Four different adults,having their different perspective towards love and how they present their love.A purist,a sentimentalist,a selfless admirer and an opportunist.The drama slowly reveals their characteristic and what fate holds for them.The best actor in the show would be Kwon Sang Woo.When interviewed,one of the 'Stairways to Heaven'staff said,"Because Sangwoo cried so sadly, all the staff cried too." Indeed,his acting skills received much praises.Therefore,don't miss this drama,for its a once in the life time show.

This is an iconic Korean Drama from the early 2000s. It's cliched and throws everything at the viewer from the evil step mother and step sister to amnesia and step brother step sister love. The beach house is nice but the Lotte World scenes are repetitive. Too many episodes. Choi Ji Woo mainly cries and shouts Oppa! during the last few episodes. Her character is so annoying and frustrating. How can so many people be in love with her. Interesting to see Park Shin Hye's early role. The younger characters were more convincing actually. At least there is a nice song from this crazy show.
