Sypnosis:

The conflict comes when the people who living in Min Jae’s house are actually related to Yoo Min’s abandonment. They are the neighbours who stole the inheritance and abandoned her when she was four year old.

My Review:

Ohh … the pains of one-sided love.  All of the main characters in this drama suffered from one-sided love. There was a line in the drama comparing one-sided love to dominoes — each block (person) faces the back of another block (person) and a tremor can cause everyone to fall.  I thought that metaphor perfectly describes this drama.

Anyway, LOVED this drama to bits. I thought the leads had good chemistry and some of the moments when they were together were hilarious and sweet. A bit weird to see Jae Won play a supporting role, but Kye Sang was great as the male lead - I love his goofy and serious side. He is so adorable! As for the female lead, I wasn’t crazy about her at first, but she grew on me.  It’s too bad she committed suicide in real life.

Great storyline … it kept my interest throughout the whole series. I didn’t skip any parts *gasp*.  I only have two complaints: 1) It took her forever to notice that he loves her and she didn’t start falling for him until the last few episodes  2) The ending could’ve been better. After all the things they went through, I was hoping for a super-duper romantic ending.

All-in-all, a must watch.

My Rating: 4.5 / 5 stars
