    dramas will always be dramas.. can't come close to reality.. we just have to put our imagination to think that they actually look masculine..

    Yes, YEH does do well in the series, very convincing but the male lead is boring (imo not attractive) and some parts especially with Hong guy is kind of sick.

    If there was another lead and the other actor to play the cousin, I think this series would attract more viewers.

    hmm, i have to say that YEH looks more convincing playing a "guy" than other girls in other series which the girl is pretending to be a guy but still looks like a girl!!!

    although, that hairstyle really does not suit her at all. lol

    this series seem alright.

    while this series is cute.. i dont think it's the best out of the year. "capital scandal" is really great but yet it was so underrated.

    Tuoimong: Goodness, I can't believe i'm actually doing this "watching it raw and reading the summaries" thing.

    Even by doing that, this series is so good. After epi 10, I'm so anxious to know what is going to happen next so I watched 11, 12 raw.

    Wow, after watching epi 12, as much as I love watching this series, I wish that it would just end at ep 12. It's just perfect right now.

    Every important issues has some kind of resolution already. The two leads are so happy together now knowing the truth.


    However, there are 6 eps left, i'm scared to find out what the writer has in-store for us. I hope that whatever it is, it's not going to be cheesy and ruin my love for this series so far.

    Forget about what I just said ; I'm enjoying this drama very much. Its not the best ... but better than most of the other current ones. I'm at episode 10, and I'm hoping that it will move to what I'm expecting .

    I am up to episode 12 too. The series is kind of predictable from this point onwards. I don't want to spoil the next few episodes since I read the storyline on someone's blog. For some reason, I am getting bored with the series since I read the spoilers for episode 13 and 14.

    Yes, I would stop at episode 12 but there are unanswered questions about Han kyul's parents, etc. HK still needs to make up with his father and find out about his birth. This is span the rest of the episodes.

    At first, I didn't think it would be a popular show since the storyline was kind of boring. But seeing that they did expand the series, I guess I don't have the same taste as most. I thought the side stories like the coffee concert was lame and boring.

    I agree with you, tuoimongmo2007, the majority of the drama is about flirting, hey should I be gay, and working in the coffee shop. I think it was good that YEH took on this role cause it was challenging. Her character and acting are the reasons why this series got okay ratings. And yes, it is hyped up too much. The Vineyard Man was a better series than this even though the ratings were less. The series should end soon and the director should NOT extend the series (all hype). I don't think it cost much to make this series since the entire series has only a couple of locations: Han Kyul's car, the coffee shop, the cousin's house, and Eun Chan's house.

    Ok, can someone please tell me what's the relationship btw

    Hyul's biological father and adopted father? Aren't they brothers? so then why on Episode 13 ---According to dramabeans' summary,
    "Han Gyul tells her everything he’s learned today — his adopted father was friends with his birth parents, who’d divorced within a year, after which his birth father left for Australia. Shortly thereafter, his mother passed away in an accident, and his current family took him in and raised him as their own. " I swore I thought they were brother...
