    KDrama at its best to date!

    Having watched so many TV dramas for decades, this is a real gem. Don't listen to the haters. Amazing production (notice the details of everything, even the home appliances exude luxury), the story (though its a remake of BBC's Dr Foster, but which remake is better than the original? This), and most importantly, the Mind Blowing acting especially from Kim Hae Ee. It's not your average Kdrama. It's an emotional roller-coaster, keeping you at the edge of your seats through all episodes, it's the best. Hell of a ride that you will never regret!

    Not your standard Kdrama- Loved this!

    This series is not like your typical Kdrama series! The plot is unique and will leave you intrigued as to what will happen next. Actress & actors are amazing! The series will make you think about class & gender issues as well as marriage of course.

    From brilliance becomes boring.........

    Well., first half is absolutely brilliant but the second half is totally lost. It's a big mess and ruin all this legendary direction and story line. What's a pity. It could be one of my all time favorite but now.... No!

    Absolutely blew me away

    This series absolutely blew me away, not to be compared with the usual Kdrama series. Initially i wasn't sure about the series specially in the first 2 episodes .. oh drear i wasn't ready for the amount of twists unleashed later... Definitely worth watching.
