This is not the only drama that put plastic surgeon as a solution to life problem. I do not think this is a good means myself.
But in regards to the plot and actors, I have no special complaint.

I fallen head over heels for this drama. Needless to say about the lead actors - Joo Sang Wook did an outstanding role in this drama and Han Ye Seul complemented him with her role unimaginably distinctive.
This drama is best example of "Rom-Com" Genre. Very interesting story plot and screenplay. There is twist after every couple of episodes. This drama totally captivated me. Joo Sang Wook is phenomenal in this drama. It is definitely worth watching for him.
The plot keeps you engaging and the chemistry between the lead pair is top notch. The script is very unpredictable and the screenplay have interesting classy elements that makes the show unique and worth watching.

Title sounds and looks frivolous but I'm in the mood for a bit of frivolity but some good actors in it so Im going to watch it.
Starts off with with so much fat shaming that its painful. You can tell which actors do Martial Art for real by the size and shape of their knuckles. They look hard and tough even the they have been smoothed by the computer. Their hands are not that perfect.
This drama is so funny and sad at the same time. I think, it's called dark humour.
Korean dramas have a bad history of abuse and ill-treatment of women and especially older women. Their civil rights in the dramas are constantly violated. Us women in New Zealand feel offended by these kind of strategies. It is time for Korean men to clean up their act and stop hurting women like this.
It just slipped into my thoughts" I hate those forehead kisses. That is what out culture does with babies and children for adults we kiss on the lips for close relationships, wife, husband, mother, father, own children, close aunties and close uncles, other people on the cheek, big hugs and kiss on cheek. People we don't know or church friends we shake hands. This kissing on the forehead is so foreign. The spouses if the main actors. Han Ye Seul/Sa Ra / Sa Geum Ran and Joo Sang Wook/Han Tae Hee will be so happy because these two only shared one real kiss and that was pretty chaste. The two main leads had great chemistry and worked together to solve their problems. Surely they could have kissed more than once. Wish! The two antagonists though, they quickly went from loving each other to basically hating each other. Not long after the honeymoon they were at each others throats.
I do like the way Koreans get in bed with their loved ones in hospital.
I've got a love hate relationship with this villain, on one hand his a cad, a bounder, a lout Jung Gyu Woon/Lee Kang Jun but then he's so handsome and smart and can act, you have to give him kudos for that.
I like the story a lot. I must have because I stayed up all nigh watching it. Nice filming picture were clear and well focussed. Setting and scenery were pretty. Room and office decorations were detailed and well organised.

I watched this series because Joo Sang Wook was the male lead and I enjoyed his performance in Single Cunning Lady. The story was ok but I was getting rather impatient to finish the series as I felt there were too many unnecessary scenes. I liked the happy ending nevertheless.
Wow, that was a tremendously long and cumbersome drama to sit through. It tormented me to watch it from beginning to end, and I can't believe I stuck with it, but I invested so much already, that I felt I needed to finish it. The plot is quite different, actually. It had so much potential to be something bigger with all the scheming and twists they were introducing. The biggest flaw for me was the pacing and sequencing of events. For instance, the female lead's life was already in danger, yet they still had time to be romantic in between these tense scenes. Too many lovey-dovey scenes that are misplaced or wrongly timed. I appreciated the lead actor-very handsome and funny. I had no major problems with the lead actress, either. I just couldn't find myself to root for their love story. I wasn't feeling their chemistry. If the series were shorter I think my rating would have been higher, but there were too many flashbacks and unnecessary scenes. It would have benefitted from some heavy editing.
