Beta Nim Sep 11 2024 8:39 am There are A Lot of questionable plots in this drama series however I can safely say that I am 100% all-in with the "girl BFF" plot

Park Min Mar 10 2023 3:21 pm Sure it was a little bit different especially with its comedy but it couldn't maintain the same appeal. The jokes got repetitive and dull. If only Kim Bok Man can stop pretending to smoke a piece of paper. It's too focused on the jokes that any real development/progress was delayed until the ending part. I would understand if it was a sitcom or purely comedy but it consistently tries to incorporate other genres. I liked the characters initially but most of them became a background noise shortly after.

Jasmine Jun 27 2019 1:43 am I missed it on KBS but had a chance watching it on SBS

It's girl-friendship story... Very nice I wish I could have such friendship

Recommended for all Korean drama addict

patience Jan 18 2019 4:22 pm It ended at 100 ep :( I still want the 20 ep left lol. This drama is different than normal one. it is irritating at first but it slowly and gradually they improve and the plot start becoming stuck with you and will absolutely love it. the ending is kind of rushed.. I wish they would continue it a bit more and make it for realistic ending. Its a happy ending but something feels missing.

Ling Dec 05 2018 5:56 am Kim Bok-Man is really irritating to the max. Hope Jin-Ok divorce him soonest!

zombie Nov 18 2018 11:37 am just started this drama it feels a little different more comedy than drama but thats ok its very funny the story line looks promising and interesting so im gonna stick with this drama it bothers me that the lead couple dont match at all at first i thought he was her father he just look much older for his age and the 3 amigas are hilarious but what happened to the 4th amiga oh well we will see

Kamp Oct 15 2018 7:20 am finally, Ahn Sun-Young has a leading role. well, one of the three. I always feel sorry for women or men who get stuck in supporting roles or 2nd leading

kdrama lover Sep 14 2018 7:43 am verry good drama light and easy to follow so far i'm pretty satisfied with the acting

Him Ne Se Oh Aug 31 2018 3:18 am happy it's not another historical drama
