Park Min Mar 08 2023 5:20 pm The drama desperately needed more side stories to not make the drama feel draggy too much since there is barely anything happening outside the main story. The content for the main story wasn't sufficient to fill the episodes. It took only 19 episodes to shove the cast into an office. The drama also had a deadly overdose of cheese and cringe. Despite liking the actress, the female lead can't stop smiling no matter what and it just got too much quickly. Any emotional scene came off as superficial and cheap, probably a combination of both writing and performance. The same goes for the relationships in general. Also, the drama had one of the worst birth secrets plots I've seen so far. It felt like they were absolutely obligated to include it as if it's written in the contract.

Deena Oct 10 2022 2:01 am I watched this drama because of Kang Eun Tak.

Maxyn Charlin Oct 04 2022 7:39 am I love this drama so much especially Kang woo hyuk my favourite it's really fun to watch it takes away my stress

Amie Jun 21 2022 3:59 pm The drama is good its really interesting and i like that the writer impasizce the similarity of father and daughter the doctor and chae rim both are obsessed person... bang wool and woo kyul are really meant to be'....so sad hor the second lead he really is just a good friend..... noce drama all in all

yoooonaaa Apr 09 2021 7:08 am I really remember this drama, I watched this drama when I was at 6 grade, watching this drama with my mom! Super interesting, especially Han Chaerinnnn!! Super fun!! I recomended this drama you guys! Chaerin is the most beautiful name that I've heard in my life hahaha.

lrt Mar 18 2021 12:03 pm Really liked this drama until they threw her in the water and she lost her mind!!!

saranghae Apr 30 2019 3:20 am just finished the last epi 120 thanks to the writer for a great story line and the cast for their great acting skills with only a minor exception my ratings 8.5 out 10 with a lot of good recommendations for those hesitating to watch this the dragging and skipping were kept very low almost imperceptible those are the things that i hate the most and the major cause for me for dumping dramas in the middle of it the evil wenches duo chaerina and her stepmother these 2 were at the center of this drama all the time chaerinas face is too pretty angelical for doing bad roles like this i think a nun role in a different drama will suit her perfectly the stepmother is also pretty beautiful this was a good reason for her obtaining the number 2 spot in the miss korea contest im wondering who got number 1 at that time she must be awfully more pretty than her i think

saranghae Mar 29 2019 3:54 pm just finished epi 55 and i like this drama sometimes i can not stop so i watch a bunch in a row the only thing that is bothering me is the musical guy his voice is horrendously horripilant how can anybody be an actor with that voice its just too awful it sounds like he has a boxing mouth piece inside his mouth im wandering how did he became an actor with that stupid voice

saranghae Mar 14 2019 1:48 pm just finished epi 30 and i like this drama good story and acting is ok i would prefer sanchul and chaerin as the lead couple bangwul is ok but i dont like wuhyuk very much his acting is very dry he needs to be more lively and emotional i really like chaerin she is so beautiful pretty cute very tall and slender like a very good model and most of all her smile is so great that as her role in this drama she can render any man to his knees but she has a big downside which imo is her speech or voice maybe she has some problems with her tongue or throat or vocal chords or lips or teeth whatever it is make her voice unclear or unclean it seems her voice pitch frequency is abnormal anyway other than that she could be perfect imo actors and actresses live and die with their voices

Park Jimin Oct 06 2018 7:24 pm I LOVE THIS SHOW SO MUCH!!!! it has a lot of drama but days what makes it's so good. It has characters u like and characters u hate. Like I rlly hate chaerin sometimes (only in the show b/c she actually seems like a nice person and she's super pretty) and I luv sangcheol, bangwool, gangja, woohyuk. I JUST LOVE THEM ALL!!! i try not to miss an episode cuz they're all so good. And I rlly hate weekends cuz then u have to wait until Monday and ur super and ur desperate to find out what happens next. Honestly I found out about.this cuz of BTS and I'm starting to like the Korean culture. I JUST RLLY LUV THIS SHOW. it's like an addiction. I'm so happy that I found out about this show and dat it wuz made.i luv it so much.❤️❤️❤️

songgggg Feb 02 2018 9:22 pm Most people commented that this drama is too dragging. Well what do you expect? It's a daily drama set to have 100+ episodes. Of course it's going to be dragging to extend the eps like thousands of other daily drama. Nevertheless i think this drama is pretty good

Yvonne Jan 04 2018 7:57 am This drama is suck... i dont like this drama at all.. storyline is so stupid.. especially i dont like how male lead character hurt his mom feeling and expectation just because of a woman.

Stupid drama..!!

Milo Dec 14 2017 8:50 am This drama is damn too long winded. It can be ended by the 50 episodes but the directors make too many scenes unnecessarily. You waste your time and electricity to watch this drama.

Sage Dec 14 2017 1:04 am Have never like Kong Hyun Joo’s acting. She can’t act at all. Kong Hyun Joo’s mouth is slanted. It’s very obvious especially when she smiles.

Hanjoo Dec 12 2017 2:52 am This idiot Han Chae Rin acted by Kong Hyun Joo is so shameless and irritating. In actual fact, Kong Hyun Joo’s acting is very stiff and not natural at all. I can’t believe it that Kong Hyun Joo is born in 1984. She looks so much older and haggard for her age and the actors are way too young to act as Han Chae Rin’s partner.

Anoo Dec 11 2017 7:34 am Kong Hyun Joo is damn f*****g old. Gosh! I wonder is it that her pay is cheap and that’s why the directors has no choice but to select Kong Hyun Joo to cast as Han Chae Rin. She is way too bl***y old for any of the actors. Goodness! Please choose a much younger actress that cast as Han Chae Rin. Really disappointed with the directors.

ManiaK Dec 11 2017 4:11 am Both Kong Hyun Joo n Lee Sang In look very very very old for their age n haggard too. Don’t know why the directors look for such old looking actresses whereas the actors look so much more younger than both Kong Hyun Joo n Lee Sang In. Both of them spoil the whole drama.

CP Sep 05 2017 11:36 am Drama started off good. But in the end, the evil wicked antagonists, got no punishment for all the cruelty that was committed against main lead and her child. It's good to forgive, but there was no accountability for the level of cruelty that was displayed. It's the typical kdrama template of writing a story. Too many dramas ending this way.

afi Jun 02 2017 10:08 pm Finally finished watching the last episode .. good work. It's a good drama, although it's too long. I love watching it, and always waiting for the next episode .. the story and acting of the players are good, especially for one of my favorites as well: Kang Eun-tak. Thank you, see you in the next drama.

Evelyn May 31 2017 7:59 pm what happened to Episode 119 and 120 Can't you finish the episode soon instead of keep us waiting

Fe May 31 2017 6:24 pm What happen to episode 121?

roxy May 31 2017 4:27 am what happened to the next episode after ep 118? why are you letting your audience hang in the air. this is not fair after patiently following all the episodes.

LH May 23 2017 10:35 pm The dram was very good till mid eightieth eps. Now it just drags on and nothing is improving or happening. The script is bad. Main characters are disappearing. All the evil characters are abusing each other. Lost interest to follow the stories. Bad.

ICE Apr 21 2017 2:46 pm I am now at ep 99,and as of yet..nothign has been resolved! CR NYS and the chairwoman are the most evil vile disgusting scumbags I have ever seen in any drama! SC is running around sniffing that worthless BW a$$ like a DOG in heat!! This writer has lost their damn mind,or he just simply DO NOT know how to write a good script!! Anyway, enough of my precious time wasted in conclusion I only have 1 thing to say::

- - - - Viewers Do Not Waste Your Time Watching This Train Wreck, You Will Be Sorry You Did ********

madam rin Apr 21 2017 12:23 am Dear WRiter..the problem with most Korean drama..the ending will be too rush..thus the end is really anti-climax.and please no more sickening crying..woman should be tough not weak like tofu and please avoid physical abuse to women..it does show your Korean culture did not treat and respect the women. Women will always be "yes man".

Mona Apr 18 2017 9:04 am This was interesting and very good but it has taken a turn for the worst. I'm sure thr ratings will drop. This drama is full of physical and verbal abuse for the adults and only child in it. The main characters show nothing but weakness and cries continually. Evil reigns and win on every level. I have stopped watching it. May or may now watch the last episode to see if writer made wrote anything sensible. Just hate seeing how these writers become so twisted.

Norjahmd Apr 13 2017 4:47 pm I love this drama but I think the writer is psycho because it show that Korean people very mean pls don't do that

Taemoni Apr 11 2017 9:32 am Drama moving too slow. It seems like mother /daughter finding out about each other,hit and run,heart transplant of deceased husband are all going to be revealed all at once. It appears this going to be a rushed drama.

Dan Apr 08 2017 9:22 am I hope Che Rin and her stepmother will find he'll for what they had done.

Katie Mar 25 2017 8:38 am

- SPOILERS **

If I was Bang Wool 1. When she asked for her have a abortion I would have threw the water on her face. 2. When blamed for Dong Joon death. Kicked out of the house. I wouldn't have begged stay with them so rude to her when she was mourning his death too only one wasn't rude was the brother. 3. The last straw was Soon Bok (MIL) balls to try and take the baby from her when she went to meet her at Bang Wool home. (even when Soon Bok didn't want anything to do with her) Once saw baby looked like her son she became possessive when Bang Wool said move next day from away from her move back to her home. I would have had a restraining order on the mil so she couldn't come near the them.

Mun-yee Mar 20 2017 2:14 am Overall, I like this family drama because their dialogues is very logic but somehow, Han Chae Rin 's characters is over boundaries. In the past, she had been in love with so many guys but why she insists to pick on Woo-hyuk who doesn't interested in her at all. If talk about her greediness, with her quick-witted characters definitely, she can get better than Woo-hyuk.

Since, it is a story drama. I don't bother much about Chae Rin role. Beside she should behaves abit from what she had done in the past?

This drama storylines is very simple to understand minus Chae Rin role. I don't wish Bang Wool forgives her biological mother. She was worst than Chae Rin. Hope she just kick out from her husband and disappear.

Onggie Mar 20 2017 1:49 am Is better her step-mother send Chae-rin to see psychiatry.....she was dangerous, crazy and greedy. Somehow, I felt this step-mother is killing her instead helping her.

mj Mar 10 2017 6:14 pm I really like this drama. I really like Wang Ji-Hye in this drama. She was SO ANNOYING in, Yeah, That's How It Is, I never thought I would like her in ANYTHING but she's really good in LOVE IS DROP BY DROP. What I can't understand is the actress Kim Yoon-Kyung is only a few years younger then the actress Kim Ye-Ryeong who plays her MOM! They should of gotten someone older for the mom or younger for the daughter's roll. Other then that, I really like this drama. Good storyline and actors.

Malka diaz Mar 07 2017 10:43 pm Thiis is very inspiring drama the lead actress and actor are excellent in their role . Keep up the good work and thank you for the writer in doing best in every episode . More power to all!

Janet Tai Feb 21 2017 10:42 pm How many episodes are there ? Love the story

Maggie Feb 17 2017 2:47 pm Most of the Korean family dramas give a lot of tensions makjang issues but this one is so different. Each episodes filled with sweet romance between Woo-hyuk and Bang-wool. I love the background music plays whenever Woo-wan and Woo-kyung scenes appeared. Give it 9.5/10 ratings, love it.

Aliah Mohd Salleh Feb 16 2017 12:50 am This story is amazing right from the start. Thank you for the writer and PDnim for balancing the viewer unhapiness with another happines.Everytime immature HCR tried to harm BW ,the action will backfire . This drama is the best among the family story i have watch .

Aliah Mohd Salleh Feb 16 2017 12:42 am I love this story .

Marlene Feb 14 2017 12:08 pm I agreed with @ Swee Ling, the story patching up very nicely up to now. I'm a bit worry about Han Chae Rin, what's she going to do next? This lady should know how to learn "Let go off" when Woo Hyuk dislikes her?

Swee Ling Feb 14 2017 10:35 am My love is just like the title of this drama. I love it so much now. At the beginning, I like how this storylines started and as it aired day by day, my addiction can't stop to watch and I love how the writer delivers this story? It is just so good, better than "The Gentlemen of Wolgyusu Tailor" with their highest ratings. Park Woo-hyuk's mother must be blessed, both of her adult children have a wonderful partners to love them.

Yuling Feb 11 2017 4:45 pm I do not understand why no one comment in this drama? This is one of the best daily dramas and recommended.

I love it very much and the storylines is good and convincing. At the beginning, it's really annoying with Bong Wool's noodle hair-styles but she getting mature and prettier very soon. Oh, my! I fall in love with Woo-hyuk 's charisma in this drama.

Barnie Feb 11 2017 9:31 am The show immensely getting drawn to it as Chief director falling in love, like his spontaneity and charms and witty

Rachel Feb 06 2017 6:06 pm EunTak is good.. handsome :p ;) I started watching this drama it is incredible!! love it im so drawn to it, i just hate chaerin hope she gets locked in jail soon, palli.

Kit Jan 20 2017 3:30 am I love the actor Kang Eun Tak, his facial expressions and his nice performance as as Chief Director who falls in love with his employee who has a 7-yr old son. This drama has 120 episodes and I'm just wondering what else can happen in the next 82 episodes? I hope the story won't drag too much such that it becomes boring. Also, I don't think it's a good reason to fall in love with someone because he gets a heart (transplant) from the girl's dead boyfriend. He gets attracted to a girl of different status, period. The heart transplant should be coincidental. :))

Kit Jan 20 2017 3:21 am I love the actor Kang Eun Tak, his facial expressions and his nice performance as as Chief Director who falls in love with the Bang-Wool. This drama has 120 episodes and I'm just wondering what else can happen in the next 82 episodes? I hope the story won't drag too much such that it becomes boring.

Nadia Jan 12 2017 9:58 am Its along term drama...as the experienced it will get bored, the scienery will repeat again and again also we will forget where was the climax..we are getting tire to watch it thou decide too to leave it and change it with other drama.. sooo please dont let it happen mr.writer, do not confortabling with long eps. Coz we did the opposite

passerby Jan 09 2017 6:26 am the comments are unduly harsh. wang ji hye was totally lovable in yeah, that's how it is and that's why i'm watching her in this. i quite like it. it's not a remake of falling for innocence and the love line is much more natural. but the story is a bit slow, just how you would expect a morning drama to be

Tia Nov 29 2016 10:30 pm @LKB, there was a previous daily drama that had an organ donation premise if you're interested - http://asianwiki.com/Pit-a-pat,_My_love.

Surriya Nov 28 2016 9:41 am How many episodes it have?

LKB Nov 27 2016 8:20 pm Love is [Falling for Innocence]... Drop by Drop [Beating Again]... it hasn't been long enough to repeat it and do it in a daily drama form in my opinion... It doesn't, for me, help that the lead is Wang Ji Hye here... she's GREAT at playing a total b***h (adulteress/man-stealer/elitist snob, better than thou do anything to get ahead and impress the world employee etc) but hard to actually like/love with her range of expressions and general tone whereas the lead for Falling for Innocence/Beating Again is the opposite, hard to NOT love, even when she's doing super tough militant roles! Just a weird deja vu, but then... I don't usually, after being very disgruntled by the two I endured, watch M-F shows because they're a bit too soap opera-like for me (bollywood and Spanish-language soap operas at that)...

Dave Nov 22 2016 4:36 am The plot is like falling for innocence

OrangeMoon Nov 10 2016 6:35 am It's like the drama where Jung Kyung Ho and Jin Goo were in
