Comments

Park Min Dec 06 2022 10:49 pm I was absolutely desperate for the female lead to get back to her old job of being a homicide detective because that's the only thing that would make this drama a little tiny bit interesting in the drama's setting. They completely shelved off the female lead in the last 10 episodes and put her on hold, instead they redirect the attention to a weird uninteresting cycle of irrelevant events to the main story. Which resulted in making the last 10 episodes feel like a huge drag.

How would a writer escape once they are cornered? Introduce "terminal illness". With it, everything start to change magically. It doesn't matter whatever development/character the drama built up because all of that is irrelevant once the terminal illness is present. LAZY! Don't even get me started on the FL's journey to "forgiveness", absolutely laughable. The dynamic with FL and her in-laws was a big oof moment that was never resolved.

First half was full of students and the FL was doing exactly as described in the synopsis, then in the second half there was non of that and it became melo only. The same thing can be said about some character, for example, Jin Hee who had heavy screen-time just to completely disappear and never to be seen in the second half. The last two episodes were super artificial. Character who never given any attention suddenly got some like Gyeong Ah.

I enjoyed watching Kim Jung Eun & Lee Tae Ran, they are one of my favorite underrated actresses. The drama was fine, I guess. Anyway, serviceable 4.5/10 .

Kinanthi Nov 18 2020 8:00 am Dimana saya dpt menonton drama ini Sya tidak dpt menontonnya dimanapun?

roniyah Apr 25 2020 10:30 pm Awesome! I loved this drama. EunSoo was a terrible person, I enjoyed seeing her get paid back for evil deeds. The entire cast and story was amazing. I wish they still made them like this in 2020.

Yinka Adegunloye Jan 07 2017 9:52 am Make a Woman Cry is one of the best drama i have ever watched! Kudos to all the cast, especially... ALL of them!

Zabidah Jun 25 2016 6:18 pm I agree with Boring comment. Though the acting seems like zombies still they got their jobs finish in no time. But I still like to watch

Ozmo May 31 2016 8:22 pm They don't take off their shoes in the big house! No house slippers worn there, still in their outdoor shoes! What's with that?

Dani May 30 2016 8:13 am It was a good drama but what the hell happen from ending of EP 39 and beginning of EP 40? She was hit on the head with a steel pipe and she is all okay??? Is it even real? Director & writer, don't you think she should at least be in hospital in a comatose stage for a few months????

What is disappointing about Korean Dramas is the ending!! They always rush it and cramp everything in one last episode. Every drama is the same. The beginning of the story is interesting then it gets draggy for no particular reason and finally rush the ending because no more extension of episodes!

andhika94 Mar 27 2016 12:55 am I feel sick when I saw kyungchul face. I feel like I want to punch him over and over again

hannie Jan 25 2016 6:23 am Can anybody tell me what is Jungsu real name ?? I love this drama so far Cheondoong is really adorable .. and Jung Il joo is so funny ~

novel Jan 10 2016 1:39 pm Hey this series has 40 episodes

Honey Manarang Dec 09 2015 5:55 am The movie drama is good but they did not finished. They don't have episode 21 to the last episode. I hoped you will solve this matter.

Movie Buff Oct 28 2015 6:54 pm Enjoyable drama, lots of humor and different emotional acting. This drama moves you with different problems that is solved. I love Song Chang Eui, watched you in a lot of drama and always fit your character especially in Yi San, you were great. I notice there are a lot of newbies that have a future in up coming dramas. Kim Jung-Eun perfect part you matched the martial arts fighting with style. You really kick a lot of butts and looked so good, thanks to the martial arts coach. Wonderful drama BIG THANKS to the staff, director, all of you. GOOD JOB. Good Story. Hope others would understand. Keep on FIGHTING. Everyone had a good heart.

Femsofab Oct 12 2015 6:58 am I really love this drama! Full package from action,drama,suspense, and most specially romance! Daebak! applause to Kim jung eun and song chang ui! Saranghe!

boring Oct 04 2015 4:41 pm half the show is people staring into nothing or walking like zombies ! This is soooo boring and stale

rayven Sep 24 2015 9:54 am i love it! its a great korean drama! indeed kim jung eun is one of the best actress in korea. i hope to see her in another kdrama. well i was just hoping for more scene with dokin and jinwoo hehe, but overall its a wrap!

JJ Sep 14 2015 8:36 am Just finished this drama & i luv happy endings! the only thing about this is that there's too many scenes of that menace Eunsoo, i was hoping there's more of the love scenes betwn Dukin & Jinwoo, that Eunsoo character was very annoying! overall, i highly recommend this drama --- the leads were superb in their performance!

arizonagirl Sep 12 2015 3:04 am I do not like those 2 scheming money hungry sister-in-laws. I liked it better when Hong Ran was out of the house - it was peaceful - no conniving and bickering back and forth. I hope they both lose out in the end as Deok In has not done anything to either of them And Jin Woo does not appear to be interested in working at the company, so why are they so caught up in their selves trying to break them up !!!! Neither of them should have any control over the company.

Jin Myeong should have drowned Eun Soo instead of his brother. How could he even be in love with the evil scheming hateful witch. When the brother comes back to life I hope he runs the company and gets rid of Eun Soo.

Jin Myeong has no backbone. He should divorce Hong Ran - she is too pretentious and thinks she is so great.

arizonagirl Sep 05 2015 3:51 am @punky --- I wondered also why they didn't continue to do the ratings after Ep 20???? Oh well

arizonagirl Sep 05 2015 3:48 am It appears that Jin Woo and his son, Yoon Seo, have no communication between them. I know the son dislikes the father because his mother passed away. Maybe if they were able to discuss their feelings/problems maybe his son would not be just a darn bully.

jinjoo Sep 01 2015 6:04 pm i'm going to miss watching this bcoz of Song chang ui, a great actor/singer etc. this drama was good i highly recommend it & glad it's a happy ending! i hope season 2 for just the story of Deok in & Jin woo! there's a lot of lessons learned in this drama but i don't wish to be a spoiler for some who have not seen this! Kim & Song had a great chemistry & no surprise coz they're both veterans in terms of yrs of entertaining us fans/viewers! I hope to see more of Song chang ui after this drama!

arizonagirl Aug 30 2015 1:43 am The young girl who plays Gyeong-Cheol's sister, Han Bo-Bae is it, is a cute girl.

Interesting the Deok In can fight off all those gangsters all by herself!!!!!!

punky Aug 14 2015 9:16 pm why is it that there is no update after the episode 20? been waiting for weeks alreeady.. : (

Arizona Girl Aug 09 2015 1:58 am I think Choi Hong-Ran has a big mouth and is a trouble maker. She doesn't know when to keep her mouth shut. She hired Gyeong Tae not knowing he is using her nephew for his money. And the stupid girlfriend, Ms Park keeps her mouth shut. Idiot that she is.

The two white dresses Duk In had on were beautiful. The first one was so pretty it would make a beautiful wedding dress.

neea Aug 03 2015 3:28 am Love this drama. The more I watch, noticed Deok In n her mom look more like sisters rather than mother n daughter coz Kim Jung Eun looks like she belongs to Kim Hae Sook's age group.

No offence to Kim Jung Eun's fans, I know she is years younger, but, Deok In here really looks more like the sister instead of a daughter. Could it be the make-up?

mj Jul 25 2015 8:18 pm So well written and the acting is excellent! The twist and turn, can't wait to see how it ends.

arizonagirl Jul 19 2015 3:01 am Doesn't Jin Woo know what his evil son is doing at school having students beat up????? Why doesn't Duk In tell him as they are spending so much time together. He pays attention to Duk In more than his own son. He said his wife was lonely living with him, I can see why if he didn't pay any attention to her or the son.

I can see why Hyun Seo's mother doesn't want him to hang around with that girl who comes and checks his blood pressure or whatever. Her boyfriend, Gyeong Tae, is using Hyun Seo to get money out of him. Gyeong Tae is a creep and should get a job, he is just lazy and a user. And his girlfriend doesn't do anything about it. Hyun Seo doesn't know any different as he has never been out of the house and now he thinks he found 2 friends. I hope his mother gets a handle on that situation before Hyun Seo gets used by them both. While Gyeong Tae wants Hyun Seo to die, does he think he is going to get money from his death. I don't know how Gyeong Tae's girlfriend can like him. I do feel bad for Hyun Seo as he does need a father figure, and his uncle could spend time with him, but he should also spend time with his own son. Problem is Jin Myeong has feelings for Eun Soo and his wife is makes things worse by trying to separate them and have her move out of the house. No he can spend time with Eun Seo with out any problem. Lee Tae Ran needs to divorce Jin Myeong, he does not love her and treats her like a piece of trash.

Rose Jul 12 2015 2:11 am I feel bad for Min-Seo, his father and grandparents don't have any respect for him, nor pay any attention to him. They only seem to care about is Eunsoo and her son.

I hope Hyun Seo doesn't get hurt by that nurse that he cares for. Her boyfriend is going to use him for his money. His mother, Eunsoo, doesn't let him out and he has no real friends. Too bad Min-Seo and Hyun Seo can't be more friendly.

Deok-In's husband as an a-hole. How could he love the wicked witch. She said she was humiliated by Deok-In as she has to pick up her lover - Gyeong-Cheol as his wife's restaurant. In my opinion, Deok-In was humiliated by the wicked witch girlfriend continuing to give her money and her stupid a-hole husband also giving her money. I would hope she dumps the a-hole husband. The teacher and Deok-In seem to be more compatible.

Georgie May 25 2015 10:31 pm In Gyo Jin's face is very strange, almost frozen, not much expression... If he opens his eyes wide, they remain like that... Too much Botox?

Ann May 03 2015 4:09 pm I look forward to Lee Da In's acting!!!!!! She was really great in 20's!! ;) Fighting!!

Miko Apr 19 2015 12:39 am This is a bit like angry mom although not completely.

hyeri Apr 10 2015 2:33 am Excuse me... not that Lee Da In, but the one who played in Twenty Years Old with Gikwang :)

achillea Mar 01 2015 11:32 pm I read in an article that Thunder is cast as Eun Soo's (Ha Hee Ra) son. He's acting is so cute in Nail Shop Paris but in here I think he'll be a cold person.

karisa Feb 10 2015 6:38 am Wow ... Can't wait to see her. She is my favorite actress ... She is lovely, funny, talented and beautiful. I have seen all of her dramas and movies.

devie Feb 05 2015 11:49 pm Yesssssssss..... i hope don't be cancel again.. cause i'm so really miss want to seen her acting again.. very miss her.. she is an great actress and very lovely actress too.. i love her...

Jang Shin Young Feb 03 2015 6:48 am you stab SBS in the back. don't you remember Lovers in Paris? it's on SBS, wasn't it? and now you betray them to go to MBC. it's okay, but it's not right.

Tara Feb 03 2015 6:32 am Really ? She has a new project? I miss Kim Jeung Eun ... She is a great actress !!! Can't wait to see her in her new drama .
