One week after the drama ended and am still not getting tired listening to Park Eun Bin's songs. Also, is it just me, but I like her looks as Mok-ha over her reallife one. Must be the long hair.

A nice perfect ending to the drama, but her final song was far from my favorite. Also I wonder how much scenes were cut to make this a 12 ep instead of a 16 ep drama. The promotional poster showing Mok-ha with a longish dress and a seashell on her ear wasn't even shown.

About 2/3 of the way into ep 12 and I'm loving it so much. There was no wasted scene, and the biggest question between the good dad and the evil dad was answered and resolved within the first 10 minutes. The evil dad gambled his life thinking he can still ruin the lives of his ex-family, but he lost the gamble and ended up with nothing. The good dad's sacrifices from long time ago were rewarded and aside from getting back their real names, he was finally able to marry Ki-ho and Chae-ho's mother for real. We thought President Lee was also beyong salvation, but later we found out that it was actually Ran-joo's mother who shredded the invoice because she wanted Ran-joo to be a singer forever. Honestly I find this a bit selfish on the mother's part. So far this is the only part of the episode that I find a bit meh. Funny exchange between Mok-ha and Mo-rae. I knew they will not be enemies till the end and it took President Lee's action of switching their songs to reach a sort of peace. President Lee is confident that this switch is better for both artist, and he even bet his position and shares to Ran-joo. I'm pretty sure he did the right decision. I knew the writers were messing with us when they seem to insinuate that Chae-ho/Woo-hak will tell Mok-ha how he feels. As it turned out he was telling Ki-ho to tell Mok-ha all the things he did to find her. Took quite sometime for Ki-ho and Mok-ha to have their alone time in the rooftop but it was worth the wait because Ki-ho found out that Mok-ha already knew the things he did for her. My favorite statement is when Mok-ha said that in the deserted island the stars are up above but here in the city there were down below. This is a nice way of saying that before she was wishing for her dreams but now she is living out her dreams. I'll probably take more toilet breaks to finish the episode. Lol just kidding. I'll write another POV for the remaining parts of the episode after I finish watching. Hoping ep 12 will reach 10%.

I thought I was watching Mission Impossible with the Tango fight moves lol. Nothing really different with other similar dramas in the first 4 episodes, but their visuals is really really good. Can't wait for their honeymoon period, but our handsome demon needs to experience jelousy first. The homeless woman is definitely not human. Could she be the god who made Gu Won a demon?

3:00 AM here in Sydney and am still awake as I just finished watching ep 11. A lot of things happened and most of them still didn't have closure. 1. Bo-geol's family weren't charged with identity theft due to lack of evidence. There was actually evidence but the prosecutor side with them due to the evil father's lack of remorse and pathological lying. Actually they should have put the evil father under police observation because it has been proven that he attempted to kill the insurance agent. This oversight led to the good father being stabbed in the neck. I hope the message on the cake is not a premonition of his death. Regardless of whether he lives or die, I really hope the evil father rots forever in prison. 2. Ran-joo was vindicated because of Mok-ha's help in writing the lyrics of her mother's song. Just as Ran-joo told the beauticians to make Mok-ha pretty during her battle with Mo-rae, this time Mok-ha did the same so that Ran-joo can sing the song for her mother. Her emotional barrier was lifted and she finally sung again. But now we know that the key that Ran-joo's mother gave to Mok-ha then to Ran-joo opened a drawer containing diaries, letters and the most important invoice for 140,000 albums from 10 years ago. This shows that Ran-joo sold over 20,000,000 albums a long time ago and should rightfully have 50% of RJ Entertaiment. But the biggest question is how did her mother come to the possession of this document, and it was even taped together after being shredded. Quite ironic that the evil CEO had the gall to tell Ran-joo that between the two of them she is the real trash. I would be really dissapointed if Ran-joo doesn't do anything about this as we now know the CEO's true colors. 3. Finally Mok-ha told Bo-geol that she still has those feelings from 15 years ago. The way she said it was similar to the way Bo-geol said it before, what kind of lunatic remembers and cares for someone she's uninterested with for 15 years. We were rewarded with the kiss 15 years in the making, and what a sweet kiss it was. Funnily enough it was Mok-ha who initiated the kiss. The confrontation between Mok-ha and Mo-rae isn't finished and I suspect the reason why Mo-rae wants Mok-ha to switch songs is because one of their recorded song is the same. 4. And for the love of god the person behind the teaser seem to be playing games with the viewers. Mok-ha and Woo-hak appear to be eating with Bo-geol looking back then the accompanying dialogue is "the biggest regret in life is not expressing your true feelings". But Woo-hak looks like he is wearing different colored clothes. It would be bad writing if the scene actually plays out like this. I'm looking forward to the grand finale and another nice Park Eun Bin er Mok-ha song. Honestly, I've become a fan of hers with this drama. Note: 4:00 AM here now and I've never stayed up this late.

The more I listen to Park Eun Bin singing Until The End the more I'm liking the song. She looks very pretty in there and I like her showmanship especially when she held the microphone towards the end of the song. She reached the high notes with ease. I reckon even the strands of hair on her forehead were arranged to increase her appeal.

I had the same reaction when the police officer put the evil father in his place. I'm looking forward to BFF's Mok-ha and Bo-geol becoming BF/GF Mok-ha and Bo-geol

Hard for me to decide which song sung by Park Eun Bin is the best, but I guess the one which impacted me the most was Someday. I already liked the song the first time I heard it, then was really surprised when I read that Park Eun Bin was the real singer. I've listened to the song well over 50 times. Visually she was stunning in Open Your Eyes, but I liked her best when she sung Until the End. Very nice hair braiding and the color of her dress perfectly complemented her hair and guitar. She also showed showmanship by grabbing the microphone. Night and Day and Someday, Somewhere are the other songs that I liked. At first I was just listening to the songs without really reading the lyrics, but because I've watched the songs multiple times, I've had the opportunity to read them. Open Your Eyes is obviously a song between people with special connection so this is the perfect song for Mok-ha and Bo-geol. Until the End is about someone finally doing what they like (i.e. Mok-ha singing). Someday, Somewhere is melancholic and basically a song about losing people you care for but wishing you see them again someday, somewhere. (i.e. Mok-ha and Bo-geol's family).

The second half of episode 10 was even better than the first half with every scene having a purpose, save for one. Sorry not sorry but I didn't like the scene when Woo-hak cried because Mok-ha left. With two episodes left, I really hope this is the last of this pointless forced third wheel arc. If someone had to cry, it would be Bo-geol. But he did the opposite and instead told Mok-ha that he wants her to break ties with his family. He knows it has been Mok-ha's dream to be a singer, so he is willing to sacrifice being with her as long as her dream becomes a reality. I liked the older sister-younger sister type of relationship between Ran-joo and Mok-ha with Ran-joo given up her share of the company and taking a risk to develop Mok-ha into a true singer. IMO we have to thank Bo-geol's contribution to her change of attitude. At first I was thinking "really another problem this late into the drama" when the news of about Ran-joo surfaced. But thinking about it, it is needed to bring out Mok-ha's trust in herself. This is a 180% change from when Ran-joo offered to produce her first album if she break ties with Bo-geol's family. This time Mok-ha believes that her reason on why Ran-joo participated in Heyday Again is more sound than Ran-joo's one. I'm a bit confused with President Lee, because the morning Ran-joo gave him the signed termination of contract, he was elated at first but seem to become pensive when he asked Ran-joo on why she is doing this. But on the teaser he is telling Mok-ha to act as if she's cut ties with Ran-joo and Ran-joo seem (not 100% sure here) to be asking him why do you treat me like trash. The awakening of the insurance agent from his coma will surely be bad news for the evil dad. But interesting enough he is trying to play the victim card by saying someone choked him. I hope episode 11 with be a double digit high for the drama. Finally Mok-ha will say she still has those feelings from 15 years ago and they will kiss (yay).

Just about half way in episode 10 and I felt that the identity theft arc was a bit rushed. I mean they just recovered the 4 skeletons then immediately linked it to Bo-geol family. This is so atypical in kdrama. The suicide letter was too convenient, but I guess with 2 episodes left they need to rush. Glad to see that the evil dad is not going to get his way. He thought that the identify theft issue will result to him getting back his family but the good bad beat him to the punch. The idea that the good dad will confess his crime didn't cross my mind, but on my previous post I mentioned the identity theft will be mitigated by the reason why it was done, so maybe admiting to the crime will lessen the potential sentence they are going to receive. I'm pretty sure its not just going to be a pat on the back. Despite too many things going on, the writers are doing a fair job of inserting sweet Mok-ha Bo-geol moments. The FL fainting straight into the ML and the ML carrying the FL is very cliche, but I'm sure no one will mind. Still hoping that Mok-ha will be successful in her singing career (this should be a given) and happy in her love life. I'll finish the episode after work and will post my POV on the second half of episode 10.

Episode 2 was all over the place but really can't deny the chemistry of the two leads and their visuals of course. Poor Do Do-hee!!! She seem to be the target of the other family members. On a serious note when are they going to be married? They keep on showing the wedding and honeymoon period scenes in Netflix, but it isn't on the teaser in episode 2. I don't really mind if the drama is going to have low ratings as I will watch it till the end because of Kim Yoo Jung.

The dominos are falling into place in episode 9. Looks like Mok-ha's long delayed singing career is finally taking off and reconciation with Ran-joo is just around the corner. She did assist Bo-geol in improving the song for Mok-ha. But the condition that Ran-joo gave which is to break all ties with Bo-geol's family is going to be too hard to make. Obviously their identity theft will come to light with the discovery of the sunken car and the skeletons inside it. The police that the evil dad contacted will likely connect the dots and have Bo-geol's family arrested. Woo-hak also made a breakthrough and now knows that their evil dad planted the hornets in the insurance agents car. The dad will likely be arrested too and the reason for the identity theft will be known. I don't know the law in Korea, does attempted physical injury carry more weight than identity theft? I reckon the attempted physical injury will be aggravated by the fact that the victim is still in a coma while the identity theft will be mitigated by the reason why they did it. I understand Ran-joo 100% because she wants Mok-ha to dissociate herself from the case and not be dragged down. Rightfully so, she is an accomplice. I looking forward to how the identity theft case will play out. Surely the ending will be Mok-ha being the diva she was meant to be and hopefully with either Bo-geol or Ki-ho at her side. I said either because I suspect they will win the right to get their rightful names back. I've been suspecting that Ran-joo and the evil CEO had a past and this was confirmed in this episode. What we still don't know is just what lock does the key from Mok'ha mother open, and also what is inside it? Also I'm pretty sure Ran-joo's mother meant something and was of clear mind when she said "don't let President Lee know". This knowledge I hope will still enable Ran-joo to get her much deserved 50% of the company. I predict in the end everyone will be civil with each other except for the evil dad. If his actions on this episode is an indication, then he is beyond salvation.

I liked Song Kang in Sweet Home but defintely not in Nevertheless and Forecasting Love and Weather. Park Min-young is one of my all time favorites but her chemistry with SK was really bad. However I will likely watch this drama because SK and Kim Yoo-jung is very good.

I've always liked fantasy drama and Kim Yoo-jung, so been waiting to watch this since I saw it last week. The plot of people fighting for future control of a chaebol company is cliche, but I wouldn't mind because I like the chemistry between Song Kang and KYJ. Their visuals were also nice especially KYJ, who is looking better as she grows older. The first episode gave a brief history of Jung Gu-won and Do Do-hee, the chaebol control plot including someone wanting Do-hee killed and the founder of Mirae Group wanting to marry off Do-hee. The most interesting part of course is how physical contact (i.e. touching of hands) between Gu-won and Do-hee can cause the cross, which I would assume is the source of Gu-won's demon power, to transfer from Gu-won to Do-hee. I predict this either has something to do with their past lives (Gu-won was previously human according to his contractors in Sunwol Foundation) or the obvious "love" angle. I'm looking forward to the next episodes (not sure if it is going to be on the next one) as the they are going to be married and have a honeymoon phase. Rating on the premiere is a bit so-so but let's wait and see if it stays like that or improves.

While impatiently (lol) waiting for episode 9, I'm seeing a lot of post in my FB wall about second lead syndrome and it's both entertaining and annoying to read the comments. The annoying part for me is those siding with the older brother as the justifications they are giving is skin deep. I would understand if the situation was similar to the 2 ML in Start Up, which isn't the case here.

Ran-joo's reaction was likely due to her feeling betrayed by Mok-ha because Mok-ha did say she will never leave her, then not even a day after she left. But hopefully their "war" wouldn't last long and they'll reconcile within episode 9. Also hoping the teaser at the end of ep 8 is what I see as Ran-joo directing Mok-ha recording.

That scene was funny and shows how innocent Mok-ha is. Yeah that evil father has got to be put in his place as it's very obvious who caused Bo-geol's injuries. Hopefully that is going to be the start of the father's downfall.

As expected a new high, most likely due to the reveal and their first sort of romantic moment. I didn't expect Woo-hak to be that direct during the "clearing up" questions. But glad to see that he is backing off. I guess the moment of the episode was Ran-joo's mother escaping from the aged care and ending up in the parlor. I couldn't blame Ran-joo for saying some hurtful words to Mok-ha because what Mok-ha did reminded Ran-joo of what Mo-rae did to her before. But Mok-ha is going to prove to Ran-joo that she is different and hopefully what we saw in the teaser for episide 8 is Ran-joo guiding Mok-ha on her first recording. Are they going to make their own agency or maybe go with Sugar Entertaiment? I wonder if Ran-joo is really going to terminate her contract with the RJ CEO, and what was her mother referring to when she said don't let President Lee know. With 4 episodes left I hope they start to resolve loose ends, mainly the evil father and the fake identities. I read some comments in Facebook and they have a point that Mok-ha will not likely start a relationship with Bo-geol unless the evil father is behind bars or somehow repents. Some are even suggesting the ending with be like either 21-25 or Start Up. I don't believe it will be like that because Mok-ha and Ki-ho did have a special relationship 15 years ago. Whatever Woo-hak does in the present time could not hope to overcome this and Ki-ho/Bo-geol is still supporting Mok-ha's dream to be a singer. On a side note I've never watched the last episode of Start Up till now because of extreme annoyance.

Quite busy at work so have so far only watched up to the camping scenes. Mok-ha was quite cute when she said no when Woo-hak asked if they still have feelings for each other while Bo-geol said yes. I agree with Bo-geol 100% when he said you will not look for 15 years for someone you are not interested with. Hopefully (keeping my fingers crossed) that Woo-hak will take this as a sign to stop. But I have a nagging feeling he will not because Mok-ha did say no. Anyway back to work.

Episode 7 was another good one, but I'm really surprised with yet another massive drop in ratings. Just why is the rating so inconsistent? I liked Mok-ha's song here but so far Someday is still the best for me. I hope there will be another duel between her and Mo-rae, and this time with no excuse from Mo-rae. Bo-geol did all he can to increase the chance of Mok-ha winning by programming the LED lights to be like the ocean. One of the things that I'm not really a fan of in kdrama is long drawn out love triangles. Especially ones when one corner of the triangle has no chance but the writers are using it to confuse the female lead and should I say annoy the viewers. If this so called love triangle between Mok-ha, Bo-geol and Woo-hak goes beyond episode 8 I will really be very dissapointed. Dangerous times for Ki-ho and family as the evil ex-cop father seem to have discovered their new identities. I have several questions and will start with who is the old lady who said she is Yoon Ran-joo. Is she Yoon Ran-joo's mother? My biggest query is just what exactly is Mok-ha planning by seemingly leaving Yoon Ran-joo and entertaining the bad CEOs offer to become an artist under his agency. Surely she will not betray Ran-joo, so I reckon if ever she decides to join the agency, there will be a condition for Ran-joo to obtain her 50% share.

Found a few in You Tube and they are likely the same one's you saw.

Where can I find this video clip? Found it. I have some POV about it which I will post later.

Currently suffering LSS with Someday. I'm at fault too because I've been playing it more than 10 times a day lol

I appreciate this long POV of episodes 5 to 6, but quirkycase seem to have a different idea on who is the real Ki-ho. Ki-ho is Bo-geol not Woo-hak. Anyway I have some thoughts/questions for episode 7. Bo-geol said in the previous episode that Mok-ha should come on stage if Ran-joo wins the contest. Does this imply that Ran-joo will beat Mo-rae, because on the teaser it showed Mok-ha being glammed upped. I believe this would be the case since during Mok-ha's confrontation with Mo-rae, she said that she will acknowledge that maybe she couldn't be a diva like Mo-rae if Mo-rae beats Ran-joo. It's just rocks paper scissors in this situation. We know that Mok-ha is better than current Ran-joo so if Mo-rae can't beat Ran-joo then she couldn't be better than Mok-ha. The scene showing Bo-geol meeting with the evil CEO I wonder if that occurred before the ending events of episode 6. I'm even wondering if the CEO somehow knows that Bo-geol planned to have Mok-ha and Mo-rae sing live. Btw is it just me or the young actress playing the young Mok-ha looks like Park Shin Hye with her bangs.

Episode 6 was quite nice and I'm glad that Kang Bo-geol is Kiho because I find Kang Woo-hak's character annoying. I expect the next episode to be a new ratings high with Seo Mok-ha singing while (I hope) all glammed up. I suspect Mok-ha will look like her imagination during Ran-joo's 2008 vs 2022. Funny that despite being the current diva Eun Mo-rae is still not confident enought to beat Yoon Ran-joo. My favorite part of the episode was when Bo-geol basically forced the hand of both Mo-rae and Mok-ha to sing live. I reckon he already had suspicion that Ran-joo didn't sing in the local Deodeok festival. Maybe from recognizing Mok-ha's voice? Regardless his suspicion was confirmed by watching the wedding duet between Ran-joo and Mok-ha. Interesting what Ran-joo will say to apologize to the viewers. If she say she's just lip syncing, then that's going to be the end of her career, and she will likely not sell any more albums, thus fail to get her 50% share of RJ. I hope there will be a singing duel between Eun Mo-rae and Mok-ha?
