This was an average show with many many plot twists, bad music, bad acting and extremely unrealistic storytelling. But still, there was something that gave me the feels. I can say I enjoyed the mess. I often watched this show while cooking or doing something else, all important moments got repeated countless times so even if you miss a few episodes you won't miss anything.If you can get past the woman hating in the beginning you will be awarded in the end. Good wins and bad gets to learn the lesson + a chance to redeem itself. No matter how I hated the baddies they were often the most interesting to watch and they were the ones who drove the plot forward. But God did I hate them, they made my blood boil and one of the reasons why I finished this drama was to see them suffer. The show gets boring at some point but there is always something refreshing happening all the time, never mind it's unrealistic and stupid. Just don't take this show too seriously.
Even though there was enough time to tie all loose ends some things were not explained properly. Anyway, the ending was decent no less. Personally I was a bit disappointed with the pairing, probably I am the only one who wished Hana to end up with that other guy.

Highlights:
- The second male lead is really charismatic and cool, too bad he's not utilized enough in the drama.
- The revenge plot is built up A LOT and tries to satisfy the viewers in every way possible.
Negatives:
- The story is erratic and it's obviously trying to hold on to the original plan although the viewers want something else.
- The gender bender is not done convincingly. It just doesn't feel authentic and messes a bit with the overall atmosphere.
- The story is very black and white and so are the characters. The bad people are too bad and the good to good. Makes for a predictable and generic story.

They say the well acted the villan the true acting of the hero shows. You will love this drama. Other drama will get you board specially if it is 100 episodes or more but this one starts really slow then speed up as the story

One Well messed Drama by FL
FL of this drama had no kiss scene with the man she end up together at enddo you know why because she was dating One of male lead
not dating but cheating on her 12 year old relationship with this actor in this drama
and because of that she forced director to make her and that lead actor lovers and had nothing to with male lead which she end up together...
i liked this drama at start but the fact that FL forced story according her
had no or not even try to show any feeling for other male lead in this show was just big demonstration of her Unprofessional behaviour

- This drama kicked in AFTER EPISODE 6 for me. It took 2 weeks to get there and 2 days to finish it after that.
What I Liked:
1. THE PLOT
WATCH THIS ONE FOR THE STORYLINE. A passionate young girls' journey from childhood to adulthood as she tries to break through a fierce traditional prejudice. From the age of 8 she had to dress and act like a boy (Eun-Seong) in order to be accepted and trained to get an inheritance that for 400 years only Men in the family were allowed to have.
2. THE way LOVE was presented
The writers took protective love and love that gives freedom and presented it to us very very well.
3. THE COMEDY
Two women gave performances that stole every scene they were in. Their Characters were very well cast. Even without much Character development they stood out and added comic relief and warmth.
4. SATISFACTION
This drama is full of satisfactory moments!. They don't make you stew over unfair treatment without giving you the satisfaction of getting a good knock out punch in every time!
5. HOW/WHY DID I WATCH 122 Episodes?
a) I used the Watchsome-Skipsome method. b)The story line was good and strong and overshadowed the things I disliked. For the most part the actors did a great job with the script they got and there were times this drama hooked me solid. A lot of people will really like it and you might like it as well.

If you care to know WHAT I DISLIKED about this drama read on. If you're going to give this drama a shot, DON'T READ ON. Instead, for the impatient like me, bear with it through episode 6 after that it takes off. :)

What I Disliked: (please remember this is IMO if you completely disagree I totally respect that.)
1. THE FEMALE LEAD in the roll of Adult Jang Ha Na
First of all, I have to say up front - they should have changed the main female once she passed out of Teen-hood. There were ample opportunities to do it. Park Han Byul's cute innocent look and feel did not live up to the qualities that Jang Ha Na needed to be believable. The adult roll of Jang Ha Na would have suited Yoon Se In (who played her half sister) much better.
2. NO SEXUAL/ROMANTIC CHEMISTRY WHATSOEVER EVER EVER EVER
They present us with a triangle very early on and If they're gonna do that, they should ante up some chemistry. Yoon Se In worked hard and tried her best with the triangle/romantic scenes. And that's the problem. I could see it. - If you want great romantic chemistry with your FD, I suggest the drama Ugly Alert.
3. THE STRETCHING/ REPETITIONS,
FINE it's 122 episodes. That means the writers should skillfully fill the scenes with lines other than -We'll see after we compete next week, next week, we'll see next week, it'll all be over next week and the segments with something other than a NEW competition to see who deserves the job. I think I counted 4 or more RE-competitions, you'll probably end up counting them as well :+/
5. ANTI-CLIMATIC ENDING
This drama should have been 20-25 episodes Max. but they wanted to give us 122 so they did.
There are many climaxes in this story and they're good! But with that many episodes creativity and enthusiasm can run dry and as a result the ending is not unpleasant but it's lackluster.
WITH ALL THESE grievances, I STILL WATCHED 122 EPISODES through to finish and I didn't viciously want my time emailed back to me:)

I started watching the drama to distract myself a little from the exams stress. I thought it would be really predictable and easy to watch, so I chose this even though the plot doesn't sound that great.
First of all do not watch this Drama if you are a feminist XD From the first episode on we are shown that men are superior to women.
The plot is okay, but gets a little absurd after a time, like many plots of kdramas that long. But if you liked other daily dramas, this shouldn't be a problem for you. The only major problem i had where that I didn't know until the end with whom she would end up and tbh watching 60 hours of a drama not knowing who to root for is actually really stressful. I ended up rooting for the second lead so i was a little disappointed at the end.
In my opinion it's a drama you can easily watch i there's nothing better to do, but don't expect to much. It will hook you, but it will also frustrate you so much. i hated like 80% of the roles XD

The best part so far is the relationships between Hanna/Eunseong and the two male leads. Each romance has its own charm and each gives you butterflies. Personally though, I'm rooting for the stoic but standfast Yoonchan. I want them to be together so bad!
The only thing I would really like to change is I wanted the sis to leave the family and have a redemption arc. I guess I still have 50+ episodes to watch, so maybe it can still happen!
