since i allready saw the other 2 version of it this one did not reach my expectations. the story was way too compressed in those 9 eps, and since it didn`t follow the pattern it could`ve been better if they adjusted it so it will fit for 9 eps. it was funny allright but that`s all. i didn`t really like the acting, it was ordinary but Kotoko was way too noisy (as in too loud) i mean, why did she have to yell every single time?it was disturbing, i know that it`s her nature to make a fuss over anything but this kind of Kotoko was anoying even for me.they should`ve worked harder at it.

This is the second drama to have captured my undivided attention. I've never seen a drama that can portray mental illness, suicide, rape and such dark subjects and portray it well.



Vic and Barbies preformances were flawless and spectacular. Other than the 1 Litre of Tears drama, I've never seen such amazing acting.



The director had a habit of not playing music at times which just added to the creepy atmosphere. I thought it worked well with the scenes. When there was music, such as the theme song, they were all well chosen.



This is one drama you won't regret watching.

I love this story no matter where it is made. I would prolly never happen where I'm from b/c us chicks don't want to seem that desperate to follow a guy around for 5 yrs. Neway, love the story, love the actors, the music was good (had to look it up so I could dl it). I will watch this 1 again in the future b/c it's 1 of my fave stories. Know I laughed more watching this version than the Korean 1. This was like crack to me had to stay up all nite to finish it & then get my butt to work at 6am. Yeah voted as "crack-drama."



I had a hard time finding links that would play the drama but I looked everywhere & finished it. Glad I did too b/c the end was the bestest!

I have never seen a drama that has made quite an impact on me as this one has. This drama is based off of the true story of Aya Kito and it really is upsetting that this disease truly exists without a cure. Every day now I feel happy that I can speak, write and walk while she had to continue living as she lost those abilities.



The main actress and actor had such amazing chemistry that even after months, just hearing the song "Konayuki" by Remioromen breaks my heart. Thus being said the soundtrack is beautiful.



The reason I didn't give the rewatch value a 10 is because, despite this being a flawless drama, it's too heartbreaking for me to watch again. I would really love to, since it's my favorite, but I have never cried so much in my life. You will want to watch it again but if you are like me, you're not sure your heart can take it.

What can I say? I loved this drama! It's, without a doubt, one of the best I've seen so far. It had me hooked from the very beginning, leaving little space for dull moments. Every time a plot twist was resolved, it only meant the beginning of another that would just keep as hooked as the one that just ended.



Some may say it's a mix of Coffee Prince, Hana Kimi and Boys Before Flowers. But to me, this falls short to the final product. Even if it uses familiar themes present in these other dramas, Sungkyunkwan Scandal's characters are different and the plot refreshing. It is too simple to describe it as a combination of the aforementioned stories, for its historical setting and character development make it stand on a whole different level. The interaction between students, the plots set about by powerful officials, the displays of affection and the scandals...it wouldn't have been the same in a contemporary setting.



And, as a plus, for all us fangirls out there, the guys in this drama are so cute...it was a joy to watch so much eye candy on screen.

Story- Liked that it is real life based. Veryy funny storyline with the sloppy working girl and professional boss living together. Its nice to see thier friendship grow. Their\''s romance in there but not who you think. The end leaves an opening for season 2.

Acting- Hotaru is a character that is well rounded. Shes laid back and silly but knows when to get it together. Sometimes its hard to like her character cause she seems to naive at times. The actress did a great job portraying her different qualities. Seiichi is manly but has a shy exterior. Its hard to show his feelings.Thats why he gets no romance in this sseason. I really liked the supporting cast!

Music- I don\''t really remember the music so id rate it average.

Overall- A nice romance drama that will teach you about hard work and how to balance that with having fun.

Story- Had an interesting start. The writers did a great job of writing Misaki\''s character growth. She matures into a real cabin attendant but still keeps a little part of her rough edge. The romance part as in most J dramas lacked. I feel like there was room for more comedic moments. The end was cute.

Acting/ Cast- The lead female was very fun to watch. The actress did a great job. The supporting cast filled their roles well.

Music- The theme song is a remake of Pretty Woman. A cool rock version. There wasnt too much music in this one.

Overall- A drama to entertain you when your bored. Not one of the best J dramas Ive seen. I didn\''t bother to watch the specials for this one.
