This drama was pretty depressing from the beginning till end... the storyline only weaves between love and hate, and besides being draggy, it somehow doesn't bring up that kind of happy feeling in you while watching it... I love Bi, but I was kinda dreading the next episode, cos to me, the deeper the love gets, the sadder the revenge becomes... I think this is the only drama which I didn't shed a tear for.. It's like how georgeyklee put it "...like they already gave out the ending story." That is so true

I have to agree with you. You're right. It was pathetic how not even Bi (an actor and hottie i enjoy watching) couldnt save the drama. The whole idea of the plot was great, i loved the whole having to choose between love and revenge. But i just couldnt bear watching it! I skimmed some of it, skipped a few episodes (i knew everything that was going to happen before it happened, most of the time) and then finally i just fast fowarded to the end. Which was very unsatisfying by the way....Like you said KoreanMania, this was also the only drama i never shed a tear for. And i cry easily in happy or sad parts of dramas. Whether they're comedies or tragedies. So for this not to have made me cry in the least, is saying something in my books.KoreanMania wrote:This drama was pretty depressing from the beginning till end... the storyline only weaves between love and hate, and besides being draggy, it somehow doesn't bring up that kind of happy feeling in you while watching it...

But i will say this nice thing about it, i liked Bi's wardrobe alot more in this drama than i did in Full House. Really showed off his sexiness

I really liked the music and camera-works of this drama...I thought it was nicely shot like I'm Sorry I Love You...but the plot was terrrrriblee...Shin Mina (sorry I don't know how to spell her name) and Bi make a cute couple but the storyline just plunked...I had to fastfoward the last couple episodes b/c they were draggy and depressing....I'm still confused about the end...

Bi probably wants to prove himself as a versatile actor. Well, we can not take away from him that desire. However, for me it's too early to be on a series like this one. I still want to see him in more romantic series, with different leading ladies like Song Hye Go. Perhaps with Lee Dae Hee or that lead female star in the Princess Hours.

I am on episode 14 already, and it's really getting heartbreaking. It's getting difficult for me to watch it continuously. I still maintain that Rain should not be doing this kind of role yet. Because of the plot, others tend to compare Rain's portrayal to So Ji Sup's role in I'm Sorry I Love You. Although, I love Rain, I still believe that So Ji Sup's portrayal in ISILY was more convincing than Rain. But, probably Rain doesn't want to be typecast to boy next door role. But, that can't be avoided, his looks especially when he smiles, cater to romantic comedy series.
However, the lead actress is good, but lacks chemistry with Rain.

I finally finished watching this series. I must say I really enjoyed it. It was a very nice rendition of tragic romance. The first few episodes were hard to get thru though. I think I watched episode 1 at least 3 times. But once I got about halfway through I couldn't stop. The acting was pretty good, except for a few scenes were Rain(?) was trying to act uninterested. The two main songs were a perfect fit for the series. I downloaded the OST the day after I finshed the series just for those two songs.

Contrary to what people said in this forum.
Shin Min ah, I think her acting skills are top class. Not flawless, some scene just aint look right but dont really effect much to her overall performance. I really like Shin Min Ah here, she's still growing and I have great expectations for her in the future. I wish the story writer dont let her character cry alot in this series... I like her better smiling. In any case, I dont see how any other actress could fit the character. elegant n yet simple. . something like that :p
Rain/bi, he's also good. I think he's getting better too. In terms of acting performance, are not better than SMA's. same thing. Some scene just aint natural. Well, Im not his fan and Im a guy so... whatever. But he should be one of the promising actor in the future .
Kim Sa-rang.. that's her name right? anyway, I think she's great. accent a bit unusual tho but not annoying. Im only annoyed by her character action and facial expression of the character. Erm.. she plays it well. DJ looks selfish, strong, kind, stubborn mix well together.
Storyline... need some additional works in it. The story fits perfectly with the title and the theme song by Lee Soo Young tho. 2 love birds with a mirror between them. Can see thru but cannot be exactly together. they just watch and dream about each other. Sucky world but it happens. The only complain I have is the reason they cannot be together. It's very lame reasoning..
Summary, Not something I prefer to watch in general. But hell, I like SMA.. i'll watch any movie she makes. ^^. her smiling and laughing face.
Note: Play cheerful drama next time SMA!!

In Other Words He Is Always Between Them Because He Is A Huge Part Of Both Of Them ..

i love ijuksa
Despite the suspect pacing after Bok Goo's revenge is completed, this drama has amazing cinematography, a haunting OST and i think Rain and SMA have good chemistry. SMA is very girlishly pretty, and so fragile and beautiful. Rain as usual is -hot-..
I love the fact that the trailer is a figurative interpretation of what Bok Goo does to Eun Seok.. I didn't like the sad ending (his brother already GAVE him the go-ahead to take care of Eun Seok), but I loved the drama as a whole !

woah.
I heavily recommend this drama as well
Passionate and Loving.
Not to be missed by those that loved "Im Sorry I Love You" .
The chemistry is undescrible and the kissing scenes were totally H-O-T.
I thought Bi(rain) improved loads from his previous drama " Full house"

I feel the same! The ending was pretty unfair! It was a bit unreasonable to be that sad. Cuz the bro alredy gave permission as you said *sigh* And it was a bit strange them all end up like that, at least bro should have stayed alive then or something... Overall drama was GREAT! Rain was COOL!! the way he dressed up was also very cute^^ Girl was beautiful too.

I had high hopes for this drama. But honestly, it really disappointed me. I thought the storyline and the characters were great! But the directing and the actual drama werent as good as they seemed in theory. It got really draggy in the middle. I ended up fast fowarding episodes a lot! I actually skipped a whoel episode. And then the ending was horrible. This drama just made me sad.

I actually enjoyed this show a lot. I thought the first 3/4 of the show as freaking awesome. I was always excited to see the next episode. The the first 3/4 of the of the show left a big impression on me and it shoots this show up high on my list of best kdramas. I actually had no problem with the pacing of this show.
The problem with this show to me is that it climaxed too early. The final fourth of the show was... bleh! Most especially the final episode...

I've started this drama several times with the first ep. but never came to watch the second... till thursday.... I finished ALTK yesterday *damn it, I'm a yunkie...*
and it was/is great.. for me ways better than heaven's tree, to be honest..
I don't think of Bi as such a handsome guy but he did a really good job in here.. Only saw Full House with him and now I prefer him as Bok-Goo..
But sometimes he reminds me of So Ji Sub in MISA, too.. I don't know why, but especially in these crying-scenes..
LOVE IT!!

wow.. hate? ^-^ I'm a big fan of good/ happy endings ..but.. well, i think why it ended like this - their feelings of guilty because of his brother - is a good and *for me* a new reason for an end so I was not THAT shocked or surprised..
but to be honest, an ending without their seperation and feelings of guilty would have been great too
A love to kill
What do you think of this movie? Do you guys consider loving it or thinking it should be better?

I loved the first 10 episodes of this drama but if I could take back my lost hours from the last 6 episodes I would. I absolutely hated them. I adore Bi and wanted so bad to love this drama because Sangdoo and Fullhouse are two of my faves but I just couldn't like it. Too much back and forth with the main characters and too much screaming and crying. Bi was good as always with his part and when he cries I cry but I wasn't feeling it with the other cast members. The ending just sucked for me. So...if I do watch it again it will only be the first 10 episodes and then I will have to get creative and make up my own ending LOL

Yeah, I didn't like him that much in Full House, because it mainly consisted of fighting and yelling, even the funny parts were hilariousEpikLow wrote: i didn't like full house... he fought and yelled too much... kinda like this one lolz.
I would like to see him in funnier parts too, but these sad roles like in A Love to Kill or Sang-Doo, let's go to school suit him very well... Love a love to kill ^-^
hehehe yea at least he looks hot also! hehe that had nothing to do with anything, but i just wanted to add that!littledraci wrote:Yeah, I didn't like him that much in Full House, because it mainly consisted of fighting and yelling, even the funny parts were hilariousEpikLow wrote: i didn't like full house... he fought and yelled too much... kinda like this one lolz.

unfortunally you're not the only one, who thinks so,
I have to admit, at first I wasn't that interested in it, too
But after my third try *I started around 3 times with the first ep and couldn't watch through every time * I think i was in the right mood.... and watched 5 episodes in a row
But yeah, you're sure not the only one thinking his way...
nevertheless,I still think, A Love to Kill is mostly underrated

I watched it about 2 months ago. Loved it, it was just brilliant. I like the OST song(K.will - dream) and every time I watch MV, it just... the feeling comes back... Just like it was back in the good days, when I just started kdrama. I feel like watching it again, but not much time has passed... I'm in kdrama business for quite a while now, I've seen quite a lot of dramas but the first ones where the most precious and best. My top5 contained pretty much only the first dramas I've watched, but this drama makes me reconsider. It's definitely in top5.
For those who want to recall the feeling.
