| Lee Sung Kyung's biggest break

I really got hooked at kdrama more after watching this. I love the soundtrack and the plot is so simple but its unique though I know that this is based on a true story. I love the chemistry between the leads ( so sad they broken up), the friends, the teachers and the uncle is so funny. The female lead has always been casted as a villain or a bad girl. It is so refreshing that she did this role. It truly suits her and her acting is good.
