hmm

It was good, not really funny. I agree that it remind me The devil wears prada's movie -particularly the scnene where the Madame arrives- I'm just waiting for the episode where the poor girl with no sense of fashion will become glamorous. Anyway, I'll give this a chance.

I feel this will be a great drama

Right now with exams on the way I am trying to stay away from dramas, but I couldn't resist taking a glimpse or should I say the whole first episode. Actors in this one have earned my respect. They have a lot of experience I think it will be heading in the right direction. Park Shi Hoo new side is unpredictable, you never know where he will take you. Although I am not used to it right now, I hope will get into it.

As for the manager (from glowing she, heartstrings) I have mixed feelings because I am not sure about her intentions for giving Han Se Kyung a job. What is she trying to pull off- is it that she tries to prove the point that she became more successful due to cheating her way into success? Or she wants to make fun of her? probably both - I just hope it won't turn into a dramatic scenario!!!!!!! We'll wait and see

And lastly Han Se Kyung, she is a designer. Yet, she is criticized for not having the insight or the fashion style. But can't she make her own designs and show them off - that can be the best way to become famous. Right?

Liked it but didnt love it

You know ,when you watch a drama,it has this attraction that makes you hook from the first episode,well this drama doesnt have that. Though it has a lot of things we saw a million times in a Korean drama...Crazy bitches,Fashion brand-crazed unsuccessful women looking for rich men,revenge,Korean people trying to speak French with weird accents and so on and so forth... I dont really like the plot so far since its very predictable,but its also unfair to just just yet,since its only the first episode!

It's going to be an average one.

I decided to watch this on a whim, after being familiar with all of the main actors. For a first episode, the plot seemed to be going a bit quickly, but I'm guessing there is going to be a lot to the storyline. That is, unless, they decide to rush though it and then mess around for the last 3 episodes or so. I liked Park Shi Yoon in this, he's going to have a good character. I'm usually not a fan of Moon Geun Young, but maybe she won't be so bad.
I'm not expecting this to be a favourite, but it certainly won't be bad.

Devil Wears Prada

Plot is just like Hollywood movie "Devil wears prada". Girl is accepted to a job but her manager says she is not qualified because of her fazhion sense, than manager judges her with her clothes. But she is a determined person. But i believe there will be more romance. i like it so far.

Only time will tell...

I see potential, but it all depends how this will play out. This is a story of an average girl trying to make something of herself despite her unfortunate circumstances. That is what I got from this first episode anyways.
Park Shi Hoo's character is definitely going to be a good one, he seems a little bit crazy on the idea of revenge, in a funny way. We wait and see!

ASSAA! Park Shi Hoo's smile is back! :)

I foresee a fun character of PSH in the future. He is funny! I didn't expect that he will do it to his father! LOL at the the negotiation process.. And.. He is.. sick? Psychological, that is. Maybe that was the reason he was acting weird at least for me--or rather childish.. From the first ep, I think it will be a revenge-rom-com drama-- for his father (I think it wasn't serious though) and for his ex.

Moon Geun Young's present shabby fashion sense is agreeable., however, how can she dress fashionably when even their house was on a loan?
It's my first time watching MGY and for me, she's okay..First ep and the female antagonist had an offensive strike already.. :P
