    ok, so maybe i should start by saying i'm a very sensitive person and usually get too attached to characters, so the reason i gave this drama such a low score on my list is the end, which i'm sure you can guess by now is not good. if only the end was good i would give the drama 10. it was very hard for me to recover after that.

    so if you don't mind that the drama has a bad end, you should watch it 'cause like others said, it's a great story and also the acting is excellent. if you are sensitive like me or just don't like bad ends in general, do not! watch this drama.

    First off, I'm writing this right as I finished watching the show. Had tears running down my cheeks for the past 20 minutes now because they just won't seem to stop.

    Story - 10 : It's definitely a story that interested me. Two babies switched at birth by a vengeful nurse, only to discover later on in life what happened.

    Acting/Cast - 10 : This one explains itself if you watch the show. The acting was fantastic. The actors portraying nice characters had you loving them at all times; the actors portraying "villains" had you wishing you had the ability to hit people through your screen.
    There was, of course, the few English speaking actors every now and then that took overacting to a whole new

    I only made it to ep 5 and I gotta say... wow this shit sucks. Had a nice story and all, slightly cliche, but it's just so overly dramatic and lame. Like their weird sign language thing, I can stand seeing that lame shit once or twice but they did it like ALL the time! It's not like anyone was deaf or mute. How about talking instead of doing lame sign language and constantly screaming and crying like little girls?

    This is the first 50 episodes drama I can watch and enjoy without having to skip the boring parts. Although the end of the story makes people interprets it differently, the storyline is brilliant. One of the best korean drama

    The drama was awesome but the ending sucks.. like always. I don't understand how script writers can ruin a brilliant story like this!! It started out great, really thrilling, emotional, it had everything a good drama needs.. not to forget the awesome OST... the characters and the way they developed were interesting... I liked that you could NEVER predict what would happen next.. at the end of every episode i wanted to watch more cause it was simply that good! I cried and laughed a lot!!
    Overall an awesome drama. I would definitely recommend it!!
    But the ending man :( the ending..so disappointing and so many questions left unanswered. After this drama I'll need a break from depressing stuff.

    It started out great (really interesting) then it went downhill after the scriptwriters had no idea which direction to head. Total bummer, really. Overall, it's still a great drama. It could have been superb.
