Loved this J-drama, loved the actors and especially loved how how the ending was left open to romantic interpretation. However, I cannot understand why the subtitle writers cannot follow the actors' actual conversations. It is so distracting to hear one thing and read a completely different sentence. To whomever makes the decision to go with this practice: Either dub it with matching subtitles or don't dub the shows at ALL! It is very distracting- and yes some people do actually listen while they read!

One star review because no 0- star reviews! I was only able to watch the first 5 minutes of ep. 1, season 2, and I was done. The stilted conversation between Martin and MM was off-putting from the get-go. I mean are they really friends? It seemed more like a scripted show with no emotion ( unless you take MM's huge fake smile into account), but here's what really did it for me: The "duchess" who lives in a $14m home doesn't own a mandolin in oder to slice really thin (or not) onions? She can run her butt over to Target and buy one for under $20. By the time I saw her about to hand Martin a chef's knife point first and then set in on the counter with the blade facing him - it was obvious the only thing she really cooks is pancakes for her kids. Really wanted to like this show, but watching paint dry is more entertaining!
