This is my top Kdrama...there are others that I have repeatedly watch over and over again...and I am watching this for the 10th time? Lol...So Ji Sub is dripping with sex appeal and so much awesomeness and Shin Mina is just as amazing in her role... this is about a woman dumped by her man of 15 years, that's lost her way and gained lots of weight in a relationship that went nowhere. Her meeting him (lead guy) on a plane after falling ill. SJS is the docto that saves her. This is a great start to this drama. The first episode hooks you with it's beginning of how beautiful and admired by everyone at school in her teen days to the way she looks now 15 years later. It's funny and one can relate to how time and life can change you.
Every episode is funny and it grips you in a way that it makes you want to keep watching. It's not heavy and overly dramatic like some Kdramas and I've seen over 200 it's the closest I've seen where the male lead touches the female lead a lot mainly because he's a doctor and personal trainer. Other dramas take forever to even hold hands. Everyone of the cast play their parts well in being funny, sad, annoying, loving, caring...I watch it because it's romantic and inspiring in ways. If you've never watched Kdramas, I would suggest watching others like Strong Girl and others first ...because if you like seeing couples being fun, caring, flirting, teasing...you will get it in this one. It will ruin you for the others as it's not common for Kdramas to be like that. I haven't found a drama that has the right mix like Venus. Their chemistry is great. That's why I keep watching this every couple of months or so. It's not sleazy and predictable like western ones are. So far, my no.1 Kdrama for the last 2.5 years.
