Frankly, I don't ever want Samdalri to end. How could I leave beautiful Jeju and the inhabitants of Samdalri? How could I bid goodbye to those sweet, funny, lovable haenyeos? How to end the strong bonds of family and friends that give a fuzzy warmth in your tummy and heart? How not to miss the love and camaraderie that just pervade Samdalri and pull in whoever makes it their home? How not to not smile at the little, serious girl who thinks of everyone but herself? How not to cry with Sang Do and pat him on the shoulder for being generous? How not to stop this gushing heart at the two lovebirds - Cho Yong Pil and Cho Sam Dal and rooting for them non-stop? Superb acting all around - Shin Hye Sun never fails with hers and Ji Wook is a sight for my tired eyes. I worried, cried, shouted, fought, laughed (till my sides ached at the hanyeos antics, Sam Dal's best buddies, the timid AS heir and his aggressive ex), and rejoiced with them - feeling that hey, I'm a Samdalrian too! group hug everyone! Superb cast and superb directing = unforgettable, high quality drama. Kamsahamnida!

This drama transported me back to Harry Porter magic. The visuals and fast paced actions are simply fantastic and I just couldnt wait for each new episode. The cast is very good, their acting superb. They made it possible for us to immerse ourselves in their world and to wait with bated breath for only good things to happen to naksu and jang uk and the good ones and punish the evildoers.
