"Awkward" is the best way to describe this show... I am still watching because I kind of want to see how the characters get back to each other, but I have a feeling it will be pretty predictable and more "awkward" than anything.

Hmmm. Looks uninteresting. =X

Funny how the leads dress up with cowboy costume. Is it typical in Korea to parade in the ranch with these clothing? Just asking jb!

Although I'm a TVXQ fan, it's disheartening to say that the only series that stars a TVXQ member in it that I have finished would be Sungkyunkwan Scandal. Ide. Chagmin, he's so amazing onstage. I think that the drama itself is a awkward (not the actors alone, but the whole thing). >< Aigoo. I couldn't even bring myself to watch episode 1 until the end. T____________T

I like Joo Sang-Wook's character. Mature and attractive. :D

oh well im not also into this drama , but for those who like it enjoy

Thanks javabeans for the clarification. Four episodes in and I was still hoping you would continue to recap this series but I totally respect your decision.

the story and cowboy theme is just weird. plus changmin and lee yeon hee make not-a-so-interesting-couple to me. i was initially going to watch it for yoo hana but even she can't save this show. overall very weak. i think its a good idea not to recap

well, no suprise there if U decide not to do the review anymore..the reason that im still hooked at this series is changmin (im his bias!).. and i also want to know wat are the reasons for both of this couple to get divorce after 6 months of marriage..other than that, doesnt appeal much to me.. :(

I'm still watching the show _ but i totally understand why you dont want to recap this drama...the character & performance were not so good. Just want to support Changmin but I hate to admit it.. but he's no good either.

I do not mind at all that you are doing no recaps!

I do want to THANK YOU though for your recommendations (all INDIRECT!!) ...

about PASTA!!

I would not have watched it otherwise. But I am currently glued to the screen and enjoying every second of the interaction between the leads. It is thoroughly enjoyable.

sigh changmin just looks awkward even in those poster :'( let alone the drama just watching the first 30min of ep 1 i dozed off TT_TT"
which is saying a lot since i even made it through the snoozefest "mary stayed out all night"

I kind of like it , but i hate her hair and she looks
so clumsy.

Demands? Well, that's just...the audacity! You're under no obligation to provide recaps, sheesh! Sorry. Rant over.

My own thoughts: not as bad as I thought it would, but not particularly good either. Not quite as middling as It's Okay, Daddy's Girl, but not as fun as Pasta. Sorta somewhere in the middle.

I think the lack of chemistry is killing it. The leads seem like they should make a perfectly respectable couple...but don't. Not really. And they haven't really played up the cute either, which I think is an odd directing choice. I'm usually a sucker for the comedy of remarriage (Kiss Me Kate is one of my favorite movies), but I don't know why they haven't harped on this in the show when it's a goldmine of cute AND romantic. Is this not a romantic comedy?

i think the drama is really funny and the main couple is very cute with each other.......XD.

I think the Drama over all is not HORRIBLE..is just there. I'm watching cause I need something to watch between DH and MP... :P

The story is getting interestes cause it seemed that both second leads were also married to each other, but after a year of divorced they reunite once again. So, that caught my attention, so I might keep watching to see how the whole thing unravels.

But I agree JB, to be a small drama with no great viewership anticipation, is doing well.

Viki is subbing it? Are there any soft subs ? I read that GOESS is subbing it but they are slow ... compared to WITHS2. I appreciate that subbers are putting their efforts in but these days ... having to wait more than a week for subs is plain painful. Perhaps that's why there are requests and demands for recaps.

I like soft subs cos I can pop them into my media player -along with the 720P files and beam them on my TV. It is HEAVEN.

The 2nd poster... Lee Yeonhee's face... WTF? It looks randomly photo-shopped there.
And yeah... The show... Every bit as boring as it sounds. How could anyone ever even think that script would make a good story? It's beyond me.

I always thought Changmin looked awkward....this show DIDN'T help my impression of him. But that's his charm. Cute. haha it seems like I like cute idols like Changmin and Onew :DDD

MAX TIME Rules!

This show is sooo adorable for Changmin. He is tooo cute. Yeah so what if he isn't supposed to be that cute and is supposed to be older and more polishedly spoiled. I like it! He is cute!

Changmin fans unite for his cute! To heck with the show being good or not. It is dang entertaining either way!

I'm watching the show, but more out of boredom than anything else.
I think it's the first time I realized, without someone pointing it out, that the reason I don't like this drama more, is because of the bad acting.
The story is well-known, with it's rectangle-love and everything is as expected, but well aplied cliché could work...
So really it's the awkward acting.. I'm still watching though xD, don't really know why ^^

To be honest , i'm watching the drama bec of Lee Yeon-hee. I'm so curious about her. why? she is being paired to hot guys .. Gong You, Song Seung Hun, Hyun Bin! she must be doing something good.
Not a real , real fan of her, but i like her.

The first time i saw her on "One Fine Day", right there and then, i knew she has this "it" factor.
Surprisingly, this drama introduces a new guy to watch for me. TaDA! presenting Joo Sang Wook , the new guy on the block. added to my list :)

JB/GF, No worries about the recaps. You're not oblige. As long as the DH and the MP are up, no complain.:)
Thanks.

saw part of first episode meh......

I started watching this from Ep1 and the story line is okay, but for some reason, I keep watching this show.

Yeah the cast is a bit off, I'm not a fan on Lee yeon Hee literally screaming and making her a huge clutz in the show (Wasn't a fan of her in East of Eden) but at least she somewhat matches up with Changmin...

I really didnt think the 2nd lead Joo Sang Wook would be so good lookin! I've never heard of him or watch him in his other dramas till I watched Paradise Ranch.. but he's definitely got me hooked to watch this.. (plus a cameo in My princess !) but other than that I might actually keep watching this..

Posters are okay??? but Thanks for posting!

jajajajajajajajajajaj really people the only think i have for this page and all the bad comments is jajajajajajajajajajajaj the drama is good I am watching so far is greattt how come this is the only page is have this kind of comments cause other webpages ang good ones better than this is giving good comments about the drama well i think is cause you guys have nothing else to do well Paraside Ranch is good drama good actors so if you don't like bad for your

ps.. Lee Yeon Hee have work with the best cause she is good... dont be haters :)

I actually think the plot is different and I'm interested in it... and NO I'm not a changMin fan (To tell the truth I suffer seeing how bad he acts... also he isn't cute or handsome either... just Ok.) But well so why I watch this drama? Is just because of the divorce history, I want badly to know why! lol And I swear I was going to drop it, but JSW is just so handsome... he smiles, I smile LOL

-And have so many boring and storyline that are bad but a lot of people like.... like ''BOF or YAB'' what The....

I think Joo Sang Wook played Son Ye Jin's second husband in 'My Wife got Married'...it was a small role but he was really good in it and I agree he has a great screen presence.

I'm not really a fan of Lee Yeon Hee but she has an undeniable star quality..she was good in that short film she did with So Ji Sub.

too bad you're not recapping this drama anymore! i find this far more watchable than dream high....i guess, i'll just have to wait for eng subs to be released to be able to able to understand whats going on...this drama doesn't have a "wow" factor but it still keeps me coming back everything week...it's just a chill drama to watch.

I was initially interested in the drama at first, but after I saw the preview, I was like hello no. I like Changmin, but he's just not as good at acting as he does at singing. But maybe that's because this is his first drama, he still has room to grow. I was kinda surprised by Lee Yeonhee though. I thought she's a good actress, I've never seen any of her drama so that's my silly assumption. She overacts, I can just tell by the preview. So I didn't even bother to watch it :P

I figured. When I didn't see an episode 2 pop up for a couple of days, I was like, ok yea that's a no go. No biggie. I still haven't gotten to the third episode yet. ... :)

will you still be watching the drama, jb?

I personally didn't want to watch it because the trailers looked bad. i love changmin, but the story nor the actress pulled me in. her hair is so bad and a distraction. the 2nd lead actor is hot but he is a bit old compared to the rest...

I am a changmin biased but after watching epsd 1 I think he should stick at singing. His awkward acting sorta makes me cringe... But I am now kinda excited to see his acting in athena. Hopefully he will do better here.

I feel like every lighthearted drama is letting me down lately. First Mary, now this.

If they had just stuck with the idea of two somewhat stupid (but adorably so) characters that are each others' match that they presented in the first half of the first episode (yeah, so a bit of a stretch) I think it would have worked out a lot better. In the very least it would have been a nice change of paste. But then all of a sudden the male lead is supposed to be the spoiled, cool, "watches from a far and broods sexily"-rich guy. Boring. Seen it, many times and better executed.

And like others mentioned...so awkward! Even in the photoshoot. *mopes*

Goodness, Changmin has a nose almost as long as Pinocchio lol

I only watched Lee Yeon Hee in A Millionaire's First Love and gawd, she was just SO BORING! Is she like that in most (if not all ) her portrayals?

I tried watching it on my own, and plan to continue doing so in hopes of finding out why they went their separate ways, but as of ending of episode 3, I groaned at the fact that it ended with the usual "your girlfriend is my old ex" and "the girl I like is actually the ex of the guy dating MY ex". But I'll hang it there a little longer. I'm not chomping at the bit to watch it, but I'll get to it in due course. XD

boring! and awkard acting makes me cringe.enough said.
changmin , i will like u more if u stick to singing,pls

A month ago I just had my twins, being a mom is so exhausting task, but fortunately I had the support of my mom, well I tell you this, because I recently got addicted to the dramas Koreans (my mom and I) vi and secret garden and prosecutor princess , I see my princess, I look forward each revision they do, I look great and entertaining.
DH because I do not see kpop groups do not attract me and the story does not interest me, but reading the review that made PARADISE RANCH, I encourage him and love it, I turn to my mom to see, she also likes much, so I am very sad that this drama will not proceed and further, reading the previous comments, I'm no fan of the main guy, and I'm dying to your body and I'm drooling at the least, because I assure you my husband has an amazing body and only wish it on him lol, the protagonist, with his 1 º role in a drama does well, I like a lot and makes me laugh, the plot is somewhat confusing but I like the love-hate between the protagonists, which often is so hilarious, is a fresh and entertaining story, I'm in the ep. 4 and will continue to see
Finally, there will be another partner to continue with the drama, please

Thanks, I always check this blog but do not comment because English is not my language, but I do now poque this drama to my mom and me, we have fun and very relaxing

for the lack of anything to watch I've tried watching episode 1 as I've liked Joo Sang Wook in Giant but as he is'nt the lead in this one, this show didn't have that much pull, the main cast isn't that good in acting, and if only the main guy is cuter, but alas the only thing I can remember from watching this one is the pouting of the main guy nothing else! I'd better rewatched my SG than to spend another precious seconds watching this one!

that drama is pish...

Can someone (who isn't a TVXQ fan) give an honest opinion about the drama so far? I want to know if it's worth the time to start watching from episode 1 or just wait until the "big reveal", since I'm only interested in why the young couple got divorced.

The story is boring, changmin is awkward, yeon hee and ahjusshi are adorable..
But i still watched it cause of the prettiness of the cast and changmin finally have lots of airtime since 8 years of his debut.
I need something to entertain me while waiting for my exam result, so i'm still watching it. Call me shallow minded but, changmin is constantly half naked there and that's a good reason for me to continue lol \o/

/english is not my first language, srry

maybe i am also a jdrama addict and watches alot of that alongside kdramas, that i actually find changmin's acting ok for a rookie actor. he is actually alot better than many young or idol actors in jdramas so i was not put off at all by his acting. he is a little awkward in the first two episodes, but he got better after that.

i see changmin has potential especially since this is his first role. i saw him in athena and he has improved.

saying all that, this drama is a yawn because the script is its downfall. there is no emotional pull and not enough drama. there isn't even a bad guy for us to root for the good guys.

Really?! You get that many requests? I literally skimmed the entire first episode and found nothing compelling at all. And I was actually LOOKING. It actually sounded like a cute drama but there was no substance there.

Shouls see changmin in episode 16 -
athena the goddess of war - very stiff !!.

I saw some parts of tonight's episode and I'd say it has substance.

Definitely better than "Mary" which up to now, I've found a total disaster and a waste of talent.

Where can I find a recap in English?

Yes, I'll agree with some of the comments that Changmin's acting wasn't bad at all. In fact, he has surpassed expectations.

MIcky Yuchun is, of course, another story. For me, he doesn't even have to act. Even if he just stands there & stares at the screen, I will still be watching. :))

I am actually really enjoying this series and it is getting more interesting as it goes along. Changmin's acting is surprisingly good. To be honest this is the drama I look forward to the most each week - there is substance, intrigue, and depth to the story - however it is subtle.
