Faith

I wasn't quite sure abut Faith at first. I didn't really like the female actress, but Lee Min Ho looked hot, so I gave it a chance. I didn't really like the clothing or makeup, and the special effects seemed really cheesy and crappy. The storyline was quite good, and it grabbed my attention as soon as I started watching it. I loved this story. Cute beginning, with not much romance, then comes a deep character development through situations, a bittersweet end, and a happily ever after epilogue. It dragged a little bit, and there were some flaws, but overall, it was addicting. I finished it in about 3 or 4 days.
