i really havent seen much of the drama because i also have important stuff to do. i give it a 5 because i really dont like choi ji woo even back in stairway to heaven and winter sonata. but i find the story good because the story line is intriguing

Horrible. Producers apparently think the audience will buy ANYTHING as long as there's a couple of famous names, but they're wrong.
The plot is completely ridiculous: at first the penniless heroine has to earn her living by playing violin in a restaurant, and on the next day - ta-da! - she decides she doesn't want to do it anymore and opens up her restaurant. No one is even surprised.
The relatives of the main character (the undercover cop, top secret and stuff) go searching for him in Tokyo without having a clue where he might be, and guess what? They find him on the very same day.
Etc., etc., etc.
And you CAN'T play the same music EVERY TIME the villain appears on screen! I mean, it's great when characters have their own musical themes, but it doesn't have to be played every time we see their face, especially during one single scene! It doesn't add to the suspense, it's just plain ridiculous.
What a waste of fine actors.

This one reminded me a bit of "Sora Kara Furu Ichioku no Hoshi / One Million Stars Falling from the Sky" in that the leading couple is absolutely great and the story is a real and serious story that goes along all the episodes. It is not just a repetition of a situation with funny moments at each episode, it unfolds little by little, with twists here and there.
The Korean actress Choi Ji Woo was very good in this difficult role, portraying a complex character without overacting.
I recommend it for everyone, as it has a lot of everything - romance, funny moments, suspense, great acting, and a great story.

I LOVED this drama, "past tense", because it was so breath taking at every step, the plot was not predictable, and all the action was AMAZING, I was so taken in the moment that I never wanted the drama to end.
Every actor was PERFECT, and Mokomichi was AWESOME! However, the ending totally bit that link of thrilling. Everything started to become more predictable after almost everyone started to die. I wanted all that drama to keep going, and I loved how the love connection between Nishijima and Chie didn't become so gushy, it was a great story! I just wish the ending was changed...
I definetly recommend anyone watch this, it's SO heart throbbing!!!

Big stars couldn't pull this one out of its dark world. Should have been called Rondo in D minor.

I read some comments that people didn't like the ending. They must have missed the very end when the show runs through the subtitles... because based on some comments the ending was pretty good!

The drama is worth to watch, Yutaka Takenouchi acted really good! If you like Korean drama, it will increase more the rating.

Great soundtrack , although got a bit fed up with all the twists and turn towards the middle of the series but last few episodes were great.
