REVIEW:
Horrifyingly addicting.  That's really all I can say to describe this drama.  Unlike other dramas where you root for the main character, all I could do was watch in horror.  As the series continued, I felt more and more afraid for her.  I also felt more and more sad that the main character kept making excuses for everything that she did.  However, I could not help but watch.  Even though it was hard, I kept wanting to watch more.

"Miss Ripley is based on the real life case of Shin Jung Ah, a university professor and art curator at Dongguk University who was discovered to have forged her creditials in order to get hired, with the help of her boyfriend (then presidential secretary) Byun Yang Kyoon, and embezzled funds from the art gallery's corporate sponsorship." -- Dramabeans

9 End 2 Outs

Rating: *****

Genre: Romance, Comedy
Episodes: 16
Cast: Hwang Ji Hyun, Lee Jung Jin, Lee Sang Woo, Lee Tae Sung, Soo Ae

"The drama is about love of singles in their 30s. Hong Nan Hee is an ordinary worker at a publishing firm, she's a girl who always falls in and out of love since she was young until one day when she meets an old classmate, Byun Hyung Tae, who is a team leader of an advertising company again. Hyung Tae may seem to be a good catch in the eyes of many women but he's only a cowardly boy to Nan Hee whom he has grown up with. '9 End 2 Outs' is using the baseball theme to compare to the fates and lives of the people in love. "

I'll be honest here. I passed up this drama so many times I can't even count it. Many people said it was good, but I just kind of walked away from it. However, I was really bored lately so I ended up watching it. Let me just say that it was worth it. Good acting, dialogue, and production. Not only that, I just loved the story. It was very cute and it's definitely a drama you should check out.
