Park Min Mar 12 2023 8:02 pm This has the same writer who wrote "A Thousand Kisses" and "Mother's Garden" which both I gave 2/10 and this drama is no exception for being pure ass. I really hope this writer to never write anything again ever. This drama is a rage bait from start to finish and it won't give you anything you want even at the last scene. I highly advise you to ignore this one. It's not worth it even if you're curious.

Amie Apr 27 2022 5:50 pm Its really frustrating....i felt deceived.....although we want a happy ending for both of the lead character...they make 122 episodes for nothing ..... Saving someone and loving someone ...and mothers who disapproved the son for marrying the one he loves ...issues that are unresolves after all the sacrifices..... dont watched this drama if you will start to watched this..... this will only frustrate you

Joyce Mar 06 2021 3:23 am Great acting by Kang Eun Tak and Seo Do young,,, one of my fav drama

rt Sep 22 2020 4:07 pm I have to credit the writer with making a blatantly obvious story line interesting. People asked all the right questions and still ended up making emotional decisions. Without the high strung manipulating desperate stalker tattletale sister this drama would have been boring!! I was in love with both male leads who never got the candy. Love doesn't turn on and off like a faucet or get fostered by well intended pushy relatives who make you think you don't know what you need for yourself. Making choices for other people instead of yourself never ends well!!

rt Sep 18 2020 12:52 pm I am only @ ep 40 and am soooo frustrated with the female leads who have nooooo self esteem. They enter relationships for all the wrong reasons...throwing yourself at someone you know doesn't like you or trying to enter a family who demeans you is just crazy and will never work. And what about the men.. why do you want to hurt the people you love or let yourself let yourself be pushed into a relationship you don't want. Hard to watch and may make me ditch this drama!!!

ETulane Apr 30 2020 10:04 am Terrible plot - the main female character is such an idiot - a losing streak of choosing the wrong man. 102 episodes and the acting is so static - out of 10 stars this is a one.

osa Jul 04 2019 11:58 am i like the leads lee soyeon and kang euntak, their chemistry is great. the story is kinda annoying, it's always a rich guy who loves the poor nice girl but his family hates her, her family is nice while his side has crazy wife/mom/sister. the ending was a super let down, basically nothing happened, if they had a better ending i'd rate this drama higher.

Rance Dec 31 2018 3:44 pm Same writer as Thousand Kisses. Be prepared for the lead actress to be abused. Slaps , water to the face and hair pulled.

zombie Jul 23 2018 9:48 am finished epi 30 already hooked up have no idea how are those problems will be solved tottaly fell for the lead female just like the 2 male leads are madly in love with her hope it will end in harmony the songs from the radio are great and also the messages from the radio announcer so romantic the big problem is that the site im watching this from is down most of the time so is gonna take some time to finish this

Noriza Jan 17 2018 9:37 pm Really fall in love with the storyline. Love the wise grandfather, Jo Yoon Jae. I wish I have a mentor too.

Bonzo Nov 15 2016 9:25 pm I love to see Ha-Jung Yeon. She waa really tempting.

Rey May 16 2016 3:27 pm Instead of trying to take good care of her daughter, she decided to fool around with one guy after another. I feel sorry for her adopted mom. Cha seo-kyung is an evil woman in my book. Yet, there are 2 idiots who would fall head over heel for her. How pathetic this is. Very very depressing drama to say the least. Can't stand to always see the stupid face of cha seo-kyung everytime she went in her faking sad mode. Grandpa is trying to act noble but he never ever once would say no to free meals and gifts, etc...Can't wait for this stupid show to end. I must say i've come so close to breaking my tv. That's how much i hate this stupid story line. Beautiful you....my butt!

KD Lady May 14 2016 7:04 pm I want to know what the name of (and by who) the love song with the lyrics " my love is only you" is.

cyscribe May 07 2016 10:02 am Unfortunately, this story is bogging down. The characters are the same people episode after episode. Must they go on to be victimized by this outrageous woman? Is no one imaginative enough to counter this self centered female to keep her from ruining all their lives? Please put these talented actors in a more dynamic, vigorous narrative where we can enjoy a vicarious adventure.

Afenie May 06 2016 9:15 pm I'm glad that SK ended up whit JH. He's the type of man that only loves but one women is entire life. Whit SJ more eazy going personality he'll probably move on and find someone else. It would have been too sad for him to loose her twice to two different man when he sacrificed so much for her.

EnzoA May 06 2016 11:18 am 122 episodes of absolute nothing. The only valuable thing is Lee So Yeon's acting, she's able to deliver all the required emotions without even speaking. Obviously, that's not enough to save this worthless drama.

Felicia R Curtis May 05 2016 10:41 am I think the drama is good and it not jh fault that he is still married

dee May 05 2016 7:48 am For once in Korean Drama history let the female lead marry the second male lead. Why must it always be female lead with male lead? I do not like Jin Hyung and that family of his! It doesn't look like it will end with Ep 120.

Korean Fan Apr 28 2016 10:30 pm I would love to see Sung Joon really really get made at Sung Jeon and tell her off so she gets off his back. Actually, I would like to see him punch her out, but he is too much of a gentlemen to do that

Korean Fan Apr 27 2016 9:17 pm Isn't Eun Bi's dad compatible as a donor for Eun bi???? I am not that far in to the episodes yet, so I assume Seo-Kyung is not????

It is obvious that Sung Joon will most likely end up with Jung-Yeon as there doesn't appear to be any other girl on the horizon for him. Plus his wild uncle and his grandmother always liked Jung-Yeon. And the grandmother wants to see Sung Joon married. It doesn't matter if he doesn't love Jung-Yeon Or maybe he will eventually.

The best thing that could happen is Sung Joon end up finding someone else not connected to any of the current characters. That would be a big switch and the best thing that could happen on this show.

Seo-Kyung is rather bland most of the time. Jung-Yeon and her mother or overboard most of the time.

sim Apr 26 2016 11:29 am People may not agree but i love Jung Yeon if it wasn't for her character being smart and crazy this show wouldn't make it. Neither would I. The 3 main leads they don't think I don't know what to say. Why in most drama the female lead is always selfish and stupid? Ahhh!!!

dee Apr 24 2016 9:38 pm I knew the writer would make Jin Hyung the suitable donor. I was hoping that the writer would make Sung Joon the suitable donot for Eun Bi. If this is the case, I am certain that JH and SG will end up together. I prefer SG and SJ to end up together. That evil mother of JH should be strike by lightning instantly! She is soooo heartless. Writer, please make that evil woman end up requiring an organ transplant (but couldn't find one except from SG and she + the evil daughter can bed SG and family for help) so she can feel the desperation and pain that SG felt when Eun Bi needed the transplant.

BiGuel Apr 18 2016 4:37 am I'm just starting to watch this series and I'm starting to like it. There's a song that played in the last part of episode 5 that I want to know the title and the singer. Can somebody tell me pls. I tried to search on you tube but unfortunately I can't find it. Desperately need to know it.

Korean Fan Apr 16 2016 1:23 am Does anyone notice that Park Geun-Hyung (the grandfather) his hair keeps changing color?? Sometimes it is in his natural color - shading to gray and then it is colored in??

Does anyone think the grandfather and Sung Joon's grandmother will get married??

Sung Jung is cute - when he was getting engaged to Jung Yeon, he didn't even care what engagement ring she chose -- he said "he didn't know anything about them," but now he bought a pretty purse and necklace for Seo-Kyung. He has good taste. Don't know if they will get married though.

Jin-Hyung's idiot mother still had the nerve to criticze Seo-Kyung when she ran into her in the furniture store with Sung Joon's grandmother. I am sure the witch didn't tell Jin-Hyung she did the that.

Dee Apr 11 2016 9:34 pm What do the directors and producers take us as? In all the korean dramas you can see the flaws of the scenes. In the same scene you can see that it switches from day to night to day to night while they were talking - within that few minutes.

Also Eun-Bi in ep 45/46 is so big but in ep 48 she shrunk. If they need to change the babies, they should take into consideration the size of the baby.

Jung Yeon is smart and stupid at the same time. If she wants Sung Joon, she should be on Seo Kyung 's side so Sung Joon can give up on SK.SJ is so weak. Is he going to marry JY to make SK happy?

This is the 1st kdrama which I dislike the male and female lead. Jin Hyung is such a pain in the neck. I do not see any chemistry between the 2 leads. I don't see Jin Hyung caring for Eun-Bi like Sung Joon. I have a feeling JH is just trying hard to get SK because she left him for another man 2 yrs ago. I don't feel that JH really love SK, he just want her for himself. SJ really love and care for SK.

If the writer makes JH and SK end up together I am really disappointed!

dani Apr 11 2016 5:20 am Seo Kyung is not fit to be a mother. All she thinks about is falling in love with Jin Hyung leaving Eun-bi for the whole day without even thinking if anyone is at home to feed her or change her diapers, etc... She takes her family for granted. She says she wants to follow her heart and do as she like but she didn't think that she did that once and she ended up divorced with a baby. She's going to make another stupid mistake. Her mother is very right when she asks SK if JH's family will accept her and her baby. She has to wake up to reality.

Disappointed Apr 10 2016 9:30 pm Jin Hyung and Seo Kyung are two stupid people. Don't both of them realize they are committing adultery? I don't pity SK when she gets bashed up by Soo Jin as she deserves it. How can JH be so irresponsible and drag SK into his hell of a life knowing that he's still a married man. I can't describe SK...she's a disappointment as a daughter and as a mother of Eun-bi.

dani Apr 10 2016 8:59 pm Dislike Jin Hyung's attitude. Why is Seo Kyung letting him control her? They way he asks her to meet him is so egoistic and that SK acts like a slave and drops everything (not even thinking of her baby) and runs to him. SJ is a better person and I hope the writer will make them end up together even though I don't see any chemistry between SJ & SG. With 17 episodes left, I am pretty sure the writer will find ways to let JH and SG end up together (looking at the poster above).

Just trying to stay until ep 120. Apr 07 2016 8:54 pm To many repeated scenes. I want to say I know how this is going to end. Different drama, same storyline. Please let the second leed get the girl. :/

Korean Fan Apr 06 2016 1:46 am The story is all repetitive with the wicked Jung-Yeon once again doing what she did the first time around trying to marry Sung Joon. Hope Sung Joon never marries her. She doesn't understand the word "NO."

Jamse Mar 24 2016 11:15 pm Trying to hang in with this drama even though it's on the boring side a bit, but now with show after show of Moon Hye-Kyung's sing song screeching one note performance I don't know if I can. She's played the same type of role a dozen times, this one is by far the most annoying.

Korean Fan Mar 18 2016 9:54 pm Seo-Dong hit the nail on the head when she met Seo-Dong and her mother for the first time family dinner before the wedding when she said "they were mean and she would not like to spend a lot of time with them." They both are witches. She was spot on. She is correct that Jin-Hyung and his father are both nice people.

Seo-Kyung's real mother is a piece of work. After what she did to her best friend, seducing her friend's husband, she has the nerve to come back and force her way into their house and stay with them. Gutsy lady.

hanim Mar 15 2016 6:49 am i wish sung jung marryseo kyung

Korean Fan Mar 08 2016 10:36 pm Why is Sung-Joon marrying Jung-Yeon???? Too make his grandmother happy because she wants him to get married??? Or is he getting married so Seo-Kyung can get married???? It appears Sung-Joon is only getting married to make his grandmother and Seo-Kyung happy. Stupid. He lets everyone run his life.

Star Wars Fan Feb 21 2016 3:26 am @Georgie --- I agree with you with regard to the rude, intrusive, pushy Jung-Yeon ending up with the stupid big mouth Uncle. I can't stand him. He likes Jung-Yeo so much why doesn't he ask her out instead of pushing her on Sung Joon. Sung Joon has told the grandmother several times that he doesn't care for her that much, but you can see the g-mother is pushing him towards her in a low key manner. And the idiot Uncle knows that Sung Joon is not interested in her, but he just keeps pushing her with S-J.

I like Sung Joon but he is too passive and doesn't speak his mind and he gets pushed around by his uncle and at time by his grandmother. He is my favorite and I also like Cha Tae-Woo. His is so cute and full of life.

Georgie Feb 19 2016 9:04 pm Best ending would be Sung Joon marrying Seo Kyung and the mother of Seo Kyung get back together with the father, and the shrill mother and snob unpleasant sister are left with no one..., maybe the snotty sister could end-up with the idiot uncle...

Jamse Feb 15 2016 10:10 pm Fallen woman heroine, check. Mama's boy suitor, check. Shrill screaming rich mother to mama's boy suitor, check. Snob unpleasant sister to mama's boy, check. Psycho ex for mama's boy, check. Adorable innocent baby, check. Typical drama, check. Predictable, but the acting is good.

Angela boffardi Jan 29 2016 11:11 am Loved this drama.the acting was so genuine. Loved the baby the most so adorable with that mop of hair and ribbon. Excellent work.

Star Wars Fan Jan 25 2016 3:33 pm I think Jin-Hyung was selfish to a point when he walked out of his parents house and left Soo-Jin there for his parents to deal with her. Why should his parents have to put up with her, he married her not his parents. Why did he marry her in the first place? Was it a rebound marriage because Seo-Kyung up and left her job with him and married someone else????

Star Wars Fan Jan 25 2016 1:56 am I could not believe that Jin Hyung could not go out and buy himself a bottle of water and some food from a restaurant or somewhere when he moved into his apartment!!!! He just sat in his apartment all day long waiting for someone to come and bring him sheets, liquid, food etc. Geez....

From what I have seen in these dramas and the reality Korean shows, most of the men are able to cook food and furnish their own apartments, houses, etc.

Jin Hyung only has a one track mind - get his hands on Seo-Kyung. She spends more time with him than with her baby. The only time she is with her baby is at night when the baby is sleeping and she is writing her stories for Jin Hyung. I don't know how she can just go out in a nano second every time Jin Hyung calls her and doesn't think about who is feeding the baby, changing the baby diapers or what???

Sung-Joon's freaky idiot of an uncle needs to go back where he came from if he is so BORED. I can't stand him. Sung-Joon needs to get some back bone and stand up for himself instead of letting the uncle make a fool out of him using his money to buy Jung-Yeon clothes and pretend Sun-Joon wanted her to have it. Sung-Joon just stands there and keeps his mouth shut. I guess it will all wash out in the end anyway.

lm Jan 20 2016 2:54 am why i wish cha seo kyung would end up with sung joon in the end. am i the only one who think this way?

star Jan 17 2016 12:45 pm One of my favorite dramas ...

star Jan 13 2016 1:09 pm I agree with you ( Sola ) It is a good drama . has a strong storylines Especially the story of the lead couple ( Cha Seo-Kyung & Ha Jin-Hyung ) Hope their love is strong enough to overcome the obstacle that they are facing now . I believe in them . Actor ( Kang Eun Tag ) he is doing a great job portraying his character . I like him very much . He is one of my favorite korean actors .

sola Jan 13 2016 10:11 am At the moment there are 43 episodes translated :)

I did not know that there would be up to 120 episodes cause the website I watch it on updates like 10 episodes at a time whenever they can which is quick.

I really do like the drama its very different from any other Korean drama I have seen previously. I highly recommend it if you have the time.

star Jan 11 2016 9:36 am It looks like a good drama ...I started to watch it two weeks ago and until now it is very good storylines . Both the lead couple are doing a great job portraying their rules ... Wish to continue like this . waiting for the rest episodes with English subtitles . Until now only 32 episodes translated .

arizona girl Dec 31 2015 1:56 am Right now there is 120 episodes....ifall goes well with the story line.

Jamie Dec 24 2015 2:44 pm Anyone know how many episodes ???

arizonagirl Dec 23 2015 4:28 pm Great looking guys in this drama --- Kang Eun Jak, Seo Do-Young; Gong Myung; Yeo Ui-Joo. I saw Gong Myung for the first time in Hwajung - he is so cute.

I only saw one episode.

andy Dec 21 2015 2:58 am i love this drama. it's sweet and cute with just the right amount of romance to keep me hooked. it's a great daily family drama but only 10 episodes have been uploaded and i've heard that 15 episodes have been broadcasted already. i'm waiting for the updates of this drama! the leads are so adorable and the second male lead is very sweet too. i heard there are 120 episodes, if so i'm gonna enjoy it! so far, so good. i recommend.

City77 Dec 18 2015 8:43 am Have watch several episodes and it is quite good.
