Park Min Dec 11 2022 7:34 pm This drama got one of the worst 1st episodes. I really didn't like the cast's performance. Extremely superficial and full of amateurs. It's impressive how 99% of similar drama templates turn any setting into a business setting regardless of whatever the beginning was, and this drama is no exception. You would think the setting would be in this "school" since the drama advertised FL as a teacher at a traditional Korean school and also the poster/synopsis seems like it but no! After few episodes, everything become about business with the usual cringe shenanigans in every similar setting where they fight/sabotage/expose each other till the end. The "twin" was seriously cringe, unbearable! How many were killed? Simply, there wasn't enough justice anyway. Don't watch!

Sandi Aug 18 2020 11:50 pm Awful actors, awful drama???

JAC Sep 08 2017 6:48 am This drama is not realistic evil wife and husband are terrible actors. Where is the story going down hill

JAC Aug 30 2017 7:00 pm Wow the Snake couple is killing half the cast

   They deserve one another psychotic evil witch and snakes

JAC Aug 22 2017 7:18 pm Snake eyes or the husband pushed her down the stairs

Moonstar Aug 14 2017 1:55 am Has any one seen Han Soo-Yeon in any other drama?? I feel she is a lousy actress in this show but since I have not seen her in any other drama, I can't compare if she is better in other dramas.

How stupid is this ???? Bok-Hee is in the hospital in a coma and idiot Se-Hee is looking in her hand for the missing piece of her bracelet!!!! What is wrong with the writer??? How dumb is the writer and Se-Hee. If I was Soo-Yeon I would have told the writer to leave that out. Geez...

Too bad Se-Hee didn't get run over by a car when she was looking for the missing charm from her bracelet.

I like that guy "Bang" whatever his name is keeps showing up to aggravate Se-Hee, but he keeps saving her rear end.

JAC Aug 10 2017 10:52 pm Wait just a minute today the old lady was eating food in a hospital. She didn't die?

Thank goodness...too much killing in this drama.

JAC Aug 08 2017 8:27 pm Now we know what happened to the old woman. Cold blooded snake laughs that she died in the fire.

Why is snake husband crying his wife cause the woman to die. First it's the grandfather, little girl, and next grandmother. Who's next on the cold snake list to kill?

This character is a lunatic and killer

JAC Aug 06 2017 8:49 pm When will Oh Soon Nam marry the tall rich guy Kang Doo Mool? They will have beautiful twin.

  That would kill her ex and his snake wife.

What happened to the old lady?

David Aug 06 2017 1:21 am What happened to Kim Seung-Jae?? Did he ride off into the sunset after his wedding to Se-Hee didn't happen???

@Jac --- cute little Joon-Young agrees with you that Se-Hee is "A Snake." I am only at Ep. 42.

@Cooper ---

I agree w/you that Bok Hee should have signed the property over to Soon Nam and kick the "-itch - Hwa-Ran: out. Hwa-Ran told Bok Hee that "no one is a member of her family," so Bok-Hee should tell her to get out of the house and close down the restaurant. I certainly would have gotten rid of the "-itch" as soon as her Yoo-Min wanted a divorce from Soon Nam and to top it off, take away Joon-Young. Like who was going to take care of the little girl when both he and the other "-itch." work all day??? How stupid is this .

JAC Aug 03 2017 6:55 pm Finally the snake witch is in jail. Put her snake loser husband in there with her.

Still waiting for Snake baby.

Cooper Aug 03 2017 2:50 am See Hee dresses like a hooker. Who wears those ugly outfits to an office??? Plus the overdone makeup, weird facial expressions and anorexic shape.

Soon Nam should have divorced Yoo-Min as soon as she found out he had another chick, she would have then been able to keep Joon-Young. She was trying to save the family, but only made everything worse.

I could never figure out why Bok Hee didn't kick out Hwa Ran. BH was stupid as she listened to everything HR said and was continually used by her. BH should have signed the property over to Soon Nam and got rid of Hwa Ran. Hwa Ran is a lier, user and only loves money.

I thought once Sun-Joo would find out Soon Nam and Ul-Gil were her children, Hwa Ran's money would run out. But if Ul-Gil is involved with Yoo-Na, Hwa Ran would still have some access to money through her daughter. Hope to see HR and Se-Hee living on the streets.

JAC Jul 13 2017 6:19 pm Agreed, but same goes for the loser ex-snake.

 Can not stand the guy or snake witch.

Madeleine Dun Jul 12 2017 2:05 pm I have liked this daily from the beginning but wish Soon Nam would be on the winning side some more. Tired of seeing snake witch buying and lying her way out of everything.

JAC Jul 07 2017 9:34 pm Wow! The lead actress changed from plain teacher to business woman looks 10x better than the snake witch.

Maybe this drama will change for the better.

Sunbeam Jul 07 2017 3:01 am I hope that the writers don't make Kang Woon-Kil end up with ditz Cha Yoo-Na!!!! When they had the encounter over the food at Cha Man-Pyung's wake that was the first thing that came into my head. Now the stupid fake ditz applies for a secretarial position at Woon-Kil's company. She is a phony like her disgusting mother.

In Ep 23 when Doo Mool got sick after his son Se Jong got bullied and ended up in the hospital, DM went to bed with his white shirt and tie on. When Soon Nam was making soup for him and wiping his face in his bedroom with a wet cloth, did she change him into the blue "T" shirt???? I wouldn't think she would do that.

Soon Nam needs to get rid of the mother-in-law and the ditz daughter. I can't wait till all the jazz comes out at the end of the show who is funding the restaurant at the school, and what Bong Chul did to Soon Nam's father and Yoo-Min's father. I can't believe that Choi Bok-Hee would allow Mo Hwa Ran to even do that. How stupid is all of this?????

Se-Jong has a neat "car bed."

JAC Jul 04 2017 8:39 pm Rating are going downhil.

Viewers want to see a change in the storyline because it is boring.

Evil witch and snake have taken over the school.

How pathetic is this drama?

sunlover Jul 03 2017 2:55 am Re: The fliers that Doo-Mool was trying to have passed out at the Hwang company if any one has seen Se-Hee, couldn't the guy just pass them out i front of the building to people?? I can see he could not do that within the company, but outside of the company should not be a problem I believe.

I am at a loss as to why Yong Sun-Joo would marry that creep Bong Chul????? I am waiting to see if the story shows that some where along the line. She has not idea what he has done to her family and is doing behind her back.

His daughter Se-Hee is a low class scab. How could she buy something for Yoo-Min's daughter for her birthday and he, like an A-- even takes it and smiles at her. I thought he loved his daughter so much. What a fool.

Sunbeam Jul 02 2017 3:59 am What does Cha Yoo-Na do??? Sit around all day and live on her brother?? Or what???

I hope that Kang Woon-Kil does not hire her to work for him as his secretary???!! When Doo- Mool told Woon-Kil "he needed a secretary," and WK said "he would take care of it," I thought --- or no --- hope my mind is not correct. But usually these dramas usually have everyone -- family --- connected to one or the other. What Woon-Kil does not need in his life is a person who likes a guy with money and even worse Mo Hwa-Ran. Hwa-Ran will drain him dry. She is sly as a fox and then some and greedy for money.

And to top that off, Woon-Kil would also be heir to the Hwang Company. At least I think Woon-Kil is Mun Ho.

I can't believe that these writers will now let Yong Sun-Joo lose her vision. Didn't she have enough bad things go wrong in her life. And low class good for nothing Bong-Chul has her every move followed. I wish she would find out about that. Despicable creep.

I hope the writers don't wait for the truth to come out until the last few episodes.

David Jun 30 2017 3:38 am Correction to my previous post ----

I meant to say it will take to 118 episodes for the truth to be found out about the fire and Bong Chul. You know how the writers are, they squeeze every ounce of blood out of the good people while the evil people keep staying on top.

Of course, if it comes out sooner that Soon Nam is President Song's real daughter, then Bong Chul will try to kill her too.

David Jun 30 2017 2:54 am So Kang Woon-Kil is Kang Ul-Gil and Kang Doo-Mool is the young boy who found Mun Ho in the mountains.

Kang Woon-Kil is Mun Ho, Soon Nam's brother I believe.

Wonder how those black ledger books got in the school yard's well??? How many of those books are there. Cha Man-Pyung doesn't feel his brother put them there. Unless he put them there for safe keeping??? If not, wonder who did?

Now that idiot Yoo-Min took the evidence of the black books and Man-Pyung had a brain hemmorage, this will take to Ep 18 or 19 for the truth to come out. Geez......

Sunbeam Jun 29 2017 2:07 am So I am confused????

Did not Detective Cha Joo-Pyung in Ep 1 and 2 have the black books with all the --- was it embezzlement info on construction sight?????? Didn't Bong Chul's Secretary Park get rid of both Joo-Pyung and Cha Ji Ho's cars??? Did they take those books out of the car??? Or did they not know the detective had them???

Anyway, how did School Master Cha Man-Pyung have them in a later episode??? It appears they are the same 2 books!!! He gave them to smuck Yoo-Min when he was decided to give up his family for greener pastures and Man-Pyung passed out as smuck would not listen to him that the info in those books would clear his father. What a jerk to say the least. I can't wait till he finds out evil witch Se-Hee is not the true heir to the company, but Soon Nam. The joke is on him the idiot. Plus his precious conniving Se-Hee was either married or just dated Doo-Mool and had a child with him, who happens to be sitting right in his own back yard. How funny is all this?

Similar theme to Blow Breeze. Girl marries grandson from a rich family believing in time he will inherit the money, but it didn't work out that way, as the REAL blood granddaughter eventually was found and the pretender grand daughter was caught and kicked out. Loved it.

This is going to be a long show, but I can't wait until President Yong Sun-Joo finds out that creep she married is the person who killed her loving husband Ji-Ho. What the heck did she marry the a-hole for anyway???? Plus she adopted the witch, his real daughter.

And goofy Secretary Park is informing Bong Chul on everything she does, etc.

I like Kang Woon-Ki, he has a nice personality.

JAC Jun 28 2017 9:39 pm Let the wedding begin for the two snakes Cha Yoo-Min and Hwang Se-Hee, they can have a baby snake.

    Two losers!

JAC Jun 23 2017 7:04 am Cha Yoo-Min character is unrealistic,unmanly, greedy, and he told his ex wife that he was sick of her.

    How pathetic can a human be?

This character deserves to be with the evil snake witch.

David Jun 22 2017 1:19 am @Jac --

I am not sure if Hwa-Ran the school fire as I could not tell if it was a woman or man that ran into the area where the fire started. Also I heard a voice - sounded like a woman's voice. Maybe the person ran into something or?? Not sure why the person made the sound. Also Hwa-Ran got hurt around her rib area, but when the daughter asked what was wrong, she said nothing. But as I said, you know how these writers scheme things and then it is a completely different story when the truth comes out. Didn't Bong Chul mention something to Hwa-Ran about doing something to get rid of the school or something to that effect I believe.

I am only assuming Soon Nam being the daughter of Sun Joo, should would be able to have some of the company funds available to her or inherit the company. But did Sun Joo marry Bong Chul? If that is the case, he would fight Sun Joo and Soon Nam as his intent is to get the company back in his hands 100%. He said that in the first episode when he was at Sun Joo and Ji Ho's house.

As I said this is only my thinking, but one never knows with these dramas or what direction the writer is going to go, as it seems the majority of these shows, it is the evil people who kept getting ahead of the game.

As I have only seen 11 episodes, I don't know how Bong Chul's father, I believe, lost the company. I will find that out as I get further into the show.

Usually with these dramas everything eventually comes out in the wash at the end of the show.

JAC Jun 21 2017 6:45 am Wow! You are good in drama story-line. Right now this drama is boring because of the pathetic characters that loser husband, evil witch, and greedy mother.

I will watch the drama if what you predict is the story. It would be great to see the pathetic ex husband, evil witch, and mother go down together.

Let's see if your predictions come true.

David Jun 21 2017 1:01 am Mo Hwa-Ran will do what ever she has to to get her hands on money. She owes the loan sharks. It will be the end of her when she finds out that the man paying her, Bong-Chul, is the man that set up her husband, the police man.

I am only at Ep 10, buy it appears that Hwa-Ran set the fire at the school to collect the rest of the money Bong-Chul promised her. But I could be deceived at this point as I know how these writers operate.

In Ep 10, when the loan sharks kidnapped Hwa-Ran's daughter and she brought the money to them to have her released, her idiot daughter didn't even ask her where she got that money!! The daughter must know that Haw-Ran does not have the type of money.

Also, if I understand correctly, Oh Soon Nam is the real daughter of Yong Sun Joo. So eventually down the road when everything gets straightened out and Soon Nam finds out who she is she will then be eligible to work in the company. And possibly inherit the company. There fore her stupid loser husband who is with wicked Se-Hee will be shocked that he hooked up with the wrong chick. If this is how the story eventually goes, it is the same story line as Golden Pouch. The witch pushed herself on a son of a rich family, but he turned out to not the actual son, but the previous guy she was dating was the Real son.

JAC Jun 20 2017 6:58 am The acting performance by Jang Seung-Jo and Han Soo-Yeon is unrealistic. Yes, the protagonist father is evil as well.

   Let's not forget the evil mother Mo Hwa-Ran. There are so, many bad characters in the drama.

    Rating are going down because of the story-line where two evils try to destroy a peaceful school for children.

sunlover Jun 19 2017 3:55 am Hwang Bong-Chul is no saint either. This is going to be a long drama until the truth comes out.

JAC Jun 18 2017 9:48 pm Ep 40 the Tall witch killed the little girl.

   The storyline of this drama is heartless and disgusting Cha Yoo-Min and Hwang Se-Hee are evil to the core.

   Wow how pathetic can greedy people be to kill a child.

sunlover Jun 14 2017 6:01 am Ep 6 ---- If rich witch Se-Hee supposedly was drunk???? which I believe she wasn't, she sure sobered up fast when idiot Yoo Min dropped her off at her house and when she was fighting with her father. Yoo Min is so stupid. Men always fall for evil rich woman.

Is this going to be similar to Stormy Woman? Rich evil witch steals married man and everything goes downhill from there.

I see Kim Hyung-Min is in this show. I haven't seen him since Pretty Mom, Pretty Woman.

Shari Jun 09 2017 3:56 am Geum Bo-Ra === The wicked mother from Blow Breeze.

Madeleine May 10 2017 4:46 pm @Grace, The story is also about a traditional etiquette school that teaches Chinese classics and traditional culture. The children dress like joseon school kids. And the teachers do too. Also leading lady teacher wears traditional clothes often.

Grace Apr 27 2017 9:20 am So, the era is modern or old era??? Why the teaser make them look like from old era??? Sam also there!! xD

Madeleine Apr 26 2017 8:39 pm This show has an old cast.
