Comments

Beta Nim Feb 09 2026 9:43 pm The plot is unique, compared to its predecessors, involving the mother using the female protagonist to pose as her biological daughter. I love everyone's acting, yes - including the young siblings. I mean you got "My Golden Life" mothers, Ji Su-Won returning back to her antagonist era, and the kid Eun-Cheong is able to perform his role very well. <3 My only disappointment is how the villainess was punished, I expected some kind of extension of about 2-3 more episodes just to give it some more build up. 7.9/10.

Zeila Aug 13 2025 11:11 pm Cuihua and Jamse ... who do you think pays for the production of these shows? You people that whine about "product promotion" (as if it's not in every show on the planet), would you rather have to watch ads every 5 minutes? Quadruple subscription prices? I've actually found a few very nice products from Kdramas.

begging for Instagram Jul 28 2025 5:29 pm i need koo ji-seok's secretary name and ig

Aim May 05 2025 1:53 pm Really loved this drama, the storyline was refreshing and very entertaining and it also ended in a way that made me laugh, what a series!

Jamse Apr 29 2025 5:09 pm Even though I don't think Se-Young should have been redeemed, they handled it well. I know Ha Na explained why she stopped playing piano, but it would have been fun to see a piano rematch between her and Se-Young, but that plot point was left in their high-school days. Overall a very good drama.

Madeleine Apr 25 2025 7:15 pm I loved this series. Never a dull moment. The characters were great, kept true to themselves throughout. The actors are all fabulous. The ending was great.

Madeleine Apr 25 2025 7:13 pm I loved this series. The characters were great, and stayed to true to themselves throughout. Excellent ending. Addictive and fun to watch.

Kimberly Apr 24 2025 10:57 pm I don't like to watch episode 100 since se young mom ruined everything and I hope that episode 101 might have a fun episode

Suma Apr 21 2025 3:12 pm Se-Young should not get a redemption

Kay Nuuna Apr 18 2025 5:31 am Kay No Nuuna~ Haha ok take your 'too stiff' Jin Goo..I like Ji seok @ more ;))

Rina Apr 17 2025 6:54 am the show make a laughing stock of Korea legal system where you can easily bribed a judge to grant you custody even though you are not related to the child and the grandparents are still alive! And then the villain could obtained the house through a ‘gift transfer’ when the legal owner is in a coma!!!! Obviously the written thinks we viewers are all stupid to belief such storyline….

Elle Apr 16 2025 10:19 am SPOILERS AHEAD

I’m usually not overly critical online, but I can’t recommend Cinderella Game—though I’ll admit, it’s weirdly addictive. The plot drags you in until you suddenly realize ("Wait, I’m already on Episode 30?!") and traps you in sunk-cost fallacy hell. I had high hopes given the premise, but the writing is a mess, and so are the characters. The revenge arc? (Yes, that’s sarcasm.) It’s as flimsy as the protagonists—except for the villains, who are cartoonishly evil. Take Se-Young: she conspires with her mom to keep her aunt in a coma, tries to kidnap her cousin (EC), embezzles from the company, and lies about EC’s disappearance… yet still gets a redemption arc. What?

I love family dramas, which is why I gave this a shot. But after enduring endless episodes of the FL being mistreated, her “empowerment” lasts maybe two episodes. Sure, she rocked the bob and red suit, but nothing changed long-term. She falls for the man who betrayed her and keeps tolerating people who treat her like garbage. (Guess we’re calling that ‘resilience’ now?) And if she can cozy up to the guy who lied about her birth mother, she might as well have forgiven the Chairwoman too. Honestly, Ha-Na should’ve just accepted the CW’s offer and stayed her daughter, but the writer clearly wasn’t interested in being creative.

Sidenote: The scene with Se-Young sobbing in her wedding dress was visually stunning.

The siblings are reduced to clownish sidekicks, and the eldest—the one who started this "revenge"—still pines after Se-Young, a criminal now framed as a victim.

This drama (still unfinished) feels like an insult to viewers. Plot points and dialogue vanish without explanation, as if the writers gave themselves amnesia worse than the Chairwoman’s.

And Jin-Koo? He’s not a character—he’s a cardboard cutout. Zero emotional depth, just drifting around like background decor.

At this point, I’m only watching to see how this trainwreck ends. I’ve suffered too much to quit now. It’s easily one of the worst-written family dramas I’ve seen—and I’m still juggling My Merry Marriage and Desperate Mrs. Seon Ju, which only highlights how Cinderella Game fails at basics. Once I’m done, I’m off family K-dramas for a while.

Final verdict: If you enjoy shows where villains win effortlessly while “heroes” yell, brood, and achieve nothing… congratulations, this dumpster fire is for you.

Cuihua Apr 14 2025 9:03 pm It is really weird to have the main lead characters selling shampoo instead of acting their parts. This is totally a shampoo ad …..in this latest drama scene. Too obvious…….not good

Jamse Apr 14 2025 2:46 pm SPOILERS

Are they Really going to try to rehabilitate the sociopathic SeYoung character? She happily went along with all of her mother’s very open crimes, laughed at the misfortune of others, and almost moaned with pleasure when she found out the YuJin character had died, and also after realizing that she could frame her comatose aunt for her embezzlement. And now finding out her mother kept a few things from her is going to make her realize the error of her ways? Give me a break.

Also, that shampoo company must have paid a fortune for product placement.

Amy Apr 14 2025 7:52 am The Gu siblings are dumb and annoying as hell, Jiseok is my favorite character and actor as well

Kay No Nuuna Apr 12 2025 7:04 am ~ Kay Nuuna,

That’s what I am doing. Sharing my opinion!! Too stiff??

Kay No Nuuna Apr 10 2025 8:51 pm I can’t stand Kay Nuuna’s comment…. too stiff!

Kay Nuuna Apr 10 2025 3:27 pm I can't stand Jin Goo's acting..too stiff!

Kj Apr 10 2025 3:24 pm kdramas love to use amnesia as a plot point arghh

Jamse Apr 07 2025 2:19 pm “Why didn’t you tell me that you delivered pizza to the chairwoman! Now you’re my enemy! That’s about the gist of Je Seok’s judgement. Did he honestly think he would have gotten an iota of revenge if it wasn’t for Seong-Ho? The Goos are getting on my nerves more and more.

Thea Apr 05 2025 1:42 pm I totally agree with the other viewers, those Go siblings are beyond ridicules, they are just plain stupid and greedy and why would they take their revenge out on a innocent child who had nothing to do with their parents dying. That's why I say revenge is fruitless, once everything is over it will not change anything and a lot of people would have gotten hurt and still they left empty

Kat Apr 02 2025 1:07 pm The younger Goo siblings are truly getting on my last nerve now… they were happy to take the enemy’s money when it suited them, when they only thought Hana was the chairwoman’s victim and now they’re taking it out on a kid when they find out how deep this ill fated relationship goes. I’m honestly struggling to get through their scenes.

Jamse Apr 01 2025 10:38 pm The younger Goo siblings always walked the line between being funny and obnoxious. Now they’ve crossed to being strictly obnoxious.

Raven Mar 31 2025 2:44 pm Danny is played but actor Kim Dae-hyeon

Finding Oppas Mar 31 2025 11:18 am I search so many korean casts websites i can't find The Name of Go Ji-seok's secretary ,??

Beta Nim Mar 24 2025 11:32 pm I'm honestly very glad that this daily drama is starting to gain traction considering that it finally surpassed the 10.0% viewership mark. I'm glad!!! And hopefully Han Groo gets more acting projects after this. She truly deserves this moment!

Spoiler alert Mar 20 2025 8:53 am aigoo! episode 75 is freaking way too suspenseful i'm soooo excited for the next episode... In episode 75 go hana started her scheme and the big day is se-young wedding day. But before that se young mother started to feel hana if she know something about the fake pregnancy so she contacted the former detective to installed a bug at hana's phone little did she know that hana has two phones and knows exactly what se young mother's scheme so hana played along.. fast forward! on se young wedding hana give se young a boquet of flowers and contacted se young groom and drop the bomb! at first jin koo never believe what hana told him because he believes that se young is pregnant due to ultra sound he hears the babby's heart beat But hana dialed her phone and she let the doctor come inside and told jin koo about those lies.... se young was so happy taking pictures with the guest. little by little they're waiting the groom to arrive and the jinkoo mother started to call her son and ask him where he is and jinkoo told her that se young is not pregnant and the lights turn off after hearing this from her son jinkoo mother slap se young mom ....

then go hana went to se young bridal room where she started to tell se young that the weddding is off and jinkoo knows exactly what she did.... it was then at that perfect moment se young get mad and tried to hurt hana but hanna escape and turn se young kneeling position and hana started to step se young wedding gown ahahahahahaha...

Sushi87 Mar 18 2025 1:50 pm For character development of Hana, the heavy eyeliner is key :)

Valerie Mar 18 2025 1:19 pm Yawn! Here we go, when the show should be winding down, episodes start coming out sporadically. Writers realize they have written themselves into a corner with too many implausible situations. Now they have to hurry up and try to come up with a satisfying ending. Kim Hye-Ok has been one of my favorite actresses from way back. She is the only character in this show who is not a caricature.

Amber Mar 18 2025 4:34 am After watching episode 72, really do not know how would the story be ending. Tired of watching how evil of Shin Yeo Jin, mother Choi Myeong-Ji and daughter Yoon Se Young.

Jamse Mar 12 2025 1:10 pm Revenge or not, to turn Hana into someone as unlikable as Ji Seok is a mistake. Hopefully she won’t be like this for too long.

Rina Mar 10 2025 7:22 am For someone who is an orphan and was adopted, it doesn’t make sense that she don’t want to be a Cinderella and it’s also for her best friend’s son to be with her real grandmother! The storyline of her adopted brother and Se Yoong is so off. And how can she asked Jin Goo to marry Se Yoong.

Quantumnurse Mar 07 2025 8:43 am I watch the show "Cinderella Game" with mixed feelings. I like the gutsy Goo Ha Na, but I am totally annoyed when she became so clueless believing Hwang Jin Goo that her biological mother was looking for her. I hope the story does not make Ha Na "dating" ill-tempered Jin Goo that always resort to violence (whenever he is facing Goo Ji Seok). Although, I really like his mother, Sim Bang-Wool, she has common sense. We are nearing episode 70, (please) it is about time the story reveals the evil mother Choi Myeong-Ji and daughter Yoon Se Young past wicked deed. Let Ha Na live happily with her adopted son Lee Eun-Chong and her Goo family. My two cents.

Remmy52 Mar 05 2025 11:37 am I so cannot stand se young and her mother. Why can't they crash and burn now instead of the last two episodes where they will be forgiven? Same old regurgitated drama. Thought maybe this would be different, but Go Hana is not the brightest either. Poor Eun Chong is the only one suffering. CEO Shim selfish and only concerned about her feelings. She will probably walk in the ocean once everything is revealed. The husband moving real slow at uncovering the truth. And lastly, why are there two different artists singing the OST on various days?

Jamse Feb 27 2025 1:01 pm SPOILERS

Evil cousin: “We’ll send the flyer anonymously so that Ha Na will find out she’s a fake, and not suspect us.” Evil cousin sociopathic daughter Se-Young to Ha Na, after the flyer was received; “ Bwa hah hah, you’re a fake, I knew all along.”

The Se-Young character is not the sharpest tool in the shed.

Mitty Feb 26 2025 7:41 am How is it that everyone easily outs together the puzzles except when it comes to soyeong and her witchy mother, that’s the most obvious puzzle to solve

Mitty Feb 26 2025 7:38 am Tired of the usual k drama revenge storyline,I’m a fool for hoping this was going to be any different

Susa Feb 25 2025 5:48 pm Show seems to be dragging out the story for more money? Why would the chairwoman Not suspect the 2 women who lives off of her when her own daughter went missing? People who will gain the most if her daughter is dead is the clue!? Those 2 women were even bold enough to assault her daughter Ha Na in her own house is another glaring red flag!? The drama seems to normalizing/glorifying abuse in all forms to women and shockingly to a child wth?? Maybe that's how the show runners define drama/entertainment now

Dian Feb 22 2025 10:54 am It's all the same revenge themed drama. Do these writers use the same prompt all the time? Maybe it's time to create something else 'cause the quality has been in the drain for years.

Mikaela Feb 22 2025 1:46 am I started out loving the drama but I am getting really tired of watching everyone walking all over Hana. Also doesn't make sense to me why this brilliant business woman has no idea that her live-in cousin got her own daughter killed and now is after her grand son. I am going to have to stop watching at this point and wait for the episode 100 to come out this summer so I can see whether or not this will be a total waste of my mental energy waiting for some justice being done. I'm done.

B00 Feb 21 2025 12:13 am So annoyed with this show like why tell Yoon Se-Young that EunChong is missing she is NOT your friend like WTH. These writers or super lame. I am so over this show with everyone walking over and she has no spine.!!!

Jamse Feb 14 2025 1:40 pm It’s sad that the chairwoman, who started out with suspicion that her sadistic cousin might be responsible for her daughter’s disappearance and fatal accident, now seems to be completely oblivious to the cousin’s obvious manipulations. Which means that we’ll probably have to go to the end of the drama before she realizes what her cousin and sociopathic daughter have done to her.

sriya padmaperuma Feb 08 2025 9:40 am nice story but too many episode. would be nice little shoter episode-

Tybolt Feb 05 2025 8:58 pm Episode 45 had the best scene of the entire drama, so far (I was so proud of little sister!) and a perfectly justified act gets treated like it was the wrong thing to do. Grrrrrrr!!!!

ELSA Yuzon Jan 31 2025 6:33 am I super love this drama!ep. But why is episode 42 delayed!

Jamse Jan 29 2025 6:02 pm I love this drama, especially the implications that are to come

SPOILERS

You know that the chairwoman probably realizes that she’s put Ha Na in danger from her murderous cousin and her sociopath daughter. But even worse is that eventually we know the chairwoman will abandon Ha Na in order to get custody of Eun-Cheong, and Ha Na’s heart will break at the betrayal by her fake mom but also by Jim Goo whom she loves, who knew all along that the chairwoman was not her mother.

Kimberly Jan 24 2025 8:52 pm I hope the episode that might air on the date of 27 Jan at Korea and here is at 28 , Yujin dad might teach the annoying mom some lesson because she and her annoying daughter hate Hana so much and also hate the grandson too

Martha Jan 24 2025 4:34 pm Great actors in the drama even though it’s daytime. The only character that ruins it for me and I have to fast forward. Is this greedy annoying sister. I think the plot would’ve done just fine without her.

Tim Jan 24 2025 8:35 am Finally not the usual cliche Korean drama, the story is refreshing and entertaining

Kimberly Jan 13 2025 10:53 pm Correction what I mean were se young and her mom were eavesdropping but they were not doing it together , her mom eavesdropping by her self without anyone and then her daughter also eavesdropping by her self without anyone

Kimberly Jan 13 2025 10:41 pm Spoiler for eps 31 at the ending of eps 31 se young and her annoying mom might do something that might make you keep saying why two of you do that

Kimberly Jan 13 2025 10:29 pm I hate episode 31 because the ending makes me hate eps 32 even it's not even aired yet , I hope that the crazy mom and daughter stop becoming a person who love to eavesdropping, the person that I mean were se young and myeong ji that's it

HULAROCK Jan 11 2025 9:49 pm It was good.

  I had to stop disappointment.  It's not all that great.

Lam Chooy Wah Jan 10 2025 9:59 pm Ooos…I misunderstood. Ha Na meant she lost her adopted parents when she was in High School. But she was first sent to the orphanage at age 7 when her biological mother passed away - later adopted by Goo Ji Seok’s family at 10 after several adoptions/dissolutions. So Then she wouldn’t be able to remember her biological mum

Lam Chooy Wah Jan 10 2025 9:52 pm (Correction) @ep30, Hana meant she lost her adopted parents when she was in High School…..but she was first sent to Orphanage at age 7 (when she lost her biological mum) So then the age-timeline is right. This is the problem with long series that runs into so many episodes - it is easy to lose track of the beginning plot ?

Lam Chooy Wah Jan 10 2025 8:58 pm I’m at ep30….whats puzzling is this: if Ha Na lost her mom when she was in high school, surely she will still remember her mum’s face, memories etc. how could the chairman Yeo Jin fake ‘finding her’ as her missing daughter, who went missing at age8?? Discrepancy Writer…please get the age timeline right.

Valerie Jan 06 2025 1:46 pm I am paying very close attention. The flashbacks are unnecessary and only began after people complained about missing information that could have been shared earlier on. I noticed that a lot of the episodes are repeating scenes (with a little more detail). The only purpose being served with this ploy is to justify the number of episodes we will have to endure to get to the end. I am enjoying the acting except for the Se Young character (actress). The older female actresses are all phenomenal (even the villainess sister-in-law). IMHO, the story could be told in fewer episodes.

Frankie Jan 03 2025 8:14 pm Mostly I stay clear from long dramas with winding episodes but I decided to try watching this and I'm at episode 15 already. However I don't know why Writer-nim made Gu Hana the main FL mostly stupid especially epi 13 & 14. Knowing her brother is trying to "kill Hyesong Tour" but she's still working for the tour company. Realistically as siblings do we do still work for that company?

Abby Jan 03 2025 6:24 pm im about to watch it, i like the sypnosis, but i just want to ask if this has romance in it? i've been enjoying watching these kind of dramas but i would also want some romance...

Jamse Jan 02 2025 11:38 pm I like how this drama is going with

SPOILERS

The parents finding out about their missing daughter and her son now rather than having to wait until the last episodes. It will be exciting to see how they help Ha Na protect him from the sadistic witch Meyoung Gi and her sociopathic daughter going forward.

Kimberly Dec 31 2024 3:50 am Wow I just watch episode 21 and my guesses about it is right and can't wait to see episodes 22 , I hope that the annoying mom and annoying daughter never ever seeing chairman stuff when she is not at house , anyway I mean eps 21 but I type 19 due to I often forget number of previous episode that I watch

Kimberly Dec 31 2024 2:49 am @Nonnu yes me too

Kimberly Dec 31 2024 2:46 am Oops I make many mistake while typing basically I mean that's it but become that it lol , I want to add that Shin Yeo Jin at episode 19 kinda makes me feel curious for the next part , the things is I wanna know that something might happen to her until people ask what's wrong with you , well let's see at episode 20 , oops my comment until 2 part because I really² love this drama 10/10 for me , for real my comment is until this much

Kimberly Dec 31 2024 2:40 am I like this drama a lot but the only thing that makes me hate the drama because I don't know this drama have how many episode that it , I also can't wait to see episodes 20 ,hope can watch it when they think it's the good time to upload it ? anyway my favorite character is the dad that wearing a fake beard , I hate Yoon Se Young because she always hate Goo Hana , that's it for my comment

Phil38 Dec 29 2024 4:49 pm @Ruby I was confused as well ^^' I didn't want to believe he was an orphen. Until the latest episodes I still had hope he could find his mother...

k Dec 28 2024 12:21 pm Really good pace, especially as there are no subplots with the side characters. They all exist for the main plot. I wouldn't mind some time spared on the siblings though, it might get draggy if we do not have anything else. Really like the main couple's chemistry too, I can't wait for them to fall in love!

Nonnu Dec 27 2024 2:37 pm Eun chong and his grandpa making me cry ??

Kat Dec 26 2024 8:34 pm I love this series! If you are not paying attention it may seem scattered. However, this is like real life. It is only sequential when it is showing a certain character or characters and you have to pay attention to the flashbacks.

All of the actors have done a good job especially Na Young- Hee as a seasoned “typecast” actor she is definitely a box office because no matter how Random the other actor’s perform this particular typecast acting style is the glue within the plot. She is wonderful and I respect her talent. The acting Koo Ha-Na, Shin Yeo-Jin Hwang Jin-Koo

Jamse Dec 21 2024 12:41 pm SPOILERS

So Ha Na is raising her deceased friend’s child and looking for his grandmother. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out who that grandmother is. Which also opens up the possibility that her friend met with foul play at the hands of the witch Su Won. Stay tuned . . .

Jamse Dec 21 2024 12:53 am Will someone let the Se Young character stop scowling so much and maybe crack a smile? The poor girl is going to get wrinkles.

Eloisa Dec 20 2024 2:57 pm The plot holes are so funny... "oh no I can't find my best friend's wealthy family" as she enters the rich people's house where Portraits of her best friend as a child are hung on the wall lol

Ruby Dec 20 2024 2:18 pm @Valerie I am confused too. Why does Eun-Chong live with them? None of the siblings are the parent. Weird as hell.

RWA Dec 20 2024 8:19 am Completely unbelievable that Hwang Jin Goo, who is supposed to be a president of some company, lets his mom work as a cleaner/maid.

LZW Dec 17 2024 12:17 pm Real Sypnosis Ha Na's life has been unfortunate. She knows nothing about her mom, and her dad died in a fire when she was seven. She was adopted by her dad's friend but had to become the guardian of three younger siblings after her adoptive parents died. On top of that, she had to take care of her best friend Du Na's son after she passed. Driven by a sense of responsibility, Ha Na worked as an international tour guide, hoping to raise a worthy family. However, she loses her job due to a bad relationship with the president of Hyesung Tours, Hwang Jin Goo. Luckily, she was scouted back after a VIP member gave her recognition for her guiding skills. Working alongside Jin Goo, who's always sincere and bright, she develops feelings beyond admiration. However, she knows he's taken and pushes her feelings aside to focus on work. One day, Jin Goo tells her something shocking. "Your mom is looking for you." Should Ha Na believe him or not? Once again, Ha Na finds herself at another crossroads in her life.

Kathy Dec 16 2024 10:13 pm You have to suspend reality for these Kdramas. If a child got on a boat that went missing the police on every island and coastal town would be notified. There would be a national data base of missing children that even the dumbest policemen would check. It’s ridiculous. You just have to go along for the ride.

Valerie Dec 16 2024 10:12 am What is this? So does the real heiress (according to the show) just disappear? I don't see anyone cast as that character. And, where did the little boy that Goo Ha Na is raising come from out of the blue? This is a mess already.

chingu Dec 11 2024 8:28 pm The plot synopsis is very different from the actual story itself.

Kdrama Paksanim Dec 06 2024 7:27 pm @Boksoon my thoughts exactly. They were rich enough they could run an ad on TV. They did the barest of minimums. She disappeared on water they should have billboard ads in every neighbouring town not only searching her point of disappearance.

Boksoon Dec 04 2024 9:18 pm @Gian Louis I agree! Same story, Choi Hyeras mother has the same annoying character in this drama. and I have a comment regarding their search for the missing daughter. They can always go to the island to look for her, or the orphanage should report the missing child to the police, as well as the police should contact the other police stations to report that they found the missing child. I dont know, is this how they communicate? Because if I am the mother of the missing child, I would not sit and just wait for the police report. I would definitely go to all the surrounding islands because there are the possible places where her daughter is.

Gian Louis Dec 04 2024 8:26 am Lmao! Seyoung's mother is also Choi Hyera's mother in The Brave Yong Su-Jeong, and guess what? She's portraying the same annoying mother again. ?

Ajumma Dec 03 2024 9:57 pm The first part of the story is similar to Brave Yong Soo Jong. Choi Hyera is So Young and her mother is the same actor/character. Same writer?

Dante Dec 02 2024 2:07 am First Snow White...now Cinderella Next who ? Belle ? Rapunzel ? Jasmine ? Moana ? Mulan?

Sushi87 Nov 29 2024 4:34 pm She is back! Can't forget her good portrayal in Marriage Not Dating. Hwaiting and all the best to her come back. I hope it's gonna be a good show.

Cipicapa Nov 04 2024 1:59 pm Huaaaa can't wait to see action of Han Groo

Inmo Nov 02 2024 4:57 am Finally Han Groo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
