Comments

Sentinel Prime Feb 27 2026 3:04 am They should have let the script go in the direction of Jung Won impersonating Young Chae and doing all sorts of evil things to cover it up, but instead they made everything even more complicated and worse.

HabuHabu Feb 25 2026 3:43 am @SayWhat! I thought he was dead

SayWhat! Feb 24 2026 10:37 pm Thank goodness it has ended. One of the worst dramas ever. @HabuHabu, in a conversation with someone (can't remember who), Gong mentioned that she shipped him off to Paris. He was doing well there as a model.

Sushi87 Feb 24 2026 6:54 pm This was a bad drama and stopped watching early on.

HabuHabu Feb 24 2026 5:48 am what happened to the one that killed (Park Kyeong Sin) by Joo Yoong Chae, they hid this guy so what happened there?

Anna Feb 22 2026 8:53 am One of the worst K-dramas I’ve ever watched. The FL started off as an ambiguous and intriguing character, but everything fell apart when the writers decided to change the synopsis to make her more likable... and still failed miserably. In the end, I genuinely couldn’t care less whether she lived or died.

On top of being irritating, the actress’s mediocre performance did nothing to help. To make matters worse, the chemistry between her and her romantic counterpart was practically nonexistent. It’s no surprise that viewers in Korea were rooting for YC and SH in the finale, even though they were morally questionable characters.

In fact, SH had the potential to become a truly compelling villain, but audiences ended up being charmed by him and his tragic fate.

Frankly, the best characters were GNS and JTS. The actors must be dealing with back problems from carrying this entire drama on their shoulders.

Matty Feb 21 2026 1:51 pm This has been one of the most idiotic drama I’ve ever watched. I can’t believe I wasted so much time on it. ?

Jj Feb 20 2026 7:16 pm This show was actually a good successor to Queen’s House story. Sure, the storyline in the first half was the show’s main plot and hopefully they maintained that but regardless, they already got the attention of viewers that would take you to the back of your seats till the end.

Kwan Feb 17 2026 1:16 pm I'm quitting this drama--it's just the same stuff over and over. Terrible.

Rose Feb 11 2026 1:01 am I hope this drama ends at 100 it's doesn't have a worthy story line all are repeats so annoying

lily345 Feb 10 2026 10:26 pm The male lead and female lead are not suited for leading roles; they are better suited for supporting roles. They lack of charisma.

The actress who play as Jeongwon and the actor eho play ad Haneul  . They can not carry out the Drama

Chingu Feb 10 2026 8:02 pm When will this drama end jebal hahahahha The story is going around in circles. Revenge, poison, trying to kill each other, greed. The writer is telling us that the characters in this story are all stupid.

OhLesedi Feb 10 2026 7:41 am I really wanted to like this drama, but there were way to many plot twists, that weren't adding anything to the plot. Poor use of some great actors.

Gia Feb 01 2026 12:24 am I like the story where Jung won only pretended as young chae, they should have stick to that plot, than adding those ridiculous biological father and daughter what ever.. meh

Adrian Jan 30 2026 3:22 pm This has got to be the stupidest drama with the stupidest story line I've ever watched..

Jamse Jan 24 2026 10:54 pm SPOILERS

It’s as I feared, after an engrossing and exciting first half of this drama, they’re just flailing around in the second half. With a vague “Get the Chairman” theme, each day is another stunt. Thrown off a multi-story building, poisoned, hit at full speed by a car, the victims just get a few days rest and are back to normal as if nothing happened. Stealing designs, assassination plots, they seem to alternate. And nobody seems bothered by the unwitting in cest between Jung Won and Se Hun once it was revealed that Jung Won was the Chairman’s daughter (sure, Se Hun isn’t really his son, but they don’t know that.). The only good thing are the funny interactions between Gong Su, Secretary Ku, and the Grandma channeling Chef.

esso Jan 24 2026 4:32 pm Are they writing this script day by day? The last 20 minutes have been the same recycled plotline over and over again? How many times are you guys going to try and kill the female lead? How many times will the evil characters betray everyone around them

LSY Jan 22 2026 8:56 am it might turn out that Joo Yeong-Chae was really the biological daughter of Mi Hyang, and Joo Ha-Neul was the real son of Gong Nan Sook.

Yeong Chae was probably the real Jung Won girl who tried to save Su Ah and got knocked down by car, lost her memory and not sure how she ended up becoming daughter of Gong Nan Sook.

lol.

Tmr Jan 17 2026 7:47 pm @sf there's a scene when jin ts told se hun that he was adopted then never talk about that again

sf Jan 17 2026 1:57 am Are Jin Se-Hun and Cha Jeong-Won really brothers, or did I miss something? None of them seems shocked by the fact that they were married to each other.

Ookja Jan 14 2026 8:36 am Is FL actually jin ts’s daughter?

Tia Jan 11 2026 3:42 pm FLs can't even be morally grey without people having an issue with it, damn. ? Y'all hate naive FLs, good FLs, sweetheart FLs, older FLs (can't even accept ones that are 40 yrs old & up lol), ruthless FLs, anti-heroine FLs, complex FLs, evil FLs... what's next? Who's next? A robot FL is who you're gonna hate on now?

Ahjumma Jan 07 2026 9:19 am And by the way… am I the only one thinking that chairman Jin is Jongwons father since they have the same bloodtype? Hmmmm…

Ahjumma Jan 07 2026 9:16 am Another stupid scene! Why would Jongwon meet somebody at the rooftop when she was about to go to her press conference duh! Is meeting someone that important than those reporters who were waiting for her?

Jamse Jan 06 2026 4:59 pm I know that it’s standard KDrama logic so this question is rhetorical but

SPOLERS

Knowing the chairman threw Jung Won off a roof, did it ever occur to any of these dummies that they maybe should post guards to protect her when he inevitably returned to finish the job? And why they never make copies of USBs that have damning evidence on them?

sf Jan 03 2026 5:25 am I am glad Jeong-Won got what she deserved from the start. I think Jeong-Won character is one of the three FL characters in kdramas whom I do not sympathise with. Stupid and stubborn like her father. Avid for a luxurious life like her mother. Liar like she is. I hope she will remain in that bed for a long time.

TotallyTwisted Jan 02 2026 9:42 am I didn't have anything to do and all the good Dramas are on Saturday.

Wow, it finally happened she got her wish....she close to dying. What a plot twist????????

Mel Dec 25 2025 8:56 pm I hear you @Anna! Totally agree. Nothing graceful in the way Jeongwon treated Sehun. I watch the drama only now and then, when there's nothing better to see.

So I just saw the scene where Jeongwon classmates bullied her. And I wonder, none of them saw the articles where she was referred to as Yeongchae?

Anna Dec 25 2025 10:58 am This drama started promisingly, with an ambiguous character obsessed with money and status. But once revenge left the scene, the story completely lost its way. It feels like nonsense, and I end up forgetting to watch it.

The couple? A disaster. No chemistry, hypocritical, pretending to be pure, when in reality they use and discard anyone who’s no longer useful. JW exploited SH to climb socially, while the “friend” HN betrayed him and covered up every lie of the con-artist lover. Rooting for people like this? Impossible.

abc Dec 25 2025 4:21 am The 1st FL is still making that funny expression with her twisted mouth, that makes her face looks very hostile. I really don't know how to describe that. But the sympathetic words and that expression don't jell. It makes her words very surreal. The 2nd FL is more convincing and a better actress.

The 2 MLs are on par. So far, both give rather bland performances.

Dex Dec 23 2025 10:56 pm I agree with @Totallytwisted. The scene where Yeongchae opened her robe (slightly) is still giving me nightmares. Looks so malnourished & definitely not seductive!

The whole plot is crazy. In the first place, why would Nansook turn to Taeseok for help when she killed her husband. A loan shark doesn't have muscle? Why would she want to give Taeseok something to hold over her?

Kibeom was a good man and I'm sorry he was killed. His crazy daughter doesn't blame herself when she started the whole crazy thing. She acts as if she will just go in, take revenge and exit in triumph. Now she wants revenge for her Dad.

Totallytwisted Dec 22 2025 2:34 pm 12/22/25 This drama is slow and confusing.

  How many girls does the LF needs to give up a man too?"?????

Jamse Dec 11 2025 3:28 pm The first 50ish episodes were solid and engrossing, but it makes you wonder if they’ll be able to maintain in the second half of the drama. All the secrets are known, so what will it be? More stolen designs, sabotaged orders, kidnappings, locked in rooms, in mortal peril, etc etc etc? In other words, typical drama fare? It will be disappointing if they can’t build on the start and are stuck with filler.

Ria Dec 05 2025 5:52 pm No sympathy fr fl. She as a whole feels fake. She should go to mental therapy. She acts like a psycho. Revenge n being strong is good but fr some reason she is giving me an ick.

Amy Dec 03 2025 9:16 am The female lead is such a good actress, she pulls off being a kind and loving person and being bitter and vengeful so effortlessly, what an interesting kdrama

Jamse Dec 01 2025 2:20 pm The lead actress on this show is incredible. You rarely see someone who can show fear, anger, disappointment, resentment, hurt, and longing all at the same time, but she really pulls it off.

Jamse Nov 30 2025 5:17 pm I have to say the lead, Lee Shi A, is an incredible and subtle actor. She can pull off fear, resentment, hurt, and vulnerability at the same time, no easy task.

Sushi87 Nov 28 2025 6:59 pm Ridiculous plot as always but entertaining lol.

Dex Nov 28 2025 5:05 am I agree with a much earlier comment that an early episode showed Jeongwon looking at Hyera & thinking to herself that she will get her revenge on her for abandoning her. Then subsequent episodes was like she didn't know that was her Mum!

Actors looks, facial expressions and body language play a big part in portraying a scene so it is natural they be judged for it. And in real life, people are judged instantly on first impressions. So let's get real about it.

Chingu Nov 25 2025 7:50 pm The female lead is worst- in acting and shes not fit to be the lead role. She not even pretty, the second lead is more pretty. I dont know how did she get to act the female lead.

Mel Nov 20 2025 8:07 pm Will not be following this drama so closely from now on. To me, I find it's getting absurd and tedious. Also, I do not really care for the main leads. Haneul and Sehun are both rather soft. Jeongwon and Yongchae are both unlikeable characters. I can't watch a drama where I can't root for any of the leads. I'm out!

Anna Nov 19 2025 9:47 am Love this drama!

like wut? Nov 15 2025 8:59 pm i thought in the beginning she knew it was her mother because it showed a flashback of them, but then apparently she didn't recognize her. but then she doesn't know her mother's name at all???

Tia Nov 15 2025 3:10 pm Y'all are being so mean in the comments lol I've been enjoying this drama. I love a villain/anti-heroine FL, get em all, Jung-Won! Pretty of not (I think she looks fine), pulling off this kind of role is not easy and the acting has been good for me so far. I do not like Ha-Neul, though. Too indecisive. Heavily prefer Se-Hun at the moment.

Lee Seung-Yeon is a legend, bad actress? Yeah, she's overacting, but that's common in daily dramas. And the budget is clearly higher in this drama, there's a lot of outdoor scenes, real places being filmed at, the outfits are better, and the sets had a little makeover!

Dn Nov 14 2025 10:51 pm Didn't the step mother and her father lie to her too?

Wheat Nov 14 2025 4:18 pm Sorry but the female lead is terrible at acting. Her facial expressions are so bad. I don’t know how she got that role and the plot is extremely slow

Mel Nov 11 2025 4:13 am Jeongwon grew up with Dad and Mihyang cursing whenever Hyera's name was mentioned. She was repeatedly told to forget the woman who abandoned her child. Think it would take more than a drawing to convince her that Hyera didn't intend to leave her. But I do think that Hyera was selfish and wrong to want to secure her own position before bringing Jeongwon with her.

@sf, that would be very interesting indeed!

Somehow I thought that the wedding would not happen. I thought she would end up with Hanuel.

sf Nov 07 2025 6:12 pm It seems that the fact Han Hye-Ra kept the drawing in a frame for so many years means nothing for Jeong-Won. Her stupid revenge is worth a punishment. The best punishment for her will be if the real Joo Yeong-Chae manipulates things so that Han Hye-Ra believes that she is the real daughter. When all Han Hye-Ra's love and attention will be only for the real Yeong-Chael, believing that she is her daughter, that will be the punishment for Jeong-Won.

Mel Oct 30 2025 7:55 am Would a chaebol family want their son & heir to marry the daughter of a loan shark? And happy to make it public knowledge? The public is only interested in the bride. No word or scorn as to her mother's job? Very unlikely and totally unbelievable.

Yes, agree about Lee Seung Yeon. Don't remember drama titles but I haven't really watched kdramas for that long. The first time I saw her, I thought she was a good actress. The second drama, she had on garish makeup, very weird dressing and very unfeminine. I thought it was strange for the role she was playing. It seems she now plays all roles like this.

Dex Oct 29 2025 12:00 am Hi @sf, I would agree if I hadn't seen Lee Seung Yeon in other dramas. In all the shows, her character has no dress sense, walks like a tomboy, etc.

Regarding manners, dramas portray the rich as very lacking in that department. They behave like they were raised by wolves.

sf Oct 28 2025 1:41 am The actress portrays Gong Nan-Sook's character very well. It is known that people who are active in this area have no manners and are not stylish.

Mel Oct 27 2025 8:05 am Chairman Jin was involved in framing Cha Gibeom for the death of Yeongchae's Dad. But he didn't kill him. He and the loanshark are neck-and-neck in crimes.

Having said that, I think Hyera's long separation from her daughter is mainly her fault. Her first thought was for herself "can't live as a murderer's wife". She could have taken Jeongwon with her or best, stayed put. Mihyang and Jeongwon stayed by Gibeom's side and you can see the strong bond.

I don't like Jeongwon. Most of the time she has a weird expression on her face. Hard to warm up to her. The 2 most likeable characters are Gibeom and Haneul. I feel sorry for Sehun. Will he become a villain when the truth is revealed?

Dex Oct 20 2025 7:15 am Is it realistic that hardly anyone know what the real Yeong Chae looks like? The girl has nothing going for her except for Mummy's money. And she's forever saying "do you know who I am? I am Joo Yeong Chae". As if someone like that would stay under the radar.

So she stole Jeongwon's designs and gained admittance to a prestigious art college. How did she graduate?

Jamse Oct 14 2025 3:20 pm Hah, I called it. It looks like Chairman Jin Tae Sook is going to be the drama’s main villain.

Dex Oct 13 2025 3:07 am haha @ Magda USA, I also had the same thoughts about Gong Nansook. Overacting - always either with the hands in the pocket or sitting with legs wide open. Even if she's wearing pants, it looks very vulgar especially done by an old woman.

Jeongwon has to smile. She looks quite pretty when she does. Otherwise, she has a very grumpy face.

Magda USA Oct 11 2025 11:13 pm I meant to also say that, red headed women with too much makeup and behaves like a thug! Dresses like a wanna be fashion model! The one playing Joo Yeong Chae’s mother, is not at all a good actress. At least not in this series!

Magda USA Oct 11 2025 10:42 pm This series has a good story to tell, with some well known actors and actresses! And some very good looking too! However it’s so Soap Opera style that it’s boring! It’s too staged. It’s like looking at a filming stage, where they show open rooms, one next to another. It’s not naturally flowing! Up to now, episode 6 the main lead female character, is not at all a very natural actress. This series compared to so many other excellent series, is a cheap production. Apparently budget was low. From 1-5 stars, if I remember as to rate it, I’d give it a 3.

Mel Oct 10 2025 9:04 am So its beginning to look like Gong Nan Sook framed Park Cheol Ho for her husband's murder.

At this stage, I don't think I will closely follow this drama. The plot has been rehashed in a few dramas.

UP3 Oct 07 2025 8:36 pm Many dramas typically do not air around the Chuseok holiday to allow for the cast and crew to spend time with their families.

MsChume Oct 07 2025 5:27 pm Where is episode 11??

J Miller Oct 06 2025 2:21 pm Is episode 11 not airing today?

Hadassai Oct 05 2025 6:42 pm Please when is episode 11 coming out please don't keep me hanging like in Beyond the Bar

asdf Oct 04 2025 2:38 pm ending song title?

Jamse Oct 02 2025 11:56 pm SPOILERS (maybe)

Anybody want to surmise that Tae Seok was the one who framed Hye Ra’s husband in order to get her to leave him? And since he didn’t want to raise Jeong Won to begin with, I bet he’ll end up being the drama’s main villain.

Jamse Oct 02 2025 11:49 pm Nicholas, my impression too, somebody must have switched the scripts.

Nicolas Hernandez Oct 01 2025 2:41 pm Don't you think the actress playing the role of the main character when she's a teenager looks too much like the one who's playing her spoiled friend when adult? Don't you think they should have swapped? ;)

Blanca Trueba Sep 30 2025 9:27 pm The same actress is also abandoning her child in Beauty and Mr Romantic. But in that drama, it was a son and not a daughter.

Eloisa Sep 26 2025 3:24 pm I am So Pleased with this kdrama! It's on another level. Perfect timing since Queen's House just ended... and the last episode was awfully lame.

The cast is attractive, the frenemies side plot is thrilling - and don't get me started on the rags to riches trope. 30 minutes of pure fun. So far I've been watching one episode with my meals to pass the time and I'm already aching for more. :]

Jamse Sep 23 2025 7:20 am A very powerful start to the drama. I get the sense that there’s more than meets the eye on the mother’s supposed abandonment of the heroine.

Joongki Sep 22 2025 6:47 am The plot is kinda similar to Red Shoes. Another mother vs. daughter drama. The previous drama in its timeslot, Queen's House, was really good! Let's see if this holds up.

S Sep 20 2025 9:40 pm It seems that the stories of all such dramas are somehow the same. Only the actors and the name of characters change. Just like unknown woman and red Shoes,this drama is also about a mother and daughter fighting each other. Most likely the themes like plagiarism and seducing a man about to get married will also come in the story.

Mark Joseph Sep 04 2025 10:25 am Lee Shi A is also the main leading role of the KBS 1 Longest Daily Family Drama entitled "Strange Family" in 149 Episodes last 2016, Minami.

Minami Sep 03 2025 6:59 pm Lee Shi a, always saw her role as the dead sister, dead girlfriend, dead young mother.. she finally has leading role at last
