"Yellow Boots" depicts the revenge of a woman, who lost her family and lover, because of her step-sister.

In February, 2007, Yeon-Hwa (Lee Yu-Ri) is beaten by other prisoners and is sent to the hospital, but at the hospital she escapes as she planned. With her friend's help, Yeon-Hwa gets through a police inspection on the street and arrives at the wedding hall where Yoo-Ra (Yun Ah-Jeong) and Yoon-Jae (Hyun Woo-Sung) are about to marry. Yeon-Hwa and Yoo-Ra, wearing her wedding dress, finally face on the rooftop of the wedding hall.

3 months before that, Yeon-Hwa lived with her younger sister Soo-Ae (Min Ji-Hyun) in a small studio. After Yeon-Hwa begins to work at Jay Cosmetic Company, she dreams to marry her boyfriend Yoon-Jae. Her life is happy, but Yeon-Hwa, who works as an assistant at a make-up art show held by Jay Cosmetic Company, faces her step-sister Yoo-Ra. Yeon-Hwa's mother is married to Yoo-Ra's father.

Shuly4578@gmail.com Jun 26 2023 5:54 am The story is good. I can't stop wtching. True wrongful five years in prison and liising a child having a sick mother on top of that and a dependeble sister. Wow , . I would never go back to the father of the child. It's too riscky because who knows what he will peifer to do next. Being the last priority in yoon jea life makes me angry about him. It clearly shows what he did to his beloved girlfreind

Tina May 22 2023 6:10 am It was a bit disappointing and too predictable. Honestly, The cast did well. They played their roles amazingly, but the script was a flop. The Law elements were horribly protrayed. (I don't know if the laws in South Korea are that that weak in reality or nonexistent at all).

I loved that someone with a disability got a happily ever after. I don't know why such romance is avoided. This is the first Korean drama I have seen that has shown this and I enjoyed it...It felt genuine.

Yun Ah-Joeng was brilliant. This woman is a talent and so completely underrated. She played her role as Choi Yoo-Ra spectacularly and deserved and award...Wow

The script was horrible. They tried too hard to make you feel sympathy for the female protagonist and her family. I only felt sympathy when her child was taken from the orphanage, all the other times I truly didn't. This is because those situations where avoidable.

Again, some people like these kinds of things, but no one in this planet is that stupid. The script needed work...A lot of it. The roles of the female lead where extremely exaggerated at the being. It was simply too unbelievable and unrealistic...There are nice people in this world, but not overly stupid.

If you're bored and the series is being aired daily in your country, please watch it. 6/10

Macash May 20 2023 3:29 pm I really enjoyed di series/drama home it will continue soon I hv learnt a lot from this drama. I have never cried over drama of any kind but dis one make me cried when I see the struggle of a beautiful young lady

Joy Apr 27 2023 8:45 am Please were can we watch complete series..I can't wait anymore?

Lorena Apr 12 2023 4:09 am I want to know if the series is based on a true story

Deitra Mar 22 2023 9:57 pm Most Korean revenge dramas, at least the ones I’ve seen the people doing revenge never forgive the person that wronged them, they always go all the way in destroying those that destroyed them. Maybe Hollywood does it differently, I don’t know.

izza Mar 18 2023 7:27 am Watching today March18,2023. i saw it in one of the apps where i used to watch kdramas. I found it interesting and the female lead i like her. i was shocked that it was 108 ep. I love this drama just seeing ep 1 and i fell inlove with it. grrr i so hate Yoora here.?

Meisie Jun 05 2021 1:05 am Love your series.

sera May 19 2020 6:08 am Read all the comments but didn’t see any appreciation posts for Kang Suk Jang (as kim tae il) I think he acted rly well~~ plus he and su ae’s interactions were so cute???

lrt Apr 10 2020 10:53 am This is the only drama I've seen that gives the viewer some sweet revenge and not in the hot 5 minutes at the end or the too often ending with acceptance and forgiveness of bad behavior. Lots of twists and turns. Forget the echo's from the set or the terrible hairstyling in places...the script is worth your time and I neeeever got bored, a real page turner. The Kang-Wook story line broke my heart because he really was the rock for all that happened to Yeon-Hwa and deserved some happiness of his own!

Tzuyu Jun 27 2018 5:54 am I love this movie and this is really my life and I just love it I study in Korea and I just love it every day I watched it is so nice movie

Iimaa Nov 30 2017 7:16 am i love this movie like omg its so nice like i'm so opsid with this movie so much just love but chon gang is so sweet but only think i hate is when choi yoo ra mada sol yen hwa go to jail and do something bad but like omg just love i love this its lik the best movie ever like omg i am so obseed geezzzz !!!!!!!!! #love #koreandrama #revenge gooo cheer for you ( when you are to addicted to ice adonis and didnt relise this comment was to cringe )

Paul Wrightsman Sep 05 2017 6:41 pm Watching this 5 year old drama with minimal interest. My Korean wife is watching avidly. The difference in interest is it's lack of English sub-titles. Viewership of Korean dramas would increase dramatically if they would retro-add English translations. Even the older dramas merit such treatment . . . especially those featuring Lee, Yu-ri!

Malditang Bugay Dec 18 2016 3:28 pm The plot. When I first saw the amount of episodes this drama had, I shivered. I thought “is it really possible for a drama to stay to the plot without becoming too dragged out if it has 108 episodes?” My answer, YES. IT CAN. This is a true masterpiece so don’t hesitate to watch this drama. 108 episodes may be a lot but it is definitely worth it. Every second of it added to the plot and it never felt draggy at all. Every episode had a cliffhanger that led the plot to the next episode. Usually, I skip episodes in long dramas like this, but this one was just the bomb.

sally Oct 22 2016 2:38 am Gosh i cant believe anyone would ruth for kang wook He basically killed yoon hee.dat baastard ruined yoonjaes live. He deserve to die dat way..i know for sure dat y/y will endup together

Imagine yourself in his shoes..i wouldnt believe my bf too..its his sister..gosh! Kang wook killed his sis while his mom killed d dad...if not for kangwook everything wouldve bin different..choi yura wouldnt have committed murder..i wonder why his mom didnt die as well...both are trash

Maisa Aug 02 2016 8:28 pm I look over the drama but some episodes I wish they would put more action

ajamin Jul 16 2016 8:35 am I loved this drama so much. so exciting each episode. you can't get bored. But the saddest thing was that choi kang wook died in the end. why ? after all he did he deserved to be with yeon hwa. he was the best and most selfless character . I really fell in love with him so much

Piper Apr 15 2016 12:52 am I can say 'Yellow boots,Your Lady, Come Jang Bo ri,The Promise' are the best Lee yo ri's drama that I enjoyed so far

Grace Mar 20 2016 1:58 am Team choi kang wook

Lee Yanna Feb 21 2016 6:50 pm gosh , this is a very nice story. ive cried alot while watching this story.. seol yeon hwa is a best actress

ira Feb 05 2016 10:24 am i fell in love with Jung Chan... not Kang Wook but the real Jung Chan :)

ChiTownMom Jan 24 2016 4:53 pm This drama reminded me a lot of The Scarlet Letter. However, I have to say that Yu Ra is move evil. She says she wants people to love her, but she does despicable things to get what she wants or to cover up. It was VERY hard to watch the first few episodes and see Yeon Hwa be abused but it gets better. And I agree that the ending is more realistic and not that fru-fru fluffy crap holywood puts out. That is the way life can be.

meme Jan 23 2016 2:42 am I love how the ending is sooo realistic n not the fake "I gorgive you" stuff. Everybody even the bf got what yhey deserves! I like how she said she doesn't forgive her n wants her to be tortured, but does pity her at the same time. Wow, in kdrama the lead gurl never ever says that, they would make the lead gurl soo perfect to the point where she says she forgive he other girl. It's a bittersweet endig and I am super excited that she managed to realized that her bf at the begining is not the one, if he is he would've sticked with her until proven innoncent instead he almost narried her step sister. How shameless of him to tell her he'll wait for her at the end. Ts tsk!!!!! Love love the ending!!!! If she ends up w the bf i will probably go nuts!!! Kekek great drama got me from ep 1 intro to the last one.

miyakozuchi Jan 21 2016 7:15 am Can I ask what the tittle of this in Korea? :( asap tnx

PALYN Jan 14 2016 1:15 am choi kang wook is a hero! i love watching him, their romantic scene with yeon hwa. the saddest part is when kang wook died.:( why must he die? anyways I like him, The way he smile, ohhh.. its so enchanting! KANG WOOK AND YEON HWA FOREVER!

nini Nov 24 2015 11:51 am loved every piece of this drama. recommended

Yago Nov 20 2015 10:44 pm This drama is very similar to "TEMPTATION OF WIFE" The story is very predictable -_- I think it's just the remake of it. So similar

GINELLE C Aug 10 2015 4:54 pm one of the best shows I have seen in a while. I wish they would continue the story and O do miss Zorba a lot.

lmtesther Dec 26 2013 6:58 am I can't stop watching it being a mother i used to like it .it also teaches me a lot about how to love and care my children.

Prisca Dec 22 2013 12:38 am It was an interesting movies and I would like to know what happened @ the end

SuperShadow96 Dec 07 2013 4:07 am I agree with you Genly.. the stepsister seriously bothered me.......

humplin Sep 21 2013 9:32 am the ending was nice though jung chan died but still it was okay coz the bad girl got life sentenced in prison and she lived herslef single forever and ended at the little sister's wedding if my memory is correct....its a great drama,evils got punished..

aLLY Sep 21 2013 7:38 am I stopped watching this drama in the middle because the step sis was seriously bugging me, so could someone please tell me the ending? I'm really curious

Genly Sep 21 2013 7:37 am I had to stop this drama in the middle because the step sis was seriously bothering me but I really wanna know the ending. Could someone please tell me?

qwen Aug 21 2013 7:28 pm I love the drama, but I hate the ending

Ba Ne Sa Jul 28 2013 11:44 am Yeon Hwa and Yoon jae, u guyz look cute together.. Hope ure dating for real.. Aja! Aja!! Fighting!!!

hibiscus Jun 13 2013 4:58 pm i started watching this last week & liking it however with the evil stepsister i'm taking a break bcoz she's getting me more upset with her evil deeds/schemes on her, i like hyeon woo sung so much he's a good actor & i will only finish this bcoz of him & lee yo ri the other actress is so loathsome to the max! highly recommend this kdrama.

chen Apr 14 2013 9:02 pm I'm watching this right now, up to episode 3~ and wah~ Yeon-Hwa and Yoon Jae are so cute together!! I'm really upset that she didn't just accept his marriage proposal with the parents... ughhhh, and now knowing that he will marry the step-sister, I'm so frustrated ! I'm not going to know what happens until all the way to the last ep which I believe is ep 108.

emmydas Mar 29 2013 6:25 pm Why does Yun Ah-Jeong always play the bad person? In Hundred's years Inheritance she played Eugene's evil sister in law.

rosetta Mar 20 2013 12:55 pm I finish watched the yellow boots, I really like it, especially Seol Yeon Hwa her character in the show. Ha Yoon Jae you are very so handsome, the ending I didn't like, ;like I expected. Looking forward to your next drama. FIGHTING!!!

humplin Mar 06 2013 3:04 pm reminds me of pink lipstick drama........almost same plot but still diffrent....

loanne Feb 20 2013 2:28 am Yellow Boots is the best drama that I have seen. I like it a lot. I would rate it 5+. All the actors and actress are very good impressive.

Darius Dec 15 2012 6:57 am Was YH with YJ in the end?

t-ara lover Dec 04 2012 7:53 am Yun Ah Jeong fighting.You are the best.I want to watch this drama because of her.
