Oh no, hopefully L&S that I watch via one of China website will not be gone cause b4 that I watched FS also an China website which aired until Esp. 15 and stopped suddenly. I feel so disappointed and hunted for this current China website. It absolutely unfair to those AJW’s fans who been waiting patiently for his comeback drama.
April 2nd, 2012 at 11:18 am

@ Sangjhoon
Below is the title in Chinese. Just copy and paste. Change the number ep 9 to 10, 11, 12 and paste it in the search box so you can watch, search it easily. If you type in english, I tried, it get you no where unless its the most recent ep. So Happy watching.

As for Kim Soo Hyun, he is a male actor. I need to mention bc there is another female actress who has the same name as him.
Sorry, so far I did try TWIT. hee hee

@OK OK OK,
I also tried http:www.bbgyy.com this afternoon and it was blocked from entering indicated a harmful website. Sigh.
Maybe u try some othertimes.
April 2nd, 2012 at 4:02 pm
@Ok OK OK,
U can also try
http://www. fushion.com
which air various countries upto date dramas. Initially I viewed “L&S’ via this website till esp. 15 and it disappeared and now resume back again recently.
It a more user friendly website as what I felt compared with other China website.
April 2nd, 2012 at 5:56 pm
@ JL
I think the spelling in each website u gv is also v important bc 1 alphabet missing and u r at somewhere else. eg yr msg 59 u mention bbyy, then @ msg 84 it became bbgyy.
Re website u mention in 85, I knew long time ago. also the spelling is wrong. (n) is missing. Sorry to pt out the mistake. Maybe u all use to clicking the links which are kept in the fav that u forgot the correct spelling. Hope u don’t mind and kamsa hamnida.

@ OK OK OK,
Tks for pt. out my mistakes.

hello again OK OK OK many thnx for providing some tips, however when i typed L&S in that chin w/site it did give me the vids so i b/marked it & when i cont tonight i’ll be able to watch w/o any more hassle since it’s all in chinese!
some of the list u shared with us i started also such as:
1) rooftop prince (not sure if i really wld like this hahaha)
2) King 2 hearts (umhhh still not sure hahaha altho i luv both leads)
3) feast of the gods – i am addicted to this one
4) love rains – loving this one too
5) others – i may try the one with HJW’s brod as well as dummy mummy
there are just too many new ones that it’s hard to keep up isn’t it? while waiting for subs sometimes i resort to some Kmovies which is a lot shorter, hv u seen Hello School Girl, this one is old but cute & many others which i’m sure u’ve seen already!
thnx again for sharing the site of L&S otherwise i’d be frustrated w/o seeing this drama
hv a good day!

Ep 37 & 38
All the 3 bad guys (Jang Chul Hwan, Cha Soo Hyuk, Myeong Gook) r worried that KKT is back to S Korea. Jang Chul Hwan warn KKT if he ever lay a finger on him, he will make his soul rotten.
KKT lied to the 3 bad guys let bygones be bygone and he wont do anything bad to them.
After 4 yrs, KKT has become more mature. He is not so impulsive. He don’t review to any pp what is his next plan besides running his show biz. Actually, he, Jo Tae Su, Kim Buzhang & Yoo Chae Young are planning something “big” for the 3 bad guys – their downfall

Now hope the script will go well smoothly.
Hooray To All Lights & Shadows Team.

hi OK OK OK….i hv been lagging in watching cause of many things lately plus the many other dramas i’ve been following like feast of gods etc. but i’ll continue for sure! thnx for update on episodes, you’re such a diligent L&S fan
April 11th, 2012 at 10:41 am
Hi All AJW’s fans,there is also another link

Ep 39
With KKT’s plan, Myeong Gook lost JCH’s US$2 Million signing a fake venture contract. JCH beat MG after finding out his money is gone.
Lesson : Never put your own money in someone else care bc end up he will help you to spend it. ha ha
April 11th, 2012 at 4:50 pm
Ep 40
Cha Soo Hyuk & Myeong Gook now know that KKT is behind everything & is searching for the cheating evidence.
CSH, pls wake up. If lead girl Lee Jung Hye don’t fall in love with u in 4 yrs, even in 40 yrs, she still wont fall for you. Aren’t u tire?
I m curious. Until now, there is no scene showing how KKT’s father cheated Myeong Gook’s family possession that makes him hate KKT so much. So I m not convince here.
I also not convince, how come KKT did not tell LJH to be aware of Cha Soo Hyuk since he has do so much harm to him…..
I don’t like LJH’s character here. Not smart.
April 13th, 2012 at 12:07 am
@ JL
Besides this L & S, what other drama r u watching?? Just curious. hehe
April 13th, 2012 at 11:22 am
@OK OK OK,
U will feel disappointed, I only watch L&S. Other than that I watched Jap. short serial,
sad, comedy & crime etc.
April 13th, 2012 at 4:31 pm
@OK Ok Ok,
Ref to your comments on LSH’s character, I found that she is a passionate woman who loved KKT so much that she had to gave up her love for him in order to protect KKT from being harm fm JCH and others. Lately she discovered that CSH is becoming more and more scary due to her love to KKT. Maybe during the 80 century, most of the women are innocent and not smart. HeHe
Looking fwd to Mon & Tues.
