Note
- Actress Ham Eun Jung from idol group “T-ara” was originally cast for the co-lead female character of Hong Da Mi, but is no longer part of the series from August 21, 2012. A possible bullying scandal among the members of “T-ara” caused an uproar in South Korea and with two other members of “T-ara” (Hyo Min in “The Thousandth Man” & Park So Yeon in “Lovers of Haeundae” ) appearing in drama series that are receiving low ratings, an agreement was made to replace Ham Eun Jung. Filming for the adult characters is scheduled to begin August 23, 2012. Actress Jin Se Yun has accepted the offer to play the role vacated by Ham Eun Jung.
- Episode 13 & 14 broadcasted on 29/Sep/2012 back to back due to SBS aired the special program for Chuseok Day on 30/Sep/2012.

I guess for as long as the story and cast continue to interest me, I shan’t be overly concern about the ratings and continue to watch. I am not bothered about negative comments to a drama that I am watching just so long as I think otherwise because we all have our preferences and differences. I always think it’s important to know what you like and not let the ratings influence you. Ratings here is to show how popular the drama is and is decided by the Koreans. My Husband Got Family is now considered the National drama and has achieved 40% in ratings but how many of us are actually watching this drama? Not many, it has never been on the ‘Popular Now’ list! So for those of you who are undecided whether to start this drama or any drama for that matter, give the drama a chance, then decide and not let the ratings nor comments, especially negative ones influence you. Just thinking aloud
September 9th, 2012 at 2:39 pm
I don’t give a shit about the ratings. Yeah ratings are important for the popularity of drama itself but it doesn’t determine the quality of drama itself, which is good or bad. For those who have been rooting in K-Drama must be know it. So far, I enjoy and love this drama! Fighting 5F!
September 9th, 2012 at 8:27 pm
Aissshhh!! I really hate Da Mi for making such a huge mistake of using the piece that doesn’t even belong to her… i hate her for putting up Ji Ho on such a terrible situation!!! grrrrrrrrrrrrrr
September 9th, 2012 at 10:09 pm
this drama is not good without eun jung t-ara
i don’t like this drama n the management this drama…
go the hell
September 10th, 2012 at 12:06 am
I am uber happy the way the ratings drops with every episodes.
They must pay, foolish SBS staff and production teams must pay the cost for kicking my Eunjung out.
They kicked out well-prepared Eunjung and replaced with a busy and random actress.
That’s why Five Fingers fails although the stroyline is awesome and Ji Changwook, Joo Jihoon and Chae Sera are really good at acting, Jin Seyeon destroys the drama’s success.
September 10th, 2012 at 2:27 am
LMAO as always EJ/T-ara’s fans come in any Five Fingers sites and giving harsh comments about this drama.
you should read carefully in many articles that from the beginning the PD has been interested in Jin Se Yeon as Hong Dami, they even stated that JSY is the right actress as Hong Dami. Due to JSY busy schedule with Gaksital then they casting EJ, which EJ was the second choice as Hong Dami.

@clairerosean #330:
i super agree with u….d writer has committed a major miscalculation in epi 5…by having da mi play ji ho’s composition. it was already bad enuf having her replace eunjung…now to commit this despicable act which will surely discredit her character further….geeeez…i dun like her at all. n for putting ji ho in a spot…this is real bad!
no wonder ratings for epi 6 & 7 continues to take d plunge…im sure many viewers are equally pissed off.
September 10th, 2012 at 8:42 am
@Nora Agree with you. Some of these people are so lost and confused that they don’t know what is real or drama anymore and lump them together in their comments. These people really need help
September 10th, 2012 at 12:54 pm
they deserve a LOWER RATINGS Than this… so Glad Eunjung is not in this drama anymore… lol this is what we call K.A.R.M.A
September 10th, 2012 at 12:55 pm
lol JSY’s acting is Way beyond HORRIBLE.. its DISGUSTING
September 10th, 2012 at 2:34 pm
JSY’s acting is horrible and disgusting?? but, many Producers of the three big boardcast in Korea like and choose her for their Dramas baby!
Jealous much eh? LOL
September 10th, 2012 at 2:35 pm
i hate the drama when the evil character is too evil at almost become surreal. i thought she doesn’t have a proper reason to become that evil which put me off so i stop watching it. but the drama seems more interesting than may queen. maybe i’ll watch it when it completed.
September 10th, 2012 at 3:58 pm
lol jsy act is so fucking bad,,,even netizen said that,,,dami suppose to be like eugene at kim tak goo,,but because jsy acting is bad they change dami personality to become cheerfull,,,look at the jsy dami poster,,smiling like a retard,,,stupid sbs and 5fs now can die with her bitch,,single digit rating baby
September 10th, 2012 at 5:21 pm
You can give those harsh comments toward JSY just because she took the role of Eunjung’s right? Whatever Eunjung’s fans say about JSY, at least JSY is a lovely and good person..many people like to work with her.
Who cares about rating? ONLY Eunjung’s fans who care so muuuch about 5F’s rating LOL
September 10th, 2012 at 5:36 pm
are u even thinking before saying all those bad words towards Jin Seyeon, she is the best actress and i know she deserves to put in this drama. so stop commenting if u would only put negative things to her, you guys can’t compare how good she is.
Did you see the Gaksital drama she portrayed her role with the talent of being such adorable actress.
September 10th, 2012 at 5:54 pm
The reason why they got lower ratings, because the episode appeared very late i witnessed it last saturday and sunday because i waited for the whole day! not because Jin Seyeon is the main actress instead of EJ….
September 10th, 2012 at 7:14 pm
اینون نونگ عزیز فقط ببین چطوری سریال 5 انگشت داره نابود میشه … خیلی خیلی خوشحالم .. چون گفته بودم بهت که بدون تو این سریال اصلا ارزش دیدن نداره ….. فایتینگ ایون جونگ فایتینگ
September 10th, 2012 at 9:33 pm
I love ji chang wook. He would be the only reason to start this drama, but I don’t like the actress though. I didn’t like her acting in Bridal Mask. Maybe she was overshadowed by the other AWESOME cast and I started to compare her acting with that of Joo Won and Ki Woong, which was incredible. But her acting was lousy.
Does she at least have a likeable personality in this drama? I don’t know if I should start watching this…
September 10th, 2012 at 11:26 pm
despite i’am EJ’s fan, i wish good luck for this drama,it seems interesting and i think that JSY has the right to prove herself , she has innocent and pure face
September 10th, 2012 at 11:33 pm
i’m happy now….good job five fingers
September 11th, 2012 at 5:12 am
f you t-ara you’re all problem….
September 11th, 2012 at 8:35 am
I’m 5 1/2 eps. into this drama and I’m ready to give it up out of boredom. Can’t believe a drama with Joo Ji Hoon and Ji Chang Wook doesn’t sparkle, even though I expected sizzle. Must be the mean-spiritedness of the mother/stepmother and wishy washy spinelessness of the female leads. I can’t help but feel that this script is from a slush pile dated 2002 with injuries substituted for diseases. Sorry
if this sounds angry; I’m really just so disappointed. Maybe it would have been better if the father survived the fire and the mother died in it.
September 11th, 2012 at 10:14 am
kARMA strikes back! haha! the ratings will surely drop even more in the coming episodes..
