I definitely will watch this drama. Lee Young Ah has come back into acting again since “Iljimae” which is 2 years ago. I am happy again to see her act in this new drama. She must have decided to act in this new drama after taking her english course in England. With her short hair, she looks cute.

omg….why is this show so long??? 36 episodes!!!! hopefully it is nice enough for me to endure 5 months of the same show…

I be watching this for Young Ah, love her!
June 3rd, 2010 at 11:05 am
Yeah, I also agree …why is the show so long? it will drag on and on…
June 4th, 2010 at 8:27 am
Yeah. Before it air we should not judge this drama based on how many episode. Just look The Son of Sol Pharmacy House and Queen Seon Duk both drama (Great Drama without to much dragging last year 2009) have more than 50 episode and people still watch causes the drama itself gain high rating. Please don’t made bad assumption just because it has a lot episode.

This is one show where I want to see more of the child actors, especially the boy playing the role od young Tak Goo. For most other shows with child actors, I can’t wait for the main actors to take over…

After being addicted watching OH! MY LADY starring CHOI SI WON and CHAE RIM with very adorable kid Kim Yoo Bin as Ye Eun,I think this will be an interesting drama to watch next….since it starred with an excellent actress EUGENE…
