This drama is boring. I started watching and skipping parts already. Who cares about maid’s life? The main guy has no charm and his acting are not good. Supporting guy character is useless. SYR is cute as always but no one can understand what her character is after in this messy storing about rich households bed stories with maids. Very disappointing.

Watched to the second episode. The storyline could be interesting but I find that SYR’s character is confusing. Too much yelling for simple matters. I like both SYR and JGW’s acting in other dramas, therefore I watch this drama, but can’t find myself liking it to the second episode. I think I’ll watch it only when there’s no other interesting drama to watch for.

romance town so pretty and funny. Yuri’s changed was success. to gra to you my angel . saranghae sung yuri ^_^

For those who find Jung Gyu Woon not so charming. FYI, I also have this kind of feeling at 1st.
But now I like him
He is a kind a person – the more you see him, you will feel that he is a charming man after all in his own style & looks.
I like him in Dr Champ.
As for Loving you a Thousand times drama – He also have built up many faithful fans from there who really likes / crazy about him.
For me, I have not watch yet becoz its a sad drama but its a good ending.
Hope you viewers will like JGW soon. Cheers

What is Min hyo rin role? Is she the 3rd love interest or something??
June 13th, 2011 at 9:10 am
@ 56 Suzy
Min Ryo Rin works for m2 Kim Ming Joon as a maid. She is 12 years younger than her boss. She is interested in m2 but m2 finds her too young for him.
m2 Kim Ming Joon wants to woo g1 Sung Hyo Ri becoz he found out that she is very rich lady who can even afford to buy an apartment with CASH upfront – no installment. (g1 strike lottery – she has to keep it a secret becoz her dad is a gambler & also other unnecessary trouble)
g1 is interested in m1 Jung Gyu Woon – her boss’s son.

gun woo gun woo gun woo….OMG this guy.he is really a hunk.
June 16th, 2011 at 9:29 pm
I love JGW. But i like him better in ‘Dr. Champ’ and in ‘Loving you a thousand time’ ;”)

Ep 13
This drama is getting better and better. It let you think – can poor maid end up with rich man’s son. I don’t think so. My personal opinion – only money can give you some guts to go ahead to fall in love with someone rich & handsome.
When you really strike lottery like billions of dollars, will you behave like these maids here ?? scheming & calculative
Next round, remember to pay for your betting 1st if not you will end up like one of the maid here. ha ha… empty handed.

ep 14
Watch those maids hiding the money in the hotel and put the sign – DO NOT DISTURB – damn angry. Really naive & stupid.
Now the money is gone…………….
Can’t they put some money inside the bank 1st?
June 25th, 2011 at 11:15 pm
This show kind of wreid …not sure wat is going on ? =s

Great drama! NO Soon Geum is my favorite character in this drama. she really is a great actress. I love this drama because it shows the gap between people. it shows how rich people treat their maids and other people. It is one of the best movies I have ever seen!!!
June 28th, 2011 at 12:31 pm
i think this drama is possible, some of them they said its not compatible for the maid and richman son, i dont think so coz if your inlove dont hesitate go on follow your heart coz God choose them for each other.
June 28th, 2011 at 12:37 pm
i hope in real life SYR and JGW they look good together i’ve watch one of their interview SYR always teasing JGW, maybe she treat her like her younger brother, but i like their chemistry, and i cant help to laugh their film making on the hospital SYR always looking JGW butt lol.and he tease that maybe she like his butt thats why.
June 30th, 2011 at 7:54 pm
i don’t know why don’t they put the money in the bank?? and at 1st…they can’t recognize the maid after she make up?? HUH??? tht is really impossible ok….hmm… don’t really like this drama….at 1st kinda like it… but now the interest towards this drama is gone….
June 30th, 2011 at 9:51 pm
i love gun woo and soon geum…

Just finish ep 16. The story is very interesting & exciting. Lead actress deserve the 75 billion won and the apartment she bought & the maid with 2 kids deserve the 10 billion.
The other 3 maids – did not give out what they have promised to give should end up nothing.
Still better to trust money than man.

This drama is indeed weird..Its supposed to be a romance comedy.. but its not really romantic neither isit funny.. why why why??? wats going on???
July 8th, 2011 at 4:11 pm
what’s the drama all about???? but i always count on sung yu ri
all her drama is great……
July 12th, 2011 at 7:37 pm
The drama is all about money instead of romance. So “Money Town” suits well as the title
or “Lottery Town”. Nothing is of comedy here. I find it quiet disappointing as I like both SYR and JGW. There are left with two more episodes for this week. I keep watching only because of the lead actors are among my fave. I’ll give it low rating among other dramas airing at the same time as this one.

I just keep watching this drama because i like both lead actor & actress,
but the story line is not that interesting…
