i have to stay awake for about three hours more than my regular sleeping time just to watch this series, it helps me to appreciate the things i have esp my family. somehow it shows the nude truth that sometimes we more than appreciate material things than our family.:(

I am not a korean novela fanatic but when I watched this drama in youtube, I can’t help myself but praise this drama. It made me laugh, made me cry and made me learn a lot of things (sasanim Jang Sook Ja rules). I can’t wait to see Lee Seung Gi and Han Hyo Joo together for their upcoming novelas…
