another well produced korean drama….
very good actors and well-written storyline
Very long 163 episode/30 min each but well so worth it.
Have a strong family value/morale theme on top of the romantic
comedy feel to it between the two leads. Plus the fact that it
ended on one very happy ever after note. I’m one happy viewer
entertain by this drama…so well worth the buy. (“,)

Another must watch drama – Gumiho – Tale of a Fox child. – The picture look scary but actually the drama is not scary buT exciting. The actors and actresses including the kids all acted very very well.
My Girlfriend is a Gumiho – also very nice. YOU WILL KEEP LAUGHING

i just started watching this & didn’t realize it’s a good one! i just wondered though why the synopsis states she’s a young widow, cld it be that kim nam gil’s character here died early on, i suppose? i can’t wait for the nxt epis.

i’ve been watching this nice drama & each epis gets interesting & i can hardly wait to see Jae hee & geum soon to date officially! she’s one strong young lady & this drama even though it’s lengthy is really worth your while! i’m really liking it, one of the best kdramas i’ve seen! i’m now on epi 90 & counting! 🙂
July 30th, 2011 at 2:38 am
i’m now on epi 147 & i hope this isn’t a spoiler here for what i have to say, but i think geum soon’s parents in law are crossing the line, especially her mom in law, she’s so strict, uptight & this time geum soon got their permission to remarry Jae hee but it seems they don’t want geum soon to have her son when they marry! how selfish can this family be? she’s still young & jae hee is a good man, for goodness sake she may not have another chance to find a perfect match made in heaven….i feel for her! this drama gets better each time, i just can’t get enough of it! one of da best kdramas i’ve seen! it may be lengthy & i’m not one of those who would sit & watch a long drama but this one is exceptional! i highly recommend this if you out there haven’t seen it!
what a good production, PD did a great job & all the actors too!

i’m really impressed with the production of this kdrama, i regret not watching this when i was supposed to (i meant to say while it was still airing)…it may be lengthy but my goodness every minute hour of your time will be worth it! han hye jin & kang ji hwan are great actors, they performed their roles topnotch! what a story, you’ll get hooked just like me, i find myself wanting to go home from work or wherever i am to continue watching this drama! geum soon is a pretty strong young lady fighting for what is right & jae hee what a sweet sweet man, i think geum soon is crazy if she doesn’t fall for him, what more can she ask for i mean he’s handsome, he’s a good doctor & he promises to take care of her son as his own! he’s extraordinary guy! i can go on & on talking about how good this drama is & i intend to buy the dvd for my collection! great great story! loving it to da max!

really really love this drama… you’ve gotta love this drama… really inspiring and romantic at the same time. love all actors characters everyone justified all their roles. 5out of 5. Awesome Awesome.
although it says 163 episodes its OK coz per episode only show 30 mins long.
August 2nd, 2011 at 10:35 pm
@diefan….i cldn’t agree with you any better than that like u said even tho it’s 163 epis yeah it’s only 1/2 hour each time hence it went longer, however every min every hr spent was worth it! i just finished watching & i so love this drama…one of the best i’ve seen in kdramas! the actors all delivered their roles excellently including that child actor who’s super cute & quite good in his role as Hwee san! i luv the happy ending in dramas & this is one that got what it takes! awesome awesome i’m lost in words and now have the urge to buy this dvd 🙂 one prob i have is i’m kinda sad that it’s finished for me kinda withdrawal syndrome experience everytime i watch a drama that’s this good you feel so connected with the story & characters that you’ve gotten used to having them with you for those days/nights you spent watching this! kang ji hwan & han hye ji are awesome & i hope they team up again in the not too distant future! great actors what can i say? on a scale of 1 to 10 i’d give this drama with good PD & actors a whopping TEN (10)!!
I highly recommend this, two thumbs up way way up! i can’t seem to get enough of it! i plan to rewatch it after a few months perhaps 🙂 LOL

Really, really very beautiful drama! One of the best! KANG JI HWAN, as usual, is mindblowing with his acting- humour and all. Same goes for HAN HYE JIN. Grandmother’s words of wisdom to be kept in mind. And TAE WAN, the clown who makes me laugh with his unpredictable behaviour. Though 10 years too late in watching this production(2005), I am so glad I did!!
