Stop saying how nice it is and all, if you people watched the series already please post how you watched over here and help others who are in need. Your comments just make me sick about how ‘boastful’ you people are.

can you repost this drama?

It is aired on Ch 8 over (Singapore) Mediacorp TV @ 11pm daily. I didn’t get to watch from the beginning as I am only a recently converted KD fan. I cried and laughed and cried over and over again feeling the pain the wives had to go through for their man and their families. Read : Nasty In-Laws!
I am blown away by the role Lee Sang Woo played as such a devoted lover in this dramatic soap.. *swoon*
I hope I don’t miss any episodes from now to the end. Anyone knows where to watch this with English subtitles? Thought of blazing through how the show first started. Many thanks.

@ Woah: Don’t wait for people to post the show….go JB buy the DVD….cheap & good!

I noticed in Ep 18, Sung-Ho’s real mother lived in the house that Cha Dol’s real mother lived in. Sung-Ho’s real mother played Ah Sussana’s mother, the girl that when she went on a date with Jo Na-Dan, her paren
ts were in the restaurant telling her how to act. I have seen that lady in several shows, mostly small parts.
I have 2 episodes left to see.
