Astept cu mare nerabdare.

Another drama where the male lead actor real age is 10+ years older than the female lead actor. Why the great age difference? Is this the norm in dramas?
November 11th, 2017 at 2:55 pm
I believe the scheduling is two one-hour episodes back to back on Saturdays, beginning November 11, 2017. Not the usual Saturday/Sunday airing schedule.
November 12th, 2017 at 6:00 pm
My first impression about this drama :
Jang hyuk acting is really good .
The other cast is really bad .
The story is good , if you like serious drama .
Park se young acting is just same from her acting at whisper , her eyes is just have same character . She is not fit to be first lead women .
The second lead male is really bad .
Lee Soon Jae is not fit to acting to be a chairman , even the acting is really good .
November 13th, 2017 at 12:27 am
The plot takes on a twist and it’s only episode 2! This is bad boy Jank Hyuk in his perfect role as the smart rich family lawyer that is playing the whole family as he threads his revenge! Excellent!
November 18th, 2017 at 11:13 pm
Jang Hyuk never disappoints!
November 19th, 2017 at 2:39 pm
It has intrigue, along with the lifestyle of the rich. Then throw in revenge to flavour this engaging drama.
Jang Hyuk is manly. Park Se Young is lovely as always. What more could one ask for but to sit back and enjoy.
November 21st, 2017 at 9:43 pm
Very intense and interesting- Jang hyuk still as good, Park Seyoung is so pretty- well matched
November 24th, 2017 at 7:36 am
Love those generic descriptions that tell you nothing about the characters – “is a good listener and laughs a lot”. Yeah, that tells me a lot about her.
November 26th, 2017 at 5:26 pm
Been fast-forwarding watching the recent dramas
Until this one… don’t want to miss any second
Jang Hyuk shows his best acting yet again
The Ratings should move up to 2nd at least
November 26th, 2017 at 6:01 pm
I just watched the first 2 episodes and I have abab feelings about this drama
Why they made us love the lead actress idpf the writer want to use her as a tool I can’t understand how can I cheer someone sekk his love !!
And she kissed that stupid rich from thier first meeting ,
I dont thinknthis is my cup of tea , what do u think , they will end up being lovers or enemies ? And she will marry that stupid kid or not ?
December 2nd, 2017 at 8:13 pm
The rating looks good. I like both Jang Hyuk and Se Young, it’s great to see them in the drama.
December 10th, 2017 at 3:56 pm
Phew! Finished watching Ep10. Emotional drama. Good story and good production.
Na Mo Hyun stipulated the new terms of their marriage after learning of her scumbag husband’s other woman and child. Artificial insemination means no sex for Boo Chun. And I think she’s going to fall for Kang Pil Joo now that she’s about to find out who he really is; the guy she saved from drowning and who was always at the back of her mind the whole time, before soy-boy Boo Chun.
Looking forward to the next episodes.
December 10th, 2017 at 4:03 pm
I hope kang pil joo can be happy with na mo hyun soon.. enough torture heart kang pil joo.. 😭😭😭
December 11th, 2017 at 5:37 am
Ok so am in love with the story and the actors are all amazing .there is still one thing I can seem to answer my self I don’t know if am reading the signs and body language properly so I need a second pair of eyes to tell if am reading the body language and all the little touches properly .
My question is I know with story line this makes no sense but is kang pil joo by ant chance sleeping with Boo chan mum because I mean the way they each hold and sometimes touch each other one will think the have sexual thing going on or at least might have done so in the pass I don’t know if am the only one thinking that way?but then I know he hates the woman but I also know he the guy who will do every thing and any thing to get his revenge.
December 17th, 2017 at 8:41 pm
it only leaves you wanting more …story 10/10…cast 10/10 and acting definitely up to par ……the writer’s impression comes off perfectly in your mind ….but slight warning …it’s not a rom com …..but of allllll my dramas …this is my mosttttt favouriteeee
December 17th, 2017 at 10:57 pm
Yeah this drama is not predictable like most I watch .li mean this writer is amazing .i did not see that sucide coming yesterday!!!!!!OMG !!! I mean this family is crazy .i mean how manipulative and wicked can they be .i pray Kang pil destroys every single one of them from grandfather to every one .love the show love it !!!!!
December 18th, 2017 at 8:29 pm
So far finished episode 10. NICE 😛
December 18th, 2017 at 11:44 pm
Jang Hyuk is an excellent actor. He definitely deserves an award for his role in Money Flower.
December 27th, 2017 at 10:23 pm
i like this series. it’s much better than a series aired years ago about power and greed between relatives. what is interesting here is someone is manipulating/stirring the lives of people without their knowledge.
December 28th, 2017 at 4:19 pm
pres jang and son want to kill pil joo, exec. jung wants to kill mo hyun, so at ep 14, who was/were in the car that hit the post and caught fire?
January 8th, 2018 at 1:45 pm
RISE MONEY FLOWER RISEEEEEEEE!!!!! MUAHAHAHA
January 10th, 2018 at 3:29 pm
why do most of the characters speak so slow as if every word said is calculated? i prefer listening to the chairman and his mistress as they seem to be the normal people in this series.
February 3rd, 2018 at 5:22 pm
tonight’s last two episodes should be interesting. how long will pil joo hold chairmanship when cong. na is going to reveal the truth? let’s see if pil joo has trump cards to protect himself.
February 4th, 2018 at 3:40 pm
cool drama!!
February 5th, 2018 at 8:45 am
Super! A meritat fiecare minut.
February 6th, 2018 at 6:01 pm
first drama i’ve watched that jang hyuk did not do his crazy laugh. he’s serious all the way. it’s a good watch (except for delivery of lines by few actors which is really boring!!!), but gee what pil joo had to go through for 20 years to get his revenge. so the rich can do illegal stuff to climb and stay on top, but the lesson is one cannot keep his secrets all by himself, all the way, or repercussions can be astounding and fall is instant.
March 23rd, 2018 at 6:24 am
Anothet good drama of jang hyuk again, indeed , he is really a good actor. I love the story, good job to the writer and director. The role of kang pil joo is realyy good and fit by jang hyuk. About the leading lady pls improve your acting your emotion only one side , do more workshop on acting. In over all kang pil joo brought all the story. Good job jang hyuk you never fail us your fans with your acting…. from philippines. Its highly recommended drama it feels when you watch it you can never stop watching til the end….
April 23rd, 2018 at 1:38 pm
Actually I do not really like this drama , and find it ridiculous in many ways. There is no such thing that if you loves a woman and you would sacrificed and helped a friend to succeed to be up higher. I have not finished watching but Jang Hyuk in this drama I should say among so many this is one of the unexpected Jan Hyuk you ever watched in all his past dramas.
I normally will download good dramas that made you emotional, romantic, revenge, etc but not this one. Hope the ending will be good
October 25th, 2019 at 12:26 am
A truly amazing drama! Melodrama at its finest! A wonderful story that was gripping all the way though. And Jang Hyuk gave such an impressive and phenomenal performance that I was left in awe. He was meant for this role. If you like revenge melos that are executed to near perfection, this is a must watch 🙂
