It must be really tiring to sub historical drama.
That’s why it takes some time to complete it.

ALL THE YOUNG ARE ACTING VERY VERY GOOD.
March 23rd, 2011 at 5:10 pm
Some how I want Chun Doong and Dal Yi to end up with each other in the end. I like their chemistry better. The drama needs to have more love scenes with all 4 leading characters.
March 24th, 2011 at 1:07 pm
I was just wondering about the development on this drama. The first 8 episodes was quite good because I feel that the story have a good lead but as the characters in the story grew up, I really got confused I was wondering how the character of Dong Nyeo ended up liking GwiDong when it was different then when she was younger, and how did she ended up liking and even getting friendlier to the family of Gwi Dong when she was not like that before.
March 25th, 2011 at 10:05 pm
I like this drama , all actors are good in acting , i love child actors , they are so cute . The storyline is getting more excited and all actors delivering it well.
There is no dump lead characters in here , they are growing up well , it would be nice if Gwi Dong ending up with Dong Nyeo . i think DN loves GD
as she is growing , she respects CD and want him to upgrade his status , our heart changing just as everything else , DN had a crush to CD as a young girl but likely she loves GD and it would be nice if CD ending up with DY .
Lead characters all of them have good heart they will work thing out nicely .I can not way for epi 14 sub .
March 26th, 2011 at 5:52 pm
GUYS AND GALS IF YOU CANT WATCH FROM THIS SITE GO TO http://kimchidrama.blogspot.com/2011/02/duo.html, ENJOYED.
April 3rd, 2011 at 8:08 pm
Just watched Ep 15 and waiting for Ep 16 to be subbed.
I just love historical dramas, moreso if Korean. No expense spared – costumes, acting are all above par.
There is no indication yet on who would end up with who but I am vouching that Chun Dong will end up with the shoe lady in the end.
April 6th, 2011 at 1:37 pm
Love,the drama….
May 19th, 2011 at 9:41 am
I really hate wet nurse and her son , they are only care about themselves, they are unable to differentiate right and wrong , no conscience , especially the wet nurse
May 30th, 2011 at 9:24 am
Bad drama , very disappointed ending , why CD had to die , why he is not becoming powerful merchant who turn I come group to rich merchant group,
makes good use of his money together with his powerful father and his partner GD . CD died , his wife DG is not sure if i come group ideology is right , lord Kim and GD all resigned so who are going to change the society , and the corrupted officers have no one on their way so they could corrupt as much as the want .What is the meaning of this drama ?
As i mentioned before , wet nurse is the bad one , should die in suffering , no body seem feeling sorry for CD at all , they are all stupid or what .
May 31st, 2011 at 10:10 pm
What? Really bad ending.
July 3rd, 2011 at 12:44 am
I love this drama. I love everything about it. It’s a must see. I also love the music. Excellent drama!
July 5th, 2011 at 2:26 am
the ending is a bit sad but still nice.
July 29th, 2011 at 2:35 pm
Good drama, but i dont like ending this drama. A sad story to CD, why he is not happy ending.
October 23rd, 2011 at 11:35 am
