A daily drama about the crises in the life of a middle-aged couple.

Moon Geun Yuong, also known as Korean little sister, who has not disappointed us in her acting as a child actor as well as in her adult acting career. She was great in Painter of The Wind recently as well as Young Eun Suh in Autumn Tale/Autumn in My Heart in the past. Currently, there is competition going on Between MSOAN and PK for the Best Drama of 2010. It is an undeniable true that MGY is a great actress who has real talent; she doesn’t just depend on her look to get famous. These have proven in her past series as well as the current one (MSOAN). I know for sure that MSOAN is far better than PK in both acting skill and the storylines. I am asking for your vote on MSOAN, and if you have any doubt, Please watch both MSOAN and PK and place your vote.
Thanks all and Happy Holidays.

How I wish that this drama ending with Hae Joo and Dong Tak get married. Its sad to see woman always get the humiliation. I also wish the writer make those cheating couple end up together and suffer. not like “You don’t know woman” when min jung had cancer poor her. The recent episode that I’ve watched Hae Joo seem soft hearted toward the unfaithful husband of hers. Make Hae Joo strong move forward and go on with her life and not clinging to that sly.make her rejuvenate herself start afresh.

I totally agreed with Jering’s view. It sad to see Hye Joo leave Dong Tak and back to the 2x betrayed husband. In some episode, it already understood that love between them gone and Dong Tak is a victim of this relationship. I love Dong Tak’s charactor that really called a MAN! Firm decision and clear direction knowing what he should and shouldn’t to protect the women he love. Too bad, the author want a good ending for the family and make most of the viewer who support Dong Tak sad. I really like Lee Hyung Chul on the role and he really give a life to this charactor. C u soon!

Park Dae Sung and Bae Yumi deserve each other. He is incredibly twisted in his feelings for his ex-wife, but is extraordinarliy gullible and easily manipulated when it comes to a seductress like Yumi. She is incredibly lacking in any sense of ethics and is capble of anything including having an affair with the co-founder of GemKo. Now she’s pregnant from that relationship. Waiting to see if she tries to convince gullible Dae Sung that the baby is his. Can’t wait to see if the co-founder and Bae Yumi go to prison. Hwang Dong Tak’s loyalties will be tested when his ex comes back into the picture. I guess she will give Haeju a hard time as well.

anyone know any website where i can watch this drama online? already missed some episode..huhuhu
November 5th, 2011 at 11:50 pm
i hate Bae yo mi!!!she make me feel so angry!but i hope Hwang Dong Tak and Hae Jo will married.
November 8th, 2011 at 9:16 am
I pray that Hwang Dong Tak and Hae Jo get married – she gave her exhusband so many chances – I feel that Dong Tak and Hae Jo are soul mates they both deserve to be happy – in reality they would get married – children will always come out okay in situations like this – Hae Jo’s heart has been given to dong tak – hae jo’s exhusband shld take this as a learning experience and find someone else – he can still take care and see his children – hae jo and dong tak deserve to be happy – i haven’t missed one episode – i rush home after work to just to watch this soap opera – i have stopped watching my american soap opera – so tell the writers that hae jo and dong tak shkld get married – also mr. song and umi shld be punished for all the bad they did to dong tak and hae jo – i live in hawaii and have been watching ur korean drama’s for 3 months – i enjoy it more than the american drama’s . i hope someday i get to meet some of these actors – they are amazing.
Warmest aloha,

OMG…..Hwang Dong Tak is simply cool! Totally irresistable……he definitely deserve Hae Jo’s love…….hate the ending!!!!
November 16th, 2011 at 11:43 am
It will be marvellous to have another ending…..where Dong Tak and Hae Jo get together…..
November 19th, 2011 at 12:17 am
i wish dong tak will never get hae joo…if hae joo married by the bloodiest dong tak,it called hae jo+dong tak sons= puppies with tae hoon and joon hee ….in malay idioms…
i am very hate dong tak coz he such as a sellfishfullnest of richest man…faces of dong tak can’t give advantage to won hae joo loves…
gentlemen & ladies,
will hae joo falling in love to dong tak, if dong tak not a CEO of GEMKOREA??? Are you sure,if dong tak same level of class by park dae seung,not a VViP, can hae joo falling in love to him(dong tak)????
think about it…..sorry if your conviniences…i talk what i ask to my wife…my wife also agreed to jering’s says…
November 19th, 2011 at 12:34 am
Sad to see the ending that hae joo ended up with her ex-husband in which it should not be. If this is real life do you think it will happen – i don’t think so cos once you divorce you will not go back together and life had to go on and hae joo had found a new love in her life and she should married dong tak who really sacrifice himself for the love of his life. Of course hae joo can give moral support to her ex hubby but to the extend of leaving her heart with dong tak but there she goes off ending by accepting her ex. Really not logical in real life but more on fairy tale story.

I think the writers should take a lesson on how to write a good drama by watching shows like New Tales of Gisang which in my opinion, was the best show this year. Why you ask? Because it was ENTERTAINING to the very end! War of the Roses makes Hae Joo appear to be so pathetic and stupid because none of this would have happened if she didn’t go to see the evil Yumi and cause her ex to save her life. I mean seriously, in the real world what woman would go back to her ex especially after he back stabbed her not once, but twice! As the saying goes, screw me once, shame on you…but twice, shame on me! But then again, this is really a fairy tale because no woman in her right mind would give up having a life of luxury with the man she CLAIMED she was totally in love with and who would give her the life of a queen. Shows like this have turned people I know off to watching Korean dramas…and now me too.

July 16th, 2021 at 11:11 pm

July 30th, 2021 at 12:14 am
Anyone know the ending song this drama…na sarang han dago….lalalallala please…i still not find the song title ending drama
August 6th, 2021 at 10:26 pm
HaeJoo is too soft as a woman. Her X Husband is really really selfish , only think for himself. The writer should make a happy ending taht HaeJoo marry with her bos
August 26th, 2021 at 12:34 am
Think the writer made a good decision to let Hae Ju reunite with her ex husband who had repented for his mistakes. In real life a successful Chairman who is not married will never fall in love with Hae Ju who is married with two big kids and he is still single. Never happen in real life. She is older than him and cannot bear children for Kwang anymore. So writer is correct to let Hae Ju end up with ex husband who had turned into a better husband and willing to die for his ex wife
