Every modern drama that i have seen( whether on TV or online) have always had good looking girls in them. After seeing these 4 TV Novels in a row, maybe the top line actresses dont star in them because they are shown in Korea in the AM and not prime time. These girls are definitely the B Team.

This is another TV Novel Drama with 100 plus episodes! ... guys, do not give up on it so soon... we are all trying to figure out who fits in where... Thank God.. they did not take up 25 episodes going thru the child actors as they did in the last one. Yes, Grace.. you are right ..the 12 year old Sammy had spunk!!!!

I think the child actors in the last one were the best part. At least the young Sammy had spunk! As she grew up she always had a deer in the headlights look. I think in EunHee they are making the actresses look plain. Hey when I don't have makeup on...I look "dowdy" too!

I WATCHED LAST NIGHT FOR FIRST TIME!, I liked, I like the cast, love to see again and a regular drama the drunk/gay prince,I like the girl with the braid hair, she is the stalker/chef in Smiled Again, well she wanted to be with Donghae, anyway, I don't understand their relationship, Euhui, Yeongju and Mr Im, I think tese are their names, yet, but it was interesting at least...

Who is the drunk/gay prince? Is he on this show? Wow, I've really missed it.
Anyway, my update. Fake Samsaeng--Eunhui. She has a nice mother. Wouldn't be surprised to see her dead, actually, they never have nice moms.
Fake Jiseong and Fake Dongwu. Fake J is a photographer and fake D is an old friend.
Evil granny--mother of dead guy. Cousin of dead guy--a creep with an idiot wife who's flirting with coffee lady.
Glasses guy--real killer or manslaughterer of dead guy. He has a wife who seems nice. Braid girl--I don't know how she's related, but she's fake Geumok.
On last night's episode: Eunhui was supposed to go to the bank, but was conscripted by Idiot Wife to do the dishes instead, so she never made the cash drop. Dead guy's cousin threw a fit, but the guy with glasses who in fact killed the dead guy but never confessed because of the Korean War, cleared the whole thing up and the bank and/or client forgave him.
Both young men are in love with Eunhui, who is not the slightest bit pretty as done up on the show. The actress may be beautiful with full make-up, but you can't tell here.

poodlepal, the actor that plays the photographer( Mr Im), was the prince in the historical drama the Iron Empress, he was always drunk and had a intimate relationship with a "female dancer", who in fact was a young boy dressed as a girl.... He was in another historical not long ago, with the princes names started by Yeong, he was the guy with braids and a fan with feather in his hands...

asianwiki.com/Lee_InYou are good, latina - I vaguely thought he looked familiar......Ajikai with the fan and braids in Great King Geunchogo as well as others we have seen.....

Yes mara, he even looks younger than years ago... The owner of the market soup place was the old man in Hanbok in Jolly Widow, and his daughter is the oldest daughter of the winery owner in Dear Sister... I don't get this drama, is everybody adopted?, Mr. Cha (looks like a Korean Clark Kent) is the guy who killed Kim Hyeongman ( who is husband of Eunhui' mother), but this Kim H, is the killer of granny's son? , please I so confused!

I thought I would share a news item I came across recently. The headline said "North Korea publicly executes 80 people 'for watching smuggled South Korea TV shows"(http://www.scmp.com/news/asia/article/1353237/north-korea-publicly-executes-80-report) . Nobody can vouch for its authenticity. But the fact remains we have to endure these headlines in 2013 and not in 1950s nor even 1970s which have been the periods the last four dramas reflected the life in these times. I feel bad for ordinary citizens of North Korea the life they have to endure in a bubble created by the dictatorial thugs.

Interesting article, sara79 - thanks.
latina, well, you did miss the first couple of episodes so confusion is understandable - even if you saw them all like me...lol. And you are correct, of course, about the store owner and his daughter - I recognized both of them but couldn't remember from which drama...
Mr. Cha aka Clark Kent, imho accidentally killed granny's son, when the son was trying to choke him. Eunhui's father found the son dying and tried to help, got covered with blood and granny evidently walked in - I don't think we saw this - and he was accused of killing him. Mr. Cha found out and was conflicted about admitting his involvement but was, I think, about to tell the truth, went to the police station where Eunhui's father was - just then as the father was being taken to another prison, he was killed by a bomb. So for all these years, Mr. Cha has felt guilt....hope that helps...

Thanks, mara It helps a lot!, so how granny doesn't know that Kim H,("her son's killer") died? , Ohhh!, because the war???, I think when they were on their living room talking to that guy(guest) he asked about him been alive or dead, and granny didn't seem to know he died.... sara79, thanks for that info, unbelievable that something like that can happened

sara79, I also had seen that article, and realized again how lucky we are to live here in the US! Those poor people, yet their "leader" looks at western movies and basketball all the time, so hypocritical!
Its going to be soon that he finds out that the girl he hired is his friends daughter. He tried several times to tell the truth but always something seems to interfer. Its going to be too late to tell now, he'll lose everything and his poor wife and daughter will pay for his mistake. He should have said it in the beginning when it happened and show the marks on his neck but I guess he was desperate to keep his son alive.

Mara, the store owner was in " Jolly Widows" and the daughter was in "Bokhi" and was married to good for nothing son-in-law much like the character we have in the current drama. If you recall the young "Bokhi" used to carry her baby son on her back all the time. She was a big time moocher.!!!!

Not much of a spoiler but I started a thread for future spoilers....
