I have only watched the first three episodes and haven't the foggiest of what is going on.....Tae InJoon runs a shoe company and is a second generation chaebol...I guess there are other companies as well. His step-brother seems to be in competition with him...that sounds familiar. Plus the former boyfriend of InJoon's fiance also has a big company....The fiance who likes to slap people is quite a b---- and doesn't seem to think it will be a marriage of convenience...where else have we seen this...lol.... Both Goo HaeRa and Jin TaeO have ill relatives in hospital. I don't understand why the fiance, Cha SooHyun, seems to think HaeRa is a prostitute....anyway it should become clearer over time....

So I am up to date - basically this has all the usual plots - a disfunctional chaebol family - the elder son is illegitimate and his mom and younger sister live with the Chairman. It is vague what happened to the second son's mother at this point but evidently the stepmother didn't allow him to do her memorial service..
Then the family ? with HaeRa and the friend and her son, I think....and HaeRa's older sister in the coma.
Also we have Jin TaeO and his ex, Cha SooHyun, the announcer who is mother of the sick little girl and who is now engaged to chaebol son Tae InJoon....
So we have illegitimacy, family issues and many secrets and lies... ;-)

Episode 19-20 - when he goes back to his apartment Cha SooHyun is there reading - not the first time she came in unannounced - why doesn't he change the entry code??
I wonder what the grandma would have done to Jenny if SooHyun didn't intervene -sad for a young child to be treated like that...
The man that helps HaeRa - I thought he was sort of a gangster but he said something about being a detective...maybe in his past...?

.... on Tuesday 3/26 which is right before you leave so just pick out two shows to watch while you are away-- we can watch them one at a time . Actually I leave on Thursday......I put another bunch of dramas on the Future Drama thread when you were gone....have you looked? See if any particularly appeal to you? Hopefully I shouldn't have a problem downloading them - I've finished downloading the episodes of this one that are scheduled after I leave....

How about Partners For Justice, Queen of Mystery 2 or anything else that looks good to you.

Partners for Justice/Investigation Couple sounds good but for some reason the Queen of Mystery is not on my app where I download...first time that happened - so that can wait til I come home. So how about Sweet Spy instead.?

Sweet Spy sounds good. So many of them sound good---Signal, The Ghost detective, Bad papa, Heart Surgeons, etc.

This is a little slow but I like it. One more week to go and Hae Ra has to find out that it was the older bro with her sis, not In joon. I hope that in the last few episodes the bullied DIL go nuts and spills all the secrets. The one time that I bought soju, it was in a liquor store on LI. Lee Min Jung was on the advertisement and I recognized her and said "Lee Min Jung" to the KOrean store owners and they laughed. She really is pretty.

Yes, she is very pretty....I really don't know why she suspects InJoon since she knows how nice and considerate he is and not the type to try to kill someone....at least that's how I see him. Also doesn't she know he just got back to Korea when her sister went into the coma - so how could he have been involved with her?
The older brother is a piece of work for sure - and he seems to need the nasty mom to make the slightest decision - oh ma, oh ma....lol....
I wonder who wrote that letter that SooHyun found - I don't think we were told that...

I'm a little behind but will finish on time. In the episode when InJoon was arrested and sent to prison - it seemed the only evidence was the hospital bill he signed and the photo of him and HaeRa's sister....seems like a good lawyer would have gotten the charges thrown out. And the white truck of death with the Uncle..seems like there has been a lot of deaths in this one....

Yes there was very little evidence that he ever knew Coma Sister. The uncle knew the truth, why didn't he testify?
