She's not his grandma, she's his mom.

I don't think Ina's mother wanted suicide. She was just distracted after seeing her husband disappeared again to the past and the light blinded her at the end of the tunnel.

When she said that she and Ina will leave if her husband kept on disappearing, I am pretty sure that she just wants to leave him, not suicide.

So Ina's power is that she can read other people's minds by seeing through their eyes?

Is that the reason why she is very introvert, can't get along with her friends and avoid eye contact?

I was pleasantly surprised to see my favourite child actor and actress in the first two episodes: Park So-yi as Ina, Ahn Se-bin as the girl on the beach who lost the bunny doll, Moon Woo-jin as Ina's classmate, and Ki So-yu as the younger version of Ina.

The plot is a bit weird though in the first two episodes, hopefully it'll be getting better in the next episodes.

Congratulations Yuna for the Baeksang Best New Actress award! You deserve it.

She deserved it. Congratulations!

EMaGr - if what you said is true, it means that Hyun-sung is Woo-ri's brother? Or half-brother, at least.

Kevin - I agree with you on (1). About (2) and (3), how do you know those? :)

I am at episode 19 now and I am very confused. I think this is one of the KDrama I watched with a lot of complexity in the family trees and relationships lol lol.

OK, first, we have the Jin Jang-Soo family. Jang-Soo had a wife, Sun-Young, and a daughter, Soo-Kyung (now known as Su-Ji). Sun-Young had a friend, Yoon-Ja, who came to the family looking for a housekeeping job together with her little daughter, Na-Young. Jang-Soo had an affair with Yoon-Ja which made Sun-Young upset, and she left for work and planned to collect the daughter in 2 weeks. However, Sun-Young had an accident at work and her family couldn't contact her when she was at the hospital, and she lost her daughter Su-Ji to her father. Jang-Soo married Yoon-Ja, took Su-Ji and Na-Young with him, and had another son with Yoon-Ja, which is Do-Young.

Jang Family:

Bok-Sun (Jang-Soo's mother, Su-Ji and Do-Young's biological grandmother)
Jang-Soo (Su-Ji and Do-Young's father, Na-Young's stepfather)
Sun-Young (Jang-Soo's first wife, Su-Ji's biological mother)
Yoon-Ja (Jang-Soo's second wife, Na-Young and Do-Young's mother, Su-Ji's stepmother)
Su-Ji (Jang-Soo and Sun-Young's daughter, Do-Young's half-sister)
Na-Young (Yoon-Ja's daughter with an unknown ex-husband)
Do-Young (Jang-Soo and Yoon-Ja's son, Su-Ji's half-brother through father, Na-Young's half-brother through mother)

Now let's go to the courtyard restaurant. Sun-Young is now the chef there, and she lives together with Jung-Soon (not too sure what's the relationship, but Sun-Young call her Unnie) and Woo-Chang, Jung-Soon's brother. Sun-Young has two stepchildren, Woo-Ri (stepson) and Doo-Ri (stepdaughter). There's also the little girl A-Ra, who is not related to them by blood either since she was left there by her biological mother, but she calls Sun-Young mom, Woo-Chang as the dad, and Jung-Soon as the grandmother, so I presume the so-called "family" adopted her. As of episode 19, Woo-Chang had a love interest with Sun-Young but she didn't reciprocate because of her guilt in losing Su-Ji.

The Court Yard Restaurant "Family":

Sun-Young (the head chef of the restaurant, Woo-Chang's love interest, and Su-Ji's biological mother)
Jung-Soon (whom Sun-Young call "unnie" or big sister)
Woo-Chang (Jung-Soon's brother)
Woo-Ri (Sun-Young's stepson, calling her mom)
Doo-Ri (Sun-Young's stepdaughter, calling her mom)
A-Ra (a girl left in the restaurant by her biological mom, supposedly Sun-Young's stepdaughter)

Then there's the director Han Jin-Tae's family, who is the director of the hospital, his wife Ma-Ri, who is the director (or owner) of the hospital's foundation and the daughter of the late founder of the hospital, and Hyun-Sung, their son who dated Su-Ji when they were in college.

Director Han Family:

Jin-Tae (father)
Ma-Ri (mother)
Hyun-Sung (son, who has a love interest in Su-Ji)

Correct me if I'm wrong lol.

The writing goes down the drain on episodes 13-14, predictable plot at the end of episode 14. But I still love both the leads. The acting is incredible!

Ah ok, thanks for the info. There is a flashback scene when little Haein sat at the back of the car with her mom, she tried to hold her mom's hand but she rejected her. I thought that was a scene when the mom picked her up from an orphanage lol, my bad.

There were also some flashback scenes when little Hae-in and her brother were playing at the orphanage as well, together with little Eun-Song and little Da-Hye.

I am watching up to episode 10 now. Is Hae-in the biological daughter or adopted daughter of her mom (Seon-Hwa)? I really can't stand how her mom treats Hae-in like trash, unlike how she treats her son. I don't see any maternal love at all from the mom towards the daughter, making me think Hae-in might be her adopted daughter instead of her biological daughter.

Does anyone know? Can put a spoiler if needed.

I am at Episode 7 now and I love this drama. OMG, I love the ML and especially the FL. Their acting is on the next level. I really hated the Hae-in character in the first 2 episodes but came to love her more and more in the next episodes. And the secrets revealed slowly on each of the episodes just want me to keep on watching more.

Have to be honest, the plot and storyline are not really that good, but the acting performance of all the actors is outstanding, especially the FL Seo Hyun Jin. The last scene with her daughter at the hospital, when she couldn't even remember her daughter's name and asked for her name, is particularly heartbreaking.

The ending is very vague with a lot of unresolved issues. Will the ML (the FL's dad) recover? Will she (the FL) recover (I don't think so)? Presuming that the FL's ex-husband has to go back to America afterwards, who will take care of the young daughter, and how a little girl that young will be able to take care of both her mom and her grandfather in such a state?

The pace of the movie is very fast, so we can see that the FL's condition deteriorates very quickly. Therefore we cannot really "feel" the progress of the illness and everything feels rushed. It may be good to make the movie duration a bit longer (or maybe make it a drama like "Oh My Geumbi") so we can feel more attached to the FL's situation.

Overall, a great movie.

Episode 11 is epic. Episode 15 seems to be the finale. Episode 16 is more like a filler to me.

Great great acting from everyone, especially the ML and FL. Also the reporter and the ML's sister. Also the main villain. Even the little daughter acts very well for her young age.

Great story with unpredictable plot twists. There are some unreasonable plot holes but still acceptable.

Great series, highly recommended.

Thanks for the info! Yes, watching this now, a bit slow because quite busy.

Wait, so a season 3 is already confirmed?

Yes watching season 2 (the 1938) now, thanks for the info.

There's possibility that Bale didn't know, and Jinman launched a surprise attack on Bale after using Jian as bait for all the mercenaries to target her (thus making Bale more vulnerable to attack).
