Yeo Jin-goo has been on different variety shows with both Ha Jung-woo, who he considers a mentor, and Sung Dong-il, so they already have a comfortable working relationship. I’m very excited that Yeo Jin-goo is working with them for his first project after taking a hiatus to finish his university degree.
I love Aunt Beom-ja. On the surface she seems like one of the worst characters from a Real Housewives series, but as the drama rolls on she’s proving to be the most humane and *least* dysfunctional of all Hong Hae-in’s relatives.
No way. Her grandpa runs the family and the company like a mafia boss, her father goes along with it, her brother is a toady, none of them have any respect for boundaries. They’re all pretty terrible except for Aunt Beom-ja.
The small town of Geosan in which this drama is set starts out being like Lake Wobegon (but Korean) and takes a dark turn so that by late episode 10-early episode 11 it’s become Fargo (but Korean) and all the while the ML is an escapee from St. Olaf (but Korean).
As a big fan of both Lee Joon-ki and Yeo Jin-goo I had to watch this and seeing tough action hero guy Lee Joon-ki imitate adorable kiddo Yeo Jin-goo’s big beaming smile when he meets the FL is giving me life LOL
I’m finding that this isn’t a sageuk so much as a trashy makjang in period dress and I’m finding it *highly* entertaining. Started watching for Yeo Jin-goo but Jang Geun-suk’s journey from himbo to hero is a delight.
I don’t know how I’m gonna make it when he does army service LOL*sob*
