It's been awhile, but yeah, that shed...they meet. He talks to her in that weird voice and basically forgives her for abandoning him. And then she leaves him again, and drives off with her granddaughter, I think? It's not a happy ending, it was pretty confusing and made me actually mad enough that I think it was worth knocking 1 and 1/2 points from the movie. Hence I rated it an 8.5/10.

Wait, why are people saying we have to wait two weeks for the next episode? It's not coming out next week? Why?

I love this show more and more with every episode. Every time I think to myself, "It can't possibly get better than this." And then it does....and the innocent people around me are left to wonder why there's a strange girl giggling like a maniac in the corner.

Spoiler Alert: The chaebol part stays confusing all the way through. Family dynamics are not this drama's strong suite. The rest of the drama does have pretty bubbly and cute moments, and definitely one sweeping, original, romantic moment that made me "Awww!" .....But the rest stays pretty generic, boring, and like the person above me said: an annoying use of flashbacks that just served as fillers.

The hardship alone business was soooooo baffling to me. Almost as baffling as him never talking to his half-brother until the very last episode.

I concur. Totally strange and off-putting. I haven't heard anything about them doing a season 2.....It didn't make sense, at all.

The only thing I've not liked about this drama so far: moving the story to the US. I actually hate when dramas do this. I wish the whole story was done in China....everything would be much more realistic and there would be no need to do the odd: You respond in English and I'll respond in Mandarin bit. It's off-putting. If you both understand each other, use just one language. That's what normal humans do. And then there would be no need for "English speaking" actors that are really not that great with acting and/or have a pretty heavy European accent (which brings me out of believing they are supposed to be from the US). I dunno, it's not a big deal in the long run, it's still a great show. I just kinda think the whole "Look! America!" gag doesn't pay off as well as they think. But maybe it's great for their Chinese viewership, so....

I think it has a lot to do with the actors in it (Shin Min Ah & So Ji Sub, because you know....they're fantastic). Unfortunately, when I finish this drama after the subs come out for the next two episodes, I don't think I'll give it a 10 rating.

Haha! Me! It's totally weird. I guess the reasoning behind it is because she's a vet.

So, I'm only on episode 13 right now, but why in the world have Young Joon and Yeong Ho not interacted yet? Aren't they like half-brothers? To be honest, I'm kinda confused by the whole family dynamic and think it isn't being played out to its full potential. :/

Probably because he's not very skilled in English--so they don't want it to seem like one of the greatest minds can't speak coherent, fluent English. Same with all the other actors (except Wallace Huo's sister, she's been the only one to speak English in full sentences). Gotta hand it to Korean dramas, even though the English is usually extremely broken and bad sounding, at least they attempt to make it realistic. lol. I'm actually not sure which one is better.
