The Hyeonsu/Suin relationship is boring even with Chowon. They're the Melancholy Duo. The energy level on the screen when these 2 are on is nil.

I'd start a drinking game for everytime Hyeonsu looks at Suin creepily and she has to ask "What is it?" but I'm recovering from a minor surgery and don't want to complicate things lol. I think I will stick with this one a little longer ,puppy, Minsu got smacked. It's sad that I rejoice over such things but he had that coming.

The best scene last nite -- the cat fight in the Salon. I love Seontae's mother -- it's always so much fun to hear what comes out of her mouth!

Door60! Give HS and Suin budding relationship a chance, they are feeling their way back to each other, thou there is alot of obstacles in the way it will ignite. Chowow eh,eh! Just her presence lets you know trouble is brewing ahead with Mummy Dearest, Chowow , HS and Suin.
As for Sontae's mother, let her vent her time is coming and she will be the laughing stock, as they say like mother like son.

Interesting that "sprint/marathon" reference, pilseung. My idea is that marriage can be both. You hit the ground running then, when tou realize you have a long way to go, you adopt an easier pace. But you're still running!
Minsu and his wife are both kind of infantile, brooklyn, but I like her mother, nice, healthy farm-lady with commom sense.
And last nite! Will this be the first of many near miscarriages to keep us guessing? Or has Suin actually lost the baby which will cut off an entire story line but maybe get the relationship moving a little?
Oh, and one more thing. Hyeonsu tells Suin's dad he has feelings for her then the dad tells his wife, "We have to keep them apart." How can the parents do that if Suin and Hyeonsu work together? And why would they want to anyway? The mom always says she hopes Suin will find a nice man some day. I think the dialog is much richer than the subs. I wish I spoke Korean!

Yessss, that part where the father told hyeonsu to back off kinda threw me. I thought he'd be glad that someone who knows what's going on with Suin is still interested in her in that way. The father should've said to take it very slow, gees. He'll probably transfer Suin to some other department =/.
The whole family setup in the dramas I've seen so far makes me all the more happy that my family isn't traditional Chinese/Korean. I just couldn't see me going through with an 'arranged' marriage or putting up with live-in in-laws. Yikes. Miryeong's mom is fiery and Minsu does deserve some firmness but at times, I thought the mom went overboard, just as Minsu's mom goes overboard.

However,my friends tend to begin with a sprint leading to marriage.Then this is often followed by another sprint...............THE one where they sprint away from each other. The dad turns out to be worried for his daughter from the potential in-laws hostility towards her being pregnant with someone else's child.I reckon many western in-laws would feel the same.

Suin's dad says he's afraid her inlaws will take the kid away from her if they know it's their son's. So why don't they just lie and say she had an affair? Is losing a little face worse than losing a kid?
And what's with lady doc actually listening to her sister-in-law? She must know she has a responsibility to Jisu AND her real mom. I can't believe an educated woman, a professional woman, acts so stupidly. You would have thought college and medical school and working with patients would have modernized her a little.
The money thing is getting scary. I bet Grandpa loses his house.

Yes, I feel he'll lose the house too and his son will be blamed for it, even though sonny boy knows nothing about it.
I really can't stand the rude auntie, younsun or whatsherface. How quickly she says everyone else has no manners and yet look what she did to Jisu's bio mom and look how she treats everyone around her. I can't wait till something happens that greatly humiliates and humbles her.

Tactless,bad-tempered househelp aunt is the worst of all at the moment.I totally agree,she deserves to be taken down a few pegs.The thing is that's she's so thick-skinned and rude,it's gonna have to be one big knock-back to affect her!!

I liked her feistiness in the beginning but she's wearing on me now. I don't see a loving relationship between her and her daughter either. She does the minimum required mothering but it's daddy who seems to provide the love.

I cant believe Jisu's Mom and aunt are afraid of her bio Mom coming and taking her . Jisu is 27 years old, not a baby. She seems the most level headed of all the characters and certainly considers her adoptive Mom her Mom.

I feel there is something more to Jisu's adoptive mom not wanting the real mom to find out about Jisu but the aunt wants to hide it cause she realizes she was wrong all this time for yelling at and beating the bio mom. That tyrant aunt blames everybody in the family for her poor state and thinks they all owe her something.
Minsu is something else, he and his gangster aunt should go live together. I hope his pops is ok and Minsu really ends up in jail.

Why is the Dr's children so selfish and spoil? That motor mouth aunt who really need a good smack down infuriates me by asking why should her father put his house up as collateral before asking her? Then she should of sold the taxi that her brothers wife went into hock for her. Why is the writing so weak? Lots of good relay back presents itself but no one picks up on it and it falls to the side. Minsu manipulation of his wife really get my goad. Why is she so dull? Why is the Mum continuously talking about affairs? I guess its in the works. Minsu is a truly sorry excuse for a man, he is the mirrored copy of motor mouth aunt. Did he go to jail? Is his pops okay? I hope he enters the big house and meet up with "Big Bubba" and he teaches him a lesson in servility. Both siblings [GRAYSON IF I CATCH YOU USING THIS EXPRESSION OR ONE USING THE ROOT WORD AGAIN, I WILL BAN YOU. -Bo] behavior has gone far above and beyond rudeness. Can anyone answer why do they think the world owes them everything? Do they think they are so deserving? One gossips about everyone the other is such downright mean and selfcentered.
