"Wife" starting on July 2, 2003

[Michael]

"Wife" (Korean: Anae) will be starting on July 2, 2003.

More information will be provided under Subtitled programs soon.

Here is a brief introduction to the drama:

Sang-jin is married to Na-young and they have a 7 year old daughter, Min-ju. They live with his mom, younger brother, younger sister, and sister's daughter. One day, Sang-jin vanishes while on a business trip. He remains missing for over 7 years until one day he is spotted by his college friend, Hyun-pil, at a ski resort. Min-ju, now 15, sees him as well but she just thinks he looks like her dad. Hyun-pil begins digging and finds out that the man is called Min Young-tae. Young-tae is married to Hyun-ja and they have a 3 year old son, Ung-pyo. Hyun-ja doesn't care about that-- all she knows is that he's her husband and the father of her child. Hyun-pil makes the hard decision to tell the truth to Na-young, to whom he's just proposed. The question is now which man will he live as, Han Sang-jin or Min Young-tae, since each man has a different wife. (by chrissy)

Yeah I'm looking forward to it as well. Uhm Jung Hwa has acted in some stuff before but this will be the first time I see her work in a drama. Yoo Dong Geun plays Sang-jin/Young-tae and I haven't seen him in a while so that'll be interesting. He's a good actor. Lee Yuri (Mi-Ryung in Yellow Handkerchief) works in this drama as well. She plays the girlfriend of Sang-jin's younger brother.

Thank you Michael for the the summary of the new drama wife. I am really looking forward to see what happens in this drama.

Posole, you said that this will be a longer drama. How did you find this out, and how long will it be? I was surprised that Love Letter didn't even last 2 months. Does anyone know what the air times will be for this show yet?

I think Posole got his info from the official site. I don't know exactly how long this drama will be but I can tell you that it's longer than 50 episodes. Love letter didn't last long because it was miniseries. Most Korean miniseries don't last any longer than 20 episodes. Wife will air in Love letter's old time slot starting this Wednesday (July 2nd).

Wednesday - Thursday @ 8 PM

Speaking of series lengths, how long can we expect "Green Prairie" to last? Thanks.

[Posole]

well the total episode count is final~ as "WIFE" ended yesterday in korea... which brings the total to 52 episodes

And as for Green Praire ~ it hasn't ended yet. the latest episode shown in korea was episode 52 (aired on 06/29/2003).

[Lucy]

All right! We're only halfway through at the most. Thanks, Posole!

When I was looking throught the pictures, I had to look at one of them twice. The young girl in the second picture, first row (who also shows up byherself in another picture wearing a white coat) looks freakishly like Sun-joo. I wonder if there is any relation?

Maybe it's the eyebrows or the smile, but she looks like Sun-joo's younger, less attractive sister! ;D
