So these two were former high school classmates. I'm sensing there is a lot of history between these two characters ! Who is this Hyun-soo character? When Sang-hyuk's dad went to see Min-hyung's mom backstage before her performance, he asked her if she knew about Hyun-soo's death. Hyun-soo had died 16 years ago. Min-hyung's mom didn't know about this and was very shocked to find out that Hyun-soo died. Does anyone know who Hyun-soo is

HyunSoo is Yujin's dad. They were all friends in high school. Yujin's dad, Sanghyuk's dad and Minhyung/Joonsang's mom. Sanghyuk's dad was in love with Minhyung's mom, but she loved HyunSoo. Now the mystery is who fathered Minhyung/Joonsang. HyunSoo OR Sanghyuk's dad?

Thanks Alexa ! I hope it is Sang-hyuk's father that is Joon-sang/Min-hyung's father and NOT Yu-jin's father because I want Joon-sang/Min-hyung and Yu-jin to be together !

Me too Sanghyuk gets on my nerves Good thing I have this Board to vent of my anger about these characters. Yesterday I tried talking to one of my friends about Sanghyuk, and he was looking at me like I was crazy. (my friend doesn't watch any Korean dramas) I get to emotional with these dramas.

so glad because he gets on my nerves too.... and what's with Yujin's mother... 'love isn't everything'.... maybe not when you're breeding puppies, but in marriage it's pretty important. At times I forget these people are actors ... I guess they're very good because they can get us so unnerved!

I know, that scene made me crazy, too ....doesn't Yujin's mother even care at all that her daughter will be miserable for the REST of her life is she marries a man she doesn't love!?!?! Aaaakkkk!

Well, sorry to spoil the fun.... but, Yu-gin's mother is speaking from her own experience. Although Mi-hee loved Hyun-soo, he didn't love herwhen he met yu-gin's mom, and married her instead of mi-hee ... But... it still made her uneasy that Hyun-soo had a past relationship with a woman....

But... it still made her uneasy that Hyun-soo had a past relationship with a woman.... Well I still don't see how that affects the way Yujin's mom feels. Yujin's mom loved Hyun-soo and he loved her right? They both loved each other, got married. Yujin doesnt love Sanghyuk, so why should she marry him? Her mom should want her to marry the man that she loves. Besides she doesn't even know Minhyung, so she cant judge him. I understand that she feels like Yujin and Sanghyuk have known each other their entire lives and she must feel that Sanghyuk is the best candidate for her daughter as a husband. BUT she is not looking at her daughters feelings, her daugther's happiness. I'm pretty sure that Yujin's mom feels like this is for the best, but how can she, Yujin doesn't love Sanghyuk!!!!!!!!! Where is the love? And Yujin's friends, don't get me started on her friends. Jinsook, and the Vet, they were all mad at her for breaking up with Sanghyuk. I understand they are all friends and it's hard to take sides. But man, don't they understand that Yujin doesn't want to be with Sanghyuk? Jinsook should've been more understanding. I mean what happens between Yujin and Sanghyuk is there business. It's their relationship. And if Yujin wanted to leave Sanghyuk, Jinsook should've respected her decision, instead of looking at her like she was dissappointed.

That triangle-theory doesn't quite fit if Yujin's mother is the one being taken into account.
It would, however, explain why SH's parents were uneasy, but only if they had known about her relationship with Joonsang. Then she would have been the one with a past. (How much do you want to bet that Sanghyuk's never told them about him/her past and to him they've always been dating?)

The one thing that can be said for Yu-jin's mom is that she is concerned that Yu-jin made a promise that she is refusing to keep, and the mom does not understand her daughter's reason.
Also, all of Yu-jin's friends saw how miserable she has been over the past 10 years after Joon-sang died, and they have been grieving over her pain when they thought Sang-hyuk would be perfect for her. And really, up until recently, he's been pretty perfect. Then, this new guy shows up and she's miserable again. How can we expect them to react? I think it's understandable.
Finally, Yu-jin is not very forthcoming with her feelings. She hides everything. It's easy to try to ride roughshod over a person like that, when you really are just trying to help them.

Finally, Yu-jin is not very forthcoming with her feelings. She hides everything. YUGIn NEEDS TO BE MORE OPEN WITH HER FEELINGS. KOREAN PARENTS WILL TRY THEIR BEST TO UNDERSTAND WHY YOU CAN'T MARRY THE SPOUSE OF YOUR WISH WHEN YOU ACTUALLY TAKE THE TIME TO EXPLAIN YOUR POINT OF VIEW TO THEM. I MEAN, SHE COULD BE WITH mh, A THAT WOULD FOLLOW HER TO THE GRAVE IF NEED BE, BUT INSTEAD SHE CHOSE sh, WHO WOULD RATHER HER GO FIRST THAN HIM OR HIS MOTHER! grr! HOW I DESPISE THAT WOMAN! ATLEAST YUGIN'S MOM IS NOT THAT MANIPULATIVE.

.... KOREAN PARENTS WILL TRY THEIR BEST TO UNDERSTAND WHY YOU CAN'T MARRY THE SPOUSE OF YOUR WISH WHEN YOU ACTUALLY TAKE THE TIME TO EXPLAIN YOUR POINT OF VIEW TO THEM... Hey, Bae, you don't have to shout! I agree with you. (I don't think that Korean parents are monsters. Just that they don't take breaking an engagement lightly--nor should they.) This is precisely Yu-jin's problem; she does not make her true feelings known. She started out by lying to Sang-hyuk when he was just trying to figure out what was going on with her. A little bit of honesty might go a long way with this girl. Bo

Isn't an engagement in Korea pretty much an indicator that this deal is going to happen? The engagement ceremonies sometimes seem more elaborate than the wedding ceremony. So I understand Bo's point about Yujin honoring her family and keeping the promise to marry SH.
However, this isn't 50-60 years ago when it would bring unimaginable shame to her family or they are some poor farming family and need a new son in law to help out w/the farm work, etc. It's just really hard for me to understand why any parent (especially a mother!) would still force her child to marry when she's said that she doesn't love SH. That would be enough, should be enough. No wonder 50% of marriages in S. Korea end up in divorce. I think part of them are still bound by their traditions but they are being exposed and influenced by a Western mindset.

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!! Thats what I said. I mean Yujin doesn't love Sanghyuk at all. Why does she put up with his crap? He is so manipulative and selfish. When you love someone you have to know when to let go! Just thinking about Sanghyuk is making me mad Anyways Yujin really can't blame anyone for her choosing Sanghyuk. I mean yes she's falling for his schemes but she still has the choice to leave him. And I think in todays times, it would be more understandable for her leaving her fiance, then it would've been centuries ago.
