Did every body else know PI was on early today? I tuned in to check reception, and it was just ending!  What's going on with the scheduling lately? Can anyone catch me up? I'd appreciate it. (Mysoju is not an option for me, sorry.)

Just by chance, I flicked through stations, and happened to catch this at 6:00, thereby missing half the show. It seems program scheduling is getting worse instead of better. There's also a change in Hang Gil Dong this week.

Just when I thought I'd put my recording problems with this show behind me . . . I checked my recorder this morning, and there was only the last twelve minutes. Guess a trip to Family Video is in order.

I had a feeling something was amiss when the Open Concert was already in progress at 4:40PM......needless to say, I did get to see the entire show but I was in the middle of preparing my meal to be eaten at 6PM (so as not to interfere with my concentration whilst viewing) so I missed some of the finer subtleties. Fortunately, we can all catch the episode here www.mysoju.com/They have also just posted the daily series Likeable or Not, as well as offering full length Korean movies, Japanese and Taiwanese media [glow=red,2,300] absolutely free of charge[/glow] ;D Zorro, I just read the ending lamentation of your post. If you, or anyone else happens to be still using a dial up connection on your computer, this might not be a viable option for you, but you could go to your local library and watch the episode on their fast connection. Otherwise, I/someone might be able to provide a brief synopsis before next Sunday. Zorro, I apologize for leaving this until last minute, but I will watch the episode tonight and post the summary tonight; it was a rather slow episode so don't worry about having missed any major action. Again sorry for the delay but I will get to this after I watch tonight's episode of Mom's Dead Upset. Thanks for your patience.

Ha Ha Ha!!!!!! After watching and summarizing episode 12, I realized that we have just watched episode 13 and to make it even more special, parts 2-4 will not load for viewing!  So, after watching the first part and jostleing some brain cells awake, here's what I can remember from last week, at least the important parts. InSoon sees her mother's press conference on TV and runs away but the public has already begun to turn against her as they feel she was dishonest for not freely admitting to being an ex-con sent away for murder (which she didn't commit but was too poor to properly defend herself through the legal system). The family of the girl posts a rebuttal letter on the web stating their shame of not forgiving In Soon sooner and the possibility that their daughter had some kind of congenitive defect which probably lead to the premature death of their daughter. I think later on there was some more controversy surrounding the family of the dead girl as In Soon's mother attempted to give them some money to compensate for their hardship and totally ends up offending them. There was more to do with Sang Woo's dad's infatuation with In Soon's mom and I do believe everyone involved has full knowledge as to the identity and relationship of In Soon, her mom, Sang Woo and his dad; Sang Woo's mom is livid and disbelieving. At the very end, In Soon's step brother drunkenly confesses to Sang Woo that it was, in fact, he that caused the girl's death after the scuffle with In Soon. After In Soon left the scene of the fight (and I believe the other girl was down), the brother picked up a rock and threw it at the prone girl, striking her in the head and killing her. The brother demands that Sang Woo call the police and have him arrested. That's about how it ended. Hope that helped and happy viewing tonight (you might try tuning in around 5:15 just to play it safe; in case you didn't read the post, there is some confusion on my part as to the exact start date of Emperor of the Sea, which is the show replacing In Soon, but I don't know how that could happen on June 1st if there are 3 more episodes to go on this show......)

Thanks, Captain.
It turns out yesterday's was the last episode of the series. I still had some reception issues, so couldn't follow everything "said".
Not sure what to think about this one overall. It was interesting early on, but then seemed to meander somewhat.
You say Emperor of the Sea is next?

Yes, Emperor of the Sea is the next show. If you happen to go to Mysoju, you will see that there were really 16 episodes in total, so I don't understand the exact nature of the compilation episode that aired here, but it was way too vague for me. One day soon, I think I might watch episodes 14-16 and see if anything becomes clearer.

I turned on the TV before my recorder started, and, sure enough, it was already half over  I wish I had been able to watch more of this show.

I happened to check the station at 5:30 and therefore watched the entire last episode. So many things seemed vague, so I went to the California Board. The members there were disappointed and in some cases angry with the editing of this last episode. Apparently, there was some BIG incident between Sangu and Insun that caused him to leave for the States alone. Then all that talk from the step -brother about starting over in a warm place and being successful. Well, my understanding now is that when we saw him sitting in the bus stop, he was really frozen to death. Some posts said that there was a site in which to see this uncut, but without subs. However, I didn't copy what the site was. All in all, I enjoyed the show, but was very disappointed in the ending.

I'm not exactly sure what version we were watching here in Chicago, but I just peeked at the first seconds of episode 14 on www.mysoju.com/ and it begins with the letter to Sang Woo (Sangu) from the high school friend of the dead girl; I thought I had seen that in an earlier episode, so perhaps we didn't really see 16 episodes here? If you have a fast enough connection, and you have some time to spend at the library or cafe of your choice that has free WI-FI, I might recommend watching episodes 14-16 and see if it is any different than what aired here; I'm willing to bet that it is.
