What was Min-Joo's stepmom's relationship before she married her father? It doesn't seem very clear. Did Min-Joo's father married this woman after a divorce from or death of his first wife? Does it appear that her stepmom raised her? There seems to be about a 10 year difference between MJ and her estranged sister.

I know that MJ's natural mother is dead. From what I've picked up in the story, it seems Kyung-oe (MJ's stepmother) worked as an assistant to the president of Sierra Park Resorts, MJ's father. At the time, MJ"s mother was still alive and the three lived together as a family. The father (forget his name no) began an affair w/ Kyung-oe. I have no idea how long it went on supposedly, but President Jo married Kyung-oe after his wife (MJ's mother) died. We learned recently from a conversation Kyung-oe had with Sun-joo that she never loved her husband, but married him when she learned she was pregnant (w/ Sun-joo). How convenient the old guy was free by then...maybe he had his first wife bumped off, who knows? I'm not serious, but I don't know the specifics. I haven't heard if it was ever mapped out that explicitly.
I don't know how old MJ was when her father married Kyung-oe. Certainly I agree the age difference can't be more than 10 years...probably less.

I seem to recall that Min-joo was a teenager, maybe 14-ish when this all took place, so at that age she would be very much aware of the shocking circumstances and all the more resentful over the loss of her own mother/substitution of another.
