Is it possible to tell me regarding Yoon Hee's boyfriend? Does he believe that Yeon Hwa is innocent? What is his background? He seems to be beaten up by some gangsters. Does he owns shares in the cosmetic company? No, Tae Il doesn't believe Yeon Hwa is innocent. He blames Yeon Hwa and Yoon Jae for what happened to Yoon Hee. He and Yoon Jae used to be friends. Before Yoon Hee died, he seemed to be trying to turn his life around. Now, I'm not sure what he's up to, besides being a thorn in Yoon Jae's side. Yoon Jae's stepmother seems to want to use his hate for Yoon Jae and Yeon Hwa to her advantage. Kang Wook (the stepmom's son) told her Yeon Hwa wasn't a spy (that Yoo Ra framed her) so I don't think she cares about Yeon Hwa anymore. It seems Yeon Hwa might be pregnant after all. I wish they hadn't gone that route. This is turning into Daring Woman. Korean viewers don't seem pleased that she might be pregnant either.

from eps 25 to 28
Yeon Hwa's mom gives Yeon Hwa's notebook of ideas to Yoon Jae. He barely glances at it. He goes to see Yeon Hwa and tells her he wants nothing more to do with her. Yoon Jae proposes to Yoo Ra. She, of course, says yes.
Detective Park Chang Du continues to harass Yoo Ra for money. Yeon Hwa's mom overhears Yoo Ra on the phone with her dad talking about Park Chang Du, Yeon Hwa and Yoon Hee's accident. Yeon Hwa's mom confronts and grabs Yoo Ra, who tries to get away from her, causing Yeon Hwa's mom to fall down the stairs. Yeon Hwa's mom is sent to the hospital.
On the day of Yoon Jae and Yoo Ra's wedding, Yeon Hwa gets into a fight inside the prison. She's badly beaten and is taken to a hospital. When they arrive at the hospital, she escapes with the help of a former cellmate. Yeon Hwa goes to the wedding and confronts Yoo Ra. She tricks Yoo Ra into meeting her on the roof by sending her a text as if it were from Park Chang Du. Yeon Hwa handcuffs Yoo Ra to her. Yoo Ra struggles to get away from Yeon Hwa and they both fall off the roof. They survive the fall and are sent to the hospital.
When she regains consciousness, Yoo Ra doesn't want to let Yoon Jae out of her sight. She's obsessed with marrying him. Yeon Hwa is sent back to jail. There, she learns that she is pregnant.
The whole pregnancy doesn't make much sense to me. Yeon Hwa got badly beaten more than once and even fell off a roof. So, how is she pregnant?

Does Yoo Rae know that Yeon Hwa is pregnant? Does Yeon Hwa thinks that Yoon Jae is the person sending her those postcards? What is Yoon Jae thinking when he betray Yeon Hwa? Is Kang Wook feeling guilty for not exposing Yoo Ra?
I'm having a lot of issues viewing the episode via Tudou. I jump through hoops just to view this episode. I wish it would stream on youtube all the time. Seen you've been active at Soompi lately.
Look forward to your weekly review. Thank you.

from eps 29 to 32Yoo Ra and Yoon Jae register their marriage. They're now legally married. Kang Wook starts writing Yeon Hwa. He doesn't tell her who he is. He just tells Yeon Hwa that he believes her. She writes him back and they become pen pals. Yeon Hwa's sister Soo Ae runs away from the care center she's at. She eventually runs into a police officer who takes her to a police station. They ask her for a phone number to call her family but the only number she can remember is Park Chang Du's. When they call him, he claims not to know her. Soo Ae sees her stepfather (Yoo Ra's dad) on TV and starts calling him dad. The police call him to come get her. When he arrives, he claims that Soo Ae is really the daughter of a friend. That he's away and she calls him dad in her father's absence. Park Chang Du later calls Yoo Ra to ask how Soo Ae knows his number. Yoon Jae's stepmom uses the CD that Kang Wook has, which shows how Yoo Ra framed Yeon Hwa as a corporate spy, to get Yoo Ra's grandma to withdraw her support for Yoon Jae at J Cosmetics. Kang Wook replaces Yoon Jae as president of the company. Yoo Ra does a TV interview in hopes of helping the image of J Cosmetics. The TV crew trick Yoo Ra and Yoon Jae into volunteering at the same place as Yeon Hwa. They're both surprised to see Yeon Hwa there and leave soon after. Does Yoo Rae know that Yeon Hwa is pregnant? No. The only person outside the jail that knows she's pregnant is Yeon Hwa's former cellmate. What is Yoon Jae thinking when he betray Yeon Hwa? Not sure what you mean. What scene are you referring to? Is Kang Wook feeling guilty for not exposing Yoo Ra? Yes. He feels bad for Yeon Hwa and seems to be developing feelings for her. Does Yeon Hwa thinks that Yoon Jae is the person sending her those postcards? Yes. Not sure if Kang Wook is letting her intentionally think that or not but that's how things have turned out. I'm having a lot of issues viewing the episode via Tudou. I jump through hoops just to view this episode. I wish it would stream on youtube all the time. Seen you've been active at Soompi lately. It's available at youtube: www.youtube.com/user/Oumae25

Thanks for the link and answers. It's a pity that there's no subbing for this drama. It's quite good.
Another quick question: What is the meaning/significance of the yellow wild flower throughout the drama?

Another quick question: What is the meaning/significance of the yellow wild flower throughout the drama? I'm not sure actually. I know it relates to the title of the drama but I don't really get why it's called Yellow Boots. Note: I edited my post above because I forgot to mention what happens with Soo Ae.

I am just learning Korean ( I know maybe 6 words - lol) so I only understand a few words but I think the flower has something to do with Joon Jae. In the first episode he was explaining something to YH about the flower. I am pretty sure I hear him say "boksoocho" and that word is also in the Korean title. This is all total guesswork on my part but maybe he was telling her that it is a flower that can survive even in the worse conditions or that the bloom during winter or with the arrival of spring or something. How they got from the yellow wildflower to yellow boots is beyond me. A better title would have been to just call it Wildflower. Since JJ and YR ran into YH at the service center I am guessing that they will end up taking her child since she is pregnant (typical K-drama plot) and this would be a bad way to go. If they go that route then you know the revenge won't really happen because YH would desist for the child's sake. Or maybe they do something that causes her to miscarry - this would work better to bolster her desire for revenge. I agree that the pregnancy route is totally ridiculous. A pregnant woman is very prone to miscarriage during the first 1-4 months and YH was kicked in the stomach in the first episode. That fetus must be bionic to still be alive.

I reckon that YH's child will be taken by JJ & YR and death occurs. It seems that YH's mum will die in the next episode in the preview during the struggle with YR. It's all speculation. I still wish both JJ and YH will end up well even though it is far fetch.
I agree with you that the fetus should have been miscarried during the fights in prison and when she falls from the building. It's ridiculous.

Hello and welcome to the board keitachan2006. Glad to have another person join the discussion.
Yeah, the pregnancy would be the only complaint I have about the drama. I was thinking along the same lines, she'll either have a miscarriage or the baby will be taken from her. Supposedly, she'll eventually hate Yoon Jae too, not just Yoo Ra. So, maybe it'll be because the baby is taken from her. It's that, or Yoo Ra does something to Yeon Hwa yet again and Yoon Jae takes the blame (taking the baby would apply).

Thanks Knov1. I just spent the day scouring the web to see if anyone is subbing this and no one appears to be boohoo. I wish someone would. I feel I am missing so much. Thanks a lot for the recaps. If you have time please do them daily. So frustrating to watch the raws and not know what is happening but I can't help myself - lol. I wish K-dramas would stop it with the totally abstract and obscure English title. Yellow boots? Are her boots gonna walk all over him like in the song - Boots are made for walking?

I'd prefer to stick with the weekly recaps. I currently have time because I'm taking a break from moderator duties. That allows me to watch more stuff and post a bit more in Other Shows.
DramaFever will probably add this sometime in the future. If you want to give them extra incentive to do so, I suggest contacting them and requesting that they add Yellow Boots asap.

So, the Yeon Hwa's mum didn't die during the fall. Has Yoo Ra finally realised that Kang Woo is the who wrote to her? What did Mum wrote on the piece of paper at the hospital that makes Yoo Ra's Dad took her back home?
Why doesn't Soo Ae gave the CD to Tae Il when she sees him at the hospital? Does Yoon Jae realize the content of the CD when he confronts Yoo Ra? He should have know direct confrontation with Yoo Ra will only generate lies and excuses.
I empathized with him at times because he is being manipulated by people around him and circumstances. He's got no knowledge of what's happening to Yeon Hwa behind his back. By the time he realizes, it's too late.
Like to know the content of the conversation between Kang Woo and Yoon Jae at the bar in Episode 36.
Yoo Ra miscarriage and desperately trying to get pregnant again (how can she if there's no love between them) - KARMA. Discovery of baby Tae Yong by Yoo Ra - I thought the baby would have automatically been registered upon birth with or without Yoon Jae's knowledge. So, how can Yoo Ra take Tae Yong in the preview at the end of episode 36?
Is Yeon Hwa bent on revenge now (confessing at church in episode 36)?
What is Park Chang Du and Tae Il both investigating at the same time in episode 34 or 35?

from eps 33 to 36The drama forwards several months. Yeon Hwa is ready to give birth. She has a boy and names him Tae Yang (which means sun). Yeon Hwa's mom is recovering in the hospital. She writes a note for the nurse stating that Yoo Ra was responsible for what happened to her and Yeon Hwa. The nurse shows the note to Yoo Ra's dad. He takes Yeon Hwa's mom back home with him in an effort to keep her quiet and away from others. While Yoo Ra's grandma is out of the house, Soo Ae and Yeon Hwa's mom watch the video showing how Yoo Ra framed Yeon Hwa as a corporate spy. They're on their way to show Yoon Jae the video when they're intercepted by Yoo Ra. While struggling with Yoo Ra over her bag, Yeon Hwa's mom falls down a hill and is badly injured. Thinking that Yeon Hwa's mom died in the fall, Yoo Ra returns home and makes it look like Yeon Hwa's mom left a suicide note. In the suicide note, she states that she's killing herself because of Yeon Hwa. Yeon Hwa's mom survives the fall and is hospitalized. Yeon Hwa learns of her mom's attempted suicide. She doesn't understand why her mom would attempt suicide after receiving a letter from her stating that she was coming to visit her with Soo Ae. Yeon Hwa is let out of jail to see her mom in the hospital. Yoo Ra confronts Soo Ae about the CD, takes it from her and breaks it. Before returning to jail, Yeon Hwa runs into Soo Ae outside the hospital. Soo Ae tells her about what they saw on the video and how Yoo Ra destroyed the evidence. After returning to jail, Yeon Hwa asks her friend and former cellmate to keep an eye on Soo Ae and her mom. The friend writes her back and tells Yeon Hwa that "Choruba" (Kang Wook, Yeon Hwa's penpal) has been visiting Yeon Hwa's mom and Soo Ae in the hospital. Yoo Ra is pregnant but has a miscarriage. Then the drama forwards about a year (maybe more). Yoo Ra has been trying to get pregnant again but no luck so far. While at the jail, Yoo Ra sees Yeon Hwa with Tae Yang. After hearing Yeon Hwa tell Tae Yang to "come to mom", Yoo Ra realizes that Tae Yang is Yeon Hwa's son. Why doesn't Soo Ae gave the CD to Tae Il when she sees him at the hospital? Does Yoon Jae realize the content of the CD when he confronts Yoo Ra? Because Soo Ae doesn't trust Tae Il either. No, Yoon Jae doesn't know what was on the CD. Soo Ae just told him that she fought with Yoo Ra over the CD and that's how she got hurt. Yoo Ra told Yoon Jae that Soo Ae was lying and made the whole thing up. I empathized with him at times because he is being manipulated by people around him and circumstances. He's got no knowledge of what's happening to Yeon Hwa behind his back. By the time he realizes, it's too late. I don't see him as a victim in any of this. Yeon Hwa tried to warn him about Yoo Ra more than once. He married Yoo Ra to save his position in the company. It didn't do him any good in the end. What is Park Chang Du and Tae Il both investigating at the same time in episode 34 or 35? I'm not sure what Tae Il is up to but Park Chang Du is investigating Yoon Jae's stepmom for Yoo Ra's dad.

Thanks so much for the recap. It is so frustrating that no one is subbing this and I put in a request to Viki open a channel for it and no response. Probably is licensed elsewhere.

Yellow Boots is a daily drama so I doubt any subbers will want to take on a project this long.
I'm glad Yeon Hwa is finally out of jail. She spent around 20 eps or so in jail.
