The plot was quite unique and that was why I gave it go. It started off with Mi Soo, the rich girl and Gi Dong the guy who views money as everything to a completely different situation. Mi Soo is now poor, because her father's company has gone bankcrupt, and to add to the complexity of the situation, her father has dementia. Episode 19 ended with lots of suspense, Mi Soo feels sorry for Kang Jae (ex-boyfriend) after she learns the truth about him. He wasn't the bad guy that her father had described, in fact he tried to save her father's company. Because of Mi Soo's father, Kang Jae had a bad accident before, and now he has to go to US to have surgery. Mi Soo feeling sorry and guilty for misunderstanding him, consented to go to US too. She promised Gi Dong that she'll be back, but Gi Dong still feels uneasy and urges her not to go. The other storyline that i really like is between Mi Soo's youngest sister, Eun Soo, and her gangster boyfriend. He has since quit th...

Wow..this series has really come to an end. I think I have never seen such a huge following for any other dramas in these few years. But, it does benefit from the past versions, as they had already establish a huge fan base. The last 2 episodes of this version however, was really jam packed with storylines. So far, it has been revealed that Jun Pyo's mother has had her invalid husband (bedridden, unconscious) hidden even from her children, thus rendering her a wicked mother. Ji Hoo also confessed his love to Jan Di, and even giving her the heirloom, a ring. Jan Di however, rejected him, stating that she still loves Jun Pyo. And then, Jun Pyo saves Ji Hoo from a speeding car (a lunatic plotting revenge against Shinhwa group, who mistook Ji Hoo as the heir). At the hospital, where Jun Pyo receovers, but has selective amnesia, and can't remember Jan Di. Meanwhile, Jun Pyo befriends another patient, Jang Yu Mi, and mistakes her for the girl he has forgotten. We have also a bi...

Star's Lover is actually quite a simple story, it's whether a star, celebrity can ever date a commoner. What i appreciate about it is that it is quite realistic in portraying what will happen if this situation ever arises...the public scrutiny into one's life is scary, and an over controlling manager is even scarier. I wonder whether Choi Ji Woo was inspired by her character Lee Mari to be honest with her relationship as she reveal that she was dating someone after this drama ended. hmm.. Anyway, Star's Lover ended at episode 19 intensely. With Ma Ri and Chul Soo together again, and evidence against him presented to him, President Seo goes beserk. He blames the downfall of Ma Ri on Chul Soo, and claims whatever he did (including threatening Ma Ri's first love) is all for Ma Ri's goo. He tries to attack Chul Soo, but Ma Ri protects him. Then, he's escorted out of the building, not before he announces that this isnt the end for him. (goodness, he just wants mo...

My take.. This is basically a love triangle story between Young Jin, Gwang Pil, Soo Ho. On to the end.. I think the biggest concern is who will Young Jin end up with. At first, it felt like Gwang Pil, but throughout the series, it looked like Soo Ho. Then, we know that Gwang Pil did hug Young Jin...anyway, let's just get to the last episode. Ok, it starts with Young Jin gets injured by the bad guy. Gwang Pil arrives and they report the incident to the superior. They try to think who the bad guy is. And after searching through files, and thinking very hard, Gwang Pil figures out that it's Nam Do Woo. Gwang Pil and Young Jin confronts Nam Do Woo, but he denies, and asks for evidence. After reporting back to their superior, the superior can't do anything since there is no evidence. Gwang Pil during a chat later, asks if Young Jin is still his partner. And Young Jin smiles and reply in the positive. At the dance studio, members there throw him a party to cheer him on for the co...
