-Is anyone else starting to not like the sister-in-law character? She seems to be the upcoming opposition to our Se Kyung/Seung Jo relationship and I'm fearing the heartaches that this drama is undoubtedly going to bring.

Yeahh, I initially thought that Seo Yoon Joo's role in the drama would be the opposing force between Se Kyung and Seung Jo, but I guess not, although I haven't developed any malicious feelings toward the sister-in-law yet. So she is in the clear... for now.

And I'm actually looking forward to the conflicts that are going to ensue between the sister-in-law the rest of the characters.

Love PSH acting!

Finished 6 and am loving this show. Park Shi Hoo always proves his ability to excellently pull off comedy and drama. He is just great. All the feels here. He makes me laugh, he moves me emotionally and he's pretty to look at. This show is well written and so far, delivering on the plot... I hope it keeps it up! It's my new "I can't stand waiting a week for more" drama.

City is upset. so far i have lurved this drama to peices. now i'm not sure if it can redeem itself from the idiot plot device.

* alright, i REALLY dont get WHY Se Kyung is going to continue trying to white rabbit Seung Jo. why does she need to orchestrate anything? in all honesty things couldnt have worked out better for her. all she has to do is just be with him. she could even be honest and say "after my experience with In Chan i was determined to have a better life so i approached the president in hopes that he could introduce me to people who would help me achieve that goal. i liked secratary kim but i was hesitant b/c of how things ended with In Chan." why for you have to pretend you didnt know, why are you trying to manipulate him? enter the idiot plot device. the ONLY explination for this turn of events is that this well educated woman has suddenly turned idiot. i really hope that she just ends this whole white rabbit thing at knowing he was president a few hours before he told her and stops trying to manipulate him, otherwise i just dont know if this drama will be able to crawl out from under the idiot plot device. *** end spoliers.

Somebody stops me before it's too late ! I tried hard to refrain myself from watching CA but I miserably failed and I'm already at episode 4... I don't want to die waiting for the next episodes :'(

Also, and above all, I don't want Se Kyung to become evil and hurt Seung Jo ! Shiro !!!

I literally LOVE Park Shi Hoo in this drama (omo the ending of ep.4!). I've tried some of his previous dramas but I got bored so I dropped them ...but I totally reconciled with him <3

I agree with you wholeheartedly this turn of events is ruining this drama for me. I hate MGY's character now & cannot root for her as the heroine of this drama if she is a callous manipulative b****. I hope the writers can redeem this otherwise I will not be a very happy bunny :p

Also on a side note is it just me thats sickened by peoples greed for materialistic things? It seems to be depicted in kdramas alot as if its perfectly normal to want more. I have no desire whatsoever to live in the posh part of town & wear designer clothes, these things have NOTHING to do with true happiness. I could understand if people were so poverty stricken that they could not afford to eat for them to resort to any means to get money but to scheme & connive just because you have £20 pair of shoes & you want to wear/buy £500 shoes is beyond ridiculous....

the folks over at Eat Your Kimchi have said a few times that Korea does have a materialistic/superficial culture. i've heard it on another vlog too.

This drama rocks . the main actor is nuts . the moment he goes crazy when he finds out about alice will be epic :D
