She was sponsored by Jeon Ki Suk who happens to be her fiancée and Ha Ri's father.

REVIEW:

Ok, so this series ended up so unexpectedly. It started off funny in the first few episodes and then it became really dramatic by the end. Although it wasn't bad, it was just a very surprising transition. Something like you were laughing really hard on the first episodes then towards the end, you'll start crying like mad.

What I loved about this series though is how they were able to give each character a special attention; not only the main characters. Everyone had their good part and even though there are some whom you'll consider as bad people, resolutions has come even before the real climax began.

This series had an open ending. Something that'll make you wonder on whether this happened or that. But of course, sometimes, a real understanding of how the series ended can already answer your question. For me, I guess it was otherwise. I believe otherwise.

It was also my second time watching Heo Yi Jae act and I'd say that she still needs improvement. Not that I'm saying she's bad in her acting, but she still needs to improve her facial expressions. I think I couldn't see any difference in her crying and smiling faces.

As for Oh Ji Ho, aside from catching a glimpse of him on TV through the series Couple of Fantasy (Couple or Trouble), it was my first time to actually see him act and I was surprised because he's such a great actor. All througout the series, I've always been commenting that OH JI HO's REALLY A GREAT ACTOR because he can already make you cry and laugh with his simple gestures.

I also should mention the cutest and sweetest kid that I've seen ever since I got addicted to K-series. Ahn Do Gyoo. This kid really deserves a praise. He doesn't only act well but he cries well too. Something that kids couldn't easily do but he did it all the same making the drama more touching.
