Lee Hae In (26) - Actress Kim Sung Eun


     

Hae-in's father, mother, aunt

Family:
Hae In's father (Lee Byung Doo, 51) is a very careful and meticulous man and his family gets really tired of this. The mother (Choi Yu Jung, 49) is a hardworking housewife who is constantly frustrated at her husband's nagging. Hae In is a smart, quick-thinking woman who is very competent at her workplace. She works for a home shopping company called Welbing (I wonder if it is called Well Being Home Shopping in English?). I think she leads the Product Development Dept in the company. The lady in the fourth picture is Hae In's aunt (Lee Ok Doo, 37). I think she owns a cafe near Jae Man's company (Jae Man is the father of Suk Hyun -- please see below) and is popular with male customers at the cafe. She got divorced 7 years ago. She later moved in with her older brother's family.



 

Jang Ki Woong (27) - Actor Jung Joon (Like Father Like Son, Delicious Proposal)
The official website has his name down as Ki Wook on the intro page, but other pages show his name should be Ki Woong.


       

Ki-woong's father, mother, Grandmother, little sister


Family:
The father (Jang Jae Do, 54) of this family is the oldest son of the Jang family. He tries to act manly and brave in front of his family. The mother (Kang Min Sook, 51) is a typical Korean daughter-in-law. Ki Woong is the type that cannot tolerate injustice. He is by nature an optimist and has a warm heart. Grandmother (Suh Mal Ja, 75) likes to nag. Sister (Jang Da Jung, 19) represents the stressed out student in Korea who is about to take her entrance examination for a university.


 

Jang Suk Hyun (26) - Actor Ko Joo Won


   

Suk-hyun's father, mother


Family:
The father (Jang Jae Man, 52) of this family is the second son of the Jang family. He is the chairman of the Welbing (Well Being) Home Shopping. His character is just the opposite of his older brother. He is flirtatious but pragmatic. The mother (Jung Yo Jin, 49) doesn't know anything other than money. Suk Hyun has an MBA from the US. He wants to look for real love but does not open his heart easily.


 

Kim Jong Nam (22) - Actress Kim Ah Joong (Emperor of the Sea - she is a new actress whose first role was Ha Jin in Emperor of the Sea.)


 

Jang Jae Ok (46) is the youngest child in the Jang family. She owns a restaurant, and I think she lost her husband early and just lost her only son recently. So she has been leading a sad and lonely life.

 

What area is going to be the baseline? I'm a week ahead of Philadelphia, and I think NYC is a week ahead of me. Is it going to play in Chicago?

No matter what I do - no one is going to be happy, spoiler-wise. So I guess I am going to have to make a general rule here. I checked the Chicago board and I saw no mention of this drama. So, Philly will be the baseline. Current episodes in Philly are NOT spoilers. If it turns out that this show airs in Chicago, those viewers can start their own topic.

 

It's going to be tough letting the MSMD cast go, seeing as it was my favorite drama out of all of the dramas I have been watching for 6 years.

It is always tough when one drama ends and another begins.

Hopefully, this new one will be good and in a few weeks we will all be talking about how much we love it.

 

I'm sad that MSMD has ended I feel like I was gipped out of watching Himchan grow up.

But I'm willing to give this new show a chance. I believe it starts tonight here in the Philly area.

Will be PVRing it on my computer, just have to set it up via my Titan TV options.

Hmm, I thought it wasn't starting till Tuesday...

Well I hope it starts tonight. That would make more sense anyway...why show the last episode of MSMD a third time? Even though the third time is the charm...

Knowing WYBE, they'll end up doing something like showing the last episode of Bizarre Bunch tonight!

Wasn't Hae In's father, Lee Byung Doo, Choon Hyang's sword obssessed father-in-law in 'Sassy Girl Choon Hyang'?

Seems to me I said that already, in another thread.....

Hae In's father played the District Attorney on Delightful Girl. His character here seems to be an exaggeration of that character.

 

Ah, but we didn't have the same title. I saw it entitled 'Sassy girl, Choon Hyang', and he was a police chief, not a district attorney.

You knew what I meant.

 

How is it no one, caught this information or better yet who has been holding out on me


Update!!

Jang/Chang Jae-man (Suk-hyun's father) Lee Young-ha and Ki-woong's male co-worker (not Cider) Lee Sang-won are father & son.

But Lee Young-ha's wife is none other than Mi-joo's step mother from YH!

I love connections like these.

Clotie, you are absolutely right. Lee Sang Won is Lee Young Ha's son. Lee Young Ha and his wife Sunwo Eunsuk used to be the cutest looking couple in the late 70s.

I asked the Lees for the Happy New Year bow.

 

Interesting...it's a small world after all.
