Fast forward 3 years and she has learned to become independent, having worked several jobs to pay off her debts when suddenly fate seems to have other plans for her and throws Cha Jung Woo back into her life.
I really LOVED this series. I found that while I could get frustrated with the two main characters there was a charm about them that constantly made me want to cheer them on. The siblings, Gook Yeo Jin and Gook Seung Hyun, made me love and hate them at every turn. Their stories were also intriguing, though I feel that there was more I could’ve learned about them.
Without realizing it I marathoned the show because I couldn’t get enough of all of the characters.
