"Lee Soo Ha, 38th granddaughter of the Jae Ahn Lee clan and owner of the clan manor Hwa Ahn Dang, is trying to save the place from going bankrupt. Hwang Dong Gyu, oldest grandson of the president of TOP Group, is trying to buy Hwa Ahn Dang because his grandfather, who was once a servant at the manor, cannot rest in peace unless he spends his last days in Hwa Ahn Dang's master suite. Hwang Chan Min, Dong Gyu's playboy cousin, is his rival in business and love. Enter Seo Hwa Ran, a model who has a secret history with and a secret plan for Hwa Ahn Dang (and Chan Min), and Lee Joon Yong, Soo Ha's brother and Chan Min's friend who can't forget a girl from Hwa Ahn Dang he knew when he was a kid... This drama is adapted from the novel, "Kimchi Mandu."
I've tried to watch this drama several times, but the first episode was so boring that I could never get through it even though so many people have said what a wonderful drama this is. I finally got around to watching this recently, though, and I have to say that I absolutely love it! The female lead is hilarious as Lee Soo Ha. The facial expressions she gives on camera are priceless. I think I would watch this over and over again just to see her expressions.
I think the reason I like this the best, other than the comedy, is the simple fact that it isn't as cliche as most Korean dramas. The lead male character isn't a cold rich guy who treats the main girl like dirt. I can finally watch a drama without having to see a female character get continually spat on by the male lead. I really hate it when they make the female take crap from the male and she still falls for him. It makes me want to murder the writer.
All in all, this is a wonderful little drama to check out if you ever have time.
Television, Books, Manga, Movies, and Anime are my Obsession. As such, I'd like to recommend some of my most favorite stories to you. My recommendations originate from many different countries, including Korea, Japan, Taiwan, and (my own country) USA. I hope you read my blog and find the great stories I've come to know and love.

"Han Seung-wan (Kim Jae Won) leaves for Singapore to surprise his girlfried on her birthday, and Jung Se-jin (Eugene) is on the same flight to say farewell to her deceased "first love" who died in Singapore. When literally bumping into each other at the airport, they accidentally take each other's passports. They meet again and Seung-wan and Se-jin end up spending the day together. Se-jin knows about his girlfriend, who is two timing Seung-Wan with Min Do-Hyuk (Lee Ji Hoon). Partially to help Seung-Wan avoid from discovering the truth, Se-Jin spends the rest of her time with him. They both get drunk out of sadness of their loves, and end up sleeping together. Back in Korea, Se-jin discovers she is pregnant. She leaves to have the baby alone. A series of events happens for about a year, and Se-Jin's clueless sister ends up spilling the secret to Seung-Wan at this engagement party, showing up with Han Shin-Bi (Jung Da Bin), his daughter, without Se-Jin. Seung-wan's life is forced to face fatherhood and the anger of his two-timing girlfriend - Lee Chae-young (Han Eun Jung). Se-jin reappears as they are forced to marry by their respective families. Complicated love takes place, as Do-Hyuk starts to fall for Se-Jin, and so does Seung-Wan, though Se-Jin is more focused on her loving daughter, as something surprising happens to her. The rest of the story revolves around the family's journey in learning to take responsibility, and learning to love each other."
TISSUE ALERT!(Note: if you watch this, buy a box of tissues @.@ A great drama, and really funny, but there are really sad parts in it from what I can remember)
