The alternate title for this is MARRYING MY DAUGHTER TWICE (It was being advertised through GMA 7's Heart of Asia) so the first thought that came to my mind is that the daughter died then her soul transferred to another woman who was clinically dead or something then the son-in-law fell in love with her and married her too. Shucks, I was so wrong. I checked the OTHER title, and I learned it's also called MY SON-IN-LAW'S WOMAN. Now, for me, that is much, much better(I was impatient so I watched this through KissAsian)
Whatever the title is you would wonder about the speaker or who is talking about the person marrying her daughter(singular) twice or her son-in-law. What is her story?
Hers is a sad, but victorious one.
When watching period dramas I would be amazed on how much their historical figures would believe in the person reading their fortune and those readings would come true. Well, the Magi saw the star of Bethlehem that led them to the new born King of Kings, so...but in this story, the daughter-in-law was blamed for all the misfortunes because the fortune teller said so. Well, something like that. My goodness. The right of weaning her daughter was taken away from her when the misfortunes started coming. She was blamed for the crisis in her husband's family.Her mother-in-law hated her because in her mind the reading was true(argh). She's not really one to look down on the less fortunate(debatable), but someone who is a JINX has no right to be a member of the Park household.
You would think shooing away her daughter-in-law is the only sin of Ms. Bang(Mrs. Park, the matriarch). Later in the series you would find out how she wronged another one of the main characters.
Anyways, those two things I mentioned about are intertwined, interweaved or what have you, and the characters are interconnected more ways than one.
The scenes are pretty exciting, and even if one of them doesn't exactly have a redeeming factor, at least in that person found out that ___ is loved.
Another character was able to ask forgiveness before expiring.
Did the main characters have chemistry?
Yes, they look beautiful together.
Oh, by the way, the child who played Kim Hoon or Mason Kim is perfect for the role. At a very young age he is already pretty convincing.
What else?
The side stories and the love story of the "other couples" are good too.
The series is definitely not a waste of time so I hope you get to see it one day if you haven't.
