Lee Soo Jung (Ha Ji Won), a poor, simple girl, orphaned at a young age and burdened with a problematic brother. Tired of living in poverty, she dreamt of being with a rich man. She believed this was the key to escape her miserable life of poverty. Her dream materialized when she met Jae Min, the son of a rich and influential family. (Initially, she had mistaken In Wook to be the one, but it was rectified later on.) She secretly hoped to capture the attention of Jae Min and have a relationship with him, despite his nonchalant attitude, while at the same time, she found herself drawn to In Wook’s gentleness. Thus, she became torn between both men, Jae Min, the man of her dreams and In Wook, the gentle, sensitive man. It was difficult to determine which man she truly loved. She was attracted to the strong qualities of the two men, Jae Min, for his ability to provide her a life of luxury and In Wook, for his ability to give her the love she craved for. It seemed she could not live without either of them. She left with In Wook to Bali, yet her heart missed Jae Min when she was there. But on the other hand, she could not bear the thought of not being able to see In Wook again after he left for Bali. Her conflicting emotions agonized her deeply. How ideal would it be, if both men could merge into one!If this was possible, she wouldn’t have to make the hard choice between them and she could have the best of both worlds!
Park Ye Jin (Choi Young Joo), the ex-girlfriend of In Wook, who was forced to leave him due to the arranged marriage between her and Jae Min. Basically, she striked me as a cold, selfish and spiteful woman. For one, she had an aloof exterior, which impressed me as a woman with little warmth or love within her. She claimed she loved In Wook, but I beg to differ. I wouldn’t term her feelings towards him as love, but rather, it was an obsession. She was obsessed with In Wook, because she had never met a man as masculine and attractive as him before. To her, he was very special. She had proposed for them to continue their relationship in secret after her marriage, but In Wook turned down her proposition. What depressed her further was the fact that In Wook fell in love with Soo Jung, a girl whom she felt was undeserving in every way. Anyway, she came to accept the idea of marrying Jae Min. But soon, she was hit by another distressing realization. She realized that Jae Min was in love with Soo Jung too. Consequently, her resentment towards Soo Jung was intensely fuelled. She felt undermined by Soo Jung. She had always seen herself more superior than Soo Jung in every way, in terms of background, appearance and intellect. Yet Soo Jung was able to steal the hearts of both men effortlessly, without even trying, whereas she couldn’t even feel a hint of affection from either man, no matter how hard she tried.
So Ji Sub (Kang In Wook), on the outside, he was cool and composed, highly intelligent and capable at work, but at heart, he was a sad and lonely man, yearning for love. His childhood had been an unhappy one. Raised by his mother single-handedly, every achievement he obtained was through his own hard work. He had never been in love before, until he met Soo Jung. It was not love at first sight. When he first met her in Bali, he didn’t have a very good impression of her. The incident whereby they shared a cab and he suddenly told her to get off the cab in the middle of nowhere was one indication.Later, they met each other again in Korea, as she was living next door to him. He saw another side of her that he had never known before. He saw how pathetic she became because of her wretched brother. He witnessed her disappointments and sorrow. Her tears melted his heart. Slowly, he began to view her in a different light. Eventually, he fell deeply in love with her. His love towards Soo Jung was selfless too. Even though he knew Soo Jung would never be able to detach herself from Jae Min, he was willing to overlook this and offer her marriage. This showed the depth of his love for her. During the time they were together in Bali, though Soo Jung was physically with him, he knew in his heart, she was unhappy because she couldn’t forget Jae Min. Despite his heart was breaking, he decided to set her free. He told her that he wanted her to be free to do whatever she wanted and that he would always be waiting for her to come back to him. I could remember the look of pain in his eyes and the tears rolling down his face, as he said these words to her. What impressed me most about In Wook was his ability to maintain an unreadable expression and the only indication of his feelings was via his eyes.
Jo In Sung (Jung Jae Min), born with a silver spoon in his mouth and never had a care for anything occurring around him. However, he was terrified of his father. He was always nervous and visibly cringed under his father’s domineering presence. His father never had any qualms about hitting him with any object he could lay his hand on. It was upsetting to see the frequent harsh beatings he got from his father and the extent of his injuries resulting from them. This was the method Jae Min’s father employed to bend him to his will. No matter how hard he tried to express his opinions to his father, they always fell on deaf ears. These treatments had somehow affected his character and also, his figure of expression. Consequently, when he fell in love with Soo Jung, he did not know the right way to show his love for her. The only way he knew how to hold on to this love was to possess it fully. He wanted Soo Jung exclusively for himself, which was also the reason why he set her up in a house. If he couldn’t have her, he wouldn’t allow any other man, including In Wook, to have her too. In short, his love was very possessive. He was also a victim in his own right. Although he could have anything money could buy, he had no control over his own life. His career path and marriage partner were determined and arranged by his family. He had no right to choose what he really wanted. It made one wonder, what was the use of having all the money, but yet, no control over one’s own life?CAST:
