Introduction*:
When Lee Woo-jin (Andrew) was young, his mother
abandoned him and left him with his aunt. His aunt
was selfish and didn't really like him so she made him
do all the work. He always had faith in God and
believed that He would come and save him. One day,
Andrew's uncle, a priest, came to rescue him and take
him to his church. Andrew grows up there into a
bright, caring boy. During his high school years, he
meets Eun-ha, who was also left at the church after she
became an orphan. After a troubled start, Andrew and
Eun-ha become the best of friends. However, Eun-ha
realizes she loves him and the day that she was about to
tell him the truth, he tells her that he wants to be a
priest. She never got to tell him the truth and they go
to college, where they meet Jung Woo-jin. It is ironic to
them that there are 2 guys named Woo-jin. Jung
Woo-jin falls in love with Eun-ha but Eun-ha's heart is
pulled to Andrew. So, the story continues as a love
triangle unfolds between these 3 people.

Learn Korean:
leobeu (leo-beu) = love (this is a loan word) leteo
(le-teo) = letter (this is a loan word)
Note: "eo" is pronouced like "aw" in saw and is
frequently used for the "er" sound in English (for
example, letter is converted to leteo). If you listen
closely, you'll be able to recognize loanwords when
spoken in the dramas. However, don't expect the
loanwords to be pronounced exactly as they are
spoken in English since the Korean alphabet
(Hangul) does not have the same alphabets as
English.

Pedeuro (pe-deu-ro) = Pedro/Peter
Eseudeo (e-seu-deo) = Esther
Jemma (jem-ma) = Gemma
Maria (ma-ri-a) = Mary/Maria
shinboo (shin-boo) = Catholic priest/father
