Introduction*:
Based on a mega popular bestseller of
Korea, this drama is somewhat like the
drama "Snowman" because of the fact that
the step- sister falls in love with her
step-brother and vice versa.
Hyuk-soo is somewhat a cliched Korean
character. Good at fighting and smart, but
chooses the wrong path (almost as if he's
forced to be a jopok); has morals; is loyal;
and most importantly, loves one woman only.
Eun-hae's mom and Hyuk-soo's dad, both
widowed for a long time, fall in love and
decide to get married before Eun-hae's mom
dies. While this is going on, Hyuk-soo and
Eun-hae meet. Automatically they know
they are in love, but since they become
family, Hyuk-soo looks at her in a way an
older brother should ... or does he?
Like the drama "Rustic Period," this drama
has many fight scenes. However, this drama
is more of a romantic drama than an action
piece.

Learn Korean:
namja (nam-ja) = man/men (Namja can refer to man
(singular) or men (plural). Unlike English, the
Korean language does not always make clear
whether a noun is singular or plural. Sometimes
"deul" is added after the noun to clarify that the
noun is plural. However, in the absence "deul," you
must determine from the context of the wording
whether the noun is singular or plural. That is why
you can get various translations of the same title.
ui = of
hyanggi (hyang-gi) = scent/fragrance
Eun-hae can also be romanized as Eun-hye. The
KBFD translator used the Eun-hae romanization.
heuk = black
kom = bear
heukkom (heuk-kom) = black bear
