Hee, Daniel Choi and Jung Soo Min
Kim Ji Hyuk (Kang Ji
Hwan) is a former gangster trying to live life right by cutting ties with the
gangs, and getting part time jobs. After he finally getting the man responsible
for a death he was set up on, Ji Hyuk wants to live as normal as possible. That
is until one day the son of Hyesung Group Kang Dong Suk (Daniel Choi) gets into
a car accident and needs a heart transplant. Trying to jump the transplant
list, the Kang family is informed that they will not be able to do so no matter
money or wealth. So they find illegal means in order to find the most promising
match for a heart transplant, which happens to be Ji Hyuk. After ordering to
attack Ji Hyuk the Kang family adds Ji Hyuk to the family register because that
is the only possible way for the transplant to be given to Dong Suk. But when
Ji Hyuk suddenly awakens at the hospital, where he was supposed to be brain
dead, the Kang family has no other choice but to pretend that Ji Hyuk is their
long lost son.
At first Ji Hyuk tries
to accept his new found family, he is surprised to find out that there is
something wrong with their story as well as the reason for “finally finding
him” and tries to find the truth, but the president of Hyesung is not that easy
to get around…
Another chaebol story:
this time one that tries to become chaebol out of revenge. I think the idea and
the storyline was very well thought off, even though very typical. And yet they
were able to make me watch every episode every week. It was not too exciting;
more of a good breather, in between all those stuffy dramas, this one was
pretty okay to watch.
The one thing that intrigued
me was the Kang family, who were so scary to starts with, but as I kept
watching they were just scary and weak as hell. I like Ji Hwan, though he kind
of bored me half way through, same with Da Hee.
Daniel Choi was scary like really, couldn’t recognize him, and Jung Min
Soo was useless once again.
Lol, I’m trying not to
give up too much, but to sum up: a typical Korean chaebol drama, with a twist
of crazy/scary family.
