Kim Jae Wook mentioned that between Gun Wook and Tae Sung, we couldn’t say who’s the more pitiful. I have to agree. Although Gun Wook is miserable because he is tossed away by the Hongs family, Tae Sung who is taken in lives as a lonely man who couldn’t get the love he wants neither from his family or the woman he loves. Kim Jae Wook pulls the role of Tae Sung so well as we can see the pain inside him although he walks in glory as a fine man he is. His tears, his weak mind, and rough personality on the outside but warm in the inside made us sympathize with him because all this man needs is simply love. Can we blame him? We all need love.

I wonder who wouldn’t love this man. K-drama is crazy.
