This drama starred Kim Nam Joo (Ji Ae), Oh Ji Ho, Lee Hye Young, Sun Woo Sun, Choi Chui Ho and Yoon Sang Hyun was basically a story about the rivalry between Ji Ae and Yang Boon soo who were once BF in school turned enemy because of a man.
They met inevitably when Ji Ae's husband Dahl Soo was interviewing for a position in a company where Bong Soo's husband Joon Hyuk (Ji Ae's ex-bf) was the vice president. In an attempt to make a better prospect for the hubby to get the position, Ji Ae made the first move to establish friendships with all the bosses's wives including Bong soo. However Bong Soo although married to Joon Hyuk hide a secret that soon tore them apart. The secret made her insecure and scared that Joon Hyuk might left her for Ji Ae. Furthermore, while in school, Ji Ae was once a popular girl who loved bullying her. Hence, she did everything she could to ruin Ji Ae life.
Dahl Soo, was a very smart but too honest to live in a society where he found himself unable to fit in in a workplace. However, after seven years of in and out of job, he decided to give all he got and tried to make it work for the last time. Trouble came when he met the wife of the president of the company where he wanted to work at.She was his former junior in university who had a crush on him. She was lonely and out looking for an affair after challenged by his husband to prove she could cheat on him like he did to her. She was more than please to meet Dahl Soo. She soon looked for him to console her aching soul and to confide about her suffering. She even contemplated running away with him. Dahl Soo heart's wavered although not to a point where he left his wife but still it was enough to cause a fight between Ji Ae and Dahl soo. This was all further fueled by Boon Soo who poisoned Ji Ae's mind. Boon soo who accidently witnessed Dahl soo hugging the president't wife, took the CCTV recordings and showed it to Ji Ae.
Ji Ae met the President accidentally when he crashed on her car. Although there was no injury she planned an insurance fraud against him but soon withdrawed the claim after being found out by him. After that, they keep bumping on each other and soon the president fell for her that he moved to her housing area. All the while hiding his identity. It was soon found out by Dahl Soo and later by Director Kim's wife who paid the president secretary to leak on important information about the president. This secret was soon used against the president and Dahl Soo for the benefit of Director Kim who wanted to replace the president.
The company in particular Director Kim was spearheading a riot to overturn the president. Thus, he plotted a plan after plan to make sure the project headed by the president became unprofitable. In the process of doing so he hired the new employee and the weaklings in the company to involve in the project. Dahl Soo was picked among them. However, Director Kim plan back stabbed him when the team came up with a good project. His weapon which was Dahl Soo whom they know hated the president for coming on to his wife, got back to his sense and revealed Director Kim's dirty plan.
That was a little about the story. There were plenty other ingredients but I just mentioned a little bit here and there that connected it until the drama ended.
The story centered on the life of the housewives who were all trying to be the perfect/superwoman mate for their beloved husbands. The only time, their heart was not totally into the marriage was when another person came into the picture.
What I like about this drama was how it actually portrayed the real lives of some women who were living to please their husbands and somehow found themselves disillusioned once their reason to live for which was the husband was no longer faithful to them even though the affair might only lasted a second. A wavering heart itself broke the heart to the point of no return.
From episode 17th onwards I was cursing nonstop, because I found the script very much annoying. I myself might not be able to forgive Ji Ae of what she said to her husband. It was too much.
Anyway, this drama would allow you to learn about the other side of marriage. It was so true about the argument, the expectation and the temptation but through it all, if both did not stop to patch up for good, life would still be lovely. There would be a good and a bad day but life is only bearable if you have that special someone by your side inspite of all the flaws. That was what you might get after watching this.
I am gonna give it emm..3 1/2 star ^_^.. I could not like Kim Nam Joo.
