Likable or not a.k.a I hate you, but its fine (KBS1, 2007)
Likable or not a.k.a I hate you, but its fine (KBS1, 2007)
So I'm channel surfing in my dorm and I stumble across this kdrama and despite bring Korean, I never found myself interested in Kdramas. However, this particular drama caught my eye and perhaps it was Han Ji Hye because I saw her somewhere else. Anywhos, this drama has me really hooked and I was wondering if there were any torrents up because I tried searching for it and I got nothing. I also tried its other title, "I hate you but its fine."
Oh yea, don't flame me for being a first time poster that's scrubbing for requests...I've been lurking.

I hope the above guy ends up being JY's new thing, because SJ really needs his a$$ kicked.
Speaking of, I missed so much of this show the past month on KBS America, and I'm really mad that . . .
@Arabian . . .
This show's a winner. I liked Heaven and Earth more than most folks, mostly because it went away from romantic triangles and emphasized the lives of the ajuhmmas and older family members. (also Park Hae Jin is the next Hyung Bin. Cute and really, really emo! ) But this show is glorious. There's SO many families with wacky romantic brouhaha all over the place. It manages to be a magnficient car accident AND adorable at the same time.
And about the 40 rating . . . yeah, speculation goes that as the romantic pairing between Da Poong and Baek Ho starts to gear up, it's also helped by the gossip column material between Han Ji Hye and Lee Dong Gun.
THAT said, the audience for the show have been more positive than toward H&E and Pure 19/Pure in Heart, probably due to Han Ji Hye's girl-next-door superpopularity. That and everybody in the Kingdom of Chosun HATES HATES HATES Evil Sua!

ohh I spoke too soon, thank you guys im checking it out right now
One thing I like about the show is about half of the cast is borderline despicable, yet kinda adorable at the same time. I hate them, but it's fine!
Really, these people just suck! Miae is an awful human being too, flat-out scarring[ her son Chan with her selfish behaviour. Really, these people just suck! And let's face it -- ANY character that Han Ji Hye plays ends up inherenting her snarky cheekbones and those smug "oh that's nice" eyes. Even when she's nice, she can't help be a ****.
IMO, the worst people on the show are definitely Sun Jae and his mum; really, they're two from the same rotten tree. She's a horrible, horrible human being (delightfully played by the actress though) and I hope she realizes it at some point in the show. (Though to be fair, her marraige kinda sucks. Her husband is a chauvinistic, loud boor, and she probably didn't marry out of love.) Evil Sua and her grandmum are two of a kind too, but Evil Sua doesn't have real power without the pull of her grandmum. That's more apparent from Episode 70+.nyway i hope Jo Dong Hyuk chooses Hwang Ji-- and not sua

i just finished ep73today.. wow i cant believe that that jerk SJ, and his mother..selling her son like that for money--i love the father though, honest respectable person who only wants the best for his son...
Poor HJ--i hope she becomes happy with the guy she went to school with--whatever his name was--he seemed very nice--(wouldnt it be funny if sua fell for him and he rejected her just like SJ rejected HJ-just a thought.. I hope DP dumps the doc and finally gets together with Kang Baek.. Ohh i cant wait to see the rest of the episodes im so curious...
i hope sua wil be thought a lesson at the end!!! what is your imput?

I think that's inevitable given that they're the leads in the show. The real obstacle is going to be DP's golddigger bro . . .I hope DP dumps the doc and finally gets together with Kang Baek..
I like how they're taking their time with this. And, of course, the real obstacle is yet again going to be DP's bling, bling, fake smile bro . . .i hope she becomes happy with the guy she went to school with--whatever his name was
My hunch is that the marraige between DP's moneywhore brother and Baby Sua will fail. Even though DP and Baekho can legally get together, I think the fortune teller's prophecy will come true. One shall stand; one shall fall.i hope sua wil be thought a lesson at the end!!! what is your imput?
Personally, I hope their marraige works. I think Seon Jae's character deserves somebody like Baby Sua; he chose money and status over love. SJ and HJ were together for 10 years. TEN YEARS. If SJ had done that to me, OMG, I would kill him, kill myself, then kill him again when I see him on the other side. And then I would reincarnate myself as Baby Sua's evil baby to make Baby Sua even more miserable! The other thing is, during all those 10 years, why did SJ never mention he was in a relationship? Ever?!? Not even to his sister? What was he waiting for? I think their marraige, if it works, will eventually turn into the same one his mom and dad have. The mom ultimately seems like a disappointed wife; he seems too busy with his job (which, BTW, probably was always this way since he must have worked really hard to earn a highly respected government job without a college education) to be a loving husband. (Contrast this with Dong Ji and Jung Gil's remarraige. Even though he runs a company and she is treated like a servant by his mother, they themselves have a loving, sensitive relationship.) For Sua and SJ's marraige to work, she eventually has to accept that he -- like his father -- will prioritize work over love, and that she must accept the role his mother took. He and his mother probably assumed that any sensible woman would "do."
It's not so much funny, but cringe-inducing watching Baby Sua trying to function as a wife. She has the maturity of a 15-year old (erm, no offense to any 15 year olds here . . . Jo Ji Hoon oppa giggle giggle squeee!!!! ;) ) who has basic, basic misconceptions about marraige. You realize that she's probably never been in a relationship before, because she truly, truly doesn't get it.wow i cant believe that that jerk SJ, and his mother..selling her son like that for money--i love the father though, honest respectable person who only wants the best for his son...
To be fair, it doesn't seem like Danpung has been in a serious relationship before either. Otherwise, she'd have shut down all this engagement conversation buzzing around her from the get-go. Hyeon-yu is dorky and a little stalker-ish . . . but it's also clear that she is very warm for Baekho. They're well past the "love/hate" stage in their friendship, and you get the feeling after Episode 79 that, as long as nobody noticed, she was kinda happy with having her cake and eating it too, so to speak. As long as Baekho didn't make a pass or didn't express his feelings, she could have things the way they were. That isn't fair to Baekho either.
The previous KBS daily drama By Land and Sky had a similar female character (actually a good person and they were in a normal, long-term loving relationship) but she was raised in a rich household and wasn't taught by her mother how to be a traditional Korean wife. Their marraige was a borderline disaster, and her own family gave her hell for it. BUT, the show gave it a semi-serious treatment, showing that not only affluent, but really modern Korean young women today have very different expectations. Here, Baby Sua is just SO SO SO outside normality. Her grandmother spoils her rotten; the lack of watching a wife-husband relationship didn't give her a model to observe; she seems kinda starved for her father's attention. And, oh yeah, Baby Sua is Evil!
My hunch is that the marraige between DP's moneywhore brother and Baby Sua will fail. Even though DP and Baekho can legally get together, I think the fortune teller's prophecy will come true. One shall stand; one shall fall.
--I really wish after Sua and SJ get a divorce--that he comes begging HJ for forgiveness and if she could reconsider being with him again--and HJ just laughing and saying "hell no"--ahh what revenge it would be--ohh ohh I hope he also gets fired from Bonjour ,-so he will be jobless, loveless, and have NO MONEY--YAAAY
ANYWAY just seen that so anticipated ep 74-77 are out--thats the episode where BK find out that DP is evil money grabbers sister--I wonder how he will react..
Actually I really hope they'll not divorce so he'll live in a Hell with a spoiled wife till the end of his life & also to not move from his parents house so that SJ mom will suffer with him by being a maid for her princess daugther in law .. so both of them will know that money will never brought the happiness.. >> being so mean cuz they both deserve it..guccijana wrote:

thats a thought--but than he still gets all the money-- and thats all he ever wanted anyway, he knew what he was getting into, he knew how spoiled sua was, and he also knew he was giving up love and happiness--(HJand her family) for money--(sua and her heartless grandma) and despite all that he went for it--that means that money and power are everything to him--he feels that if he has power he has everything and he doesn't need love..however--I agree that if they stayed at SJ house it would be a good punishment for the mom since she wanted her beloved daughter in law sua so bad... it would be funny if at the end SJ' mother thought "gosh i made a big mistake i really HATE SUA, but i have to deal with her for the rest of my life hehehe--arabian wrote:Actually I really hope they'll not divorce so he'll live in a Hell with a spoiled wife till the end of his life & also to not move from his parents house so that SJ mom will suffer with him by being a maid for her princess daugther in law .. so both of them will know that money will never brought the happiness.. >> being so mean cuz they both deserve it..guccijana wrote:

YAY Episode 82 Proving once again that industrial-grade Soju is not only the Fountain of a 1000 K-drama Puke Scenes (seriously, vomit is not cute Korean people! Not! Cute!), but the Drink, the Pompatous of Love!!! Yay alcoholism!! ;)
Dang right. You two built your Full House of Evil Sua; now you live in it!! Forever!! It's just so cringe inducing too. (Grandmother Choi, you get a FAIL for raising Sua! ) I'm half expecting Evil Sua to practice the 3 Bears Dance while the rest of the family plot to assassinate her.Actually I really hope they'll not divorce so he'll live in a Hell with a spoiled wife
It's his character. Honestly, when you see Episode 76, it just shows what really makes Seonjae happy wasn't love. Not even HJ's love. In a way, he did make the right choice, and well he's a total creep for that. He IS his mother's son.-he feels that if he has power he has everything and he doesn't need love..
yes it's really character not caring about marriage life as much as works & position .. that his reason to get married look what he did when he leave her in the hotel in thier Honeymoon to go bac to work & also yesterday EP on KBS World he was showing how busy & how important his position to BH >> poor him .. He told him sitt while I finish those papers as if he was waiting this chance to show infront of BH..belleza wrote:It's his character.

We're only up to Episode 82, but I can totally see that. Baekho and his mum are like Cinderella. They want to be accepted, but they're not and so they're treated like second-class citizens. Seonjae probably deserved the prestige job that he got, but it's like now Baekho's officially the "loser" of their family now now that Seonjae's part of the fray. That's also why I think Seonjae may stay with Sua. Eventually their family will NEED Seonjae, because he's the only qualified heir to the business.he was showing how busy & how important his position to BH >> poor him
I love Baekho though. He's just such a decent, but unlucky guy, you know? And this is maybe the first time I've ever booed at a wedding! Ahhh, love among awful, awful people is great!
@bjharm
If you're a fan of Han Ji Hye, you'll get to watch Han Ji Hye for probably 70-80 hours. I think the show's shooting for 168 episodes.Now I really liked Han Ji-hye in my boyfriend is type b and sweet 19? the one with the arranged marriage
So I wanted to see this one. But the lenght and some of the comments really put me off.
Is it funny or what?
This is the first thing I've seen of Kim Ji Suk besides Nonsyop 5. LoveLetter variety show. Here's a little clip with Ji Suk in NN5
One thing about daily dramas is that, even though you have "leads", there's usually various storylines and triangles that kinda develop on its own between various cast members. For the first 55 episodes of the show, the main storylines doesn't really involve Han Ji Hye's character or her own romantic love-life. Her character Dan Pung and Baekho's situation is more of the cute love/hate side story for the show, balancing out the heavier elements of the main storyline. Then around episode 70 or so, their storyline transitions to the front and center.
Likeable Or Not kinda sticks out in that many of the lead characters can be qualified as "villains"; you should hate them or at least disapprove of what they do. Right now, Sua is the most hated drama character in Korea. LOL!
