Brilliant Legacy / Shining Inheritance

**Sunlight_zero36** · 06-28-09, 03:44 PM

I don't know if this has been made, but I couldn't find it, therefore, I've decided to post up a new thread.

Anyways, I've been hooked to this drama for a while. Han Hyo Joo blew me away with her awesome acting skills. She has surely improved compared to 'Spring Waltz'. I wasn't impressed at all with Spring Waltz, so I doubted myself for her new drama, but she has proven me wrong.

Even the new cast, Lee Seung Gi made it worthwhile to continue watching. I'm sure this will make him much more popular, since he's also a singer. At first, he looked a bit awkward, but he completely changed my perspective as the episodes went by. Gosh, his dimple is a killer!

The supporting casts are also well developed.

The whole plot within each episode makes me thirst for more! For some, it might be slow in the beginning, however, don't hesitate to continue! It's worth it

, because the storyline makes a lot of sense and everyone is PRETTY much straightforward. There's no u-turn or coming back around and around.

I personally love Han Hyo Joo's character in this one because she's so optimistic that perhaps it even makes you joyful just seeing her smile.

I recommend everyone to watch it

I'd prefer Jun Se over Hwan (Lee Seung Gi). I don't know what the heck is with Hwan. I just started about 2 episodes in the series. I don't like the stepmother and the stepdaughter doesn't seem as bad as her mother, just kinda weak (always have to listen to her mother).

I missed the end of episode 2, why did the stepmother take Eun Woo away without telling Eun Sung about it? Eun Sung is worried sick about her brother. That's horrible thing to do!

**Suet Seung** · 07-13-09, 11:58 PM

Yes, it does seem Han Hyo Joo has improved a lot with her acting. I don't know how people like Spring Waltz, the story was a bore and Han Hyo Joo was a bore. I'm glad she improved. She looked so frail and demure in Spring Waltz, her character here Go Eun Sung is a stronger character.

**Suet Seung** · 07-17-09, 12:06 PM

I am so annoyed by Hwan's mother, Young Ran, and sister, Jung. They're so spoiled and greedy. They can't even work or be useful to people. They only like to serve themselves and satisfy their own needs. Hwan is no different, but at least he has more sense than them. I am soooooooooooo sick of their whining and selfish talk. They are truly parasites.

And it's only in a Korean drama where Eun Sung is so close to meeting her father and brother again but for some sadistic reason they can't meet.

Seung Mi's mother is a bit**!

The director of Four Seasons series wanted his last one to be not as depressing and sad as the previous three.

She was 19 and a total newbie; basically the last minute replacement after Sung Yuri bailed out at the last minute due to the dispute over the casting of male lead(Sung Yuri's management firm wanted a package casting with another actor represented by them, and replace the male lead.) The director refused, and Sung Yuri quit. And you can see her inexperience from shooting her first TV series. Sung Yuri did make up for Spring Waltz controversy with The Snow Queen, produced by the Four Season series director(But not directed).

Haha, talk about the last one being supremely depressing because I had to go through the horrible drama, only ending up being disappointed

I felt like that about Junse Oppa too, but it's only the beginning

.

Blehh, you'll get annoyed of Seung Mi real quickly ... not because she's a bit** like her mom, but she doesn't have a brain to decide for herself.

Every Korean dramas add in a cliche or a very predictable ending, so yes, the answer must be obvious

. Happy ending, I'm guessing!

while Junse is an eye candy. The real star is Hwan. I was amazed that he can really act. The fact that he makes you hate him at the beginning and love him along the way shows you show how convincing of a character is.

I always loved Lee Seung Gi before as a singer. He continues to amazes me of how talented he is. Not only is he smart, sings great, nice guy, now a actor.

As for Seung Mi,i feel korean dramas are always the second girl crazily stupid about a guy or extremely evil. Getting repetitive dont you think!

Overall, Lee seung gi is the best thing that happened to this drama.

As for Han Hyo Joo, she's cute. I seen her act before i dont think this role is that much different from her other roles. It's one of those roles that can easily be play by any actress but she looks so cute with Hwan.

hi..emm..i also think that lee seung gi is a good actor..

**palelite2** · 07-24-09, 08:43 AM

Romance K-dramas are expected to be predictable and safe.

Not necessarily. Recall classics like Autumn Tale, Winter Sonata, Summer Scent, Stairway to Heaven, Sad Sonata, etc???

My point exactly. They don't do it like that anymore. They don't do sad (ending) romantic dramas much anymore.

Yes, the ending was quite simple, but I admit that it was better than most dramas nowadays.

Hopefully, there will be another drama as good as this one because I haven't seen one in a while!

I'm so sad that it's over ! Gosh, the casts did a magnificent job!

**AyaAsou** · 09-09-09, 02:47 AM

I wanna see this drama sooo badly

It looks promising!

Yeah, at first I didn't get why the stepmother took Eun Woo away. But then I realize it's because he's not as dumb as she thought he was. He memorized her phone number and new apartment number, so if he met Eun Sung again, they might find their way to stepmother's new pretty apartment and then take back the money that was rightfully theirs (if their father did die).

The stepmother was a very very terrible and cruel lady, but she did drop off Eun Woo at her own village where she knew he would be taken care of. Though at the end, I still felt that she didn't really regret all the wrongs that she had committed.

Overall the series was pretty darn good. The cast was good, and I'd say the best actor goes to the actor who plays Eun Woo. The kid was very convincing.

Have you try "Family Honour" aka "Glory of Family"? It is better than Shining Inheritance

!

I haven't seen a great kdrama that i've enjoyed so much as Family Honour. It rekindle my interest in Korean Drama again.

You are right. Family Honor is a great and meaningful show. Love the cute couple Park Shi Hoo and Yoon Jung Hee.

If I ever watch Shining Inheritance, I guess it's because of Bae Soo Bin. Don't really like Lee Seung Ki, don't find him good-looking at all. Probably give this show a miss then.
