My 19 Year Old Sister-in-Law (3)

Its been awhile since I post about my kdrama, partly because I was finishing off the Stephenie Meyer's New Moon and Eclipse and the other because I only got Vol.1 for Yi San...sigh! when will Vol.2 be available??????? When I watched the whole drama then I'll post something about it.....
After falling in love with Yoon Kye Sang in 'Who Are You', I simply wanna watch his other works, and since my niece had this drama ^-^ I'll just have to borrow from her. (Currently in the process of watching Crazy For You - looks promising!)

First of all this drama shouldnt be titled as such, since it told the story when she was 19 and 24 years old. It's about a 19 year old girl, Yoo Min who after the death of her mother when she was 4, was left/abandoned in a train by the two aunts who works at her mother's restaurant. She was later adopted by the couple who found her and later when her adopted father lost at sea and the adopted mother left for parts unknown, she alone take cares of her sick adopted brother, Kang Pyo. She didn't remember much of her childhood, she thought she was abandoned by her parents, so she wants to ask them, even if they are so poor, did they even try to take care of her? She took care of the sick Kang Pyo who don't have any blood relation to her- no matter how hard and trying it is- why couldnt they?

Because of her brother illness, she frequented the hospital Min Jae works at and had a crush on him for years and accidently when she was 19 she meets Seung Jae- the younger brother of Min Jae-who at the time was running away from home. To deter his mother effort to marry him to some socialite, Min Jae gets in an engagement contract with Yoo Min and they all end up living at Min Jae's house. The contract expire when his first love return back to him.

Unexpectedly, Seung Jae and Yoo Min are going to the same high school and those close encounters make him fall in love with her. But he hide it all inside, because he love his brother so much, who also began to develop tender feelings for Yoo Min

I was guessing it was 50-50 at first, which brother she end up with, but then there are more interaction between Seung Jae and Yoo Min rather than with Min Jae so its sorta tipped towards Seung Jae at the end. But the past started unraveling, so maybe she wont choose either brother.... See its their mother who left her on the train!
On the other hand, Yoo Min's father who got amnesia from a car accident when she was four is looking for her again after being told the truth by his father of his marriage and the daughter he never knew he had. He met Su Ji, Yoo Min's childhood friend (one of the aunts' daughter) who remembered him. She knew what her mother had done, so she covered it up by telling Yoo Min's father that her daughter was dead in an accident when she was 9 years old. Funnily enough he bought it, without needing further proof. Even if they dont have grave or they scattered the ashes away at sea or higher ground, don't they have death certifcates or something??? He later sort of treated Su Ji as his surrogate daughter. Not only Su Ji would lose so much if the trut was revealed, she was also in love with Seung Jae who regards her as a sister only...

Cast:

Jung Da Bin as Yoo Min
(DOB: 1980-Mar-04, Died: 2007-Feb-10)
According to police's primary investigation, Jeong death was suicide due to depression.
I didnt like her in this drama - too over, too fake. Then I found that she was no longer among the living. Feeling sad suddenly... Life, you'll never know when its your turn...

Kim Jae Won as Kang Min Jae (DOB: 1981-Feb-18)

Kim Min Hee as Choi Su Ji (DOB: 1982-Mar-01)
Yoon Kye Sang as Kang Seung Jae (DOB: 1978-Dec-20)
Hee...he was older than Kim Jae Won but he played the younger siblings. I thinks its in his smile so young and carefree...but it contrast with his sad eyes... Heehe...by the many pics I posted here, you can guess that he ranks among the top of my Kactors now, maybe even my no.2 ^_^
