Beautiful Love Wonderful Life Ep 3
Tabita Knezevic
Life is hard, but finding love and happiness can seem nearly impossible. That's why some, like Kim Seol Ah have decided to focus on a career, rather than waste time and energy on relationships that inevitably end in disaster. A successful career woman, Seol Ah seems to have it all together on the outside, but on the inside, she still longs for the one thing that will make her truly happy.
But Seol Ah isn't the only one struggling. The eldest son of his family, Moon Tae Rang, is a young chef struggling to support the people he loves most while attempting to follow his dreams. He sincerely loves his family, but they have a way of making life difficult at times.
Kim Chung Ah knows all about difficult. Having spent the past eight years studying for the civil service exam, she has given up on any hopes of dating and marriage. As much as she would love to get married and have a family someday, the only thing she has time to think about now is working hard so she can pass the upcoming exam.
On the other end of the spectrum, Goo Joon Hwi has absolutely no interest in marriage, relationships, or other people's affairs. Completely focused on himself and his work, Joon Hwi could happily spend the rest of his life alone, or so he thought...
In the Soompi article that larus posted above KJY mentioned that as of now he and SIA are still filming the bickering scenes...heaven knows how long we will hv to wait .... But I think I can survive if OTP has many scenes together. Apparently the writer also commented that this would not have the usual weekend plots of birth secrets etc and pace would be fast....
Seol In Ah will play the role of Kim Chung Ah, who is a student in her last year of high school who never loses her positive mindset but has a secret she has never told anyone. Jin Ho Eun takes on the role of Goo Jun Gyeom, who is a model student and top of the year, but has a shocking past he is hiding.
YES, maybe it seems that the person who died is linked to the two main leads and will be a trouble in their love story. I suppose it's the rich male lead's brother( related surely) and he is friend with the poor female lead, so he There will be an accident and it is the female lead who will be charged, in any case the mother of the dead character who seems to be judge wants to torture her, and her relationship with her father seems to have deteriorated following this accident.
Since there is 100 episodes, you have to prepare to be frustrated because the truth about the accident will probably be known in the penultimate episode of the drama. This is just a guess but I'm sure the picth will be similar
So I was pretty right the one who died is the brother of the male lead, the female lead will surely be accused, her relationship with the family will deteriorate. Now they miss the reasons, just I'd like to see how it's going to evolve between the two leads will the male lead be aware of the female lead's identity in relation to what happened to his brother ?! I will try to trust the writers
Yes, I hope that this drama won't be too heavy on the melo/makjang. The 2 teasers i saw made it seem more like a romantic comedy/dramedy type of series. Then in just this first episode, we are hit with bullying/school violence and suicide. As for the reason the younger brother wants to commit suicide, I think it has to do with his mother and what was in her office:
I think the little brother was the unliscensed driver that committed the hit and run accident that injured the old woman. The newpaper clipping was on the desk of the mother and she kept avoiding the main male lead's questions about it. Plus, after he went missing the mother checks the drawer where her car keys are kept, and she was too relieved when they were there. Then at the hotel, the younger brother told the female lead the reason he wanted to commit suicide was because he killed people and he gave 2 names. I think the younger brother must have taken and driven the mother's car without permission and then hit and injured 2 people and fled the scene both times. My guess is the guilt he felt towards the people hit, along with the guilt he felt towards his mother and the family (since she is a judge and the bro is studying to be a lawyer) caused him to want to commit suicide rather than face everything.
Ist eps was really good. I cried most of it...it was sad to see two young teenagers decide to make a suicide pact because she has been bullied for 2 years in high school ( and we're talking physical bruises) and he has committed some crime that I am guessing killed two others. The last bit especially , was so hard because he took his life and didn't want her to do the same . And the anguish of Chung Ah's mother knowing that her daughter contemplated suicide, seeing someone else's son dead and needing to keep calm to protect her daughter by hiding the truth really got to me.
Seol In Ah was fantastic. There's this sweet warm quality that she brings to the role - her affection for her family , the way she fell in love in 3 seconds on the train , and the emotional scenes at the end - they could not have chosen a better actress.
I think this drama has a lot of potential - I hope this isn't just your average weekender because the 1st episode already dealt with a very real and relevant issue of teenage suicide so prevalent in SK. I am hoping that there'll be proper healing and closure especially for Chung Ah and the boy's family. The romance for Chung Ah and Joon Hwi is gonna be tough - it isn't just going to be the usual interfering MIL ( chung ah's sis has that covered) . The truth that will be covered ( suicide becoming accident ) and subsequently being revealed will have great consequences on the development of their relationship.
I liked Seol In A in Sunny Again Tomorrow, so I'm going to follow this to see how she develops as an actor. She looks a lot better already. Anyways I suspect JH's mom will find out the truth and she'll decide to help cover it up since she wouldn't want her son officially dying from suicide.
This episode was just so sad and Cheung Ah 's mother is just making things worse with all her advice, plus the fact that she hid JK phone in her fridge. I still don't really understand why they just can't tell the truth about what happened? But I don't know the laws in South Korea, however I don't see Cheung Ah as guilty of criminal acts. To me Cheung Ah is not guilty of assisted suicide-JK went into the water all on his own. CH did not help him at all, in fact she took him out of the water and performed CPR to try and save his life. I don't think he actually took any sleeping pills either before he left the hotel room, so she wouldn't be accused of giving him an overdose. Of course, we need an autopsy to be certain of what happened. Now JK mother is suspecting murder, which is worse for Cheung Ah.
Yes. I agree with you. Much better to just tell the truth and deal with the fallout. Since JK and Cheung Ah are minors, I think their names/ photos would not be allowed under the law to be released to the press so CA mother's fear of publicity I think it could be minimized. And yeah, I mean the family could be charged with all kinds of things since the mother is withholding evidence as she has the cell phones in the refrigerator, and Cheung Ah stole evidence when she took the suicide note.
I think the truth may come out soon since the mother of JK already suspects suicide. And I don't think there will be any court trial or jail time for anyone because we know Cheung Ah's older sister will be marrying JK mother's nephew soon and I can't see any wedding happening between those 2 if the bride's sister is the accused killer of the groom's cousin, along with mother of the bride/future mother in law guilty of lying/coverup. I mean, Do Jin's mother already hates Seol Ah just for being poor. So I can't imagine she would be OK with her son marrying into the family that killed her nephew.
I'm having a little trouble handling the big tonal shifts in the drama between the angst and sorrow of Cheungh Ah storyline and the comedy of Seol Ah's storyline. It's very jarring for me when they switch back and forth. From the trailers, I was really expecting a lighter tone throughout. Right now, Seol Ah is an unrepentant self proclaimed gold-digger doing everything she can to marry a rich man. Still, I feel that she wouldn't agree to marry a man she didn't like, even a rich one. I'm not sure it will be love between Do Jin and Seol Ah, but I do think there will be attraction. I'm sure after a few years with a mother-in-law like Do Jin's mom, Seol Ah will be rethinking her ideas that money solves all problems and brings happiness.
So now I am wondering how they will make the romance btwn the OTP possible. I agree @rocher22 that it was a very unique and sweet first meeting. If only it was not overshadowed by the brother's death.... I still want them to have a chance at love because I like the chemistry between the actors and won't want it to go to waste.( in fact she had chemistry with the brother, JK as well ) Plus i cannot take KJY having so many heartbreaking tragic love lines ( 100 Days Husband, Secret Boutique)

It was a cold Monday morning in January. He sat on the stairs and looked at the adjoining living room to his right. He saw an ornament on the floor where the Christmas tree stood a couple of weeks prior. He could still hear the giggling excitement of his kids opening their gifts. He thought about all the great memories that were made this holiday season and every year past, going back to his childhood. He prayed that more memories like this were still ahead of him.
