Same old story. Super nice guy with a woman that doesnt deserve him and you have the woman who deserves him but will never get him. The story was too makjang for my taste, I could have dropped it but I have a soft spot for the two leads given that I never saw Stairway To Heaven and most likely wont but I loved the movies of the male lead. Its the classic case of writers writing about subject matter without doing enough research. Empire of Gold is the only drama in which the writers used a backdrop(business) and they actually knew what they were writing about. About Soo Ae not being pretty? I think thats ridiculous but may females might think so but as a guy I find her gorgeous. Summary: Female lead's character was one dimensional. Story not believable.
