Efparri, thanks for the head's up! I can't believe that after all the meetings between Mr.Sa /Mak Rye /Geumok that he hasn't figured out that something is amiss! The plot is just getting too ridiculous at this point and according to the Soompi forum, this show goes to 120 episode.
Anyway, I ccouldn't wait for the end and had to go to the Soompi forum to find out.

Re: The End


I cheated, went to the other forum for the ending. Time for me to bail on this one.

For those who are still following this series, we are arriving at a critical period in the storyline. It is helpful to actually see the dialog rather than just read summaries. There may be subtle difference between the translations into Mandarin used by the member in the other forum who summarized the episodes and the translations into English used in the United States.

Since Dish no longer carries KBS World, what was the ending of this show?

Re:


Go to the forum I mentioned earlier in this thread. You posted next below that reply. Some cable carriers are dropping KBSW also. The member of another forum which posts torrents is losing his cable service also so he may be only able to post torrents up to Episode 115. He is up to Episode 90.

From what I have gathered from a search, KBS World is switching to DirecTV as part of a premium package starting August 11, 2013. I could find no information about changes to cable television schedules.

The user in the torrents forum just released the torrents for twenty-five more episodes to bring the total to one hundred fifteen. To save having to search for the other batches of torrents, the user combined all the torrents into one batch between Episode 1 through Episode 115, inclusively.

So far, so good. My cable television provider still carries the KBS World programming. Who knows what will happen when the contract comes up for renewal. There are about six channels with Korean programming. One of them is over the air from MHZ Networks. It is Arirang.

Re:


 I just noticed that my cable television provider has mixed up the episodes. Sometime in the past, they preempted an episode to show a live broadcast. As a consequence, they are off by one episode, The episode divisible by five is now shown on a Monday rather than a Friday. I was watching what should have been Episode 112 today. I noticed that it was actually Episode 115 being shown. I went back to my DVR recording lists and the episode shown last Wednesday was Episode 107, which was correct. The episode shown yesterday was Episode 113. It should have been Episode 111. I am not sure whether they are showing separate episodes later in the day when they are supposed to be showing the repeat of the morning episodes. I will have to change my DVR schedule to record all three showings because I do not have Episodes 116 through 120 elsewhere. I downloaded through Episode 115 from an online source. I would hate to miss the last five episodes since I have been following the series from the beginning.

After reviewing the program guide, it appears that they are showing two episodes back to back this week only. I was only set to record the second episode. I changed my DVR schedule to include both of the episodes this week starting this afternoon. The program guide shows that they are returning to the single episode per day after this week. I'll have to monitor the recordings to see if that is the case. I suspect that the final episode will be shown on Monday, August 19. Still the program guide indicates that the final episode will be shown on August 26, which is when it would have ended if they had not made the changes for this week.

Re:


When I set my DVR to record the afternoon schedule, which apparently was a two episode set, both Episode 114 and Episode 115 were included. So the two episodes tomorrow and Friday should get me through the next to last episode with subtitles. I watched Episodes 110 and 112, which I missed on my DVR, on my home computer.

The last few episodes were ridiculous!


Although I had cheated and knew about the ending via the Soompi forum, I had to follow this drama to the end as I had put so much time into it. Anyway, the last few episodes were just ridiculous. I don't all the episode numbers but in one of the episodes, Geumok still insists she's the daughter of the house even though everyone knows at this point, Samseng is the real daughter. Ridiculous! Who in their right mind would even entertain Geumok at this point? Especially, Korean families which really treasure family/bloodlines? Then, Dr. Bong tells Geumok to leave if she can't stay in the same house with Samseng. Upon hearing this, Mr.Sa then points a gun (taking from Dir. Kim)at Dr. Bong and threatens to shoot him if Geumok is made to leave. We then go on to a flashback scene to the hectic days of the Korean War where they are evacuating and they almost forget Geumok. I can understand some of the pain that Mr. Sa felt but the way he went about it - switching babies, deceit, bribery, murder - was not justified. Anyway, Mr. Sa shoots and then Geumok, gets in the line of fire to save Dr.Bong. Is that supposed to suddenly make everyone forgive Geumok? Also, why is Mr. Sa allowed to take the easy way out? Does he really think that committing suicide would be justice for the murder of Bong Chol? I really felt the writers let a lot of the audience down. Many times, I wanted to scream at the t.v. in disbelief! Where was the justice? Then at the very end, where they are having the birthday party for Samseng/Dongwu's child - why is the image of that evil bastard Mr. Sa present like a fallen hero? He didn't deserve a place with Dr. Bong, Dr. Hwang etc.

My perfect ending would have been, Mr.Sa ends up killing Geumok (the reason why he did all of this in the first place). Mr. Sa rots away in prison and possibly is tortured like Jiseong had been tortured.

Also, what happened to Jiseong? He was practically invisible in the last episodes! All along, we had been made to believe he would be something great but we don't really see that.

The drama that replaced this one "Tv Novel Eunhi" - I watched a few episodes but I'm afraid of getting into another "Tv Novel" if the endings are going to be so lame!
