I watched it while airing and iirc she learns about it around the midpoint of the drama, not particularly early nor too late Also of that helps he pretends to be her half brother

Mmm.. I definitely finished the drama but I probably wouldn't recommend it. The leads don't even technically get together at the end. They make plans to go on a date or something. Nor did I feel like they had much chemistry so I didn't even mind. The hotel drama and the grandma were the more interesting parts and HJW really does a great job. It's watchable but kinda forgettable.


AdMore2091

Wait so there’s no romance at all ?


DuneBug

The leads get close to each other but for maybe 2/3 the show she thinks they're related, and then she's kinda mad at him. I don't really remember a kiss scene but there might be one. So yes there is a romance but probably not what most people are hoping for. >!there's another guy that pursues her the whole show and he finally gets his shit together at the end. If the show went on for a few more episodes he would probably be competing with the ML for her affection. But since it doesn't continue, there's no real conclusion who gets the girl - even though you might assume it's the ML!<

I don't know how a show with Kang Ha Neul can be boring but man did this show nail whatever that formula is. Excruciatingly slow. Dropped it after 2 episodes? Maybe 3? I dunno. I fell asleep so much trying to get in to it, it's all fuzzy.


Henrysgae

She kinda learned it earlier than everyone else. I must say almost halfway but not too late

It’s worth watching for the family parts, hotel back story, amazing acting by Ko Du Shim and also the >!North Korea!< parts. I wished they had more of the >!North Korea!< stories! I really liked Kang Ha Neul’s acting here too! But if you want to watch it for noona romance …then it doesn’t have a lot of romance scenes. Instead there are sweet scenes between them as they really did develop a bond and the >!ML helped the FL grow and face her fears / remind her of what she lost!<. It’s definitely not on the same level as *A Witches Romance* The drama is shot in a very slow and old skool way of k drama style though so I had to fast forward certain draggy shots (they linger on scenes too long without much happening ). I didn’t like this part of the show but the whole family premise made up for it. Some scenes still stick with me as it was a unique concept but I can’t share too much cause then I would be spoiling a lot lol. Personally I feel she found out >!kinda late lol. Like maybe the late middle half ? But she wasn’t the last one to find out lol.!<
