찬란한 유산 -Brilliant Legacy aka Shining Inheritance

Still watching this but seriously it's good...

the 1st episode itself get my attention. It was great to watch different side of Lee Seung Gi especially after knowing how goofy and happy he was in 1N&2D... I don't know about others but he portrayed the character really well. And for Han Hyo Joo wasn't that bad... comparing to her character in Spring Waltz... I think she's getting better... I mean she's great in Spring Waltz but she make it even great in this drama ^^  ( like how she could cried out so real and look cute sometimes). 

The rating for this drama is getting higher... why? because it's getting better ^^

Go Eun Sung lost everything when her father died. Her wicked stepmother made her and her brother leave the house while the stepmother took the insurance money to live in a luxurious new apartment. Suddenly, her autistic brother, Eun Woo, disappears.

Her grandson on the other hand, absolutely hates Go EunSung.

The Main Cast

Han Hyo Joo plays the kind hearted, Go Eun Sung, who's life is ruined after her stepmother took away everything. She has a father who has died (actually a fake death, he faked it so that the stepmother could collect the insurance money), an autistic brother named Eun Woo, a cruel step-mother, and a step-sister Seung Mi. She is pure and innocent and her personality is what attracted a grandmother to take her in as family. She eventually begins to be a love interest for Sun Woo Hwan.

Pop singer Lee Seung Ki has his first starring drama role. He plays the haughty heir to his grandmother's company. He and Seung Mi (step sister of Go Eun Sung) have a more than friends relationship although he eventually becomes a love interest to Go Eun Sung. 

Bae Soo Bin as Park Jun Se. He is a caring man who falls for Go Eun Sung after finding out of her plight. He helps her to find her brother.

The younger sister of Sun Woo Hwan has a one-sided crush on him.

Moon Chae Won as Yoo Seung Mi. Although not a malevolent character, Seung Mi is on the wrong path due to her mother's behavior. She wants to help Go Eun Sung but she is torn between what is right and what her mother tells her to do. She loves Sun Woo Hwan but is unsure whether he reciprocates.
