Finally getting closer to the end of the Golden

FYI: There are spoilers in this blog. So don't continue if you are planning to watch. I would read this if you have already started and need encouragement to keep going.

I started watching Golden Rainbow back in November 2013. I was excited to see Jung Il Woo in a new drama, but I did not know what I was in for and WHEW!! I tried to stay with it every week watching it but I would find myself falling asleep. The first 12 episodes and really 13, 14, and 15...were kind of boring. It started kind of exciting, A child from the the Golden Group is kidnapped. There is already history between the mother of the child and the grandmother who is the president of this golden group . Everyone appears to be an orphan and is looked down on as such. And  this continues with another bunch or orphans raised by the orphans. Are you confused? But it just so happens that one of the orphans is the kidnapped and thought to be dead granddaughter of the golden group. And of  course  unbeknownst to him Golden Group's black sheep son/grandson falls in love with his long lost 1st cousin. This is so wrong. I really wish I had of know it was going to take the writers of this drama so long to get to the climax right on episode 27. I mean I am a drama watching pro I have stayed up until 5am watching 10 episodes of a 16 or 20 episode drama.. With Golden Rainbow my fanatic drama ways are absent. But early this month (ironically November, 2015) I vowed to finish Golden Rainbow! It took a minute, but I am finally hooked. Although I am very very very worried because I am sure that this jerkface of  fellow orphan brother is going to kill his older orphan brother. BUT I am wondering how the writers were able to keep this drama going so . I don't understand some of the sub plots LIKE they fact that one of the orphans kids is gambling and has been with one of the golden group sons... like is that just to show how much the characters interact with each other?  And they all thought that Man Won and Baek Won were real blood related siblings but they aren't and Man Won loves Baek Won or as they like to say in Kdrama he now sees her as a woman.  I am sorry I love Jung Il Woo after all he was my first kdrama love BUT the guy who plays Man Won, Lee Jae Yoon IS HOT!!! 

Another thing that is funny about this drama is all the problems between the older people. Like this drama is not based on just the 20 somethings. One woman is being black mailed by a gold digger. That is another subplot. There is this uncle always trying to get over, his scheming wife is usually the one who gets it started and his fat son is busy eating.  The Golden Group's other son is a loser. Everyone is a criminal except Baek Won of course who was a police officer and Young Do ( or is it Do Young?) who is a prosecutor. Anyway I gotta get back into it. Episode 27 is going to be a game changer.....
