Synopsis

Although at first unwillingly, Jo and Gong later become the best of sister/brother-in-law. They depend on each other for help, trouble, and fun. Oh Yuhn Soo, Jo's wife, is grateful at the happy relationship, but things go astray when Gong grows a greater affection for Jo. When Gong confesses her feelings for Jo, the two start to grow apart. Although they later end up in the same police department, they try hard to avoid eachother, and Oh starts to realize the reason why. Kim Rae Won is Gong's friend and the son of a rich hotel owner. Although he knows that Gong likes her brother-in-law, he never gives up his feelings for her. Things seem to turn out alright when Gong starts to date Kim and forget about Jo, but her sister Oh dies. The dangerous yet innocent love for her brother-in-law puts Gong in a terrible situation…how is love different in a family?

The beginning of the drama, when Gong is a high school student, is very humorous. The drama is well-written, but if you don't like the unconventional idea of a sister-in-law liking her brother-in-law, you shouldn't watch this drama. Kim Rae Won is portrayed really well, and the character fits him perfectly! worth watching.

Synopsis

“Rosemary” is a drama that portrays an ordinary woman with two adorable children, who has just been informed on her terminal illness. While readjusting her surroundings, the woman becomes more aware of love for her family and is reminded of her modest but happy life. This drama has a trace of genuine human touch in that it gives you an opportunity to sense the importance of life through the eyes of terminally ill woman, where ordinary events are portrayed with beauty and inspiration.

“Rosemary” goes beyond presenting the life of a terminally ill woman. It involves a woman who tacitly prepares for death, and her husband who deeply regrets his past for not having fully expressed his love for her. It also involves an indiscreet young woman who has to take care of the dying woman's children. Through their experiences, “Rosemary” helps us to reminisce on the true meaning of life.
