Finally have a chance to come back here...

Just want to post this synopsis from SBS...it'll help you understand the next few episodes better...at least the part that will take place in South Africa.

"Jung-woo was abandoned by his birth parents when he was a baby and became friends with Soo-hyun, who became his sweetheart. After rescuing Chairman Jang, he is adopted by him and becomes a bodyguard to the chairman’s son. Jung-woo is reunited with Soo-hyun at Tae-hyuk’s school but even though Soo-hyun loves him, she chooses Tae-hyuk who offers to help her achieve her dream career. So both Tae-hyuk and Soo-hyun go to USA for their studies. Jung-woo is eventually betrayed by Chairman Jang but he is called to Las Vegas by Jackson Lee, a military buddy, who offers him an opportunity to rebuild his life. In Las Vegas, Jung-woo meets Soo-hyun and Tae-hyuk by coincidence. In his line of work as a private bodyguard, Jung-woo saves the life of the king of a small African nation and is asked by the king to rescue his son from the rebels in return for rights to a diamond mine. So Jung-woo heads to Africa, risking his life to claim the mine. Meanwhile, Tae-hyuk and Soo-hyun return to Seogwipo city on Jeju island at Chairman Jang’s request. Tae-hyuk is put in charge of managing a hotel there while Soo-hyun becomes the head of event planning. After gaining control of the diamond mine in African, Jung-woo returns to Jeju and engages in a struggle against chairman Jang and Tae-hyuk… He learns a shocking secret that shakes the foundation of his very existence."

Wow...After reading that last sentence...I'm sure Min Ho is JW's dad.

Episode 8 is pretty cute...but I was afraid for SH...

I would be a lot more worried waking up in some stranger's house than she did.

Okay! Enjoyed Ep. 8 and it went by quickly for me!!

Clickable THUMBS:

Look out Vegas! Here he comes! Hey, how long were they standing there? Until after it got dark???

Jackson takes care of things nicely...do all hotels comp their security this way??? Sweet setup!

The "good old days"? Don't worry, JW...you'll run into her very soon!!!

Meanwhile, back on Jeju TH is looking full of himself as usual!!!

(1) JMH, always stylish!! Check out this purple tie!!

(2) But Mi Ran! Your nose is TOO shiny! Where's your compact, girl??

(3) Another great balcony shot! Love them!

Oops!! Suddenly there's no final M in MGM...it was there before!

Nice shot!

Sorry, this guy doesn't look like an African king!

Look closely: that missing M is visible here!! Why do they do these things? Crazy...

Not a bad gig!

Hey, that's Soo Hyun!!!!!

Oy! Tough day at work, huh?? But wait...look who's here! JW will cheer you up!!

(1) Where am I? This looks a little nicer than my place!!!

(2)

(3) Relax! I was out of scallions and had to make a run to the store!

(4) You!!

I guess I COULD use a little breakfast...especially if you're making it!! Doesn't hurt that you look so good in blue!

Wah! Girl didn't come home last night...oh, here she is looking awfully happy...what's up, SH???

Hmm, Jackson is apparently a good poker player...but watch out because those guys don't look as if they like losing...!

Luv, thanks for the useful little summary from SBS, which confirms a lot of what we've figured out already and lets us know what's ahead!

I'll finish my comments below; had too many pics as usual...

Thanks for the rating. It drops, right? What a pity. Hope it will be better for tonight ep.

i was watching it live... but a few minutes before STS aired, breaking news of the 2 American

(1 of them is Korean) journalist landed in Los Angeles airport after a long flight from North Korea where they

were being held not too long ago... i dunno, it might caught some attention in South Korea when that

news broke because it was a very emotional coverage involving a former President helping them be set free

[Guest Jill4675]

Rest of Ep. 8 ~ Clickable THUMBS:

Well now, who's providing the pics?

Is he Amy's father??? [Amy is the dancer, right? I might have the names confused...]

(1) :blush:

(2) LOL, JW's got a date with SH! JW's got a date with SH!

(3) No big deal...! [yeah, right! ]

(1) Sorry I'm a little late!

(2) Hi there, Jackson! What? Oh, he's a chingu...

(3) Chingu, huh?

The shows add some color and interest to the drama...I like the Vegas backdrop even though I really don't like places like Vegas...!

Don't try this at home!!

I didn't cap it, but there was a shot here where a fly was crawling on the shoulder of his shirt...

Had a lovely time! Thanks! Hasta luego!

Now is there ANYONE who is watching STS who didn't know that this is how this would end??? Predictable but I love it!
