Have you watched this Omona? What are your thoughts?

I decided to give it a try after hearing good things about Lee Honey's character and I must say I absolutely love Cho Yeon Joo! She's a blast, a weirdo with a bad temper and good fighting skills, she's already promising to be fantastic as the 'new' Kang Mi Na. She's definitely going to rock the life of those terrible Hanju people and I am so here for it.
I've only watched one movie with Lee Honey before but I was very impressed by her perfomance in those two episodes. She managed to play two extremely different characters with ease and made them both endearing.
The only thing I hated was Mi Na's in-laws, they are all horrible persons and I can't wait to see them suffer!!!

Oh and the synopsis is a bit misleading (at least from what we've seen so far) when it says that 'Mi Na was a troublemaker born out of wedlock'. While indeed 'born out of wedlock', she's not a troublemaker but a victim who stays silent when people mistreat and abuse her.

Finally for those who watched The Fiery Priest (I haven't yet), you9;ll get a nice surprise in episode 1 ;)

I haven't watched the Fiery Priest but that would explain the cameos ^^'
Her character reminds me of Hong Cha-Young in Vincenzo but even louder and crazier... totally here for that lol

It is always great to have a woman lead a drama :)
