This review may contain spoilers
One of the most interesting intriguing and heartwarming dramas I have seen. It starts out very slowly, takes too long to introduce the characters so hang it there it worth it. This is a story that you just can't believe is happening. It keeps you engaged and interested throughout. Only one flaw in the ( a bit of a spoiler), it would have been more logical if the father was given a case of amnesia, within the story. Other than that the story is full of interest and is very engaging. I just can't believe that someone could be that unscrupulous. Although it a bit dated it is worth watching as one of the best dramas, you won't be disappointed.

The Power of Timing
I first started watching this drama because I was trying to get into longer dramas and as this one had such glowing reviews, I decided to give it a try. Soon it was clear that there was not much to the story aside from cleverly timed cliffhangers.Many things are going on in this drama. There is a love story, there is envy, betrayal, corporate greed, family troubles, but mostly: missed encounters. That pretty much kept this story going and the plotline flowing without anyone important meeting. Simply put, they could not meet. If they did, then everything would be solved right away. For me, that was the only thing that kept this simple and predictable drama going.
As for the main characters, they really tried my patience. Over the years I've watched my share of obnoxious, shallow, and completely out-of-touch male leads, but this one was hard for me to swallow at times. I think back then they pushed this type of character way too much. I love a good redemption story, but these types of characters really grind my gears. As for the female lead, she was the stark opposite. So much that she became bland and boring at times. I dislike characters that just take everything laying down. It's unfortunate when bad things happen, they are out of your control. But if someone comes at you, you are allowed to fight back instead of crying.
Overall if you like a repetitive makjang with plenty of crying, a ruthless stepmother, second male lead syndrome, and more episodes than needed, then prepare to suspend your disbelief, because this drama is for you.

And the music is so repetitive. They use the same little snipets.
*Update*
I finally finished the drama. Damn. I hate dramas that make me want to punch my computer but at the same time they are so good you spend 28+ hours watching it. LOL. It's good guys. Yeah it has it's quirks but I found out it's a makjang haha. Okay. Makes sense.

That made me watch shining inheritance again , drama is really good.
You just have to get to 3rd episode then drama start moving.
I do not like that male lead guy. I find him not charming. Kinda ugly too. Moon chae won is pretty as always.
if you are fan of han hyo joo , this drama is watchable.

The male lead Lee Seung Gi in the drama is pretty decent, I think he just started acting since he is not that good in portraying sad scenes just yet.

long 28 episodes
I did not particularly enjoy this drama as everything was expected and most predictable. I watched just to see the chemistry between the main leading actors. Lee Seung Gi (Hwan Sun Woo) acting left a lot to be desired, perhaps this was one of his early attempted dramas. I noticed that it was right after Shining Inheritance that all of Lee Seung Gi's dramas became very good My Girlfriend Gumiho, King2Hearts etc....As for Han Hyo Joo (Go Eun Sung), she is simply beautiful talented and one cannot find much fault in her acting. Loved her in Reply 911, Always etc.
However this drama Shining Inheritance was pretty mediocre.

По актерам целая россыпь популярных сейчас лиц. Главная героиня не красавица, но очень обаятельная девочка

genre de drama où rien n'est vrai mais où on accroche à tout
"billant legacy"est ce que j'appelle un drama chewing-gum, pas de la grande cuisine mais quand tu as marché dessus tu ne peux plus t'en débarrasser, l’exemple type étant quand même Devil beside you ! ! J'en suis à l'épisode 11 vus, même pas à la moitié, mais je ne peux pas m'empêcher d'y retourner ! Eh bien, ça marche et la mayonnaise finit par prendre !...................................
Je l’ai terminé à marche forcée, finalement j'ai beaucoup aimé ! (bon il y a aussi LSG et l’effet gniiiiiisant que vous imaginez, mais pas que )
Le démarrage est pénible si je devais le revoir je sauterais au moins les 5 premiers épisodes !! Enfin pas le premier mais les 5 suivants ! Et au fur et à mesure ça s'améliore, il y a même une certaine recherche dans les personnages qui sont plus nuancés qu'on aurait pu le craindre au début ! Et, mis à part le couple romantique principal, j'adore particulièrement celui très improbable mais bien rigolo formé par la mère du héros et son majordome !!!
Et puis j'aime bien la fin qui met les choses en place sans forcément nous coller un mariage et tout le tralala, et si vous avez la force et la ténacité de tenir 28 épisodes, vous avez là un drama "classique" qui tient la route et qui ne vous posera pas de questions existentielles !
C'est un de ces bon vieux dramas d'avant que les Coréens se mettent à faire des études sociologiques, avec des fringues et des coiffures pas possibles, des situations improbables qui vous scotchent inexplicablement, un de ces "vieux" dramas dont on pourrait avoir la nostalgie de leur fraîcheur naïve, dépaysante et charmante, finalement !
Je me suis cramponnée, voulant voir l’insupportable Khwan changer enfin ! On sentait quand même que l’acteur n'avait pas encore vraiment d'expérience, et ajouté à une écriture de personnage totalement nulle (aucune nuance, aucune profondeur, en tous cas dans les premiers épisodes )on sent la maladresse. Mais dès qu'il commence à réfléchir et à manifester un peu de sentiment, le potentiel est là et bien là !
Bon je vais arrêter de vous bassiner avec Lee Seung Ki, je l'adore, vous l'avez compris ! Et je lui interdit formellement de s'approcher du moindre bistouri !
J'ai l'impression qu'il aura du mal à sortir de ce genre de personnage, enfin, déjà dans "Korean odyssey" il est égoïste et manipulateur, mais c'est un démon, et il est quand même nettement moins gamin que dans Gu... ou Brillant... Ce que j'aime dans ce dernier c'est que même s'il s'améliore nettement du point de vue de la compréhension des autres et de la compassion, il garde son côté rugueux et épineux, il ne devient pas bisounours du jour au lendemain ! D'ailleurs pareil pour l'héroïne, qui est parfaite, mais pas tout à fait tant que ça quand même, quand sa demi/sœur lui dit qu'elle mourra sans Whan, elle lui répond " Crève, je n'en ai rien à faire !" (enfin c'est la traduction de Dramapassion, et j'ai bien l'impression qu'ils prennent de grandes libertés ! )Les sous-titres de Netflix me semblent un peu plus complets par rapport à la durée des paroles, le mieux restant l'anglais quand il est bon où les dialogues sont moins résumés. Mais le français c'est quand même plus confortable !
