Last week’s episode showed Yoon Sae-wa (played by Park Jung-A) finding out that Dong-hae’s (Ji) mother Anna (Do) was the long-lost daughter of Hotel Camellia’s chairman and schemes to take advantage of the situation once again.
KBS weekend drama “My Love My Family,” took second place on the chart for fifth consecutive week as well, after yielding an average viewership rating of 23.9 percent on the survey by TNmS.
The episodes on Saturday and Sunday highlighted housewife Kim Young-hee (Moon Jung-hee) being given a chance to debut as a script writer after being in much pain and looked down on and picked on by her husband for many years.
