The drama will show the love, growth, and success of four interconnected adults in their twenties.
Ko Eun Sung (Han Hyo Joo) is a prospective chef. She faces difficulties when her father passes away, her stepmother (Kim Mi Sook) takes all of the family assets, and her younger sibling disappears all at once. By a fortuitous opportunity, Eun Sung enters a Jinjin Foods, a food products company, and becomes successor to the founding grandmother’s fortune.
The company founder’s grandson is Sunwoo Hwan (Lee Seung Gi), who falls for Eun Sung. However, her stepsister, Seung Mi (Moon Chae Won) is in love with Hwan.
Jung is Hwan’s imprudent younger sister, who prefers shopping to work. She is carelessly enjoying her frivolous life, while awaiting her arranged marriage to Park Joon Se (Bae Soo Bin), the light-hearted and self-confident owner of a fusion restaurant. However, Jung has to begin putting up a fight for Joon Se’s attention when Eun Sung enters the picture.
Although Eun Sung faces many trials and complications, she overcomes them to succeed in the end.

this is the first time im actually watching a still airing kdrama lol..i usually wait for the whole series to come out and watch it in one go. at first i didnt like it but now its becoming one of my favs. I like the other guy more than the lead character lol...i feel sorry for him because he obviously is gonna be the burn victim!(he's too nice!) maybe its just me but i think he kinda looks like takeshi kanshiro in some angles lol

jun se oppa really reminds me of jihoo sunbae (BOF) .. all the tlc & sincerity that he shows towards eunsung.. hmmm ... and like BOF, i'm sure that eunsung will end up with woo hwan .. (although i dun mind it coz it's lee seung gi..hehehe)
bet seung mi will turn to be evil like her mom, as woo hwan starts to fall for eunsung .. & i can't stand hwan's mom & sis .. really spoilt rich ppl .. good that their grandma tried to teach them their lesson .. hehehe
im at ep 9, hopefully, there will be more focus on hwan + eunsung , coz till now, it's very much focused around eunsung ..
btw, the kid playing as eunsung's bro .. is he special? or really talented ? coz in the drama, he looks very real ...

The kid who play Eun Sung's brother doesnt have the problems in real life like in the drama. He is super talented, he sure convinced me.
I agree with Juzella Jun Se oppa also reminded me of Jihoo from BOF. Also wished that he could end up with Eun Sung, kind of tired of the korean plot where the nice guy doesnt get the girl. But Lee S.K's character is starting to grow on me, even though I live in my bubble that Eun Sung would end up with Jun Se oppa, but in reality (or in this sense in the drama) not going to happen. I truly have high hopes for this drama, it's one of my IT drama after I've finished BOF. Hope to see more viewers who will get their hands on this drama, it sure deserved the attention from fans. Loved Han Hyo Joo after Spring Waltz and is loving her acting more after this serie. And Bae Soo Bin is now officially on my korean actors HOT list.haha

You can watch it at viikii.com...
Actually, most of the videos after Episode 5 do not show up. Viikii crashed about...a week ago? Not sure when exactly, but I have been searching everywhere to watch the videos.
I was too impatient to wait for Viikii to fix their site, sooo...
You can watch the RAW versions (aka no subs) from aja-aja.com via megaupload.com.
Use this link for the RAW videos: http:// aja-aja.com / regular / shining-inheritance
And use this link for the subtitles: http:// www.d-addicts.com / forum / viewtopic_73905.htm
Save/Open the subtitles in notepad and read them as you're watching the videos. I usually open the Internet Explorer, let it take up half of my screen, then let notepad take up the other half.
Alternate link (because megaupload only allows you 72mins of viewing at a time unless you pay to join): http:// v.youku.com/v_playlist/f3259329o1p8.html
^ That link takes you to Episode 9, I believe. The entire site is in Korean, so be patient. If you look to the left of the video, you will see a series of hangul with E01, E02, E03 - etc. These are Shining Inheritance Episodes, just click the one you want to watch. However, beware, that site is kind of slow.
Aaaand I was just on Episode 9 - however, because of the 72mins megaupload rule, I have to use the alternate link and it's barely loaded. *sigh*
I can't find anymore RAWS! If anyone else does, please post a link.
Thanks.
-K
PS: I put spaces in the links so they would show up. I read the AF Entertainment Forum Rules and such, but I don't see where or why we can't post active urls? If I am unintentionally violating any rules, please let me know before I am banned or suspended. I dunno how this works on forums. Thank you. ^^

^Me neither, thanks for the links! I was too impatient so I proceeded with ep 12 and 13 first! =X Now I'm perplexed as to how to clean my brain of those that I've watched and continue with ep 6-11.
I didn't expect much from the show, but surprisingly, it has been rather addictive.

I love Shining Inheritance, such a good show! The Soompi thread has already grown to 2000 posts, the popularity of the show is growing crazily. Each episode is addicting and enjoyable. It's not too melodramatic, but has all good elements of a kdrama.

I only watched the first two episodes and I'm already hooked. I haven't had interest in a Korean Drama ever since Boys Before Flowers. This series is really interesting although the storyline is cliche and old. Btw, the main actress looks very similar to Jandi. Especially in dark lighting.

such a good drama for the summer, LSK and HHJ collaborating very well, hope to see a happy ending, 4 more episodes to go....

Jul 16 2009 2 51 AM
I like the drama its cute. i hated how it took them 10 whole episodes to even get anywhere in the plot but its ok cuz once u get to ep 11 it becomes really interesting. Ive been a fan of Han Hyo Joo since nostop 5 so she was my reason to watch this. and lee seung ki he is adorable on variety shows so i wanted to see how his acting is since its so buzzed. he did not dissappoint. he is really good i love his scenes hes so cute when he becomes awkward around Eung Sung their relationship really is cute. Hwan is such a sweetie
so is Junse i feel so bad for him, i wanna hug him! why does the third wheel have to be so awesome? i also wanted Eun sung to leave hwan for junse
The villain as much as i hate her aka Seung Mi i do give her points she is a good actress she protrayed the evil step sister so well. its my frst time seeing her too so wow she impressed me lol.
the mom. i saw her first n bad family with hee chul. shes makes me hate her but sometimes love her in BL. her little subplot with adjusshi is cute but the way shes bratty is annoying.
the granny!! shes so awesome shen she collapsed i gasped. i didnt wanna see her die.

These last few episodes have been so heavy i decided to wait until the series is complete and watch it straight through because i don't think my heart can take it. I stopped at ep 18.

I watched the ending of ep 24 and now i am freaking out i can't believe they want to take the company away from granny. I hope Junse doesn't join with his father.

I Love this drama. Today I bought the dvd with all 28 episodes of it. What surprises me is that it has English subs. It doesn't say it has subs till I played it. I can't stop watching it over and over again. It's so cute. I"m in love with it . I"m quite addicted to the drama.

i just finished this series today and i highly recommend it!! I was really holding out and didnt want to finish this series so quickly. But i must admit that another great series has come to an end. So far this is the second best series i've seen this year. Of course Boys OVer Flowers was my first best. I have not been so hooked and glued to the computer within the past 2 years.
I don't like the fact that eun sung & hwan were enemies for about 75% of the series and when the stubborn hwan oppa finally express his feelings for eun sung with a kiss, they were not able to stay together. I believe this couple should be recieving awards for their great acting.
The ending of that passionate kiss btw eun sung & hwan was kinda satisfying but of course i wished there was more. I do believe that they will not be separated even if eun sung left to study abroad since the company (thanks to hwan's proposal) will be expanding to New York. I really enjoyed this series to a great extent.

hi, i just wanna say this drama is so sweet and i love the couple who play the main character. Does any one know that lee sung gi is also in the reality show 2N1D (2 Night 1 Day) on KBS2. I recomend that you all wacth him in this show because his so adorable, funny and his nickname in this show is helpless. This show is so funny that can make you laugh untill you cry.

^ Shining Inheritance in GMA-7 (Philippines) starting this Monday night!! I have learned to love Lee Seung Gi after seeing him in Max beer CF with my Kim Sun Ah so I'm gonna watch this for him. He was so cute in the teaser. Han Hyo Joo's hairstyle reminds me of SHK's.

I just finished watching this drama I watched it for almost 3days. I didn't sleep at all hahahaha!
the drama was really nice, i feel bad for Seung Mi since she can't do anything but live like what he mother wants. HwanSung is so adorable I love how Hwan treated Eun Sung day by day eventhough Hwan drags her X))) the ending was really sweet
tsktsk. too bad it will be aired in GMA7 XD Yeah, im biased much. I want it in ABS-CBN since i will not be able to watch it in GMA7
good thing i already finished it.
GAWD. Lee Seunggi & Song Seunghyun really resembles alot PLUS. Han Hyo Joo looked like Song Hye Kyo

It had everything a perfect drama needs to have!
All the actors were extremely good and as much as hated the characters of seung mi and her mum, i really admire their real person because they did SUCH and good job! woohooo!!!
i could watch and rewatch this drama a million times and never be bored^^

This is highly recommended series to watch I finished watching this drama last 2 weeks ago and wanted to find the forum for this to share my experience watching it. The first parts we're a bit boring and I was a bit irritated due to Hwan's behavior but after a few more episode I was loving it. Eun Sung is a very good actress, her crying scenes when she lost her brother and his "father death" was very touching.. The step mom is really very cunning..I want to stab her every time I saw her in teh past episode.
What I like the lost are:
When she was at the pay phone and her step mom called her to tell her that her father died.. this scene held was very intense.
The scene when she and his brother was about to commit suicide standing at the edge of the high rock formation..then her brother out of nowhere said he was happy.. so touching
The scene where Hwan has said sorry for the first time to Eun Sung.. they we're going back to the 2nd branch restaurant
The scene of him kissing her in the hanging bridge..
The meeting of step mom and Eun Sung's dad and her in Grandma's house.
And the last episode when Hwan and Eun Sung we're having their lunch before she goes abroad...
best drama that i have watched so far in 2009 (ones that have ended)
Never expected that i am enjoying Kim Mi Sook (as Baek Sung Hee)'s acting skills that much. She really injects a lot of substance to this drama.
The new pair-up young couple is good too. Can see that their chemistry is there...
Never expect that such a die-hard devoted lover can still be found in this century.
A great one... recommend this to those who yet to watch.

I'm done watching SI three months ago but I still watch GMA 7's primetime telecast every night from Monday to Thursday,though I'm a Kapamilya, because it's refreshing to watch it in our own language. And I noticed that the free fan-subbing videos I viewed in some scenes were translated incorrectly. Peace!
SI is one of the best Korean dramas in 2009. The plot was thrilling and fast-paced,that's why my sister and I finished viewing it for two days. The actors' acting were brilliant and believable. And a drama that is well-suited for all ages' TV viewing because everything was done in strict supervision, high-quality direction and high-regard in values integration.
Lastly, the Hwansung couple's lovey-dovey and touchy-feely bickering was so darn sweet.
