Hick Kick Through the Roof starring Shin Se Kyung, Seo Shin Ae, and Daniel Choi
The second installment in a beloved series, High Kick Through the Roof is the follow-up to sensationally popular 2007 sitcom Unstoppable High Kick. The first Korean sitcom to be bought for overseas broadcast even before airing, it brings the same witty charm and family shenanigans Monday-to-Friday that drew millions of viewers to its predecessor. Veteran actor Lee Soon Jae returns as the family patriarch and irascible grandfather, while up-and-comers Seo Shin-ae (the adorable kid in Thank You), Daniel Choi (The World They Live In) and Shin Se Kyung (Queen Seon-duk) round out the cast. Perhaps most notably, High Kick Through the Roof lives up to the reputation of the High Kick series as a launching pad for future superstars: Yoon Shi Yoon, lead of the wildly popular Baker King Kim Tak Goo, makes his acting debut here.
After her debt-ridden father runs away, Shin Se Kyung (known in the drama by her real name) takes her younger sister Shin Shin Ae (Seo Shin Ae) and flees to Seoul just ahead of the debt-collectors. They both become maids in the household of Lee Sun Jae, the president of a major company. Having been raised in a remote mountain area, they both have to do some rapid adjustment to the city and their new positions. As they discover a new world, they meet and interact with the household's many members: President Lee's daughter Lee Hyung Kyung (Oh Hyung Kyung), son-in-law Jung Bo Suk, doctor son Lee Ji Hun (Daniel Choi), grand-daughter Jung Hae Ri (Jin Ji Hee), and last but not least, grandson Jung Jun Hyuk (Yoon Shi Yoon). Pop singer AJ, ex-pop singer Hwang Jung Eum, and Julien Kang also play important roles in this endearing series.

I usually don't write reviews at all, but I had to give this drama 3 stars because of the ending. I loved this drama SO MUCH but was left really disappointed at the end :(

I am extremely disappointed in the way they ended the sitcom. Since when is a comedy a melodarama ending with not one but two deaths? Seriously - so many situations were exaggerated and unrealistic, would it kill them to give viewers their happy ending?

But Seriously, What's with the inappropriate laugh track? I'm only up to Ep.10, but the laugh track makes it really unsettling to watch sometimes..otherwise I like it. Worried about the ending though, from reading other reviews.

Did this family have a problem or what! They were so caught up in their own lives they could not see how bad they treated their so called live in (the closet maid)! Yoon Si Yoon was fantastic as were all the actors who portrayed wonderful characters. I was unprepared for the ending! I will have to seek counciling after this show.

The show is really funny. I laughed a lot and i sometimes cried towards the end of the show. The ending pissed me off because it didn't show what happened next. I highly recommend this. But i wish that they would make more episodes.

The show is really good, unstoppable high kick is better though but this is really interesting. I love every moment of the show. Plot is great and funny but seriously the ending kinda pissed me off. I was expecting that though , cuz i read the review but i was hoping that they didnt' have to end it like that . A funny happy ending would have been nice for this show. LOve it till the last moment ( before the ending). I think it's a great show though and I highly recommend this.

While I loved the characters and the majority of the show the ending alone was enough of a turn off for me to give this a one star rating. BUT I couldn't do it because minus the ending it was a really good series.
