Triple Episode 1
Triple starring Lee Jung Jae, Min Hyo Rin, and Lee Sun Gyun
Reuniting the director (Lee Yoon Jung) and writer (Lee Jung Ah) of The First Shop of Coffee Prince for the first time and featuring a cast of high-profile stars, including movie star Lee Jung Jae and Lee Sun Gyun, better known as "The Voice", Triple is a whimsically compelling look at a group of people who are drawn together by one girl's dream of becoming an figure skating champion. Singer Min Hyo-rin in her acting debut stars along with Yoon Kye-Sang, coming off his raved-about and impressive turn in 2008 drama Who Are You?
After her mother and stepfather are killed in a car crash, talented Lee Haru (Min Hyo-Rin) gives up her pursuit of a figure skating career and goes to live with her father. Five years later, an encounter with an old rival sparks her competitive streak again. Haru decides to move to Seoul to train and stay with her stepbrother, Shin Hwal (Lee Jung-jae), whom she hasn't seen in years.
Hwal (Lee Jung Jae) is less than pleased to find a stepsister he hasn't seen in years appearing on his doorstep, but his roommates, Hae-yoon (Lee Sun Gyun) and Hyun-tae (Yoon Kye-Sang) welcome her whole-heartedly. What Haru doesn't plan on, however, on beginning to develop feelings for her gruff stepbrother, and when her new skating coach (Lee Hana) turns out to be Hwal's ex-wife, all sorts of sparks begin to fly, not just between Hwal and Haru but between all the foursome living in the house.
Combining the trademark exceptional writing and directing of the Coffee Prince team and a soundtrack featuring indie artists such as Tearliner and Zitten, Triple is a funny and addicting drama. One girl's struggle to make her dream come true can change the lives of all around her.

Maybe I am missing something, but it seems that he learned to love his step sister as a daughter not as girlfriend, when he was at her school he told her if there is anything you need, let me know, not as a boyfriend, but as a father figure. When she was washing dishes with one of his partners and they were planning his birthday party he seemed to be jealous because he was taking his place as oppa and he made some smart remark about them looking like father daughter. I loved it and way it ended, she and the young boy were getting really close/.

I really did not like how Stalkers get the women in this one. Haru family should have restraining order on the speed skater and wife was sexually asulted by her husbands friend.

I am not sure why so many seem to be concerned about the "relationship" of step-siblings but I, for one, enjoyed this show. As for the age difference, that too is not so out of the norm today. In fact, when I was a college senior, I dated my best friend's father, an age difference of 20 years, and we had more in common than I had with most of my peers.

I don't like dramas that deal with incestuous relationships whether blood, in law or step. Please look outside the family. I cannot watch this once I read the summary.

Actors were great, story line was not my favorite, but I did enjoy Yoon Kye Sang and Lee Ha Na getting together.

I don't know what it was about this kdrama but it was not my cup of tea at all! The whole stepbrother scenario was too drawn out and the story line had potential but never amounted to much. Yet, there were some endearing qualities about it. The ost was great and it shows a side of characters that is more accessible than other kdramas present their characters to be. Overall, i gave it a 2 1/2 star rating.

I got really tired of little sister's self-centered whining! The speed skater was way too good for her and big brother deserved better treatment as well! I skipped half the episodes because I found sis's behavior so tiresome! The ending is also strange. It is cheerful, but also very ambiguous.

I watched this because of Lee Sun Gyun and couldn't help but notice how little screen time he got. The story line kind of creeped me out about the girl liking her step brother (and yes I know its not that taboo) but also the age difference ... just. Ok well aside from all the creeping crawly things, this was so so.

This drama is much better than I expected. I like how the story was told in a neutral tone. not forced into unrealistic drama plots. The characters display the types of people that you could run into everyday.
