Baker King, Kim Tak Goo


I have just completed watching this show on cable tv though I have missed quite a few episodes at the start. An excellent show to recommend for any K-drama fans. Kim Tak Goo is a guy whom you will root from the start to the end. His sincerity and kindness touches everyone who knows him. His talent with a keen sense of smell had you in awe as he made wonderful bread one after another.
His determination and persistence in overcoming all odds are commendable and inspiring.

Initially, just reading the synopsis made me yawn because it just seemed so boring, however as 2 colleagues have highly recommended this show to me, so I thought I would just give it a shot and I never regretted it.
I love K-dramas, just like how much I love reading novels, I just feel that I am being transported to another world, free of worries and troubles. But after the bubble broke, you know its just a story. No one would be so kind, so nice and so good in this materialistic world.

Synopsis :
Kim Tak Goo is the eldest son of Goo In Jong, the president of Samhwa Enterprise, a legend in the baking industry. Although he is an extremely talented baker and seemed destined to succeed his father as president, Goo In Jong's family plotted to rob him of his inheritance because he was born to In Jong's mistress. Tak Goo's determination to become number one in the baking industry drives him to rebuild his career from scratch despite the many trials he faces.
